If you have ever loved a brand for it’s packaging as well as it’s product, then you are going to love Soap and Glory. The brand is all about entertainment! Inspired by the British tabloids, Soap and Glory gives a clever twist to all of its products’ names. For example, you have to have a Sexy Mother Pucker lip plumper in your bag just for conversation! Target has partnered with Soap and Glory and it is a perfect match, they are both fun and value oriented. The line consists of eight products and the price range is from just $2.99 to $24.99.
My faves are the Great Shakes hand cream and the SlimWear anti-cellulite balm for the body. Check out Target or go to Target.com and see for yourself how fun this line is and tell me what you think!

M.A.C. is the go-to cosmetic line for all of your color needs, but once you add a little Fafiness, you are taken to a whole new level of sexy, fly girl status. The Fafi Collection is in stores and I think it is definitely the best M.A.C. collection yet! If you’re not sure who or what a Fafi is, she is an incredibly talented graffiti artist from France and has become an icon in the graffiti world. Fafi has been on the graffiti scene since 1994 and has traveled the world with her thousand renderings of Fafinettes from her brushes and paint cans. Fafi’s style is incredibly sexy by exploring femininity through stereotypes. Her Fafinettes are sexy, fun, flirty, and sometimes aggressive girl characters that have shown their faces on everything from the walls of Fafi’s hometown in Toulouse France, to collaborations with Coca-Cola, LeSportSac, and now M.A.C. cosmetics.
As you can see, we all have a little of a sexy Fafinette in us, and the story behind each character can definitely relate to someone you know. Now, with the Fafi collection from M.A.C., you can express your true Fafiness with this incredible color collection. Each compact, lipstick, eyeshadow, blush, shimmer powder, and gloss has been Fafi-fied with a signature Fafinette and Fafi’s added grafitti touch. The collection is set to hit counters this Wednesday so be the first the experience this sexy, feminine, fun, and girlie collection. I have gotten a sneak preview and my favorite piece is the Verve-Acious compact. It is a pressed iridescent powder with flecks of golden glitter to add the perfect shimmer to any skin tone and give you that summer bronze glow that I so need right now!
Check out maccosmetics.com for all of your Fafi needs, and you can always visit Fafi.net to see all of her designs and pick yourself up a little piece of Fafi!
