    Makeup Revolution Ultra Eye Contour Light and Shade Palette Review

    July 14, 2017 / 0 Comments

    Happy Friday, loves!  Congrats on making it to the weekend  Today, I'm excited to be reviewing the Makeup Revolution Ultra Eye Contour Light & Shade Palette.  First off, let's address the obvious.  This looks identical to the Kat Von D Shade + Light Eye Contour Palette   I previously owned the cult favorite and while I enjoyed the formula, the majority of the shades were too neutral/ cool-toned for my personal tastes.  I ended up only using about three warm shades.  With the $48 price tag, I didn't feel I was getting my money's worth out of the palette.  So when I saw this affordable Makeup Revolution dupe, I was…

    Happy Saturday, dolls!  Today I'll be sharing with you some goodies from my recent ELF Cosmetics Haul!  I love the ELF brand as it is super affordable and easily accessible at the drugstores, all while having such high quality products.  So when they had yet another 50% off sale on the majority of items on their website, I couldn't resist   Some of these products are Holy Grail repurchases while others are new to me.  Let’s dive right in and see how they performed!

  • Boxycharm March 2017 Unboxing & First Impressions

    April 5, 2017 / 0 Comments

    Happy Hump Day, y’all!  It’s time to dive into March’s Boxycharm 🙂  Boxycharm is my favorite beauty subscription box that provides 5-6 full-sized items for $21/month.  What I love about Boxycharm is that the value of all the luxury products always well exceed the $21 price. March’s theme is Creepy Cute and comes with 5 products. Naked Cosmetics Urban Rustic Palette – $39.99 (nakedcos.com) These colors offer a dramatic look when applied damp or with an eye base.  The colors have hints of green, bronze, purple, and brown (excerpt).  I’ve received loose pigments from Naked Cosmetics in previous Ipsy bags and liked their beautiful formula.  These pressed eyeshadows are equally stunning.  The formula is…
