With Fall increasingly approaching and marking its territory, I’ve been switching out my wardrobe and packing away the Spring/Summer items until next year. For my beauty palette, I’ve been switching out the lighter, summery colors for the darker colors.
And during this time, I had what Oprah calls (yes, collective eyeroll) an “Aha” moment.
I always wear [...]

As I’ve gotten older, I’ve come to realize that my intentions the way I wear my makeup has changed. When I was in high school, I was all about the glitter with Urban Decay and Hard Candy (R.I.P) eyeshadows, eyeliners and lipsticks. I would only wear concealer, powder, and foundation on special occasions. [...]

Finding the right makeup to match my skin tone has always been something of a challenge. Sure, there are plenty of lines out there, but it has always been something of a trial and error process to find which lines work best for me and my medium brown skin tone.

Who said that good beauty products have to cost a fortune? For me, it doesn’t when using Mario Badescu products. I posted awhile ago about skincare products I was using and Mario Badescu’s Chamomille Night Cream was on my list. Recently, I bought a few more products and I’ve been using them to find some [...]

I’ve always been interested in the contents of one’s medicine or beauty cabinet. I’m always curious to know what products someone uses on their hair, skin, and face. When I first saw this picture of Sofia Coppola’s medicine cabinet in French Vogue, I thought, “Whoa”. But then again, who am [...]

If there is one facial feature that I always strive for perfection then it’d be the eyebrows.
I’m a part of the school of thought that believes the appearance and shape of the brows transform the rest of your face and raggedy brows just aren’t a good look.
Plus, I’ve got something of a wonky left brow [...]

I know, I know, another magazine post, but I had to write about this one. I was actually gearing up to write another beauty post about beauty and pampering products I’ve been into lately, when I saw a link to an article posted on Twitter from Yahoo’s Shine Fashion and Beauty Blog about French Elle’s [...]

Lately, I have been obsessed with having clear and beautiful skin. I recently went to my local Nordstrom spa and got a facial from a outspoken esthetician. She lectured about my skin and was able to conclude that my diet was poor, I’m stressed and whatever products I’m using just ain’t working for me. She [...]

In my teens and earlier twenties, I never wore blush. Unless it was for prom, I just didn’t understand the purpose. I knew what it was for, but I just didn’t think it would enhance my look anyway. That was, until I discovered Nars Orgasm blush.
The picture above is a rough picture of my hand [...]
