It was a widely-held belief that the cosmetic industry is (almost) recession-proof, and it's easy to see why - how many times have makeup lovers declared that their favorite makeup item would have to be pried from their cold, dead hands? Or the countless times that if a decision had to be made between makeup …

BBA Musings # 1: Dermaplaning / Shaving
My brows have a blunt way of reminding me of my self-neglect by simply growing. It didn't matter what direction they pointed to - just that they grew. And grew. To the point where I didn't recognize myself when I stared at the mirror, when I could afford more than a quick glance at my …
Choosing Platforms: YouTube vs Blogging
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, …
Life Update Part 2
So I decided to give the good ol' site a browse from an outside perspective and I noticed that I wrote an entry that had Part 1. I remember writing that title because there was going to be Part 2. And I intended to write Part 2 but when life sent me on a tide, …
Life Update Part 1
Holy shit, a new post from BBA! Yes, it's been a good while since I last posted - I've been busy with short staff at work, moving issues, career change, running a giveaway for the first time, and minor body issues. I'm gonna split the updates into parts so you don't get blinded with lengthy …
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 …
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 …
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 …
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 1 of 30: Disaster
It is now 10:54 P.M. I haven't even out on my UD PP nor do I have the Vice 4 ready to go. This is already a disaster. And yet here I am, fussing about the location of my Duo Lash Glue.
