Review: Milani Color Statement Moisture Matte Lipstick

I usually only pick up products that my favorite YouTubers and Instagrammers are raving about because I know I can trust them (yes, people whom I've never actually met) and because of that, I know a majority of the time it'll save some pretty pennies in my pocket. However, I saw these at Walmart and was automatically like,"OOO, pretty colors." And then I ended up purchasing them just like that. I haven't heard a whole lot of people, if not any people, talking about this in the beauty community and was really excited to test these products out and form a proper opinion on them, so let's get juicy...

Review: Hourglass Ambient Lighting Edit Palette

Is it worth the money?

 

So I was in the market for a new face powder since I finally ran out of my bareSkin powder by bareMinerals, so I thought I would give this palette a whirl because it's shininess caught my eye... Totally kidding, but the packaging is insanely shiny and reflective and might actually blind you  if you are not careful (again, kidding). I've heard quite the buzz over the Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powder in the shade Diffused Light which happens to be included in this palette, so I thought I'd give it a whirl...

 Becca Cosmetics x Jaclyn Hill Collaboration

Extreme closeup of my face wearing Champagne Pop

Some of you might know about (or be obsessed with) Jaclyn Hill. I am all about her. She's just so honest and talented and I absolutely love her freaking guts. She recently did a collaboration with Becca Cosmetics and created a highlighter. The result? Champagne Pop.

Mini Drugstore Haul

What happens in Target...

Why, hello there! This week has been a busy week for me and things needed to get done.. including a trip to Target. No matter how many times you tell yourself you're just going in for the bare necessities and that you'll be in and out in 15 minutes tops, you find yourself there for about an hour (or more, let's get real) and with a bunch of crap in your cart that you don't need. I can't be the only one, right? Right. If you say I am, you're lying to yourself (shame on you). So today, I thought I'd briefly share some of the beauty goodies I picked up. Let's get juicy!

Review: Simple Cleansing Micellar Water

To Buy Or Not To Buy

This product has been buzzing around the beauty community and one of my favorite beauty bloggers/vloggers talked about it, so of course I went out and purchased it for myself to see if it was as amazing as she talked about in her video (the amount of trust I put into these people that I've never met is insane, I know). This said product is... the Simple Cleansing Micellar Water.

Face of the Day

So today, this is what my face looked like, cute isn't it? Just kidding. I wish I could say I woke up like this, but alas my friends, this took some effort.

I decided to stick to something that's fairly simple, but still makes me look alive and ready to take on the life of retail (insert daunting music here).  I've been really gravitating towards warmer red tones on my eyes because I find that it compliments me well--it could totally not, but that's just my personal opinion--and just bronzing up my face because I'm quite pasty looking and I want to look like I've been frolicking around in the sun when I've basically been inside ALL DAY. Alright, enough chit chat... let's get juicy. ;)

Insecurities

Being comfortable in your own skin is a lot harder than it sounds. Why? Because all of us have insecurities; no matter how big or small they may be. Many people are shamed on a daily basis because they're not perfect, but in reality, is perfection even real? This answer shouldn't require much thought because, it's not. Let me emphasize--Perfection does not exist. Not unless you're Beyonce.
