911. We have a zit-uation. And it’s on my chin. Enter Zit Stick. New Glossier: The Zit Stick When describing my sentiment toward pimples, acne, zits, blemishes, hell, the word “frustrating” is putting it rather lightly. Whatever you want to call it, I don’t want to have it. Pimple cream sounds (and feels) antiquated. Like […]
Before we know it, summer will be here, and for me summer means two things: my face will become a skincare merry-go-round featuring a variety of face mists and all the gel consistencies I can get my hands on. Two, I will be perpetually slathering serum onto the expression-line areas of my face in hopes […]
The top Glossier products I love and recommend 100 percent. Boy Brow. For fluffy, full looking brows. My brows still look natural, yet fluffy and well groomed minus any crunchiness. Cloud Paint. A gel cream blush that almost looks like a natural stain on the cheeks. They’re pigmented, but blend easily and give the cheeks […]
The Glossier Supers. They’re supposed to be little superheroes for your face (sans the cape because not all superheroes wear capes, ya know). But, are they really? I know affiliate links bother some people so I want to get something out of the way: Yes, I am a Glossier rep. Yes, I make a small commission […]
Serums. Serums. They seem to be my new “thing.” Glossier Super Pure vs The Ordinary Niacinamide + Zinc Serum Never have I ever tested out as many serums as I have in the past 6 months, and I’m not complaining. Two serums that are very similar in terms of main ingredients, but very different in […]
Because the second I started using lip balms without petroleum jelly, my lips stopped flaking and peeling off. Hopefully it helps you too. Yes, I am a hater. I’ve tasted the haterade, and I’m drunk with hate. I h a t e petroleum jelly, and all the sneaky names it disguises itself as– mineral oil, paraffin, petrolatum; I hate it […]
Because my skincare addiction continues on into 2017. You know I said “hell yes” when Seoul Apothecary reached out to me and asked if I wanted to try some stuff from their online store. K beauty is all the rage at the moment, and I honestly haven’t tried that much. The two K beauty brands that I have tried are Belif […]
Because I haven’t found one as good as this one. The Greatest Cleanser of Them All… I spoke briefly about my favorite cleanser in my beauty favorites of 2016, but I wanted to talk more about this cleanser in depth. The Boscia Purifying Cleansing Gel is my all time favorite and the greatest cleanser of them all [as […]
Glossier’s solution to the pesky problem that is dull, blemish prone, textured, and uneven toned skin is their new Solution— a 10% AHA, BHA, PHA liquid exfoliator. If you know me then you know I’m A L L about chemical exfoliators (hello Complex Beauty The Godmother, Drunk Elephant Babyfacial, Sunday Riley Good Genes, The Ordinary Glycolic Toner, and all you […]
Don’t tell me I’m the only one who carefully curates her Sephora shopping cart days weeks in advance in preparation for this yearly event. My Sephora VIB Sale Picks for 2016 The Sephora sale is obviously one of my favorite sales ever. If you’re a beauty junkie then I’m sure you’ll agree! I have a huge beauty wishlist (see my […]
It seems like the mountain has come to me this time and it has taken up residence on my chin. A Skincare Haul I go through periods of infatuation. Sometimes I am in love with illuminating primers, other times I’m in love with highlighters. Now, it seems as though my newest obsession is skincare. Everyone wants clear […]
I have really been trying to step up my skincare game lately. I love makeup– you know this– but as Glossier says, “skin first, makeup second, smile always,” and that’s exactly what I’m doing. Well, minus the smiling because #restingbitchface problems. I’ve had the pleasure of testing out some Algenist skincare products over the last […]
My love affair with makeup began when I was around 13, but I never had the best skincare regimen. If I had done my makeup the night before, and had to be somewhere early the next morning, I just slept in my makeup– I’m literally cringing right now. The past year to year and a […]
