Korres Lemon Anti-Shine Gel

Always on the hunt for an anti-shine product that will last for hours on end, I received Korres Lemon Anti-Shine Gel to see if it could combat my oily t-zone.
What they say:
A light-textured lemon-scented anti-shine gel that instantly refreshes and mattifies oily skin on contact. Ideal for acne-prone skin types, this refreshing gel can be […]

NYX Tinted Lip Spa

How can you look good while moisturinzing your lips? With NYX’s Tinted Lip Spa of course!
I received this little blessing a little over a week ago and have had a hard time not applying it everyday (my other lip products sometimes beg to be used).

 
My Tinted Lip Spa came in Copacabana, which is a nice […]

Twisted Fayte Holiday Glam Queen Lip Vinyls

I will admit to the world that I have a girl crush on Heather Hanson, owner of Twisted Fayte cosmetics. Not a girl crush in the way all of you mind-in-the-gutter readers are thinking, but a girl crush because she always blows me away with her customer service skills.
Heather recently sent me a very impressive […]

e.l.f. Eye Makeup Remover

There are so many products by e.l.f. that I love. Their Hypershine Gloss, Moisture Care Lip Color, Super Glossy Lip Shine and Nail Polish Remover Pads to name a few. However, the Eye Makeup Remover is sadly not on that list of love.
The Eye Makeup Remover Pads come just as the Nail Polish Remover pads […]

jane iredale PurePressed Base SPF 18

First can I even just say that I feel very luxurious carrying around this powder compact, as it is not your typical “silver” compact, but instead it is gold. Gold my friends. I look like a high end, high style classy girl from the mountains.
I’m not being smug, I just love how from the minute […]

Esthetic Plus Tweezers

It’s really hard to find a good pair of tweezers. My eyebrows have been in disarray because I purchased some tweezers, thinking they were going to be good, but much to my disappointed and my eyebrows on crack…they were not.
So when I read Elke’s review on Esthetic Plus’ tweezers, I knew that if Elke raved […]

Lulu Beauty Lip Lustre

Oh how I love shiny things. Shiny earrings (diamonds), shiny rings (diamonds), shiny bracelets (diamonds) and so on. So when I received Lulu Beauty’s Lip Lustre, I was very excited to put some shine on my lips.
The Lip Lustre I received was in Velvet, which was a pretty mauve tone and almost had a plum […]

tarte: Jake and Samantha lipgloss

I recently received tarte’s double ended lipgloss in Jake & Samantha (formerly Carrie and Big). The colors are bright raspberry and pale cotton candy pink. Two colors that happen to look smashingly on me (if I do say so myself).
These gloss containers spare no expense and waste no space. They are literally completely filled with […]

Pro Pigment by Urban Apothecary

When I purchased my Supernatural Mineral Powder, the great deal offered by Urban Apothecary was that I would receive a Pro Pigment for free. It was a $16 value and I was completely excited to try something new.
I chose Czarina for my Pro Pigment, which on the website looked like a combination of pinks and […]

e.l.f. Moisture Care Lip Color

Back when I purchased my Hypershine Gloss from e.l.f.,I also purchased their Moisture Care Lip Color. The packaging almost appears the same; separate chamber for gloss, you have to twist the tube to make it release from the chamber and so on.
What’s different about this product is that the tip is smooth and velvety and […]
