This is one category of products that has some of the weakest organization in my stash! I keep some of my favorites in my vanity drawer, while the formulas I currently reach for the most are on top of the vanity. I keep my shades in various formulas in open bins on a near-by storage unit, but I find...
LOVE! I am not super keen when they use larger particle-sized sparkle (or glitter), as that can be irritating and harder to apply evenly as the particles almost move the pigmentation/base product. I love more pearl-like and metallic eyeliners, though–especially for pops of color.

NARS Air Matte Blushes, NARS Air Matte Liquid Lipsticks, Sydney Grace Pistol Loose Pigment. They’re already in the bin of things to give away (to family/friends).
Sundays are for readers! Each week, on Sunday, I like to see what the community has been enjoying.
"Most Loved" are products that readers specifically loved but didn't add to their wish list (). "Most Wanted" are products that readers specifically added to their wish lists (). This is populated based...
I love seeing smaller palettes! I think it’s a nice way to try different brands, color stories, and not have to spend a ton on of money. It takes so long to finish an eyeshadow, even smaller sizes (like 0.03 oz.), and even if I was someone who did finish, I’d prefer to buy a fresh replacement...
Hope your weekend is starting off on the right note! Every Saturday, I like to share the top 10 products from the last week of reviews. It's a nice way to highlight what reviews have been published recently. Similarly, I love reading--and I know others enjoy sharing!--their own "week in review"...
Hard to say, but lately, I feel sad about Urban Decay’s trajectory over the last five years. I used to get so excited for their launches but now it’s almost like waiting to be disappointed each time.
Share your recent beauty purchases or rediscovered favorites in your stash (for those on low/no-buys!), chit chat about weekend plans, and learn a little more about each other!
Sydney Grace! Compared to a lot of other indie brands that are talked about, they have a lot less followers than I’d expect! They have so many great products, which is the primary reason to try (duh!), but they are actually one of the better indie buying experiences one can have since they...
If money was not a concern, sure, I’d probably give it a go, but my hesitation is always the huge investment that brand building requires and the steep learning curve if one goes it alone. I’d want to do something mid-end so there was enough room for it to be carried at retailers in the future...
