I just wanted to let everyone know that Sigma's SS197 is back instock!!


It's back after being out of stock for months! For those of you who are interested and would like to have it soon, go order now before they run out again. If you are considering it, but not just sure... I will be posting my review soon, so check back with the Pretty Little Cajun Queen for that. I ordered mine last night along with another of the SS224. The SS197 is a large synthetic flat top kabuki. I'm hoping it will be what I wanted the MAC130 to be. The MAC130 was a total let down because it...

Rose Facial Mist (MAC Fix + Rose) Review & Recipe: Rating: ♥♥♥♥♥


Rose Facial Mist (MAC Fix + Rose): For those of us who were lucky enough to get to try MAC's Fix + Rose and are soooo sad that we have ran out, here's an alternative. Thayers Rose Petal Witch Hazel & Thayers Alcohol Free Cucumber Witch Hazel with Aloe Vera. The ingrediants are so simular. The only two main ingrediants that the Fix + Rose has that the Thayers mixture doesn't have is Green Tea & Matricaria/Camomile Extract. I was a little put off by this, knowing how great these...

Tiffany's Daily Skin Regimen- How To


I have hormonal acne prone skin, that tends to be mostly on the slightly dry side, and is sensitive to any changes I make in skincare or foundation. I have to be very careful with my routine, any change in my products will make my skin freak out causing acne, dryness, or oilyness on my nose and/or in between my eye brows. I'm also in my late 20's, so treatment and prevention go hand in hand as far as skincare is concerned. I treat my acne and skin discolorations. I have a few slight discolored...

Asprin Masks- Review- Rating: ♥♥♥♥♥


The aspirin mask is a life saver for many people including myself. It's a tried and true home remedy for acne, enlarged pores, and redness. Aspirin contains a derivative of salicylic acid and an anti-inflammatory which work wonders for treating these skin problems. I must say that the aspirin masks may not be for everyone. The salicylic acid found in the 6 aspirin that are recommended in the mask recipes are a much more concentrated level than you find in most over the counter...

Acne Free Treatment System Benzoyl Peroxide 2.5%- Rating: ♥♥♥♥♥


This acne 3 step treatment system has been said to be better than ProActive. I can't say whether or not I agree because I never bought the ProActive line. The only reason why is because the AcneFree System works great for me. I feel like why should I buy a more expensive product when the cheaper one works for me? You can purchase this stuff at just about anywhere, CVS, Walgreens ect., Wal-Mart, Target, and SAM's carries it too. It costs about $20 USD, but I bought some at SAM's for...

The first shade is a creamy beige tone that has a finish/texture that is simular to the MAC matte2 shades. The second, is a mid-tone camel brown with a...

China Glaze- Purple Panic (neon) Rating: ♥♥♥


Let's start with the things I love about this polish....The Color!! It is the most vivid, hot fuchsia pink with a slight reflect of a purple undertone. Perfect for a hot, flirty summer nail. I just wish the formula for this polish was as knock-out as the shade is. Aw man, this stuff was a pain in the butt to get right. Purple Panic is a neon shade...

My Summer Mani and Pedi: China Glaze: Rating: ♥♥♥♥♥


I am a sucker for a beautiful bright mani/pedi for the spring and summer months. For the most amazing color selection I turn to China Glaze. It doesn't matter what your favorite shade may be, they are bound to have several that you fall in love with. I like pretty much any color as long as it suits me. I do tend to lean towards blues, purples, pinks, corals, and reds, but I'm easily swayed in any color direction. China Glaze finishes range from a sheer, cream, shimmer, and glitter. I tend to...
