Let's talk about s… kincare, makeup, etc.
So it's the end of my first month attempting to be smart. I'd like to discuss how I did. Time I started strong with the time management stuff. Toward the beginning of the month, I was getting up on time, having breakfast, spending time with Dan and still starting work on time. Woo! However... The last... Continue Reading →
I am very done with big "influencers". I unsubscribed from most of them long ago, and the few who retained a shred of credibility, like Tati, have lost it. How can we trust them when they spend their time sucking up to brands and shilling their own terrible products? Answer: we can't. It's not in... Continue Reading →
While I was reading posts from some of my favorite blogs, I came across this tag on LifeMakeupStyle. It's been a super long time since I did a tag post so I was excited to do this. 1. What is the one product you could not go without? Mascara, preferably waterproof because my eyes are... Continue Reading →
Happy Sunday internet friends! I have a post scheduled for later tonight, but I wanted to pop in and tell you all... A giveaway is coming. I haven't done one in a very long time, and I'm finally ready to show you the things I've been accumulating for months. Stay tuned for details!
I haven't done a review in a long while, but I was using this product this morning and wanted to give you my thoughts about it. I purchased the Mizon Black Snail All in One Cream from Amazon in the fall and I've been using it just about every day since. I was interested in... Continue Reading →
Brandon Truaxe died. A few months ago he was the center of attention due to his erratic behavior and his odd posts on the Deciem's social media. This behavior, including his attempt to completely shut down the company, led to minority shareholders Estee Lauder having him removed as CEO in October by order of a... Continue Reading →
I know it's kind of late for a 'best of 2018' post, but here it is anyway. It's been cold and snowy in Albany for the last few days; what I think of as hibernation weather, and in my mind hibernating means books and tea. There's nothing worse to me than being out of reading... Continue Reading →
When I got my first FabFitFun box last year I was so excited I thought I might explode. It's more expensive than any of the other subscriptions I had tried and I was concerned that it wouldn't actually be worth the price. I've received four more boxes, and while I've been happier with some boxes... Continue Reading →
Are you one of the 8.5 million people who've watched this video in the past couple of days? If you've been here for any length of time you'll know that I have some *thoughts* about this commercial and the response to it. Hi, rabid intersectional feminist, right here. First and foremost: I don't love that Gillette... Continue Reading →
A couple weeks ago I received an email from Beautylish about a new release from Sulwhasoo. I was vaguely aware of the brand; I know it's a Korean prestige brand that has skincare and some makeup. It'a really bougie and totally out of my price range for skin care, so I've never really paid attention... Continue Reading →
'Tis the season for making resolutions. For me, sticking to resolutions has almost always been impossible. They're unattainable goals, like "This year I'm going to get my life together." What does that even mean? Inevitably I get overwhelmed or discouraged with these huge, lofty goals and two weeks into the year I just give up... Continue Reading →
Morphe is releasing a foundation later this month. In 60 shades. SIXTY. SHADES. OF FOUNDATION. They're calling it Fluidity Foundation and it's supposed to be matte and full coverage with 24-hour transfer and water resistant wear for all skin types. And it's $18. Um. Wut. I don't understand. Am I dreaming? This is like everything... Continue Reading →
I know that I don't talk about news on the daily and that there are plenty of other ways to get your beauty news (like maybe the YouTube channel Beauty News, which I love. Those Aussie ladies are my homegirls), but in the last 24 hours there have been some stories that I found interesting... Continue Reading →
Back in October Rimmel announced that they'd be partnering with The Cybersmile Foundation in a campaign to combat beauty cyberbullying, employing the hashtag #IWILLNOTBEDELETED. Unfortunately, this announcement was overshadowed by one of Rimmel's sister brands, CoverGirl, announcing that they're now certified as cruelty-free. The news has been on my radar for a while but because I'm a... Continue Reading →
