Lash Sensational vs. Lash Sensational Luscious

Has there been a drugstore mascara more hyped than the Maybelline Lash Sensational? It’s a holy grail for many and considering how affordable it is, I had to try it!

May Favorites

Unlike most months, May hasn't seemed to fly by! It started with my final exams, then a glorious week of relaxation, and then my summer job started up with even longer hours than usual. Of course, being busy never stopped me from finding new things to enjoy--if anything it leads me to splurging because I've worked so hard. So here are all of the things I've been loving this month!

Review: Fortune Favours the Brave palette by Makeup Revolution

Makeup Revolution’s Fortune Favours the Brave palette is a collaboration with British Beauty Blogger consisting of thirty eyeshadows in a variety of colors and finishes, including some mattes, shimmers, satins, and marbled shadows!

May Collective Haul

Over the past month or so I've been making a lot of little beauty purchases--an online order here, a drugstore purchase there--and I noticed it's all been adding up! Often I'll buy a product and like it, but never get around to doing a full review on it so I figured this would be a good way to share my thoughts about my recent purchases!

Adding a Pop of Color

Lately I’ve been feeling more adventurous with my make-up and I think that is due to the changing weather and the discovery/rediscovery of some more colorful products!

The AM/PM Beauty Tag

As some of you may know I always love a good tag post, whether it's reading or writing them. So big thanks to the lovely Becki from beautyandthebrunette.co.uk for tagging me to do the AM / PM beauty tag!

May 2016 Ipsy Bag Review and Swatches

Even though this is only my second month of receiving an Ipsy bag, I was eagerly awaiting its arrival and hoping it would be as good as the last one!

April/May Empties and Reviews

I’ll confess: I’m a hoarder. I’ve been known to keep mascaras for a year after their expiration dates “just in case”.

Recently I decided to reorganize my make-up so I also tested each product and got rid of anything that seemed old or used up. Therefore a lot of these empties are not entirely empty, but rather products that I’m done with.

Drugstore Haul with Swatches

 

Now that one of my summer jobs has started and my week of free time is over, I decided to treat myself to a little drugstore splurge! I picked up quite a few things that have been on my list for a while and I’m really happy with my purchases.

Thoughts on the MAC Vibe Tribe Controversy

I have been debating writing this post for about a week now, but after seeing so much controversy over MAC’s new Vibe Tribe collection I decided to share my thoughts on the collection and the culture appropriation debate.

Review: Maybelline the Nudes Palette

With all of the neutral palettes available at the drugstore, I decided to try one out for myself! The one that caught my eye the most is the Maybelline The Nudes palette, which includes a dozen shades in a variety of finishes. I’ve put this palette to the test and can’t wait to tell you my thoughts!
