Beauty Backups

December 2, 2020

Imagine you find the perfect lipstick or blush or a skin care item and then it gets discontinued! That is disappointing…right?

This has happened to me a couple of times. And I bet it has happened to countless other beauty lovers all over the world. I have on occasion bought backups of my favorite makeup product and if I remember correctly, one time a body wash.

I have purchased a backup of my most loved blush which is, NARS Madly, because my current one is getting over. This will not happen any time soon. And there was a rumor …

What do you think about Nail Art?

November 25, 2020

Do you like it, love it, or think it’s tacky? I fall somewhere in between. Sometimes I like it and sometimes I don't. I like simple designs, or maybe a nail sticker on an accent nail. That does not take much effort but gives your look a unique creative twist.

Most of the time I will apply some glitter top coat, or a confetti top coat and that's my nail art. On my nails Essie nail polish in Bahama Mama and Essie Top Coat. I got these beautiful nail art tapes on Amazon.

Fall Nail Colors

November 22, 2020

I love nail polish. Though the title says Fall nail colors, I wear any nail color that calls out to me. What I mean is I do not keep certain colors for specific seasons. I wear red during the Holiday season and also enjoy wearing it whenever I feel like irrespective of it being the Holidays or not. That being said, I definitely can relate to wearing some bright or pastel colors during summer and darker shades during fall & winter.

For today's post I have 5 nail colors that I am into these days. A few from Essie, my …

November 12, 2020

How do you start your makeup? Do you do your eyes first and then the rest of your face or vice versa? I always do my eyes first and then my face. It helps that after my eye is done, I can clean up my under eye area before doing my face. I always apply sunscreen first, and apply my face and eye primer after the sunscreen dries. Today I have a quick review of two NYX Jumbo Eye pencils and Epic Eyeliner in Brown.

Bareminerals BOUNCE & BLUR Eyeshadow Palette Review

November 8, 2020

Sitting at home during the quarantine, I find myself focusing more on skin care, than makeup. Somehow, I miss my daily routine of getting ready for work in the morning. I would use certain products for a few days, then shop my stash and find different palettes, shades etc and use them for a few days. I loved to switch up my routine every few days. Today was the last day of my kids' school and we went to school to wave goodbye to all the staff, teachers, school nurse, paraprofessionals. I leaped at this opportunity and decided to wear …

This addiction is not dangerous for you, however the same can't be said about your wallet. In this post I have a review of my favorite Lip Balms Tinted and Clear.…
