    October 2017 Favorites

    I feel like as we approach the end of the year time is going by faster and faster! This month has been another whirlwind and I can’t believe how quickly it went by. As evidenced by the fact that I only wrote SIX blog posts this month, October has been a very busy time for us! Here are some things that I’ve been enjoying this past month:   Beauty Bakerie Lip Whips Okay seriously, I know I just wrote an entire post basically raving about these but I am seriously obsessed. Since I wrote that post I’ve bought 3 more…

    Beauty Bakerie Lip Whip Review

    Today I have for you another makeup review that I’ve been meaning to write for some time…but never got around to doing haha. In this post I’ll be reviewing some liquid lipsticks by the brand Beauty Bakerie: As you probably know, our wedding is coming up (very quickly, might I add) and I plan on doing my own makeup. I’ve been practicing with a bunch of different products, and one of the things I’ve been looking for is the perfect lip color. I wanted to find something super long lasting for the big day, that will make it through eating, drinking,…

    Fenty Beauty Match Stix Review

    If you’re into makeup like I am, you probably are aware of the major release that happened last month in the form of Fenty Beauty: It’s taken over the front page of Sephora! Fenty Beauty is the makeup brand created by Rihanna, and the makeup world has been all abuzz about it since the line was announced. Most people were super excited that the brand was debuting with an unheard of 40 foundation shades – 3/4 of which are sold out at Sephora right now: I (like everyone else) was intrigued to see what the line offered. Welllll the screenshot above speaks…

    September 2017 Favorites

    I feel like I say this every month, but I literally cannot believe we are already at the end of September. It has been a CRAZY month (I wrote about why in my last post) and before I even knew it we’re sitting here looking at October. Because of all the craziness this month I didn’t have time to focus on a lot of other stuff, but here are a few things that made me happy this month: Australian Survivor This week I wrote about the return of US Survivor, but in the time between seasons I’ve started watching the…

    How to Clean Fake Lashes

    If you’ve been reading my blog for a while (or honestly not that long at all) you may remember my semi-recent posts about how I clean my beauty blenders and makeup brushes. Well, after a visit to a certain not-so-scary Halloween party, I discovered another beauty item that may need cleaning: false lashes! I don’t wear lashes all that often, mostly for special days or just when I feel like it. You obviously don’t have to clean your lashes if you plan on tossing them after one use, but I like to get multiple wears out of each pair of…

    Hello and welcome to this month’s August favorites!

    What’s In My Travel Makeup Bag

    A few weeks ago you may recall my post about what I packed in my travel toiletry bag for our Pittsburgh trip last month. Today I’m bringing you my second travel-themed “what’s in my bag” post with everything that I keep in my travel makeup bag!! This is JUST the makeup that I brought with me for traveling – all of my skin care, makeup wipes, and other liquid stuff like that was in my toiletry bag 🙂 First I’ll start with the bag itself. This is the Sephora “Vacationer” travel makeup bag: I actually first saw this recommended in…

    Analysis of a Beauty Box: Target

    After getting a bunch of really kind and supportive responses for my last Beauty Box Analysis post, I’m super excited to write a second one!! This time I’m going to be covering the Target Beauty Box 🙂 First off, of course, if you haven’t already checked out my Target Beauty Box reviews, you can do so here! In my Sephora post, I had been subscribed to the box for a year, so I had 12 boxes’ worth of products to analyze and compare. I only started getting Target boxes in October of 2016 (and missed a month back in February…

    Battle of the Beauty Blenders

    Today’s post is something I’ve wanted to do for a long time! I’ve always been curious about comparing different products that are similar in style or function. Makeup sponges a la the Beauty Blender are definitely one of those things!! There’s so much hype around the different sponges and whether they’re “worth it” and now that I own….several….of these sponges, I felt like it was time to officially compare them all. In total, I currently own 16 different makeup sponges: Beauty Blender Original Beauty Blender Pro Beauty Blender Nude EcoTools Perfecting Blender Duo Real Techniques Miracle Complexion Sponge Real Techniques…
