I swear when anything claims to be European or French it instantly becomes more prestigious and coveted. I follow Into the Gloss, where French products are often mentioned and I thought they were overrated. Like really, how much better could they be? Now I realize I was totally and completely wrong. They are talked about … Continue reading
This product has changed my life. Ok, maybe that’s being a touch over dramatic, but this product is truly amazing. It came in my Ipsy Glam Bag. It gives me a natural glow and my make up looks fresh hours after I applied it. It kept my skin hydrated. I absolutely loved it, which is … Continue reading

I’ve mentioned before that I’m not one for fancy products, and that’s especially true when it comes to my skincare routine. Almost everything can be found on one aisle at Target. Neutrogena Visibly Even Daily Moisturizer. I love this stuff. It’s actually hydrating and has sunscreen, spf 30! I’ve tried a lot of brands Eucerin, … Continue reading
Spring has sprung! Well sorta. Anyway it’s just about here and here are some of my favorite polishes as we go from the tail end of winter to the start of spring! Most of them are kind of Easter egg-esque, but that’s just fine for me! Clock-wise from the top left Zoya: Odette – I … Continue reading

I have to say I was a little impressed. My hair was pretty glossy and super shiny. It also smelled amazing! However, I have … Continue reading
While I love beauty products (hence my two beauty box subscriptions) nothing beats my addiction to lip balms. They’re relatively inexpensive, and come in so many shapes, sizes, and flavors. Plus, I just hate chapped lips. I’ve tried so many lip balms that it’s all a blur. There have been ones that are too waxy, … Continue reading
I really, really liked these tissues. I got them from Ipsy. They smell so amazing, just like a pomegranate. More importantly they were really good at taking my makeup off. I will say there was some residue left over, but I had a full face of make up and I know one tissue might not … Continue reading
This balm is amazing! I absolutely love it, and I got it from Birchbox. It’s really hydrating and extra thick. It’s even thicker than Aquaphor. It keeps my lips hydrated for hours. I usually put it on before bed and when I wake up my lips are smooth. I also like using it on my … Continue reading
How do I put into words how much I love this product? I don’t think I can. I use Benetint on ‘no makeup days’ when I still want some color. A little dab or two and your cheeks are stained for hours. The red tint is flatting on a variety of skin tones including darker … Continue reading
