April Favorites

I seriously can’t believe tomorrow is the first day of May. This year is flying by…so crazy! This month had a decent number of favorite products so let’s dive in. The first faves of mine were the Tarte Cosmetics Magic Wand brushes…specifically the pink powder, purple contour and aqua blender brushes. They’re all super soft…

Slightly Disappointing April Products

It’s never fun to be disappointed in products I get from Ipsy or Sephora Play. Unfortunately, this month’s disappointing products post is about products from both subscriptions. The first slightly disappointing product is the Peter Thomas Roth Water Drench Hyaluronic Cloud Cream. It wasn’t a bad product…just not amazing. The name of the product makes…

Friday Fun Day: Think Pink

Here we are on the last Friday of April! Crazy, right? For today’s makeup, I went all out with a super pink look! Pink is my favorite color so I wanted to do a monochromatic pink makeup look. My eyes are wearing the Naked Cosmetics loose eyeshadow pigment in Desert Sunset for a neutral pink…

Ride or Die: Foundation

Continuing on with the ride or die mini series, let’s look at my favorite foundation. I would have to say my absolute favorite foundation is the Tarte Amazonian Clay Full Coverage Foundation. I’ve used this one consistently for the last year and I’m obsessed. This foundation is a true full coverage one. But at the…

Brush Washing Tips

No one likes washing their brushes, am I right? I know I always dread gathering all my brushes to wash but sadly it has to be done. For today’s post, I thought I’d give my beauties some tips on washing their brushes: Shoot for weekly washes. If you don’t do it weekly, bacteria builds up…

MOTD: Smoky Flirt

On this rainy day, I thought I’d go for a smoky eye and neutral lip for today’s makeup. My eyes are coated in dark grey shadow for the smoky effect, with my signature black winged liner. On my cheeks, I’m wearing contour and a purple highlighter. My lips are a pale pink for a touch…

Monday Must Have

There are so many amazing skin care products out there. I just discovered this really great face cleanser I wanted to share with you beauties! The H2O Beauty Elements Keep It Fresh Face Cleanser is so fabulous! Not all face cleansers work well but this one definitely does. This one really makes my face feel…

Product Review: Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer

After so much excitement for trying this product, I decided to review this super popular primer from Smashbox. It was…ok. I know a lot of people love it but I don’t love how oily it feels. It says it’s oil free but when I put it on, my skin feels really oily. Unlike most primers,…

Q&A Announcement

Hello beauties! Some of my first followers probably remember a Q&A that I ran a year ago on my blog. One year later, I thought I’d run a new Q&A! Like with the first one, anyone can ask me any beauty-related questions that they want me to answer.  Seriously, whatever makeup or beauty questions you…

Friday Fun Day: Unicorn 🦄

You all probably heard about the Unicorn Frappuccino at Starbucks. Since I work there, I decided to do a unicorn-inspired makeup look to promote it. For my eyes, I carved out my crease with Star Power from Jeffree Star’s Beauty Killer palette, with Expensive on the lower lashline. For the glitter, I used the Makeup…

Ride or Die: Primer

Once a mini series ends, a new one begins! In the new Ride or Die mini series, I will go through my ride or die for each type of product (foundation, primer, etc.) Hope you enjoy! My ride or die primer would have to be the First Aid Beauty Hello FAB Coconut Skin Smoothie Priming…

April Ipsy Reveal

You saw my Sephora Play bag for April…now let’s look at this month’s Ipsy bag! The bag design is MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE! I know I’ve said that about many Ipsy bags but this one is the best design yet. I love the ticket design…it is everything! Now here are my April products: Glamour Dolls Lisa…

April Sephora Play! Box

I got my Sephora Play box early this month and I could not be more thrilled to open it! So let’s jump right into it: The bag, first of all, is really cute! Even though it’s white and will definitely get dirty, I like the message on it and the design is cute. I love…

Monday Must Have

I rarely talk about hair products, especially for someone who has color-treated hair. But when I do talk hair products, you know I mean it because my hair has been through A LOT! I got the Living Proof Full Dry Volume Blast in last month’s Sephora Play box and I am in love with it. …

Product Review: Tony Moly Tomato Mask Sheet

You beauties know how much I love trying different face masks. So when I saw this tomato one from Tony Moly, I snatched it in a second. This mask was…ok. Not great, not bad either. Just ok. The worst thing about this mask was the scent. It smelled like some weird perfumey soap that public…
