Before I get pelted with rotten vegetables, hear me out first, please? I'm aware of Too Faced's cult favorite status, thanks in part to their Chocolate-themed palettes Chocolate Bar, Bon-Bons, Semi-Sweet, and their Melted Chocolate liquid lipstick. But lately, the company has been causing quite the toothache with their recent palette, Sweet Peach, and their …

TRE: Finger-Lickin’ Good (Literally)
Heylo, BBs and happy Sunday! I hope you all had a good day celebrating the commercial Mother's Day with your moms or mom-figures, whether that be in person or paying their grave a visit. And no, I didn't forget today's entry: I had spent nearly every day looking for a video editing program for my …
TRE: $17,000 Makeup Splurge
Or how my latest bout of depression has left me emotionally crippled for hours on end to the point where I'm convinced there is no end in sight. Hullo, BBs. Yes, I'm aware that today is Monday. I do apologize for the fact that I just can't be on schedule with my posts. Aside from …

I wish I could start this entry with the jovial enthusiasm that I've always had when writing The Raised Eyebrow - but these words would never deliver the weight that I feel on my shoulders or the cloud that looms over my head whenever I undergo a bout of depression. If you …
Currently Obsessed: Clinique Skincare
Surprise! And no, I didn't make a posting mistake by doing a Currently Obsessed entry on a Saturday - I did promise a double post yesterday but I couldn't be on the computer and type away after work and I didn't get back home until midnight. I was surprised I was even able to coherently …
Currently Obsessed Round Up
Yes, I'm aware of the date that this entry is being posted to. And yes, I'm aware that yesterday was April Fool's, when the entire Internet is suspicious of everything it comes across. Now that the dust has settled and the jokes have come and passed, it's time to get back into the swing of …
