Ooooh I bet you never thought you would hear me say I loved another eyeshadow other than my beloved creation Hocus Pocus did you? Well I do….and I’ve been wearing it DAILY. Urban Decay Stardust Eyeshadow came to me by chance as a sample size in a gift bag last summer, and I have nearly [...]
I am much more particular about what kind of shampoo/conditioner I put in my hair these days. What do I meant by that exactly? Basically, I try to seek out products that are kinder and gentler to the environment and in turn, to my hair. Honestly, ever since I have paid more attention to this, [...]
Do you love glossy balms? How about layering lippies?? I do that all the time…and we all know of my aversion to lip balm of any kind. So, when YSL Volupte Sheer Candy [$30] came across my desk…I was DONE. The packaging alone had me at hello….BUT I really love the formula. Now, if you [...]

I love going to The Makeup Show because when I do, I inevitably end up discovering some great products like this one. Face Atelier, which is a Canadian brand that I know and love (they have amazing face foundations that are light as air) has this FANTASTIC new product called Facade [$26] which is a [...]
Just as skincare for the face transitions for warmer weather so should body care. I love how heavier lotions and creams make my skin feel BUT when it’s 100 degrees outside, sometimes it can be a bit much. Mario Badescu Summer Shine Body Lotion [$10.00 for 6 oz. or $22.00 for 16 oz.], is a totally [...]
