We need to have a talk about lipliner. I feel like this can be a polarizing topic in the beauty world- either you swear by it or you totally don’t get or want it. I go through phases with lip liners but that’s because I’m picky. I admit it- no shame here. For me to say that for a year I’ve had the same favorite line for the formula, color, & longevity is a huge deal for someone finicky like me. You’ve got to keep reading to see swatches & review of the must-have It Cosmetics Your Lips But Better Waterproof Lip Liner Stains! [Read more…]

When I was perusing the Colour Pop website for the first time all I knew is that I was in a buying mood. I bought a lot! The Colour Pop Fetch Please Collection is the only set I purchased though so I figured I’d start there!

I’m a big fan of the Maybelline Color Sensational lipsticks & when I saw the new shades in the Rebel Bloom Collection I was sold.

Matte lip products are still having a serious moment. I’ve been promising a big matte lipstick post for some time now but I just wasn’t quite ready yet. & now I am! Basically I wanted this post to be BIG. I’m talking huge. Because I love me some matte lips!

Spring is the time of year when I actually go outside. This might sound strange to you but I’m actually being serious. Winter is cold. Summer is hot. Spring is that sweet season in between where I actually like to go out & enjoy the sunshine. During spring I really like to reach for products that look naturally beautiful but also some multi-tasking. Check out my look & ideas using Glo Minerals here!
The Urban Decay Full Frontal Lipstick Stash came out quite awhile back…possibly for the holidays? It is actually still available here at Macy’s right now so I thought I’d give you the down & dirty on it. For some reason I completely resisted the Urban Decay Revolution Lipstick phenonminon. Everyone seemed to have & love them but then I just…didn’t buy them. I sure bought everything else though. I figured I’d get around to them & now that I have I’m ready to share with you what I think!

Maybelline has long been a go-to brand for me when seeking out drugstore lipsticks. I have 7 of the 10 shades to share with you today & I’ve been wearing them for months. When they first came out there was an intense craze (myself included) & I picked up the shades I thought were either most original or that I figured I’d wear the most. Craving Coral, Ravishing Rose, & Nude Embrace were the shades that didn’t make the cut. Without further interruption I give you my thoughts & swatches of the Maybelline Creamy Matte Sensational Lip Colors in Daringly Nude, Touch of Spice, Lust for Blush, Faint for Fuchsia, Mesmerizing Magenta, Siren in Scarlet, & Divine Wine.

Each year when I pull together my January Beauty Favorites they are mainly about ease of use. Because IMATS LA has been in January the past few years most of my products are geared towards travel! This year, however, I spent half my month there & nearly half my January back here at home. Sick as a dog. Like so sick. It was awful. So prepare yourself for a mix of travel-friendly items & I’m-so-sick-why-is-this-happening products as well! [Read more…]
