Sponsored Post I think it was when I started college that my hair started thinning, thanks to what I believe was mix of stress and anxiety. Graduating and stepping into the real world hasn't helped much either. It's frustrating to say the least. I've tried countless products, hoping to make my hair appear thicker, but nothing ever seems to do the trick. So when I read about Pura d'or's Premium Organic Argan Oil Shampoo and Conditioner which is supposed to help prevent hair loss as well ...

NYX V’Amped Up Lip Top Coat – Review & Swatches
Yesterday I stopped into Ulta to pick up the Intense Butter Glosses (Review and swatches for those coming soon!) and decided to grab the new V'Amped Up Lip Top Coat. It's a black glossy lip pencil, which deepens the color of whatever lipstick you're wearing. The above swatches are using the NYX Butter Lipstick line, with V'Amped Up on the left and without on the right. The only thing I wish was different was the shape of the pencil, it needs to be a sharper point to really be able to ...
January Birchbox – Review
I subscribe to two monthly beauty subscription services and I have to say I think Birchbox is my favorite. For $10 a month you get to try samples of new products, from makeup to skincare to chocolate. I love the boxes, I use them for makeup storage and they have super cute designs. I especially like that they always give a little card explaining the product and how to use it. I’m the type of person that has to read the directions and many times the minis you get in the box don’t have much ...
Rimmel London Provocalips – Review & Swatches
Last week I stopped into Ulta and finally found the new Rimmel Provocalips collection. It’s a liquid lipstick which is supposed to last 16 hours thanks to a clear gloss you apply over the color. I picked up two and decided to put them to the test! You start out with step one: the color. It applies rather nicely, one swipe is very pigmented and the doe foot applicator makes things even easier. Next they suggest that you don’t let your lips touch for 60 seconds while the lipstick dries. ...
Lush’s Golden Wonder – Review
While up in Connecticut visiting my sister two weeks ago I did a bit of stocking up at Lush since unfortunately the closest one to me is about two hours away. I cannot get enough of their bath bombs! The first one I tried was the Butterball and from then on I was hooked. They're just so lovely and make taking a bath less of a bore. The first of the bath bombs I decided to try out is Golden Wonder, it's shaped like a tiny gift wrapped in a bow and if you shake it you'll hear a bit of ...
The Ultimate Highlighters – Review & Swatches
As a pale girl, okay an extremely pale girl, (People often wonder if I’ve ever seen the sun.) sometimes it can be a little hard to find the perfect highlighter. Many work beautifully on darker skin tones, but for those with nearly translucent skin, they can blend in completely. In this post I've collected some of my favorite highlighters that will work for various skin tones! I came across NYX’s Illuminator in Ritualistic when I was browsing Ulta, searching for something that wasn’t quite ...
