Hello everyone! This week I’m reviewing the Origins Original Skin Matte Moisturizer. I received a full-size container of this product from Influenster, complimentary for testing. It also came with a trial size of the Origins Original Skin Renewal Serum and the Origins Original Skin Retexturing Mask. To get a true reading of these products, I’ve been using them for the past month. It takes about 3 weeks for your skin to adjust to new skincare products so I wanted to give these products a fair chance. This is how everything was packaged and sent to me: Let start out with the full-size product. The Original Skin Matte Moisturizer retails for $34 and…

So, this week I’m sharing what I picked up during this sale. I’m keeping this post laid back as well as short and sweet because it has just been one of those weeks. Let’s jump right into the haul! In my first order, I picked up the Nars Narsissist Cheek Studio Palette at 50% off the original price! As a long time lover of the Nars Orgasm blush, I’ve been wanting to…

Lorac Pirates of the Caribbean Review
Hello everyone! This week I have a review of some more items I got for my birthday! As a huge Disney fan, I love when they partner with cosmetics companies because, as Hannah Montana would say, it’s the best of both worlds! I get to play with amazing makeup that is themed with some of my favorite Disney movies. First, let’s talk about the eyeshadow palette. It retails for $52 and comes with 18 shades. According to the Lorac Cosmetics website: This palette features 18 brand-new PRO-formula eye shadows inspired by the film and a deluxe mini Front of the Line PRO Eye Pencil in black to craft a smoky,…

Milani Cosmetics Contour & Highlight Duo Review
Hello everyone! With the rising popularity of cream contour, I wanted to try out a drugstore version before diving into more expensive options. I don’t usually cream contour but thought I’d give it a try. I also threw in a bonus jonas review of the Make It Last Setting Spray since I’ve heard such good things about it! I decided to try this contour stick from Milani Cosmetics. Not only was it the most neutral shade I could find, but it also had a liquid highlight on the opposite end. This product retails for $11 and I bought mine from my local CVS. According to the Milani website, Contour &…

Liquid Lip Showdown: Kylie Cosmetics Velvet Formula vs. Crème Formula
Hello everyone! Ever since Kylie started branching out into different liquid lipstick formulas, I’ve been intrigued by how they all compare to each other. Obviously, a matte liquid lip dries down completely and will not transfer while her two newer formulas, the velvets and the crèmes, don’t dry down and aren’t transfer proof. I haven’t really had the chance to try out the crème formula, which debuted with the KKW collection, and have been curious how they compare to each other. So, this week I’ll be putting the two formulas against each other to test out the differences between them and to see which one I might like better! Let’s start with…

Kylie Cosmetics 2017 Birthday Collection Haul
Hello everyone! This week I’m sharing what I purchased from this years’ Kylie Cosmetics Birthday collection. I had planned to post this last week but I placed two separate orders and one of the orders didn’t come in time. So I pushed it to this week! 😜 This years’ collection didn’t wow me like last years’ did. It reminded me a lot of the Valentines Day collection from earlier this year so I wasn’t really drawn to many items. My favorite item from the collection was the bedazzled Candy K matte liquid lipstick but I couldn’t justify spending $60 on a lipstick that didn’t even come with a liner. Here’s what…

Bésame Cosmetics Snow White Eye Shadow Palette Review
Hello everyone! This week I’m sharing one of the purchases I made at D23 Expo 2017. This year, Bésame Cosmetics had a booth in the expo hall and I was super excited to see a beauty brand at a Disney expo! I’ve wanted to try makeup from this brand for a while and I’m glad I had the chance to see the products in person at the expo. The main reason they were at the expo is to advertise their collaboration with Disney! They will be releasing a Snow White collection of products in September and I can’t wait to get my hands on other items from this collection! At…

Morphe x Jaclyn Hill Palette Review
Hello everyone! This week we’ll be talking about the new Morphe collaboration palette with Jaclyn Hill. With a restock coming this month, I thought it’d be the perfect time to review it. First, I need to apologize for the lighting in the pictures. I thought I had figured out a good place to take pictures. I found a great place to take pictures but it was too early in the morning so they turned out darker than I’d prefer.With that out of the way, let’s jump into the review! I purchased my palette during the first release of the palette so I’ve had some time to play around with it…
