Primpin ain’t easy…No it ain’t! Especially if you’re into false lashes. I’m lucky enough to have full lashes and with the right mascara, I can easily achieve the look of false lashes. One of these days I’ll try falsies out for fun but normally, I curl my own lashes and use this Marc Jacobs Velvet Noir […]
You might be wondering what lighting powders are and you might be asking yourself why the heck anyone would ever need a whole palette of them. I know. I bought this palette last year and it took me a while to use it because I wasn’t sure how to use it. As you can see, this Hourglass Ambient […]
Liquid Lipsticks have been all the rave for some time now. I jumped on the bandwagon last year just to see what all the fuss was about. I’m not one to like anything other than a creamy lipstick on my lips because my lips are on the dry side. I also can’t imagine pressing my […]
Today is my birthday so I took the day off from work to just stay home and relax. No stress for me today! Tonight, I will be going out to dinner with my husband, mom, and mother-in-law at one of my favorite restaurants. Since it’s a special day, I am going all out with my makeup and wearing my […]
Although highlighting and contouring has become increasingly popular across the beauty space, I only started highlighting and contouring a few months ago.

Can we take a minute and just appreciate Ipsy for all the new brands they turn us on to? This is why I love Ipsy. I usually receive one standout product in my Glam Bag each month. In April, I received the Nudestix Lip + Cheek Pencil in the color Mystic. This is definitely one of the most convenient […]

I can’t remember the specific post or where I saw it but I recall seeing images and reviews of their Lipslique Lipsticks and, as any true beauty or makeup lover out there does, I […]
I know, all you need is another bronzer right? Well I couldn’t help myself when I saw that Guerlain came out with a limited edition bronzing powder for Summer 2016. I have been dying to try Guerlain’s Terracotta bronzer for years. It’s a cult classic. In fact, Guerlain has been making their Terracotta bronzers since the […]
I have medium-dark circles under my eyes so I use concealer to cover them up. The problem is that I also have creases (fine lines / wrinkles) under my eyes. When I put concealer under my eyes, it inevitably sinks into the creases and it ends up making my creases really noticeable. Apply setting powder and […]
I have been trying all kinds of primers lately to manage the various issues I’ve been having with my skin – combination dryness/oiliness, redness, large pores. As I’ve been getting older, a new issue has come onto the scene: under eye dark circles and fine lines. Oh the joys of aging! I have been noticing more and […]
