I love a good mascara and Lancome is definitely a leader in the market. After trying and loving a sample of Monsieur Big, I decided to buy the full-sized. I was delighted when I found a set in Nordstrom that had the full-size Monsieur Big and a sample sized waterproof version of Monsieur Big. I don’t currently see that set…

I reupped my Function of Beauty hair products this past September and wanted to report that I am still loving their products. I recently transitioned from natural to relaxed hair and my hair is still loving the formula. You can revisit my review of the shampoo and conditioner here.

Many months ago, I noticed a strange phenomenon: I was nearly out of all of my moisturizers! So I quickly set a budget and went looking.

It was so different from any other blush I had and really showed me that all blushes don’t have to look the same on me. After proof of that revelation, I really got into blush. Since then, I now…

I have stood in a Black Friday line once in my life and that’s about all it took to get me to never do it again. Must have been more than ten years ago. I’ve found that the same stuff is available online, from the comfort of your warm, cozy home, and sometimes on Thanksgiving Day! Here are interesting finds…

Blush was my least favorite color cosmetic until I found the Make Up For Ever Artist Shadow in Eggplant. Yep, you read that right. With fall completely underway, I thought this was a good time to tell you all about the product that set me off into my lightweight addiction with blush. I was in the massive Sephora in NYC…

I first saw the Pat McGrath Lip Fetish Astral Lip Balm on Instagram. Of course, the lips didn’t look anything like mine, but it was a live video and I thought how could this not look good on me? I am glad I took a chance and picked it up! I picked up the shade Pink Astral in concert with…
