Got an itchy, flaky scalp? Sometimes, I do. I mean, it gets bad. Bad to the point where I scratch so much and so hard that I inadvertently create sores in my scalp. I only notice what I have done when I go back to scratch my scalp and come across or rake across a scab. I know, awful. But…

Prior to last year, Arcona was not a brand I had heard of. I was attracted to their product based on the ingredients, which seem on the more natural side. Now, as a person with oily skin, sometimes I am acne prone and tea tree anything is right up my alley. One of the two products I purchased was the…

I wanted my foray into Lipstick Queen to be a worthwhile one, so I picked up the nudes from the Nothing but the Nudes Collection ($24.00). There are three shades in the collection: The Truth, The Whole Truth, and Nothing but the Truth. Now I am a huge…

I’ve previously reviewed two other Blotted Lips from ColourPop ($5.00) and my feelings remain the same on them: conflicted.

Of the three, I probably use On a Stick the most.…

I don’t know what’s going on with the Fiona Stiles makeup line but the brand seems to be…

The Lanolips Tinted Lip Balms ($13.50) first came to my attention via Instagram, where I noticed one of my favorite makeup artists, Ania Milczarczyk, using it all the time. There really didn’t seem to be anything overly special about them, but I love the natural looks she creates and she basically convinced me that I needed these. I settled on…

So I have been pretty excited about the collaboration between Balmain and L’Oreal on their lipstick line. I preordered them from Barneys at the beginning of this month and they have finally arrived, with the exception of one scheduled to be delivered next week. I picked up the shades Confession, Confidence, Domination, Fever, Liberation, and Power. I have some swatches…

Get lost in my gaze with ColourPop’s Ultra Satin Lip in the shade Lost. It’s a gorgeous shade of red, a true red on my pigmented lips (it’s described as a warm red brown). This is one of the most enjoyable red lipsticks I own, and it’s ColourPop so it’s crazy cheap at $6.00.
