There are a few beauty items I have way too many of. Okay, I am lying… you can't have too many beauty items! Who's with me on this? I have countless lip glosses, lip crayons, and eyeliners (although I really only use a couple of them), and of course, blush. I love blushes. While a [...]

Pretty Work Outfit? No Problem.
While at times, nothing beats yoga pants and flip flops, at heart, I am a dresses and heels kind of girl. Even though I could technically wear my pajamas to the office if I felt like it (although I might get a few strange looks!), I prefer to pick out a pretty dress. Even though [...]
Ipsy January 2015 Unboxing
I am always excited to see my shiny pink bubble envelope from Ipsy in the mailbox each month. As soon as I opened it, I was a little disappointed to see a plain, basic, boring, blah bag inside. Royal blue on one side, white on the other, and with an orange zipper. None of these [...]
Benefit Magic Ink Liquid Eyeliner
My current eyeliner crush is Magic Ink by Benefit Cosmetics. It is a liquid eyeliner that goes on smoothly with a small tapered brush. The jet-black shade is highly pigmented, and has major staying power compared to some other liquid eyeliners that I have tried. It is difficult to find a good eyeliner. I do [...]
Ipsy December 2014 Unboxing
The December Ipsy Glam Bag was pretty good. This month's cosmetic bag was a black satin bag with a deep cranberry lining. The cutest part was the cranberry-colored heart on the zipper pull. I liked that the shape was different than in other months, and is just right for holding makeup brushes during travel. The [...]
Glossybox November 2014 Unboxing
While I have tried several beauty boxes, Glossybox is my favorite. I look forward to receiving their pretty pink boxes (although sometimes colored differently for a themed month here and there), as their products tend to be higher end, deluxe samples that I would actually use. My November Glossybox just arrived yesterday. Here is what [...]
Benefit Cosmetics: Creaseless Cream Shadow
I recently discovered Benefit Cosmetics' Creaseless Cream Shadow. I have been using it for about five days now, and I have to say that I love it! I have been using the creaseless shadow in RSVP, which is a beautiful champagne color. It really does last, and it really doesn't crease, which is unusual for [...]
Best Blush For A Pretty Flush
I have several different blushes, but my absolute favorite for the past several years has been Hot Mama by the Balm. Cute packaging aside, it is the perfect peachy blush with a just the faintest hint of golden shimmer. It's not overly pigmented, like many blushes, and it's not too glimmery, like others. It's just [...]
Ipsy November 2014 Unboxing
The November 2014 Ipsy bag was all about glitter. I was excited about this, as I love a little sparkle! The cosmetic bag is sparkly silver with a hot pink zipper. This has to be my favorite bag yet. I immediately filled it up with my essentials, and tossed it in my purse. Overall, I [...]
Peachy Perfect: Nars Orgasm
Most beauty lovers are more than familiar with Nars Orgasm blush. A definite cult classic. It supposedly casts the perfect peachy sheen on any skin tone. My blush drawer is overflowing at the moment, so Nars does not live there today. Blushes aside, I am absolutely in love with Nars Orgasm lip gloss. Like the blush, [...]
