It seems like all of the bloggers and reviewers in the beauty world went nuts over Mac’s Extra Dimension Blush formula when these blushes were released last year. I was trying to taper my hype and wait it out to see if I still wanted it, and I did. Many months after these were released I finally picked one up…

I can’t lie, I wish Sephora would give away a full-size product. I know some folks are really…

I’ve had pretty good success with the Sephora Collection Bright Future line. In fact, I loved their gel concealer and their color corrector wasn’t so bad either. When I saw they were offering a new luminizer, I just had to take a chance on it. The luminizer is offered in three shades, Champagne, Rosé, and Cognac and is $14.00. Playing…
