Things have shifted in my makeup routine. If you’ve watched any of my instagram stories (follow me here!) then you know I now have a very precocious little girl named Eloise. While I still absolutely love makeup, hair, & beauty…I am very short on time, hands, & sleep these days. So easy products are wearing the crown. The Organic Skin Co. let me select some items & also sent a few themselves & I’m pretty excited to share! [Read more…]
Suzanne Organics by Suzanne Somers Skincare & Beauty Favorites
This post has been sponsored by the PRIMP Network. All opinions are my own.
Suzanne Somers was one of my idols growing up. I watched her on tv & read her books. She was always such a positive person- like a ray of sunshine. I’m serious. When I had the opportunity to try some items from her line- I jumped at the chance! She really takes a more natural stance & since I’ve been making a lot of healthy changes in my life- I was extra interested! I have some skincare & makeup from Suzanne Organics to share- all handpicked by me! Keep reading to see it all! [Read more…]

NYE Look Using Mirabella Faerie Products! + Collab!
What are you up to this year for New Year’s Eve? Normally we celebrate in a pretty laid back way- but of course I like my makeup to look FIERCE!
When I think of NYE, I always want to bring out my best features. You’re probably thinking, “Stephanie, shouldn’t that be all the time?” & okay you might have a point. What I mean is that NYE tends to be the closest I get to “clubbing” since we’re such lame 20-somethings. I love the lighting & the glitz- much of which tends to reflect highlighter like the best spotlight ever. Using some items from the Mirabella Beauty Faerie Holiday Collection, I’m going to demo how to really get your glow on & especially make blue eyes pop- because that’s what I love to do.
Revlon PhotoReady Eye Art Lid + Line + Lash Duos Swatches & Review
This post is somewhat embarrassing because it shows my complete lack of control when I really like something. Seriously I just buy almost an entire line…proof in this post as I currently own 8 out of 10. & it is killing me not to make it 10 out of 10. I have a problem.
The Revlon PhotoReady Eye Art Lid + Line + Lash Duos come in 10 shades like I said above & each product is double-ended. Each duo comes with a cream eyeshadow on one side & a glitter on the other. The two colors I don’t have are Fuchsia Flash which is a very pale pink & fuchsia glitter & the other shade is Burnished Bling which I fully intend to pick up when I finally find it in stock! I posted a sneak peak of these on my Instagram here which is a good place to follow me for sneak peeks & deals I find! [Read more…]

I have been having a semi-public battle with my brows long before blogging. I really fight to find that perfect brow balance…& with my personal eyebrows it tends to be tough.

I’ve been using the Milani Brow Fix Brow Kit in Light for years now- & here are two more products to add to my arsenal. Keep reading to see how these Milani products have helped to shape my difficult brows! [Read more…]
Requested: Laura Mercier Effortless Orchid Eye & Lip Tutorial + Video

Recently I asked on my facebook page what kind of tutorials you guys would most like to see & I got some pretty unexpected answers!

I wanted to come up with something really effortless that wouldn’t require a lot of blending or work in general. The Laura Mercier Caviar Stick Eye Colours are perfect for this!

I’m extremely late posting this because I was extremely late finding these! I was practically obsessing & was so scared I’d never be able to find them! If you search back on my blog then you know how much I absolutely adore the Maybelline Color Tattoos so that would have been a tragedy. Luckily I did!

NEW Maybelline Color Tattoo Shades for Summer 2013 Swatches & Review
If you read my post on the new limited edition Maybelline Color Tattoo in Precious Pearl then you knew this post was coming.

I passed on two shades (a yellow & an icy lavender) but I did pick up 5 which you can see below! [Read more…]
