A few months ago I picked up one of the Maybelline Color Blur Lipsticks while browsing Bed Bath & Beyond. For some reason they always seem to have new makeup releases before anywhere else around here. Then finally they were released at Ulta and on a buy one get one half off deal so of course I had to pick up two more! The formula is really lovely. They glide on without any tugging on the lips and the small applicator actually makes it quite easy to control. They have a matte finish and ...

Maybelline Color Tattoo Eyeshadow – Review & Swatches
So it was about three in the morning when I realized that yesterday was Wednesday and not Tuesday and that I hadn't finished up a post yet. Sorry about that! We've been away for the past few days visiting my sister and brother in law at their new home in Rhode Island. I didn't even touch my laptop once surprisingly. But keep an eye out for posts on my travel makeup bag and the Newport Cliff Walk. After one use I knew Maybelline's Color Tattoo in Bad to the Bronze would be one of my favorite ...
Tarte Blushes – Review & Swatches
I’m a blush girl. It’s sort of become a necessity, otherwise I look like I haven’t seen the sunlight for a few years. I swear I do go outside, I just like to protect my skin! Anyway, I’m a huge fan of Tarte in general. I love their products and their packaging is always gorgeous. If I know I’m going to have a particularly long day I most likely will reach for a Tarte Amazonian Clay 12-Hour Wear Blush. I just know they’re going to last through pretty much everything. Unfortunately I ...
UK’s Makeup Revolution Comes to Ulta – Review & Swatches
I was browsing through Ulta's new release section a few weeks ago when I spotted the British makeup brand, Makeup Revolution. I did a double check to make sure it was the same and sure enough it was! Of course I just had to pick up one of basically everything, to get a real feel for the brand. Most reviews I'd read were all relatively positive so I had high hopes. I've been testing everything out for the past couple weeks and I figured I'd let you know what I thought. First of all is ...
The Lipstick Diaries: L’Oreal Colour Riche Collection Exclusive Red Lipcolor
I’d been dying to try the L’Oreal Colour Riche Collection Exclusive Red Lipcolors (and breathe) ever since I heard about their release in the UK. So of course I was super excited when I was checking Ulta's new release section and finally found them! And they were on sale! I picked up three to try: Julianne, Blake and Eva’s reds. I’ve since seen them at my local Target so you can pick them up there as well. (Ulta: $7.99 & Target: $5.99) There's six shades available at Ulta and on Target's ...
June Favorites
Happy Monday! Hope you had a lovely Fourth of July if you're here in the US or just a great weekend if you're elsewhere in the world! So let's all ignore the fact that I totally missed last month's favorites! Things have been quite hectic lately with photoshoots, weddings, family get togethers and of course, two crazy puppies. And it doesn't help that where I normally photographed everything is no longer available so it all just takes a bit more time. Anyway, lets get on to the favorites shall ...
