Bump-Its

Yes, they do work! Maybe just not as easy for everyone like they portray to be!
So I am going to give you some tips that worked for me because I have really fine hair,
So maybe this may help you to get them to work for you!

Tips:
- Better for updo's
- When doing an updo with a bumpit, bobby pins will be your dearest friend.
- Even though these were meant to trample the horrific teasing, you do
get a far better outcome with the backcombing and hairspray effect.
- What to do with my ratty hair sprayed hair after bumpits?
Use a moisturizing hair conditioner and a hair pick and try
to ease some of the rats out in the shower.
(Never ever tug on tangles!)
- Select the bumpits that are closest to your hair shade so
if it gets exposed it is not really obvious.
- Take caution to taking them out, try to remove hair from the claws gently
You really do not want hair breakage!

Hopefully these tips will help you have a more enjoyable time using this product.

A Cheapskate's Beauty Keepsakes

A Cheapskate's Beauty Keepsakes

Jessie's Girl Eyeshadow Primer - $5.99

This stuff is a life saver! It definitely works at keeping shadow in place all day and is for the girls who can not afford all of the Sephora stuff! I think I got this at rite aid. P.S. I would Highly recommend the liquid crystal lipgloss by Jessie's Girl, The are very neat looking! VERY COOL!

Hard Candy Fortune Lipgloss - $6.00

This stuff is really cute and smells and tastes good, well at least the flavor I have is Gypsy (Pink Lemonade). I found this at Wal-mart where Mary-Kate and Ashley Makeup used to be. I love the mini Magic 8-ball on top of the cap. Super Sweet!





L'oreal Colour Riche, 800, Fairest Nude - $8.95
All I can really say is that it is the best cheap Nude Lipstick I have used so far, If you know of a better one or a great one, hit me with a comment below lovely! Thank you!







Johnson's Baby Creamy Oil, Cocoa & Shea Butter - $4.95
Got really dry skin? Want the softness outcome that you get when you use baby oil, just without the oil? I recommend this tube of magic for your bootay and legs of course! I love this crap and it smells really good too! It is a lotion but is not oily, so you will not have to worry about the greasy-ness all ova tha sofa! If you have oily skin I would recommend against this, you may breakout or just feel like a slippery gross ball!



L'Oreal Sublime Bronze One Day Tinted Gel - $8.99

I would not really call this a self tanner, definitely not. It lasts for only one day, and it does not turn you orange. It also does not have that funky tanner smell. It has a cologne-ish mixed with soap smell?!? I can't really describe it but it is nothing like must funky old self tanner. I recommend this if you are quick and out the door and just want a little more color. It is not bad to use over self tanner either. (Do remember this is a one day tan, I would avoid rainy and/or sweaty days)

Clean & Clear Advantage Acne Spot Treatment - $5.95

This actually works. I rarely ever get pimples but when I do I use this Spot treatment and It works without the painful and red after-effect of popping it. I have noticed it makes the pimple fester then it disappears almost overnight! You can use it up to 3 times daily!

St. Ives Apricot Scrub - $4.29

Even your Momma knows that this cheap scrub does wonders for exfoliating the skin. If you have never used this, shame on you!

David Babaii Bohemian Beach Spray - $9.99
Okay this one is kinda pricey for this teeny tiny bottle, AND it would also be considered a robbery since its just beach spray = Sea salt and water. I guess I pay this annoying price for the yummy fragrance, oh and of course the adorable cruelty free label! LOL I'm horrible, I would not recommend this for cheapskates, but I thought I would throw it in there.






Zilactin-L Cold Sore Liquid - $7.99
So if your one of the 80% of people who get cold sores, you need to check this stuff out. If your the other %10 or just don't get them screw you. Anyways, No there has not been a miraculous cure or magic treatment for them, DO not waste your money on Abreva BTW, BUT this stuff does speed up the stages a little bit. I have noticed a faster heal time than normal anyway. It is foul tasting, smelly and it stings. But hey if it saves me 2-3 days of the pain and peer torture why the heck not? (Tip: Rub a match on the spot when you feel it coming but it is not there yet, very rarely it can avoid it coming completely, but overall it will at least prolong the sore from coming for a couple of hours-day. Good luck finding a match lol). This stuff is hard to come by now a days! Put yo Googles on!

Bonus: Expensive but money well spent!
Unker's Medicated Salve - 7 oz $11.45
This stuff works wonders, my mom used to put it on my chest when I had a bad cough or on my aching muscles! From recent googling I have found that this stuff works on tons of things!
Used for: sinus & chest congestion, arthritis pains, sore throats, bug sting and bites, colds and flus, psoriasis, joint pain, burns, sore muscles, dry chapped skin, shingles, and sport injuries. It burns so good! This stuff can be hard to come by also!




Note: I have dry skin even in the summer time, I am not a sweaty person, I do not sweat a lot at all so you may not get the results I do from some of these products.
