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 [...]
They’re like flowers blooming on your fingertips! I’m sad to report I have the blackest thumb. Plants, even ones that people insist are indestructible, die while in my care.

A look at the red, orange, pink & coral side of the lipstick rainbow Sometimes I get up crazy early in the morning, like 4:30 am, for a job where I am counseling patients and expected to look professional at such a horrid hour. And honestly a lot of the time at 4:30, I [...]
One trip to Target + One Covergirl Tropical Fusion palette = Four variations of bright eye shadow Nothing signifies the start of spring for me like the uncontrollable desire for bright makeup. From hot pink lips to beached-hued eyes, the second the thermometer rises even a bit – I’m on it. For today’s Target Style [...]
Don’t you just love Target’s ads? They’re probably one of the only commercials that I actually watch because they’re just so clever.
