Makeup Brushes don’t stay clean for long if you are using them daily. Years ago, I didn’t even think about washing my makeup brushes–it just wasn’t one of those things that ever crossed my mind. Now, part of getting ready for my week includes washing all of my makeup brushes. Why you should wash your […]

Mini Kit: Matte Liquid Lipsticks Holiday 2016 by Kylie Cosmetics
Kylie Cosmetics can be a bit of conundrum. They sell out quickly, the website doesn’t post a ton of swatches on different skin types, and because there is no physical store, sampling products is out of the question. Also, there is a set in stone standard of absolutely no returns. So, how are you supposed […]
November Favorites
November. A deal hunters dream thanks to the trifecta of Sephora’s VIB Rouge Sale, Black Friday, and Cyber Monday deals. So long to both November, and the money I earned in November. See you…well, I don’t know when I will see you as the Holiday deals keep flooding my inbox. Below is a breakdown of […]
November BoxyCharm
Boxycharm is the only subscription I currently receive. I selected it because I enjoy trying new, under-the-radar cosmetic companies. Most importantly, I love that Boxycharm sends only full sized products. In the past, I have grown tired of receiving small samples that run out quickly or don’t pack the same punch as their full-size counterparts. (Like […]

I was able to snag this set when it initially launched, and have had some time to wear and swatch the shades. The Shades… “Okurrr“(Bright […]
Skin Care Favorites
Skin care is one of my top priorities. Skin is the canvas for every bit of makeup you’ll ever apply–so having a great foundation is ideal. Of course, no skin is perfect and I struggle with my fair share of skin issues (skin imperfections, visible pores, and a moderately oily t-zone, which leads to black […]
Makeup Game Changer: Setting Spray
Depending on where you are within the world of cosmetics and beauty products, you likely lie somewhere on the spectrum ranging between ‘What’s setting spray?’ and ‘Yes way setting spray!’ A few years ago, I had no idea what setting spray was nor why I should use it. Basically, once you have applied all your makeup, […]
My Holy Grail Hair Mask
Having long hair is romantic, dreamy, and stunning…just look on Instagram. What Instagrammers/Bloggers/Vloggers rarely if ever document is the absolute rats nest long hair can turn into if you aren’t on top of your game with regards to hair care. Hi, my name is Elizabeth, and I have had dreadful looking long hair multiple times […]
Brand Review: ColourPop Cosmetics
How I found the brand… After Kylie Jenner launched her lip kit line in mid-2016, I noticed the brand name “ColourPop” popping up (forgive the pun) in my social media feeds. Articles claimed Jenner was selling ColourPop products and charging a higher price because of her celebrity. At the time, I struggled to get my […]
