An Analysis of My Concealer Collection

I think we are all aware of the newest launch from Nudestix with their abysmal, nay embarrassing shade range. TWO deep shades? Are you serious. I was rooting for your Nudestix. I love your blushes and bronzers, and I loved your pencil concealer then you pull this crap after participating in pull up for change. Again, I understand that brands are corporations and their … Read More An Analysis of My Concealer Collection

How my Makeup Taste has Changed

When I started this blog, it was not a beauty blog or a lifestyle blog. It was a blog where I ranted, and talked about running, and talked about things I liked such as TV, but somewhere along the way it morphed into a beauty blog, featuring mostly affordable makeup with few high end products. I started this blog as a university, spending student … Read More How my Makeup Taste has Changed

Battle of the Bronzers: Comparison and Mini reviews

Bronze is one of those items that I personally, never thought I would be using.

The IT Cosmetics CC Cream is an iconic product. My mom loves it, influencers love it, but I wanted to get the illumination version.
