16 Pink Lipsticks for Dark Skin (That Won’t Make You Look Like a Clown)

16 Pink Lipsticks for Dark Skin (That Won’t Make You Look Like …

Hey ya’ll! Have a look at this post on pink lipsticks for dark skin. I chose these based on how often I reach for them, if they are still available, and most importantly, how great they look on me! There are two that are currently out of stock and were limited edition, but I had to include them anyway! I…

Valentia Night Revive Retinol Serum | Thoughts & First Impressions

Retinol is one of those products that need long-term use in order to see the effects of its use (for me anyway). No exception will be made here with the Valentia Night Revive Retinol Serum ($35.00).

J. Cat Beauty Liptitude 24/7 Hydrating Lip Stains Peekaboob, Blow Your Mind

J. Cat Beauty Liptitude 24/7 Hydrating Lip Stains Peekaboob, Blow Your Mind

I love a good lip stain. Whatever is on my lips, I want it to last all day. The J. Cat Beauty Liptitude 24/7 Hydrating Lip Stains ($5.99) certainly do not last all day, but they do leave behind a beautiful stain so that if you want, you can still appear as if you have color on your lips. In…

Great Moisturizer for Oily Skin: Erborian Bamboo Creme Frappee

Great Moisturizer for Oily Skin: Erborian Bamboo Creme Frappee

This moisturizer is great. Can you tell I like it? Sometimes it’s hard to rate a moisturizer, especially if it doesn’t have any multitasking properties. The Erborian Bamboo Creme Frappee ($43.00) is just a moisturizer that moisturizes your skin. Nothing more, nothing less. I like that the brand doesn’t claim that it does some out-of-this-world thing like make wrinkles disappear.…

ColourPop Fall Edit Review (Part 2): Ultra Matte Mama, Ultra Satin Calypso (Gypsy)

So I am sitting here on All Hallows Eve, surfing Netflix for horror movies worth my time (that’s my favorite genre) and I realize that there aren’t very many. The one’s that are worth it, I have already watched… years ago! That has absolutely nothing to do with this post besides that fact that I am watching/listening to a really…

Makeup Revolution Baked Blusher – All I Think About Is You

Makeup Revolution Baked Blusher – All I Think About Is You

I have had the Makeup Revolution Baked Blusher in All I Think About Is You ($5.00) in my stash for some time. I’m not the biggest blush fan because, well, with my skin tone, most of the colors look the same on me. For this reason, if I buy blush, it needs to be seriously pigmented like the Nars blushes…

Has K-Beauty Ruined My Skin?

Has K-Beauty Ruined My Skin?

As ludicrous as that question sounds, I often find myself with that question in the back of my head and sometimes angry and at the front of it. As a product junkie and beauty blogger, I am always trying new… well, everything. New skincare, new hair stuff, new makeup. I don’t have sensitive skin, and it hardly reacts to anything,…

ColourPop Fall Edit Review: Zingara Quad, Bardot Blush (Part 1)

The ColourPop Zingara Quad ($18.00) is part of the beautiful fall collection ColourPop recently released. Now that I have had time to bask in its glory, it’s time for a report. I initially wanted Seeker, Elixir, and Paradox, but saw that as a set, I could get the beautiful Jinxie at a discount so I just went ahead and purchased…

IPKN Calendula Massage Cleansing Cream Review

IPKN Calendula Massage Cleansing Cream Review

The IPKN Calendula Massage Cleansing Cream is a product I wanted to love so bad, but just couldn’t. I got this in a Hautelook flash sale long ago, along with a gel eyeliner from the brand, and was attracted to the claims it made and all of the natural ingredients. Just look at that: celery, broccoli, carrot, tomato… all the…
