Review of Bordello Teeze 20 Platform Boots

Hey there sexy! Let me guess, you spotted the hottest, cutest, and sexiest boots you've ever seen in your life! The Bordello, By Pleaser, Women's Ankle Boots (Teeze-20), and now you are wondering if these oh-so-adorable boots are worth the $70.00 asking price. Unfortunately no one has a review on these shoes, and you certainly do not want to spend that much money without at least knowing a bit more about them.

I'm happy to assist!

I spotted the Bordello, By Pleaser, Women's Ankle Boots (Teeze-20) recently on Amazon.com. I'll admit the price tag nearly sent me away, but seeing that I had a $100 e-certificate that I hadn't used yet, I went ahead and purchased the boots. There sleek sexy appearance likely would have sold me even if I didn't have the certificate.

Appearance:

Bordello, By Pleaser, Women's Ankle Boots (Teeze-20) have a very old fashioned witch hunter look to them, with a sexier modern flair, and a curvier sex kitten shape to them. They are black and white, with a concealed platform.

The tip of the boots are a shiny black material, while the mid-section of the shoe is a nice matte white finish. The very back heel of the boots are the same shiny black material the tip is made of. 3 round black buttons are attached to the sides of the boots which give the boots their modern witch hunters flair. These boots however are anything but Gothic looking.

The other side of the boot contains a zipper which allows you to get them onto your feet easier. The shoes themselves are a medium width. I have a relatively wide foot, and had no problems at all with the width of them.

Normally I wear a size 8.5 sneaker. I bought the Bordello Ankle Boots in a size 9. They are roomy enough, but I really wished for a 9.5, which would have fit much better.

The heel itself sits at a staggering height of 5 and 3/4 inches. The front platform comes in at around 1 inch in height.

When I received the boots in the mail I was ecstatic. They looked as beautiful in person, as they had online.



Comfort:

Bordello, By Pleaser, Women's Ankle Boots take some getting used to. I mean they are seriously the highest pair of shoes I have ever owned, so getting used to them took a bit. After wearing them for a few days in a row though, the comfort of the shoes eventually set in. Basically in order for these shoes to be comfortable, you have to break them in, and the only way to do that, is to wear them!

Walking may take some practice if you are not used to very high heels. I personally have always worn heels, so walking in them came with no issues. They are a bit high, but like I said, walking in them makes it easier over time.

Overall:

Yes it takes a bit of getting used to, but the Bordello, By Pleaser, Women's Ankle Boots are so adorable, that I didn't mind having to wait to break them in. They look sexy, and they'll make you feel sexy. They were worth every cent in my opinion, and you will not be disappointed in them.

Review: Olay Regenerist Advanced Anti-Aging, Micro-Exfoliating Wet Cleansing Cloths

-my post also on AC
Did you know that if you wear makeup daily, and you fail to get every last trace of that makeup off a night before bed, that you are more prone to waking up to break outs?

Hopefully you knew that. If not, now you do.

I began using makeup removers since my teen years, and over the years have found that some removers work like a charm, while others contain an oil base which actually caused more harm to my skin, than they did good (break out city!).

I stuck to one particular non-oil makeup remover for years. This remover however was expensive, and did not come with much formula in its small bottle.

More recently I have found a love in cleansing cloths. Cleansing cloths not only will remove all traces of makeup, but many on the market today have cloths that will remover makeup from your skin, as well as dirt and oil. Besides just that though, they provide a benefit to the skin.

One such product goes to Olay Regenerist Advanced Anti-Aging, Micro-Exfoliating Wet Cleansing Cloths.

These wet cleansing cloths will remove dirt, oil, impurities, and at the same time will leave behind a beneficial formula that will improve your skin by making it smoother both to the touch and visibly. The cloths are strong enough to even remove stubborn waterproof mascara.

My use with Olay Regenerist Advanced Anti-Aging, Micro-Exfoliating Wet Cleansing Cloths, was positive. The cleansing cloths not only removed all traces of makeup, but it left my skin feeling very smooth, clean and refreshed after just one use.

Over time I noticed a subtle difference in my skin tone, but to me the difference was very, very small, so if you buy this one, don't go on expecting miracles as far as curing wrinkles goes.


If you want a really efficient makeup remover than these cleansing cloths are perfect for you. If you are looking for help with minimizing the appearance of wrinkles I'd suggest Cerave, and Estee Lauder's skin care products.

All in all though, Olay Regenerist Advanced Anti-Aging, Micro-Exfoliating Wet Cleansing Cloths are cheap, effective, and leave your skin feeling clean, refreshed and new after just one use

Review of Olay Total Effects 7 in 1 Wet Cleansing Cloths

-My review on AC as well

Olay's wet cleansing cloths are basically my newest addiction. For years I had used standard makeup removal liquids to rid my face of makeup, oil, and dirt. As effective as they were, they were expensive, messy, and you had to buy your own cloths in order to pour the formula onto them and use on your face.

Recently I came across a new makeup removal product that not only removes all traces of oil, dirt and makeup, but Olay's new wet cleansing cloths will also improve your skin over time.

With Olay Total Effects 7 in 1 Wet Cleansing Cloths you get just that. A makeup removal, along with an infused formula with anti aging properties. The cloths will fight 7 signs of aging. They exfoliate the skin for a smoother look, and leave no residue behind.

The promises are all really wonderful, but in order to see how well they really worked, I had to put them to the test.

They come in a package of 30, and I use 2 a day. 1 when I wake up, and 1 to remove all of my makeup before bed.

My Use:

Olay's Total Effects Age Defying Wet Cleansing Clothsdo in fact clean off all traces of makeup, and they even did a wonderful job at removing my mascara and eyeliner without having to excessively rub my eye area.

After rubbing the cloth around my face till all of my makeup was gone, I noticed immediately that the cloth could have used a lot more wet formula. They tend to dry out very quickly while using them, so at times I am forced to use 2 cloths at once.

The scent it leaves behind is fresh, and non-chemical like, so that was nice, and my skin was left feeling very refreshed, clean, and smooth. I could tell the cloths did a great job at cleaning my face just by looking at my skin, and feeling my skin after the formula completely dried.

I've been using these cloths for about 2 weeks now, daily, and I haven't really noticed any difference in the fine lines around my eyes. The anti-aging promise was not really seen as far as results go.

I however love these cloths because they work a lot better than old wet formulas I've used to get makeup off of my face completely.

Overall I recommend them because they work, and they work well. They could have been tweaked with a little more formula, but all in all they get the job done and are a lot cheaper and more effective than many other makeup removal products.

Review My Sexy Shoe: Demonia Charade Black Satin Pin Stripe Platform Maryjane's

-My review also on AC

I'm average size as far as height goes, a solid 5 foot 5. However nothing makes me feel sexier than adding a few inches to my height, and giving off an illusion that my legs flow endlessly. I like the sex appeal it adds, and I like how I feel when I have on platform shoes that will add a few inches to my height.

When I first stumbled upon shoes by Demonia I was in love. I liked the sexy Gothic vibe their shoes gave off, and I liked the style, the added inches, and the overall look of Demonia's.

I came across a pair of shoes called Demonia Charade. There were a few styles to choose from which included checkerboard, plaid, or pinstripe.

Naturally I went with the pinstripe satin finish because they were the only pair that were not too over the top. Although I loved the other choices, the pin stripe satin finish was my favorite.

The shoes are big, they will definitely add a few inches to your overall height. The heel at the back comes in at 4.5 inches, while the very front platform (where you're little toes sit) add a 1.5 inch boost.

The very front of the Demonia Charade Mary Jane's have a really cute garnish, which is a zipper that runs along the front of the shoe. The zipper does not work, its just added to the shoe for a Gothic vibe without going over the top and making them look weird, or ugly.

The satin finish is sexy, and adds a small amount of shine to the shoe.

They weigh a bit, but when they are on my feet I walk without any issues at all. They are well balanced, with a comfortable fit. You will not have to practice walking in these due t the chunky back heel. Thinner heels require a bit of practice, but with these Demonia's all I had to do was slide them on, and go about my usual day to day business.

I am able to wear them for hours and hours and there is no pain, or uncomfortable pinching or pressure points.

For those who want to order them online, I will add that I am a size 8.5 sneaker (USA). I bought these shoes in a size 9, and they fit like a charm.

Overall:

I love them, and consistently get complimented on them. They have a Gothic bad girl vibe to them, with a very alluring and sexy edge. If that is your thing, than I cannot recommend these shoes enough.

Where To Buy:

I picked mine up on Amazon.com for $40.00, and they were worth every penny.

Review My Sexy Shoes: Anne Michelle Checker Trim Buckle Strap Bootie

-Review also on AC

I have a shoe fetish, I will not deny it. I probably have more shoes than is necessary, but I cannot help myself. When I come across a shoe that offers me something that no other pair can, I have to have it.

One of those pairs of shoes happened to catch my eye about 2 weeks ago on Amazon.com called Anne Michelle Checker Trim Buckle Strap Bootie.

What initially attracted me to the booties were their shape. They had such a cute and sexy curve to them at the arch that I could not resist them. Not to mention the fact that the shoes themselves had an adorable added checkered print fabric at the top of them, and two really sexy buckles that run across the top.

A zipper on the side allows me to easily slip them on and off.

Now as beautiful as they looked online, they looked in real life. They were just as cute and sexy in person which made me really happy. I have ordered plenty of shoes online, and not all what you see is what you actually get, so it was nice to see that the Anne Michelle Checker Trim Buckle Strap Bootie shoes matched their product image.

The shoes themselves were really, really comfortable, and my foot fit inside with ease. I'm normally a size 8.5 US shoe size, and I ordered the Anne Michelle Checker Trim Buckle Strap Bootie in a size 9. They fit perfectly, without any issues or discomfort with all day use/walking.

They have a 4 inch heel, which add a nice bit of height which is a plus for those of you whom like adding a bit of inches to your normal height.

One Set Back:

The shoes sadly disappointed me in one aspect. They have plastic soles, and they are extremely slippery no matter what type of surface I am walking on. I wished they would have come with a rubber sole, but it is what it is, and that's plastic.

I had to buy stick on sole slippers which added a rubber traction to he bottom of the shoe. With the sole stickers on they are no longer slippery. I highly, highly recommend that if you want these booties, you also purchase sole stickers which you can find here. Without them, you could really get hurt while wearing these shoes.

Overall:

I like the booties, but hate how slippery they initially were. Why they were not made with rubber soles is beyond me. With that aside though, and the use of foot petals, I do love the shoes. They are cute, classy, sexy, and comfortable and easy to walk in. They are unlike any other pair of booties I've ever seen and I really love them.

Where to Buy:

Amazon.com sells these exact shoes for around $30.00. They come in the ones you see in my added photo (gray), or purple. Both colors are very flattering.

Review of Soap & Glory Glamalot Fragrant Body Spray

-Review also on AC
Soap & Glory lovers hurry on down to Target, the Soap & Glory line yet again has added a new slew of 'to die for' products that fans are surely going to want to get their hands on (or should I say bodies?).

One of the newly released products I managed to pick up about 2 weeks ago, and ever since the two of us have been inseparable. It's called Soap & Glory Glamalot Fragrant Body Spray, and comes in the very humble size of 8.4 ounces, which is just about enough body spray to last half a year; even with daily use.

Glamalot is easy to miss though, but if you take your pretty little time browsing the Soap & Glory shelf at your local Target I am sure you will eventually find it. It comes in a very similar box that their other fragrant body sprays come in. However if you read the boxes carefully you may notice one that says Glamalot, that's the one you want, the one to look for, the newly released love affair!

The bottle itself is a pearl purple color, with the very cute, very nautical Soap & Glory antique texting on it.

Scent:

As far as the scent goes, fans of the original Soap & Glory scent are going to love it. For me personally, nothing by Soap & Glory smells quite as feminine and delicious as the original, however Glamalot has a lot going for it, as it has a very nice hint of the original fragrance in it, with a nice new mix of something that smells floral and sweet. All in all it smells like the original Soap & Glory with a raspberry and rose freshness to it. It's cute, it's sexy, and it is oh-so-addicting!

Last:

Now your average run of the mill body sprays don't ever have much of a long lasting fragrance. Soap & Glory body sprays however separate themselves from the standard run of the mill garbage by delivering a fragrance that is sweet, feminine... andlong lasting!

A few sprays to my jacket/sweater and I was able to detect the sweet notes of Glamalot for hours to come. Although the scent faded from my detection after a few hours, others around me were complimenting the scent. On my jacket, I was able to pick the scent up again the next day, so it definitely has a long lasting zing to it, which in my opinion is easily comparable t a fine perfume.

Overall:

Glamalot is a winner. It gives the original Soap & Glory scent a new refurbished finish which will be appreciated by fans, and new shoppers to the Soap & Gory line. It easily can be compared to perfume as it lasts just as long. Glamalot is a winner in my opinion, and a fragrant body spray I would highly recommend.

A Beautiful White Smile With Colgate Simply White Toothpaste

-My post also on AC
Everyone is on a quest for whiter brighter teeth. I like to use Crest White Strips, but I find that the price is way high, so I buy them sparingly. Listerine strips worked well enough but they were messy, and I ended up ruining more than I actually used. Not to mention that if I did not use them daily, the results quickly vanished.

Toothpaste for the most part has never really gotten my teeth sparkling white, even though hundreds of them will promise whiter teeth, none work, none I have come across anyway.

About 2 months ago though I came across a package of Colgate Simply White Toothpaste. Although I was not confident it would work really well, I went ahead and purchased it because it was on sale, and also because Colgate Simply White Gel Polish worked really, really well. Perhaps the toothpaste would too?

It comes in a cardboard package that makes it look as if it is better than ordinary toothpaste. Inside of the clever package though, you have a standard tube of toothpaste. The marketing was done well, so they get kudos in that department.

The flavor is pretty much what you would expect toothpaste to taste like. There is no odd aftertaste, but there are small abrasive crystals located within the paste that you will notice. This is used to polish the teeth, and get them good and clean without harming your teeth or gums. It's not abrasive as to where it would hurt to brush, so fear not.

So Does It Work? Will it Whiten Teeth?

Not at first.

I did not see a difference at all till about week 4 when I noticed that my teeth did in fact look a shade or two whiter than usual. Seeing that I had not been using any whitening strips, it meant that Colgate Simply White Toothpaste was working as promised.

After 2 months of daily use, I noticed a change, but nothing drastic. The whitening changes I noticed during week 4 is pretty much how it has stayed after 8 weeks of daily use. Nothing improved, but the results never diminished either.

Overall Feelings:

Yes Colgate Simply White Toothpaste works. It will take about a month to see any real results, but with long term use you will notice that your teeth will look a shade or 2 brighter and whiter.

Where To Buy:

I picked this up in the toothpaste isle at my local Target for $3.00. It is located next to regular toothpaste, but placed within the tooth whitening kits and systems. If you are looking to whiten your teeth a bit than I would suggest you give this one a try. It'll take a while, but the results will eventually shine through.
