Roses are red and this cream helps me from feeling blue!    The beauty goddess must be smiling upon me, because I recently received another amazing Michael Todd True Organics product for review.

MAC Fashion Sets

A late but very pretty review of MAC 2013 Fashion Sets    Do you remember the 2012 MAC Fashion Sets launch? The release created matching sets based on their best-selling products. It’s notable in my mind because it gave me Russian Red lipglass and nail lacquer to pair with my lipstick. (Thanks MAC!) It did [...]

L’Oreal Magic De-Crease Eyelid Primer – swatches and review

By: turboterp on 05/14/13 @ 4:00 am

L'Oreal Magic Decrease

With a wave of this wand, eye makeup magically stay put!    L’Oreal Paris has always been my go-to line for drugstore cosmetics. I love the way I can almost always find L’Oreal dupes of products featured in their parent company’s pricey department store brands (think Lancôme, Urban Decay, and YSL Beauté). Like many of [...]
