Product Review: Trader Joe’s Rose Oil Hand Cream
Winter is still here. Bumper, right? Winter can be a total pain and it can also be super drying on the skin. These conditions makes it essential to moisturize and hydrate your skin.

Product Review: Colourpop No Filter Foundation Stix
I’ve been a Colourpop fan for a few years now. Ever since I first tried their liquid lipsticks, I knew it was a great brand.

Colourpop recently released a line of foundation sticks that claim to provide: … Read More

Mascara is one of those makeup items that I absolutely love testing out. Luckily, the drugstore has some great options and drugstore brands are always coming out with new mascaras.

Product Review: Rimmel Stay Matte Fix & Go Setting Spray
I used to think setting sprays were unnecessary. I mean let’s be real — it’s a spray that you use before and after your makeup to somehow keep your makeup looking better for longer. Although that sounds nice, it’s kind of a bouche makeup product. All the other makeup products are more important because without them, the need for setting … Read More
Should You Wash Your Face with Sparkling Water?

I’ve heard of everything from using toothpaste to calm zits (doesn’t work) to using red lipstick under your eyes to color-correct dark circles (definitely can work). It all seems pretty crazy and most strange beauty tactics you hear about will probably not work. I tend to not … Read More
