Like I mentioned in the BBA Insta, some people got bae. I got me. And for Valentine's Day, I decided to treat myself to a 5-piece Artis brush set because I wanted to see what the hype was all about. Price aside, the biggest appeal of any Artis brush is the soft bristle. This thing …

IMATS NYC 2017
What's up, Beautiful Blossoms? I hope you're all alive and reasonably well in spite of all the craziness that's happening all over the planet. But I'm not gonna make this into a political rant (because there's just an oversaturation oozing from pretty much every major media outlet in existence) because even I'm tired of it. …
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 …
Day 4: I Quit This Challenge.
Yep. I am officially throwing in the towel on my self-imposed challenge. The more I tried to get myself to be enthusiastic about cracking open my Vice 4 palette, the more frustrated I became with using it. And no brush I owned in my arsenal could transfer the damn eyeshadow from pan to palette the …
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 …
What Went Wrong: WnW Reserve Your Cabana
What's up, Beautiful Blossoms? My chronic depression did not win today so here I am with a blog entry! And it's been a while since I posted a product disappointment to me, so I figured I'd post one - and it's about a hyped product to boot! And yep, another new series: What Went Wrong. …
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 …
