Happy Valentine's Day to All! This post really has nothing to do with Valentine's Day, but I took a cute picture of my MAC lipsticks in a heart shape, so that's that. The real reason for this post is that for the last few months I've been really thinking about combing through my collection and getting rid of a lot of items I...

Golden Rose sent me a few lipsticks to try out recently, and they are some beautiful lipsticks! I was not aware of this brand prior to them contacting me, but now I plan on ordering some more lipsticks and other products. They sent me two different formulas of lipsticks in a few different shades. I swatched them all here, which are each just...

H&M launched their new beauty line earlier this fall. Yesterday I stopped by the H&M on 48th & 5th to check it out and walked away with four items to test the line and see what the quality was like. Obviously I've had these for a short time, but here are my first impressions based on what I got. Pure Radiance Powder Blusher...

I was disappointed, along with the rest of the world, in the three prequel movies in...

I don't always do a post for my Glossybox, but the box for June had pretty good content, so I thought I'd share it. I bought a year subscription last fall, and though I think Glossybox has had some of the best stuff (only somewhat offset by a higher price), I am disappointed by one glaring problem that they refuse to fix. Judging...

My sister recently gave me a couple new products she found at the drugstore as a gift. Even though I had never heard of Sula, I was immediately intrigued by the packaging. The design is simple and the lipstick tube is made of metal and not plastic. They feel nice and look nice, which I personally find important in my beauty products. Most...

With the release of RiRi Woo, the new Rihanna lipstick from MAC based off of the iconic color Ruby Woo, I decided to also pick up another beauty-blogger favorite, Russian Red. Instead of just showing swatches of RiRi Woo for you all, I thought it might be fun to swatch all of the deep red lipsticks that I have from MAC. First, a...
