Today’s headsets are so vastly superior, I had a similar amazed reaction when I donned the SOL Republic Tracks On-Ear Headphones, in a dashing race-car red. The sound delivered was crystal clear, and immersive! [Read more…] about SOL Republic Tracks Headphones

Using Stur To Drink Your Water!

I’m not the best when it comes to drinking the right amount of water daily. My husband harassed me about this often, especially when I was pregnant, so the story of how the Stur brand was born really resonated with me. Basically, a concerned father-to-be wanted his wife to drink more water. To entice her to drink more, he paired up with a food scientist to invent Stur, a blend of natural fruit flavors and stevia that can be squeezed into drinking water a glass at a time.
I’ve been loving it myself. So how do you use Stur? Simply count to 10 while squeezing a container into a glass of water. (I do the old 10 Mississippi count I used to use as a kid). Then stir, and you’re ready to drink! The brand offers Honestly Lemonade, Purely Orange Mango, Simply Strawberry, Truly PomeCranberry, Proudly Tea + Lemon, and Only Mint Cucumber.
Stur is calorie-free, carb-free, sugar-free, and makes bland old water taste like a treat!
Retail price for 5 bottles, $19.95!

BRAND WARS: Five Reasons I Love Estee Lauder
This week, the Makeup Wars team is doing something a little different. We’ve each picked a brand to showcase. My pick? Estee Lauder! I’ve even compiled a Best Estee Lauder Products list, for you to peruse!
Firstly, Estee Lauder fanned the flames of my makeup obsession in my early teens. I would wait for a coveted GWP and then strike! I always felt like I had hit a gold mine. So why did I love Estee Lauder at 14, and still love the brand at **ahem** older than 14?
Five Reasons To Love Lauder
1) Breast Cancer Research Foundation. Every year, the brand raises funds to work toward a cure for Breast Cancer in brilliant ways. It’s still October, so don’t forget to think pink!
2) Limited Edition collections. Estee Lauder’s latest limited-edition wares are off the hook!
3) Holiday Gifts! Each year, Estee Lauder offers gift-able beauty accessories that are keepsake quality.
4) GWPS! Estee Lauder offers the most awesome gift with purchase options! In fact, Estee herself was the person who came up with the idea!
5) One Stop Shop! Estee Lauder has always been a brand I can trust for superior color and skincare options. Click on each swatch below to visit a recent Lauder review! Don’t forget to scroll to the bottom, to read about the favorite brands of the entire makeup wars team!

Heavenly Luxe Powder Brush Review, IT Cosmetics!
I’m a recent “friend” of IT Cosmetics, and while I’ve had the opportunity to use many great tools in my time, the quality of this brand’s brushes is simply jaw dropping. [Read more…] about Heavenly Luxe Powder Brush Review, IT Cosmetics!
Happy Valentine’s Day!
Happy Valentine’s Day! Hope your day is filled with lots of love, sweet treats, and maybe a perfume bottle or two. 😉
Still on the hunt for a great gift? Don’t forget my Valentine’s Day Gift Guide! The photo above reminded me of my own lipstick “heart look”. I used Make Up For Ever Rouge Artist Intense lipstick for this fun look. First, I applied 47 all over, and then drew a chunky heart on the inner lip with 9. I used 46 to line the heart shape, to make it stand out. Up close, the heart is obvious, but from a distance this little design made the lips look extra pouty!
