That being said, Earth Day is… Continue reading The Beauty of Earth Day: Free for All Birchbox

When it’s Too Hot for Makeup: Pur Minerals 5-Piece Start Now Kit
How do you apply makeup when you have no air conditioning in your bathroom, causing your face to sweat not quite bullets but large tear-shaped drops at minimum before you even walk out the door?

I’ve literally grown up alongside the song and movie, though I never actually listened to the song or watched the movie. As… Continue reading Purple Rain, Purple Rain: Armour Beauty’s Latest in Lip Gloss

Teen Vogue Birchbox
When we fall in love, scientists have found that our brains are literally altered for around 18 months due to the endorphins firing in our brain, causing a natural high. And when you’re high, you sometimes lose a grip on reality and focus on sparkly little details. The sparkly little detail my brain is fixated… Continue reading Teen Vogue Birchbox
