New Year, New Stuff! What’s In My Sephora Cart?

New Year, New Stuff! What’s In My Sephora Cart?

New year, new stuff! I’ve got a gigantic Sephora cart I need to sort out. I’ve been eyeing quite a few products in the past couple of months; some that go back and forth between my cart and wish list. But if there’s one thing that’s certain, everything always makes it to my door, in the end! Here are a…

Lancome Long Time No Shine Loose Setting Powder in Deep

Lancome Long Time No Shine Loose Setting Powder in Deep

I always get excited when I see a new setting powder come out, more specifically one that’s brown. It seems like a no-brainer but I am not under the impression that they’ve been around very long. I still use translucent setting powders, Make Up For Ever’s is particularly good. But there’s nothing like seeing a brown one. Today, I’m talking…

2018 Makeup Favorites: Products I Couldn’t Put Down

Wow, what a year 2018 has been! It’s a year I drastically cut back on makeup and skincare purchases (did NOT make Sephora Rouge this year!) and shopped my stash a little bit more, especially toward the end of the year. This year, I based the list on what I just couldn’t stop using throughout the year. Have a look…

Dior Lip Glow to the Max

Dior Lip Glow to the Max

Sooooo much better than the Matte Lip Glow! I just had to start this post off by saying that because if you recall, I was not impressed with the matte version of the Dior Lip Glows. In defense of the Lip Glow, prior to trying the matte version, I hadn’t tried any other Lip Glows. Very happy that this one…

Curating a True Nude Lip For My Skin Tone

Curating a True Nude Lip For My Skin Tone

I often wonder when the beauty industry will call “nude lipsticks” for what they are: beige. I’m guilty of it too, if only by social construction. However, it turns out, my lips are not beige; they are actually almost the same color as my face. So for me, a true nude lipstick is going to be something in the brown…

Lancome’s Monsieur Big Mascara Will Give You Thick, Black, Beautiful Lashes!

I love a good mascara and Lancome is definitely a leader in the market. After trying and loving a sample of Monsieur Big, I decided to buy the full-sized. I was delighted when I found a set in Nordstrom that had the full-size Monsieur Big and a sample sized waterproof version of Monsieur Big. I don’t currently see that set…

A Dinner Party Look #MOTD

I’d love nothing more than to live out the rest of my life with unlimited funds to buy beauty products and fancy scarves, and marry a man that adores me and attends dinner parties with our wonderful friends every week, if that’s what the schedule calls for. In light of that, here’s a look I threw together, perfect for bourgeois…
