Laura Mercier Foundation Primer Blemish-less

I've been looking for a primer that will help prolong the wear of foundation around my oily nose and chin. While what I've tried so far has made things a little better, overall I haven't found anything significant. Until now!
Sephora Sale Goodies: April 2016

It's funny...the difference between 15% and 20% seems like a lot. For this sale I kept saying, eh it's only 15%. But during the Fall sale I say, oh boy it's 20%!!! All that to say I couldn't decide what to get. My cart changed 10000x's, and at one point I even thought I wouldn't get anything.
Snapchat Tutorial

I downloaded Snapchat a long time ago...tried to use it...promptly got frustrated and decided I didn't get why it was so popular. For some reason I decided to try it again, and kind of forced myself to learn how to use it. Now it's my favorite form of social media!! Why? Because it's so casual
Herbivore Pink Clay Cleansing Bar Soap

I've been interested in exploring the Herbivore line after seeing their Rose Hibiscus Coconut Water Hydrating Face Mist here and there on blogs and Instagram. When I was ready to make an actual purchase, the Mist was OOS on Sephora so I decided to get the Pink Clay Cleansing Bar Soap instead - you k
Makeup Collection: April 2016

My last Makeup Collection post, HERE, was a little over a year ago. I've done a sh*t ton of purging toward the end of last year and over the last many months. Of course, that's somewhat normal around here, but I feel I've outdone myself this time!
Recap: March 2016

I feel like I've made some headway in the not-getting-suckered-into-every-gwp part of my life, and let me tell you March was a BIG test.
2015 Wrap-Up: 4th Quarter Empties & 4th Quarter Goals

I'm going to finally wrap up 2015 by showing my last Empties for the year and tell you how I did with my Oct-Dec Beauty Goals. Oh, and this is a really long post...sorry!!
New In

Hi, guys!!! Sorry I've been gone...it was an unintended absence filled with family stuff and more work than usual! It's nothing bad, just a lot more time consuming and stressy than normal (and my life is generally not filled with stress!!!) so my head was anywhere but blogging ha ha! Hopefully thing
Chanel Mini Reviews

I've been on a Chanel kick lately! Thought I'd share some thoughts on new stuff, new-to-me stuff, PAN and a repurchase...
#bbloggers Notebook

Bronzer Bunny and I have often talked about doing something creative - still blog related, but just something different than talking about beauty!We've tossed around a lot of ideas, and for our first project we decided to do a #bbloggers dedicated journal/notebook!
Samples & GWP's...A Reality Check...

It's that time of year again...when all the big GWP's start showing up - Nordstrom just had one (and has always has smaller ones), as has Beauty.com. SpaceNK is coming up, not to mention the one I wait twice a year for...the Barneys Love Yourself Event. Oh, and CultBeauty should be sometime soon-ish
Recap: January 2016

Since I'm not posting that often (for now), I thought I would try to incorporate an end of month post, where I recap bits and pieces that might otherwise not get mentioned (or not mentioned for awhile) - or hey, maybe just stuff I want to let you know about!!
Revisiting My Collection: Liners

I mentioned HERE that I was going to go through my collection piece by piece. Here's the first installment! By doing this, I'm hoping to achieve the following:Identify any products that need to be purged.Appreciate what I already have rather than always looking for the new.Identify holes in my
Agent Nateur N° 3 Deodorant

Normally I would mention deodorants only in Empties posts, but this one I wanted to talk about because it's been getting a lot of visibility on blogs, videos and magazines.

Sephora Sale Haul + Holiday Giveaway Winners

What better way to come back from a mini break than to show you what I bought from the Sephora sale?!!!
Update On The 2015 Holiday Giveaway

I posted HERE that the Holiday Giveaway 2015 was going to be a surprise! I thought a surprise would be fun and different, but after thinking about it for a bit I realize that might not have been the best idea??? Plus I would hate for someone to win one of the gifts and then have a lot
Beauty Thoughts VI

I've breezed through the Holiday collections more or less unscathed, which I'm very happy about!!!Except for Tom Ford Black Out Lacquer but that's nails and doesn't count. Right. And the little Laura Mercier trio (here) because I'm almost finished (SERIOUSLY almost finished with a highlighter c
