My head is so far removed from the ideas of sponsorships and influencers that I hadn't realized that I inadvertently signed up to be one, albeit I was hardly active. I even got the badge that tells me I'm one. 😐

BBA Musings # 2 – Online Browsing is the New Window Shopping
Window shopping used to be a pastime reserved for trips to the mall or as a means of detaching yourself from the routine of every day - but with the advent of the Internet, we've now turned to a new window - a strictly electronic version of whatever browser we use.
WWR: Mally Beauty Nude Attitude
The first time I became aware of Mally Beauty was when my cousin and I visited Ulta and we happen to wander by the shelf space that the brand occupied. My cousin told me that her maternal aunt used their products via QVC and that it worked well for her. At that point, I felt …
The IMATS 2018 Deets
That I forgot to dish on. This one got put on a backburner in the midst of quitting my Pharmacy Technician job, flying back to my birth country, and finding work again as soon as I flew back (I actually was unemployed when I flew out), and my grandpa's health scare. To quote Morton Salt: …
One Trick Pony
Or the reality of burnout in a super-saturated industry. I stopped keeping up with the latest-and-greatest releases in makeup. Even skincare. I'm tired and I just don't care anymore. Edit # 2: After some tinkering, here is the GIF that should have been here in the first place: One (if not THE NUMBER ONE) unspoken …

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 …
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 …
