When I wanted to create an online presence to discuss my personal beauty preference(s), blogging was the first thing to come to mind. At the time, many people were flocking to YouTube with the hopes that they'd be the next big beauty channel with subscribers, free PR, and millions of views. From a business standpoint, …

Outside My Beauty Bubble (Part 3)
In the last entry, I mentioned a brand that I had no access to in the US: BYS Cosmetics. The brand hails from Australia and is mainly available to Southeast Asia, Australia (obviously), parts of Europe and the Middle East, Southern Africa, and in Colombia and (soon) Chile in South America. At this time, there …
Outside My Beauty Bubble (2)
In the previous entry, I dabbled a bit about coming across counterfeit makeup. I've seen Internet talk about their existence and even saw news reports about them, but to see them in person is a bit of a rarity. You see, in NYC, counterfeits of major makeup brands is rare to see - there's just …
Outside My Beauty Bubble (1)
Hello, blogosphere! No, I haven't kicked the bucket - it is 5:04 AM as I type this sentence, and I'm just going to provide a quick TL;DR version as to why I have pretty much fallen off the face of the blogosphere. 1. Quit my job as a Pharm Tech almost a month ago. Only …
IMATS Weekend!
IT'S FINALLY HERE! IMATS AT NYC! I've been looking forward to this weekend since last year - there are some newcomers coming in and my go to regulars are back to take another crack at my poor wallet. Deets to follow. DEETS! 😂

Or maybe they finally got the chance to get a gift for someone else. There will always be that air of mystery surrounding those black-and-white striped …
Breather.
Hello, Beautiful Blossoms. Yes, it's me. And no, the site is not dead. It's just that so much has happened these past few months that it would be much simpler to list them in bullet points: New place but no steady Internet. Fender bender that's costing me quite the pretty penny. New job has me …
A Quick Life Update
Hi Beautiful Blossoms! I have a bit of downtime with my extra work shift so I figured I'd check in to see what was the last thing I wrote here. And it was a pretty dark entry, especially with what happened when it was written. Today's post has a bit more cheer: I managed to pass …
The BBA Makeup Workhorses
Hey, Beautiful Blossoms! I'm glad to be able to sneak in a blog entry today - between working my regular and overtime hours, shuffling between the old apartment and the new house, and trying to get my licensing exam in order, it's nice to be able to talk about something that's completely unrelated to all …
A Breather Entry
Hey Beautiful Blossoms! After being on hiatus for over a month, I finally got the chance to come back and just do a quick entry - I hadn't realized that the last entry that I wrote was on March 7, but that's what happens when moving plans fall apart get delayed, family members have a …
