Here's a roundup of my reviews of the eight, new and limited edition shades of lipstick from the For spring, there are eight new, limited edition shades of YSL x Zoe Kravitz Rouge Pur Couture Collection ($38.00 each). YSL does seem to know how to do a nice red, even if some of us may be duped to the...
Nope! I avoid going in-store in general, so I probably only headed over a dozen times or less in a year… usually if the release was urgent and released in-store the same day as online.

The same as always for me — which is pretty comfortable, but I got used to not living near any retailers and buying everything online… to the point where I definitely prefer it.
More recently, the “worst” is more like the most annoying, which is Neiman Marcus, who may ship your online order from stores across the country. This results in an order of say, 12 eyeliners, coming in six boxes that are all standard size (which I get from a theft standpoint). It’s so much...

Admittedly, most of my favorites are powder blushes, but they tend to have the better longevity in terms of sitting around in a drawer being used a handful of times a year (I don’t keep most of the cream products I tested due to shelf life!). When powder blushes are too dry, they can be harder to apply and blend out, and it can be frustrating to try and fix that type of error/issue.
