REVIEW: 2015 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport SE



Hello lovelies! So you are probably wondering why there is a photo of a car instead of an eyeshadow palette or tube of lipstick in my post. Well today I will be changing it up a little by reviewing an awesome automobile instead of beauty products! I promise you will love this as much as I do. Keep reading...

So I was fortunate enough to be able to test drive this brand new 2015 model Mitsubishi Outlander Sport SE for an entire week! *Jumps for joy* I mean who wouldn't be thrilled to have a new car for the week? Personally, I have never driven a Mitsubishi ever so this was going to be a first. One of my friends and her entire family drives Mitsubishi's, so I figure there is a clear reason behind this addiction? Prior to receiving the vehicle, I had done a little research on my own to get a little insight of this car and what it has to offer. I was shocked by all the amazing features this crossover came with and super anxious to take this for a ride!


5 Seater - 4 cylinder engine - FWD (Front Wheel Drive) - 148 Horsepower



Fast-key passive entry system - no digging for keys anymore! Just a push of a button and the door opens... Every mom knows the misery of digging through a messy purse for her keys... not anymore!



Sleek modern designed shift knob with Tiptronic for faster and more performance! Hey who said you can't drive a crossover like a race car? ha ha ~Vroom Vroom!



710W Rockford Fosgate Premium Sound System w/ 9 speakers.
6.1" Touchscreen Display. Psssst! Loving Sirium XM...



Sportronic® Steering wheel with audio control options. No need to reach over anymore, all the options are right in front of you!



Beautiful Panoramic Glass Roof with LED illumination going straight across.



Spacious trunk space with 10 inch unbreakable subwoofer.



60/40 split fold-down tear seats for extra storage space.



These were my top favorite features from this car...
  • 6.1" Touchscreen display w,Rockford Fosgate premium sound system (Sirius XM, AM/FM/CD/MP3)
  • FUSE Hands-Free Link System with Bluetooth
  • Rearview Camera System
  • One-Touch Start/Stop Engine Switch
  • Panoramic Glass Roof w/ LED Illumination
  • Fuel Economy (25 city/ 32 highway)
  • 7 Airbags total with side curtain airbags
  • Heated Driver & Front Passenger Seats
  • Super-wide High Intensity Discharge (HID) headlights + Fog Lights
  • Fast-key passive entry system with panic feature
  • Foldable back seats for more trunk storage
  • USB connection for audio and cables
  • Eco Drive option for fuel efficiency
Sticker price on this model with premium options is listed for
(MSRP) $25,745.00

Not bad compared to what you usually get for that price? A Toyota Camry? Honda Accord? Kia Optima? Most Crossover SUV's start in the mid $20k and up. I found this quite a deal! Ton of premium options loaded into a $25k car! I'll take it!



My awesome kids that came back from a LEGO event loving this car more than I did... PRICELESS! :)

Overall, I had an amazing one week adventure with this vehicle and highly recommend it to anyone in need of a fuel efficient car that's not too big but spacious at the same time. Preferably I would need a bigger vehicle for the amount of heads in my household but this wasn't bad for us either. The drive was smooth sailing and the options blew my mind. Felt a little *fancy* in my Outlander Sport. Go out and test drive a Mitsubishi and see for yourself! Experience is everything!

REVIEW: Dermalogica Daily Microfoliant



Today, I will be sharing with you one of my newly discovered products that I can't stop loving enough. You guys ready to see what this stuff is all about?

Dermalogica's Daily Microfoliant is a rice-based powder exfoliant that is activated upon contact with water. Pretty neat huh? Probably the first time trying a powder based exfoliator. It releases ingredients like Papain, Salicylic Acid, and Rice Enzymes to help lift dead skin cells for a brighter, luminous skin.

"Our unique Skin Brightening Complex helps to balance uneven skin pigmentation while a super-soothing blend of Green Tea, Ginkgo and Colloidal Oatmeal helps to calm the skin, leaving it extraordinarily clear and refreshed."



Step by Step instructions: The Art of Daily Microfoliant! Easy breezy...



There are two holes where the product dispenses from and makes it easy to not pour the entire bottle. It happens... accidents happen. :)



Step 1: Pour a small amount into palm of hands.


Step 2: Add a little droplets of water to get a nice wet consistency going.


Step 3: Mix the product with your two hands and massage your skin for one minute.


Step 4: Rinse off with water and towel dry your skin. Follow up with your skin care routine.




Pros: Gentle, removes dead skin cells, formulated w/o artificial colors & fragrances.

Cons: Only sold online and professional beauty shops/salon, the price point.

Price: $52 (2.6oz)

Where to buy: www.dermalogica.com

My thoughts: Dermalogica really blew me away with this product. Being a huge exfoliant lover, I figured this would be on par with any other brands out there. I was wrong, it is beyond "nice"... the product is superior and unbelievable. My skin felt so refreshed and soft like a baby's bottom! You can definitely tell that my skin brightened up by a few tones and looks more youthful and fresh. I love pairing this with my Borghese Fango Active Mud Mask right after for a complete full on luxury facial treatment. The fact that it is gentle enough to use daily, I am giving it 5 stars! Most exfoliant's are meant to use 2-3x week. This almost feels like a gentle exfoliating face wash that gives a smooth clean finish afterwards. I can proudly claim this product to be a Holy Grail status. Couldn't imagine my skincare regimen without it. It's that good! Highly recommend this to anyone looking for a great gentle exfoliator for daily use.
