Canopy Beach Organic Beach Bag Gift Set

Canopy Beach Bags and AccessoriesToday I would like to introduce you to the wonderful company called Canopy Beach Eco Market and their fabulous online store where you can purchase a variety of beach bags, beach totes, eco-friendly sunscreens, organic cotton t-shirts and more! If you love hanging out at the beach, lake, summer house or even at the pool, you need to check out all of the affordable products that Canopy Beach Eco Market sells.

My Review: I received the Canopy Beach Natural Organic Beach Bag Gift Set, an extra Tote Bag and a T-Shirt for my product review. The Natural Organic Beach Bag Gift Set includes an all-natural organic carryall bag with rope handles, the Canopy Beach logo printed on the front and on each side of the bag is a pocket for carrying your smaller items. I have lotion in one and sunglasses in the other and then I filled the center of the bag with my beach necessities. However, you can place your drink and cell phone in those pockets too! The bag also comes with a 4.5 fl. oz. tube of SPF 15 sunscreen, a 4.5 fl. oz. tube of After Sun Relief Cooling Aloe Vera Gel, a glass tumbler cup and a pair of stylish sunglasses made from reclaimed frames with quality UVA protection lenses. This wonderful beach bag gift set sells for $37.50 which is an affordable price for everything that is included. (makes a great gift too).

Beach Bag Accessories and Must-Haves

I also received a large biodegradable beach tote that measures 14″ by 12″ by 4″ in size with 2 nice carrying handles. The front of the tote has the Canopy Beach logo printed on it and there is a large pocket on the front that I like to use it for carrying my books and magazines to the beach and pool. In addition, I received a 100% organic cotton short sleeve crew-neck T-shirt that is super soft and I love wearing it! Along with all of that, I got a bottle of All-Natural Insect Repellent with SPF 30 and a canister of All-Natural Insect Repellent with 15 towelettes that also has SPF 30 protection. Wow!

Overall Impression: I love each and every item I received from Canopy Beach for this review. This is the PERFECT all-you-need beach kit to spend the day at your favorite beach, lake or even at your neighborhood pool! Everything is well-made and I appreciate that each product is eco-friendly. If you need a gift for a beach lover…the beach bag gift set would make the perfect gift!

Eye Shadow Application Tips – How to Enhance Your Eyes

Eye Shadow Application Tips – How to Enhance Your Eyes

Eye Shadow Compacts - Beauty TipsToday I am going to give you a few tips on beauty and cosmetics today, just for fun.

Tip #1 – if you use multiple creams or treatments, you should put them on in order for the best effect.

* Use your cleanser to remove any residual makeup your shower may have missed
* First on is any specific treatment like a Vitamin C oil or eye gel
* Allow that to absorb for a second and then add your targeted serums like lifting or brightening serums or gels
* After that absorbs a second then add your day moisturizing cream with SPF or if you have a separate one, put your moisturizer on, then your sunscreen.
* You can now apply your foundation. Many have the SPF in them as well too. (If you are going out for the evening, you don’t need makeup with SPF in it. I never wear extra chemicals if I don’t have to)
* Then on to the rest of the makeup – blush, eyes, finishing powder, lips

Tip #2 – Enhancing your eyes

For beautiful eyes you can accomplish that quickly with a few tips
* Apply a teeny tiny light coat of foundation or finishing powder to your lids
* Apply the lighter color to your inside lid with a brush and color your entire lid up the the brow
* Choose a slightly darker color and take that across the eye from about the middle of your eye out to the end of your outer lid and slightly up towards the brow, blending nicely with the other color
* Use an darker eyeliner or an eyeshadow with an angled brush in the same color family to enhance your eyelash area, running it all the way across the top and below very lightly (if you have eyes that are close together, only do the outer section of your eye and it will draw them out)
* Apply your mascara to finish and you look Mahvelous, Dahling!

Hope you enjoyed your Two Tips for this Tuesday. Look for them again next week with two new tips.
