The Best & Worst of Sephora Lipstories Lipsticks

The Best & Worst of Sephora Lipstories Lipsticks

Sephora Lipstories Lipstick ($8.00 for 0.14 oz.) is supposed to be "lightweight" with "full-coverage color in one swipe."

What kind of marketing materials do you want brands to put out?

What kind of marketing materials do you want brands to put out?

I love great imagery of the products in action that aren’t altered/edited to the point where it’s unrealistic. I like seeing tutorials and how-tos from the brand, especially when they included tips and tricks. I love how ColourPop has swatch videos of their upcoming collections, which I find...

What are your minimum requirements for an eyeshadow palette?

What are your minimum requirements for an eyeshadow palette?
