False Lashes Haul – Wholesale Prices

Hi Bellas,

I’m back with another haul video.  This one is all about lashes.  If you’re a makeup artist or lash junkie and need to stock your kit, you definitely need to check out this video.

I have a few go to lashes in my kit – Ardell 109, 110, 120 Demis, Wispies; Red Cherry #747S, Ardell Individual Lashes in Short, Medium, and Long.  I find I use these lashes the most on my clients and they range from really natural to medium dramatic.  My lash stash also contains some other more unusual or super dramatic pairs for those extra special clients.

Rockey Trading is a site I actually found from another YouTuber.  They are a wholesale company that sells items in bulk.  You’ll find everything on there from air fresheners, to Obama Gear, Christmas decorations, to beauty supply.

I go straight to beauty supply.  From their site, I’ve purchased several different items…wigs, mascara, sponges, aprons, and lashes.  They sell each item per the dozen so they’re great for makeup artists.  They also have hair pins, tools and great stuff for hair stylists.  The makeup to be honest is kind of crappy, that’s why I go straight to the lashes.  The good thing about the lash selection is that they have a lot of pairs to choose from.  You’ll find Red Cherry Lashes along with some other random styles.  You’ll definitely find a lot of dupes for popular lash styles from brands like Ardell and even MAC.  They cost approximately $12.95 per dozen, which is $1.08 per pair.  This is a good deal!  Shipping is super fast, mine took 3 days.

Here are some of the styles I picked up (all lashes are $12.95 per dozen):

I always have individual lashes in my kit for brides or clients who want a more natural look.  I picked up Red Cherry Individual lashes in short, medium, and long.

These lashes are very similar to the Ardell #109.  They even have the same number.  This is a staple in my kit for those who want more volume but they don’t want that long, fake lash look.  Great for mothers of brides!
These lashes reminded me of the uber popular MAC #7 lashes.  I wore them on myself and can’t wait to use them on clients.  
This brand is called ICE, but the lashes remind me so much of Ardell 120s.  I love this lash on clients, it just makes them look super sexy and flirty.  This is for clients who don’t mind a little drama.
I don’t use this lash too often, but I had a bride recently who loved the Spikey lash look and this worked great.

You can find these products at www.rockeytrading.com .  Since it’s a wholesale site, there is a $75 minimum purchase.

Hope this helps all you lash lovers out there!  Let me know what you pick up!

‘Fruity Pebbles’ Look

‘Fruity Pebbles’ Look
Today I had some extra time to play with so I did a cut crease (yep instead of going to work early…for shame). Again I used my version of the cut-crease technique rather than the widely used pencil method.I am also tes…

Oh my BOOBS!!!!

Since I’ve never heard anyone say, man I wish my boobs were saggier or droopier…I’ve discovered the “fountain of perk” for your boobs!
It’s not just because I feel like I’ve gotten a boob job since my boobs have gone into “let’s-scare-her-with-how-big-we’ll-get” mode…I do enjoy feeling like my boobs are bigger than their normal smallish size…thanks to my cooking “cupcake in the oven”. (yes, pregnancy is great for the boobs!)
BUT the salesgirl told me that BOOB TUBE by MAMA MIO, is also a great neck firmer…so say good bye to your turkey neck and baggy chin……southwards boobs and and if it lifts boobs and necks, maybe it can give your booty a boost too!
Not only have I been slathering my “girls” in it, but I’ve been covering my neck in BOOB TUBE goodness!
 
This stuff is amazing, and at the rate that I’m applying this all over the girls and my neck….I should double up on bottle purchases…even the sales girl said her hubby puts it on his forehead to keep it looking taught and wrinkle free.
So if you want some miracle in a bottle from everything from your BOOBS to your forehead…get your hands on this stuff!
I bought mine at A Pea In The Pod…but here’s the link to the MAMA MIO website:
I think my boobs and neck will thank me in 15 years, that I helped them out this way! ha ha ha
The fountain of youthful boobs is waiting for you in your local BOOB TUBE BOTTLE! ha ha ha
Because no one wants to look like a lady off of the National Geographic channel that could get her boobs confused with 2 neck ties! 
love and lifted boobies….kandee
PS. I saw it online at www.drugstore.com for $29.00!
SIDENOTE: I DO NOT GET PAID from them or anyone to talk about this stuff…this is my beauty-style blog, so I tell you guys about stuff I’ve discovered that I love!
