Me and Instagram Cateyes.

Or, to be fair, it's more drag makeup cateyes than Instagram cateyes. Anyway, I finally convinced myself to practice cateye makeup after telling myself (and buying a couple of e.l.f. eyeliners for practice) that I need to do it to get better with the cateye. Because I have shitty hand-eye coordination and, if you noticed …

2017: Year of Moar Selfies

That's right: this year, I'm going to try and work up the nerve to post more selfies. While wearing a face full of what's in my stash. I'm not a selfie person. To me, people who constantly take selfies are perceived as narcissists - it doesn't bother me if you're by yourself and snapping away, …

When You Have a Massive Makeup Collection

And most of it has already been reviewed to death by other beauty bloggers / vloggers because it's all about the latest and the greatest... I swear, I probably made a blog post similar to this at some point last year but I can't remember and I don't feel any motivation to go through my …

Cubicle Makeup.

Or the frustration of wearing eyeshadows with them not being noticed.  At one point or another, you've heard about it or noticed that every brand's got that one palette with safe colors.  Cubicle makeup. Sometimes called "professional setting makeup, "office makeup," "work-safe," or something along that line. There's always a new term used to describe the …

Day 3 of 30: Frustration Outlet

Heylo, Beautiful Blossoms. I felt well enough to make an entry from this year's flu (very, very contagious) which had me tossing and turning in bed because my joints were achy - something that I've never had happen to me in all my years of having the flu. I also needed to let out some …

Day 2 of 30: Decisions, Decisions…

While I'm waiting for the Urban Decay Primer Potion to dry a bit, I managed to find my Vice 4. And I learned that I am rather shitty when it comes to keeping my palette brushes clean: I haven't washed the double ended brush that came in the Vice 4. But that's minor compared to …

30 Days with my Vice 4

During another period of boredom / mind off to the great beyond at work, I surfed the Internet for what's new in makeup. And then I find myself remembering the eyeshadow palettes that I already have (enough to cover nearly every color available).  And rather than get frustrated with seeing pics of eyeshadows being showcased …

Trying to Find My Way Back

I remember the time when blogging was still in its infancy: people were posting regularly about their personal lives, innermost thoughts, secrets and gossips shared, . Blogging served as a place to vent frustrations, share dreams and goals, or promote enthusiasm about a personal favorite. Viewership wasn't a big deal back then - at least, …

Arm Swatches: Good for Pigmentation.

That's it. That's all they're good for. They're not an accurate representation of what the product is going to look like on its designated body part. So when people do those arm swatches of lip products? Yeah, they look nice and swanky, but you won't really know if they'll end up in every crack or …
