    Is Makeup Revolution Luxury Banana Powder a Ben Nye Banana Powder Dupe?

    I am  in love with Ben Nye Banana Powder. Strangely, I haven’t reviewed it. A product already having so many reviews has never stopped me from reviewing it, but Ben Nye’s banana powder has a lot of reviews (I have Topaz too but it’s too orange for me and I hate it). One kind of meh thing about Ben Nye’s…

    A Rundown of Squalane and a Review of The Ordinary 100% Plant-Derived Squalane

    A Rundown of Squalane and a Review of The Ordinary 100% Plant-Derived Squalane

    I became curious about squalane when I saw Biossance (100 ml/3.38 fl. oz.) selling theirs for $58.00 (works out to $17.16/fl. oz.) and thought what’s up with squalane?! I looked around and also saw the one from Peter Thomas Roth  (30 ml/1 fl. oz.)for $38.00 and Indie Lee (30 ml/1 fl. oz.) retailing for $32.00. I certainly noticed that The Ordinary 100% Plant-Derived Squalane…

    Giorgio Armani Lip Magnet Liquid Lipstick – 506 (Fusion)

    Giorgio Armani Lip Magnet Liquid Lipstick – 506 (Fusion)

    When the Giorgio Armani Lip Magnets ($38.00) came out, people seemed really into them. I held off because they’re pricey, I am trying to be more cautious of  over-hyped products, and I was just really unsure about the colors. Also, it’s not like I need another liquid lipstick but whatevs. I love the Maestro Fusion Foundation and the Eye Tints…

    Review: Nars Loaded Eyeshadow Palette

    Review: Nars Loaded Eyeshadow Palette

    The NARS Loaded Eyeshadow Palette ($59.00) is a very warm palette and it’s very brown — almost boring you can say, but that’s the reason I bought it. Nars describes it as neutral, and ok, I accept that, but it’s also quite warm. I wanted something fresh and new for more natural looks for my 9-5. A couple of things…

    Sunday Riley Blue Moon Tranquility Cleansing Balm | Review

    This review has sort of been a long time coming. Mainly because I have been trying to get myself to love this stuff, but alas! The Sunday Riley Blue Moon Tranquility Cleansing Balm has some real issues I just couldn’t overlook. To top that off, the joy factor is pretty low on this on too. My skin type Oily What…

    Review: ColourPop Blotted Lips Deja Vu, Lexi

    Review: ColourPop Blotted Lips Deja Vu, Lexi

    ColourPop Blotted Lips ($5.00) are supposed to be a sheer matte formula lipstick that leaves a light-to-medium tint on the lips. What an accurate description! When I first heard about Blotted Lips, I thought they were nothing more than their lippie stix in a smaller package. Nope! I settled on Lexi, a cool-toned red, and Deja Vu a pink-nude. Top: Deja Vu;…

    Nars Banc de Sable | Swatches

    I recently took a gander in Sephora and saw the highly talked about Nars Banc de Sable highlighter palette ($49.00). Apparently, Banc de Sable is translated as “sand bank” which is really surprising because I thought it was going to be something more provocative. Nonetheless, here are the swatches!

    Hask Greek Yogurt Hydrating Collection

    Hask Greek Yogurt Hydrating Collection

    Innovation. That word comes to mind when I think of the Hask Greek Yogurt Hydrating Collection. When I squeezed the product out of the tube, I was really surprised to see – literally – the dual product come out of the tube. I’ve never seen anything like it, and I have gone through a lot of hair products. Check out http://haskgreekyogurt.com/…
