Diesel Only the Brave for Men

Does your man need a new cologne? This is it. Diesel Only the Brave 'represents the qualities of the brave, symbolized by a fist that tells several stories: Facing forward, the fist evokes power and energy.' Not only the packaging unbelievably unique, but it smells so good.

My husband loves this cologne. It transfers great from day to night, and the bottle is a fun addition to his side of the vanity.

The limited Edition Eau de Toilette 2.5 oz is $65.00. You can find it at Macy's and Diesel Boutiques. Be one of the Brave.

Review & Giveaway - Z Palette

Did you know that you can save money by buying eye shadow and blush pans, minus the packaging? MAC cosmetics offers eyeshadow and blush pans for $11 or $15, as opposed to $14.50 and $18. Stila, Avon, Victoria Secret Beauty, and more, also offer a discounted price for when you buy just the refill. You may ask yourself, "how will I organize all of these pans?" That's what Z Palettes are for.

Zena Shteysel was working as a makeup artist for film and television, and always had to carry around an enormous makeup kit. She realized that several brands only make palettes to fit only their product, which is hard for someone who wants to downsize their makeup collection. To solve it, she designed the Z Palette, which is the "ultimate customizable makeup palette" that helps the 'everyday woman' to get organized, streamlined, eco-friendly and save money.

The Z Palette is genius. It helps you to remain organized while saving money by buying just the pans. It's great for traveling too. You can customize your palette for the blushes and shadows you want for you trip, and its slim and sleek, which makes it easy to pack.

Check out all of the cosmetic brands that offer discounted prices on pans.
