Lips, prepare to be wowed by Ellis Faas…

By: Krista Patterson on 03/17/10 @ 10:27 pm

When I received a couple of lip products for review from the brand, Ellis Faas, my first thought was Who/What the heck is Ellis Faas? The answer to my question made me very excited to open the boxes. She is a European makeup artist that Vogue Paris hailed as one of the most [...]




Make-Up Designory – MUD Lip Glaze review

I’m a lipgloss junkie. I have it all, my trusty Blistex, painful plumping versions, Lip Smackers á la eighth grade…well, you get the idea. But until now, I’ve never found a gloss I was willing to go nude for.
As soon as I got my hands on MUD’s full line of [...]




Sonya Dakar Ultraluxe collection – review

By: Melissa on 03/16/10 @ 12:24 am

I was a teenage sun goddess. The lengths to which I’d go to catch a few rays were legendary– skipping school to lay out on metal bleachers in the football stadium in my bra and panties comes to mind. I think my goth years, during which I cultivated a healthy “pale,” might have [...]

Producing a line not only created with the best ingredients, but also packaged in total finery. Seriously, think about Lights, Camera, Lashes!mascara or their [...]

Now, I’m inclined to believe that the tendency and passion for bargain-hunting is genetic. Here’s why: As young girl, I always had a love for shopping. For new clothes, shoes, makeup and such. (Hence my rabid amour for we heart this!) But I never really understood that prices are but merely [...]




Erno Laszlo Sea Mud Soap – oily skin’s best friend

By: sherrishera on 03/10/10 @ 12:09 am

There is just something about the sea—its healing powers are mythological; its calming effect on the psyche is profound. The sea refreshes, rejuvenates and transforms. Happiness assaults the senses with the first breath of clean, salty ocean air. A swim in its waters can refresh the body and the mind. The sound of [...]




Armour Beauty – lip gloss for your wild side

By: kari on 03/9/10 @ 12:14 am

photo: we heart this
At some point, everyone has imagined themselves as a rock star; jumping on the bed and belting songs into a hairbrush, playing to thousands of adoring fans (or was that just me?) Maybe fantasizing the fabulous parties, amazing clothes and your own personal beauty stylist? While we may not have become [...]
