Do you ever wear makeup to alter your mood?

Oh, absolutely! I find that there’s something relaxing and soothing about sitting down and doing my makeup each day. It’s such a massive part of my day-to-day routine that skipping it often feels like a sign there’s too much going on elsewhere (and usually not in a good way!). Most of the...

Natasha Denona Palette 05 Eyeshadow Palette

Natasha Denona Palette 05 Eyeshadow Palette 5 ($48.00 for 0.4 oz.) includes all shimmers, though two shades were more satin-to-pearl, but I suspect most will pair this with existing matte shades they enjoy. I felt like the quality was too mixed at this price point to...
