You know something is good when it’s always sold out! I’ve been seeing the Milani Strobelight Instant Glow Powders all over Instagram for months. But, sadly, couldn’t try them because they’re so dang hard to find. Almost impossible! Finding a store that carries Milani is already a struggle.

Finding a good foundation for dry skin can be a bit tricky. You’re leery of matte foundations because they can be drying and make you look casket sharp. Full coverage foundations can be iffy too. They often get cakey and leave you looking like Jim Carey in the Mask. Minus the green, of course! So […]
