I couldn’t bring myself to add one more gift guide to the internet this December. You don’t want to read it, and I don’t want to write it. But you know what I can always bring myself to do? Expose the things I’ve bought on Amazon lately. There’s something weirdly intimate about seeing what people […]
My Affordable Makeup Routine (Nothing Over $12.99!)
Yup, you read that right. The most expensive item on my list of everyday makeup? $12.99. Plus, you can get all of the below products at Ulta or Amazon—those are the two places I’ve linked to make your shopping easier. After all, who wants to buy from five different sites and rack up shipping costs?! […]
Concealer Wars
For years, I used the same concealer by E.L.F. Thick enough to provide full coverage but not cakey, I never strayed from it. I had it in different shades for different seasons of paleness. Then, one day, I went to stock back up…and it was gone! I gave a different concealer of theirs a shot […]
My New Skincare Routine
Confession: my current “skincare” regimen consists of taking off my makeup with a pre-moistened wipe. Not even a name brand wipe. Nope. A generic version. Sometimes I follow it up with a drugstore spot treatment for any pesky pimples that pop up. But, that’s it. I wasn’t embarrassed about that until recently. With skincare finding […]
Making Up is Hard to Do: My Makeup Picks
One day at the beginning of January, while high on the fresh promise of New Year’s resolutions, I woke up and decided I was going to teach myself how to do makeup. Yes, I already wear makeup, but my current routine consists of using my fingers to slather on some concealer and then layering on […]
Let’s Clear it Up: My Clarisonic Review
This post is sponsored by Clarisonic and Her Campus Media. A few weeks ago, I opened the mirrored cabinet in my bathroom. I reached for my acne spot-treatment, accidentally knocking over my age-preventing moisturizer. It felt like some sort of sick joke. Are the faces of women doomed to go from acne-ridden to wrinkle-covered overnight? […]
The Skin-ny on the Clarisonic Mia
This is a sponsored post in partnership with Clarisonic and Her Campus Media. All words and opinions are my own. It’s no secret that I love putting my time into shopping, planning outfits, and accessorizing. But for some reason, when it comes to the other aspects of my fashion and beauty routine, I’m totally lazy. […]
(Drugstore) Beauty Queen
It’s no secret that I spend most of my money on clothing. (I’m working on it, ok?) Which means that there’s not much leftover for makeup and hair products. Then there’s also the fact that I press snooze every few minutes for two hours long. Every. Single. Morning. I barely have time to throw clothes […]
La Vie en Rose: Rose Gold Hair
Introducing my latest obsession: rose gold hair. By now, we’re used to seeing colorful locks, from pastels to more vibrant hues. Celebrities like Nicole Richie, Kylie Jenner, Katy Perry, Hilary Duff and more have taken the plunge into vats of funky-colored hair dye. But the latest trend is a little easier for us normal folk […]
R+Co Review: Part Two
Remember my review of those R+Co hair products from a while back? Probably not, because it has taken me just under two months to post Part Two of that review. I know, I majorly suck. But even if it takes me a while, I never turn back on a promise. So: Drumroll please… Here is PART TWO of […]
