Why, yes, this is a review of a masculine fragrance set! Every time I make a beauty purchase and am entitled to samples, I almost always choose fragrance samples. It has kept me from having to purchase a full-sized perfume for years. And if there is a Maison Margiela fragrance sample, please believe I am getting those. The brand is…

Naomi. Grace. Rita. Brooke. What do all of these names have in common? They’re all names of Charlotte Tilbury’s Brow Lift Eyebrow Pencil ($30.00), inspired by the 90s brow. I found that part about this pencil interesting since I wasn’t wearing makeup in the 90s, let alone had brows! They were even more sparse than they are now but on…

I went and got a sample of Drunk Elephant’s $72.00 Virgin Marula Oil from Sephora for the purposes of this comparison review. In this review, I’ll be comparing it to The Ordinary’s Virgin Marula Oil to determine if it’s worth the extra cost. Recall that I wrote a similar review comparing The Ordinary’s Squalane with Biossance’s Squalane and it was…

Calling all sparse brow people! Skinny brow pencils have been around for a long time, and they are great for filling in sparse brows, if not the best product out there that will give you natural looking brows.

I picked up the Sephora Cream Lip Stain Set ($12.00) recently, remembering the full-sized version I picked up and loved. The set comes with four tiny minis.

I have quite a few products to review from The Ordinary so I’ve been polling my audience on social media to find out which reviews they are most interested in. The one that gets the most votes, I post it first. The Lactic Acid 10% + HA 2% won this round, so here’s my review and some before and after pics.…

Sunday Riley has done it again with the Sulfur Acne Treatment Mask! This mask ranks up there with Good Genes and Luna Oil for me! The mask is effective at reducing zits to smithereens (cue Dexter’s Laboratory theme song) and brightening the skin. From what I have been reading about the mask, it’s YMMV, especially if you have dry skin, but…

This post is all about taking the best advantage of the VIB sale Sephora holds every year. The sale comes around twice a year but this particular sale is closest to the holidays – just in time for you to treat yourself, and also get a deal on things you’ve been wanting at the same time. I’m calling this a…
