February was truly a fun month for makeup! We saw a lot of new releases. As per usual. But last month birthed some really big releases that are still rolling out to stores. Making March out to be an incredibly month already! Before we dive head first into March… I’ve got to break down my […]
Christmas is less than 2 weeks away! Crazy, right? I’ve already started my holiday shopping. Somewhat. I’ve mostly bought makeup for myself so far. Terrible, I know! On the bright side, my Christmas hauling has made it easy to put together a couple gift guides for you. Recently, I added a handful of new makeup […]
Another day, another contour palette! No, we’re not over the contour craze just yet. Tarte recently dropped the new Park Ave Princess Chisel Palette just to remind us that chiseled cheeks are still in. I can dig it! Especially when the palette is this sexy! I was immediately drawn in by the beautiful snakeskin gold […]
We’ve seen a million warm eyeshadow palette releases this year. Literally. Yet I’m still not sick of them for some reason. Warm eyeshadows look good on me. So I’m willing to grab (aka hoard) all of the warm palettes I can get my hands on. Including the new Tarte Tartelette Toasted Eyeshadow Palette that’s now available online […]
Are you ready for fall? ‘Cause it’s time to get ready! Fall is quickly breezing around the corner and I’ve got a simple eye look for you. I grabbed my trusty Juvia’s Place Nubian 2 Eyeshadow Palette and cranked out a natural sunset-inspired look that’s really easy to recreate. You can watch me create this […]
Doing someone else’s makeup can be so much fun! It can also be a great learning experience, too. Last weekend, I gave my best friend, Tiara, a Back to School themed makeover at VBT Beaute Emporium. Unlike myself, my best friend has rather oily skin that she often struggles to keep matte. Naturally, I had to […]
Calling August a busy month would be an understatement! My wonderful best friend, Tiara, recently introduced me to her lovely hair stylist Tiana who was in need of a Makeup Artist for her salon. We met up soon after and within a week I was moving my kit into her salon, VBT Beaute Emporium. Crazy, […]
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 […]
Girls love glitter! Don’t ask me why. We just do. We know it’s annoying. We know it’s craft herpes and never goes away once you get it. But we still love it! I’m pretty sure if you were to cut me right now (please don’t!) I’d bleed out an insane amount of glitter. Especially after […]
Why be basic when you can be a unicorn? The world is going unicorn crazy right now and I’m all for it! Unicorns are magical and majestic. Everything life should be, in my opinion. If I could, I would go around sprinkling glitter and confetti in a unicorn headband, fairy wings and a scepter. Currently, […]
PÜR Cosmetics prides themselves on being the complexion authority. And I almost agree with them. My buddies over at PÜR Cosmetics sent over the 4-in-1 Foundation Stick in 2 shades: Deep and Deeper. They’re not the deepest shades in the range. But they’re the only ones you’d be able to get your hands on in […]
I’m late. I know. But the Smashbox x Vlada MUA Petal Metal Collection is still available and it’s freaking amazing. Perhaps one of the best collections I’ve tried this year. So here I am to swatch and review it for my chocolate skin cuties. Because you certainly need to get your hands on this collection […]
