Although I passed on Fenty’s first Galaxy Palette, when Moroccan Spice came out it just spoke so many things to me! I knew I had to have it! I have been playing in this palette since it came out and just got around to reviewing it. Even though everyone has seen and knows about it now, I still think it’s…

I wasn’t completely sure what I was getting myself into with the Essence Pure Nude Highlighters. I had been drawn to holographic, light-catching highlighters over the summer so I picked up the shades Spacelighter, a “light reflecting rose” and Cosmolighter, a green light reflecting shade.

I never thought that I could wear a brow gel! A couple months back, Milk Makeup released more Kush in our faces with their Kush Fiber Brow Gel. As a fan of the Kush Mascara, I was keen on trying the brow gel, mainly because I was curious about the fibers and how that would work on sparse brows. Well,…

The Make Up For Ever Underpainting Color Correction Palette quickly caught my eye as soon as it came out. This palette was giving me Pro Sculpting Palette vibes but the sales rep in Sephora assured me that this one is different from that one which I have and really like. This one is more matte and is definitely for color-correcting.…

Weightless and sexy are two words that come to mind when I am wearing the Givenchy Le Rouge Mat lipstick in the shade Rouge Stiletto. I used 100 of my Sephora points to pick this baby up and I am so glad I did because I am very impressed with the formula and the red is so vibrant and pretty.

So I have many nail polishes in a shade that looks like this but something about Dior’s Vernis Gel Shine & Long Wear Nail Lacquer in Rouge en Diable called out my name and seduced my beauty senses! This shade is limited edition and with Dior, I know how serious people are about that, so I hopped on this one…

So we need to talk about ColourPop’s complexion products. I had pretty high expectations for them, as ColourPop has rightfully earned that reputation. I purchased the No Filter Concealer in Dark (48), two of the foundations, and two setting powders in the shades Banana and Deep Dark. When you spent $40, ColourPop threw in a free foundation brush.

I have been playing around with the Supergoop 100% Mineral Invincible Setting Powder with SPF45 since the beginning of summer, and I am ready to share my thoughts on it. I bought the powder in the deepest shade (Deep and sometimes referred to as Medium/deep).

I mostly ignored Drunk Elephant’s Anti Pollution Sunshine Serum when it first came out because I didn’t think it was for me. Then I got to thinking: it’s bronze; I’m basically bronze. It’s only going to complement my skin, right? Right I was. Also, I have been on the search for a tinted moisturizer for my skin tone for forever…

I don’t always indulge in Sephora Favorites Kits but the Selfie Kit seemed so practical to me, I just had to try it out. Plus, I could already speak for the wonderfulness that is the Tarte Double Duty Eyeliner. The problem? This is a kit that sells out almost as soon as Sephora releases it! Hopefully, this review of the…

Ulta is having a pretty fabulous sale on their website. Up to 50% off beauty goodies, and not just lame stuff they can’t sell. 40% off the already nicely priced Real Techniques brand is drool-worthy; 50% off Estee Lauder Double Wear Concealer, something I have been wanting to try for a while; 40% off L.A.Girl (I love their concealers). In…

I first encountered the Lorac Illuminating Light Source Primer as part of a set I bought over the holidays. From the moment I put it on my face, I knew this was going to change the way I do my makeup. I often skip primer, especially in the winter, but this primer makes me want to use it all the…

I wish all of the eyeshadow palettes had the formula of the Huda Beauty Mauve Obsessions Palette 👀 My skin type I have oily eyelids and do not use eyeshadow primer for the most part. It’s literally out of pure laziness and lack of time. Surprisingly, I did not even need it with this palette. I experience no creasing throughout…

Now that the calm has settled and people are past the hoopla, I’ve decided to share my Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Picks – what I’ve had my eye on and what I think is worth it! Not gonna lie, I am one of those people that legit will not do something because everyone else is doing it; for some reason things…

Grab a cup of coffee, sit back, and relax because I have a review of a sheet mask that I fancy quite a bit. It’s from the Sasa brand and it’s called the Sasatinnie Pink Diamond Revitalizing Biocellulose Mask. My skin type Oily and imperfect. I have fading dark acne scars and tiny icepick scars on my cheeks. What it’s…

Sometimes I have this image in my head of makeup I want to do on myself, for example, a tropical heat look where I imagine myself on an exotic island with. But then, when I put it on my face, it doesn’t always come together nicely.

I’ve got three more of the Sephora Blush Me Blushes I recently reviewed. I loved it so much I went back for the other shades. At $5 a pop, I can’t imagine anything going wrong. Spoiler alert: it hasn’t! Crazed and Confused – Vibrant Pink (02) All Smiles – Coral (1) Young Love – Deep Rose (04) Top to bottom:…

I am a natural lash type of gal. When Esqido reached out to see if I’d like to try their luxury lashes, PB&J caught my eye! Esqido specializes in mink lashes, but for various reasons, I was more comfortable trying out PB&J, part of their new Unisyn Collection which they describe as “the world’s first true premium synthetic false eyelashes,…
