The wood of this tree is often used in smoke houses and in culinary arts. It's also used to create many musical instruments like the violin and the guitar.

*Due to the season and age of the wood chosen for your unique WeWood Timepiece, colors may be darker or lighter (within reason and hue) than the photo.

My Impression: I came across WeWOOD through an ad online when I thought 'Hmm? A wooden watch!' - I contacted WeWOOD and they were amazingly nice and scent me a watch to review the Date Beige watch. First of all the packaging is so crisp and nice coming with it's care instructions and the beloved 'One Watch, One Tree, One Planet which signifies how WeWOOD plants a tree for every purchase of their watches and they have planted many trees! I love to see companies giving back to the environment as we all need trees to make oxygen to breathe it's nice that we keep some around don't you think? Today, things and people can be pretty wasteful so it's nice to see a company embrace being GREEN. As for the watch it has to be one of the most unique, beautifully crafted pieces I've ever seen definitely a conversation piece and a watch collectors dream watch. I've never in my life before seen a wooden watch and when I thought wooden watch I thought 'SPLINTERS!', but that was not the case at all as it was so smooth and comfortable on the wrist. This I believe can be a unisex piece, but when I put it on my wrist it was really loose. I have tiny wrists though for a bigger gal. I had to get the links taken down some, but everything with the exception of the brackets/closures are wood. You can see all of the beautiful grains. It is a thicker piece when looked at from the side which would make me think it would be more of a man's watch, but none the less you do you - if you like bigger watches or odd or unique pieces this is YOUR piece! 

*Please READ CAREFULLY* WeWOOD was kind enough to let me host a giveaway for you lovely readers for a watch just like mine, BUT you have to remember when you are entering my contests when I have a place for 'extra info' that you remember to put your info such as a username/email/tweet link ect. - if your name comes up as a winner and you don't have that then I pick the next winner who does - it's only fair that I can actually see that you are doing the tasks that I ask. Now onto the giveaway!

My Impression: I love the colors from the Stunning & Irresistible Collections. They are so gorgeous. From the creams in Stunning to the Shimmers in Irresistible both have some amazing must have colors to put have in your collection. The yellows Kerry and Darcy are both extremely pigmented and not at all streaky which is what you would typically find in a yellow so if you are looking for a cream stark opaque yellow go with Darcy.. if you want more of a Shimmer to your yellow/gold go with Kerry. My other favorites are Bobbi, Amy, Yana, and Thandie. Those would be the colors I would ordinarily gravitate towards. They all are highly pigmented and I found I could pull of one coat with some of the colors while others required two and I was glad that I did not need a third coat for any of the colors. I got many compliments on the collections as I took a couple weeks testing out all of the colors switching my toe-nails to my nails so that I could feel out which were my favorites. I would have swatched them on my actual nails if I had not had an accident with a potato peeler and cut half of my nail off - only me! I really do love these colors though a beautiful transition into Summer!

Color Tone Cool, Neutral

My Impression: I love the color line up for the PixieDust Summer Collection. All so vibrant and opaque. The texture is very unique in that it is that sandy texture. One thing I've found is that if you want a polish that will stay it is the PixieDust lines because they do not budge once they are dry. They are also unfortunately very hard to remove so keep that in mind also, but if you have a little time and patience to remove the polishes they are gorgeous and I like to paint my toe nails with these colors so that I don't have to do them often. I'm quite rough with walking around and scuffing up my feet so I know that putting them through the text of the PixieDust polish and them coming through unscathed that the formula was outstanding. I love the intensity of the polishes and how when you are in the sun or in certain lights the polish is twinkling like sparkles of sand on the beach.

Jane Iredale Eyeshadow & Blush Review

Jane Iredale Eyeshadow & Blush Review

 EyeShadow in Color 'Brown Sugar' PUREPRESSED EYE SHADOWS

 Our highly pigmented shadows are simple to blend, sensitivity-tested and they stay put for gorgeous, crease-free, long-lasting eye color. 

 THE LOOK elegant to edgy THE FEEL silky smooth 

 Vegan/Gluten Cruelty-Free

PUREPRESSED BLUSH in the color 'Copper Wind'

Create beautiful, flushed cheeks with our mineral blush. Colors so subtle and natural you'll look like you're glowing from the inside out!

THE LOOK luminous THE FEEL airy

My Impression: I have tried many sorts of make-up brands and this has to be one of my favorites when it comes to eye-shadows. I received the pressed eyeshadow trio in the color 'Brown Sugar' and I was impressed by how they would just melt into the skin with that velvet feel. It was easily blended - the colors were opaque - it was just what I wanted in a shadow. The blush I was slightly disappointed in because it says 'Copper Wind' and true it does give off that copper vibe, but it came off on my skin tone more of a flushed look and I was asked by my Father through-out the day if I was having a hot flash as I frequently do, but still I wasn't and it was not really great to have him think so. I've applied with a light and heavy hand and it still shows off more of a flushy color than the peachy/copper id hoped for. Still, the eyeshadows did not let me down and the blush would go great I think with another skin tone as I am very fair complected. The line really impressed be otherwise.
