True Blue Naked Cotton Dress Shea Light Body Lotion ($15.00 for 6.7 oz.) is a lightweight body lotion that keeps moderate-to-dry skin well-hydrated and feeling silky soft. In a market saturated with body creams and souffles, a body lotion is always a welcome addition. The product absorbs into skin...

Make Up For Ever: Eyeshadows #304, 34, 302, 168, 93 (Greens & Teals)
If you know me, you know I'm a big fan of green eyeshadow. So is it really any surprise that I have five more green/teal shadows to share with you?
- #304 is a shimmery, chartreuse-y green. It's very much like #171, and at the time of purchase, I was a bit frazzled and quick...

What is the most expensive beauty product/tool you own? Was it worth it?

The Clarisonic is one that sticks out in my mind; I'd definitely say it was worth it! That or the T3, which was also WAY worth it.

YSL Everlong Waterproof Mascara in Ever Peacock Blue Review & Photos
YSL Everlong Waterproof Mascara in Ever Peacock Blue Review & Photos
This summer, YSL launched a new shade of Everlong Waterproof Mascara -- Ever Peacock Blue ($28.50). It's described as a "luminous blue," though I would say it's more like a rich navy blue with just a hint of green in it. The above photo used a primer base (MAC Prep + Prime Lash), and then a few...
