    Happy Monday, y’all!  I hope everyone had a great weekend 🙂  Today, we are kick-starting the week with a review of the Becca x Jaclyn Hill Champagne Collection Face Palette!  I did not pick up this palette during its initial launch last year and after it quickly sold out, I had a serious case of FOMO.  When this relaunched in early December with limited quantities, I HAD to order it.  Although this particular palette is now out of stock and no longer available in US Sephoras (as of today), the Champagne Collection is still very much in stock so I wanted to review their formula for you in case you were…

    Hi loves!  Today, I will be reviewing the Anastasia Beverly Hills Sun Dipped Glow Kit that I ordered from Ulta.  I already own the ABH Glow Kit in That Glow and they are my favorite powder highlighters ever.  I adore the stunning shades and beautiful formula so when I saw ABH came out with a new kit with deeper shades, I was eager to put it to the test and see if it matches in quality.What it is:  Four velvety powders that instantly cast a lit-from-within glow (Packaging excerpt). Price: $40, 4 x 0.26 oz Where to Buy: Ulta, Sephora, ABH websitePackaging:  I love how compact and sleek the packaging…

    June 29, 2016 / 0 Comments

    Hi loves!  Today, I will be reviewing the Marc Jacobs Glow Stick Glistening Illuminator that I received in my Beauty VoxBox from Influenster.  I’ve previously received two sample boxes from Influenster, but this was by far the most exciting one.  I’ve heard good things about Marc Jacob products on social media, but I have yet to purchase any.  This VoxBox included a full sized Glow Stick Glistening Illuminator, so that was very generous as this brand is very high-end aka pricey. What it is: A portable cream stick highlighter in a first-ever universal shade for instant dewy payoff (Sephora.com). Price: $42, 0.49 oz Where to Buy: Sephora Packaging:  My first impression when…
