    Nars Soft Matte Concealer in Cafe: A Photo Tutorial and Review

    Nars Soft Matte Concealer in Cafe: A Photo Tutorial and Review

    I’ve been working with the Nars Soft Matte Concealer ($30.00) for a while now and I have some pretty positive thoughts on it! The name of the concealer is super accurate because it is very soft, and very matte, which I can appreciate as someone with pretty prominent eye bags. Check out this post on the swatches for dark skin, where…

    Estee Lauder Pure Envy Liquid Lip Potion Extreme Nude

    Estee Lauder Pure Envy Liquid Lip Potion Extreme Nude

    The Estee Lauder Pure Envy Liquid Lip Potion (regularly $32.00 but on sale for $16.00) is definitely worth a try! I noticed these on sale a few weeks ago, and snagged the shade Extreme Nude, which at first sounds off-putting, but it’s actually very pretty. It’s a pinky-beige (on my skin tone) and is absolutely beautiful on my skin tone.…

    Review of Bravura 10% Lactic Acid and a Homemade Toner Mist Using The …

    I have had the Bravura Lactic Acid 10% for so long. I would use it intermittently because I just couldn’t get excited about it. I used it about five times before I totally started ignoring it. In the end, I found a magnificent use for it! My skin type Oily, acne scars on cheeks and a bit on the chin.…

    Preview: Anastasia Beverly Hills Subculture Palette | Photos | Swatches (on Dark Skin)

    I was on the fence about whether or not to buy the Anastasia Beverly Hills Subculture Palette. I had read so many different reviews on what it was like to work with this palette. I ultimately decided to get it because it sounded like my beloved Nars Loaded Palette as far as how powdery these were said to be and also…

    Review: Ren GlycoLactic Radiance Renewal Mask

    Review: Ren GlycoLactic Radiance Renewal Mask

    The Ren GlycoLactic Radiance Renewal Mask really impressed me. It’s one of the products I picked up when I went to England last year, and has become a staple mask when I pamper myself. I made a habit of giving myself an at-home facial every weekend shortly after I purchased this mask. I’ve been slacking on that front lately, but…

    Review: Banobagi Vita Genic Jelly Sheet Masks

    Sheet masks are just sheet masks right? They provide moisture for the most part and sometimes a bit of brightening. I find that lately, a lot of them sort of blend in after a while as far as blowing my mind, but from time to time, there are a few that make me raise my eyebrows and nod my head…
