I was inspired to do this post by the Full Coverage Podcast when they talked about products that brought them joy.

Makeup Stash Fridays: Fall Lipsticks

I have been wanting to do one of these types of post for awhile.

Updated “No Makeup Makeup products”

As I said in my last one of these posts I don’t know how I feel about the no makeup makeup term.

I like to do this kind of look when I’m just, to … Read More Updated “No Makeup Makeup products”

But I really like the idea of tag blog posts and videos because I think it really forces us to think about our collections and then actually shop your stash versus buying a new palette. I also wasn’t tagged but alas … Read More Perfect Palette Tag

Are MAC Lipsticks worth it?

The age old question, are MAC cosmetics lipsticks worth it? In the YouTube and beauty blogging space MAC was such a thing at the beginning times. Everyone had a “my favourite MAC lipsticks” video and a “MAC products you need”. I personally have had a few MAC products before including their lip liner in Strip down and their brown pencil in fling. I broke … Read More Are MAC Lipsticks worth it?
