Beauty, Skincare, and a bit of Lifestyle
Colour Prevails is that brand at my local drugstore that I always see, admire the pretty packaging…but haven’t tried anything from. To be honest, I think after three years of blogging about beauty I’ve only ever see one other person share a review on the products in this line. So, I asked on my Snapchat if you guys would be interested in a review of some of the products in the line and I got so many requests for a review…so I went shopping!
It’s time for another Glossybox unboxing — and this time the July Glossybox! If you are following me on Snapchat, you know that I was very, very pleased with my box initially. But since getting it in the mail I’ve been able to test out (almost) all the products that I received in the box and…my thoughts have changed a bit. Keep reading to find out why!
Smashbox has been so generous in flooding me with new releases! I’ve already reviewed their color correcting sticks HERE, but shortly after sharing that post they sent me a bunch more products within a few weeks, so I decided to share my reviews on each of the products that are new from Smashbox with you in one (big) post! While there were several products that have quickly become favorites of mine…a few weren’t so amazing. Let’s dive right in!
It’s been a while since I’ve shared recent beauty favorites — I used to do it monthly, but I just wasn’t discovering many true beauty favorites within a months time, so I opted to not share a post than to throw together a bunch of products that I wasn’t truly in love with. Which is why I’ll be doing them seasonally from now on.
It’s been a hot minute since I’ve tried a new mascara and this new Fully Charged Magnetic mascara from PUR Cosmetics has been giving my lashes life recently. Ever since it arrived, really. My lashes have been really sad ever since my postpartum hair loss started kicking into full swing (no one ever told me you also loose lashes! 😮 ) so I’ve been needing a good mascara to amp up the volume for me!
I shared on Snapchat a few weeks back when I purchased the Revlon ColorStay ‘Not Just Nudes’ Romantic Nudes palette and I’m finally able to share my complete thoughts with you today! It’s always exciting when the drugstore brings out a big eyeshadow palette — I reviewed the L’Oreal Color Riche La Palette Nude2 palette right when it was released! — and the hope is that it’ll be just as good as a high-end eyeshadow palette. Did this Not Just Nudes palette meet my expectations? 🙂
St Patrick’s Day is just around the corner! And in the spirit of the holiday I decided to create an eye look that incorporated both green and gold. I was recently sent the new gold liquid liner from Youngblood and thought it would be perfect to use in this eye look. I wanted to keep this look fun, but wearable, for a day of festivities, but it would be really easy to tone it down a bit for just a regular day at the office. 🙂
