  First of all, hello Packaging Porn. These sleek little pens are so cool looking, you might mistake them for an actual pen. I also received creamy lips.
  However, I was not impressed with the texture, it just seemed like tinted vaseline and it left my lips feeling really chapped.

  This is a new concept to me – but I am an avid lover of Half Price books, but sometimes their selections are somewhat limited (at least in the categories that interest me). I love a used book, they have so much character. And I just hate forking over $25 for a hardcover [...]

  I am totally with you, Melissa, that good skincare has to start young. I consider myself lucky to have learned it young (and at 24, I won’t complaing of being that old) but I really hope that my skin is still looking fresh and bright compared to some of my tanning-bed worshipping, and altogether [...]

• Katie Groves commented on the blog post tarte Smooth Operator and Provocateur review   5 days, 12 hours ago
  

  I Heart Tarte. In truth, the Smooth Operator Tinted Moisturizer/Faux Foundation is just the first of many products from Tarte that I fell in love with. Christy is absolutely correct in her description of how the product can be easily layered for a fuller coverage, and you do get a really nice glow! [...]

• Katie Groves commented on the blog post Erno Laszlo Sea Mud Soap – oily skin’s best friend   1 week, 1 day ago
  

  So, I like to feel squeaky clean after washing off my makeup, but not like the moisture has been sucked from every cell in my body. I am also a huge fan of clay masks as anyone who’s kept up with my reviewing over the years knows! So, I really LOVE this bar [...]

• Katie Groves commented on the blog post Armour Beauty – lip gloss for your wild side   1 week, 1 day ago
  

  I’m just sort of So/So about these. Diana is a pretty mauve-y, nude-y pink and it looked really great over my nude bobby brown lip pencil! I like the bubble gum scent and I didn’t mind the stickiness – i felt the gloss stayed on really well. But given a choice between [...]

  WHAT!?!?! You found NARS at TJ Maxx?!?!?! Where do you live? I’m jealous!

• Katie Groves wrote a new blog post: The Ultimate Bargain-Hunter’s Guide to the Galaxy   1 week, 2 days ago
  

  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 [...]

• Katie Groves commented on the blog post Armour Beauty – lip gloss for your wild side   1 week, 4 days ago
  

  Always a trial with a new lipgloss — you never know what you’re going to get. I liked the yummy bubble gum scent (though not flavor) of Diana, a mauvey natural looking pink that gave a good subtle pink–especially over the top of a neutral lip pencil.
  I don’t mind a gloss that’s [...]

  Caramel? Whiskey? This is the kind of poison I would pick!

  You can’t forget to watch “Fasion Police” on E! afterwards either! With Joan Rivers, Guiliana, Khloe and Mr. Jay… excellent combination!

• Katie Groves commented on the blog post Dr. Dennis Gross Alpha Beta Daily Peel review   1 month ago
  

  I like this product. I love the “pads” makes me thinkg back to the days when I used Noxema “pads” (i.e. astringent) to wash my face. It’s really cool how smooth and bright that they can leave your skin. However, I never thought that it was anything miraculous.
  I am a [...]

  Of course! I love me some bargains!

• Katie Groves commented on the blog post My mortifying first period story   1 month ago
  

  I had just turned 12, and luckily I was prepared enough and my mother was home when I got my first. I can’t think of anything particularly embarrassing…
  My dad tried to embarrass me at a dinner party with old family friends recently, telling a story about how I made him bring me clean underwear [...]

• Katie Groves commented on the blog post Smashbox Heartbreaker Collection review   1 month, 1 week ago
  

  I saw the “Hot Date” palette in Sephora before Christmas when I went in “only to buy mascara” and actually left with “only mascara and the Hot Date” palette. I love greens and neutrals and done the right way, greens can be a subtle daytime look. I have always thought Smashbox has some of [...]

• Katie Groves commented on the blog post Julie Hewett Aphrodite bronzer – review   1 month, 1 week ago
  

  I’ve tried a lot of bronzers in my day -and not many of them really cut it. NARS Laguna is good, Tarte Park Avenue Princess is not bad, Too Faced packs in the shimmer.
  Julie Hewett’s Aphrodite is a beautiful light gold shimmer – and man is the pigment really packed in. I concur [...]
