If I had to choose one drugstore makeup brand…heck…ANY makeup brand to buy for the rest of my life, I would choose Maybelline. I feel like they have a solid face game with their Fit Me and their Instant Age Rewind Foundation & Concealers. Their mascaras are great! Falsies and Illegal Lengths are both so good. They have amazing eyeshadow palettes and espeicially their Color Tattoo eyeshadows. (Bad to the Bronze = ALL TIME FAVORITE.) Their ColorShow nail polish is reasonably priced and actually really good! I have found that their Color Whispers and Vivids have done a great job as far as their lipsticks have gone, but all they were…

Benefit Cosmetics is famous for their gorgeous, pinup-esque packaging and marketing, with one of their most iconic products being their boxed blushes. I had never been compelled to buy a full sized one because I just felt like there were other blushes that would be more worth my money, even if it weren’t true.

Place a tiny dot of dish soap or anti-bacterial soap on the palm of your hand. 2. Wet the hairs of the brush lightly and swirl in the soap. I do circles on my hand and when it gets…

Glam Glow Super-Mud Mask I get probably 20-25 samples per month. I usually try 2-5 of them per month. However, I was super excited to see a little packet of Glam Glow’s Super-Mud mask in my box of samples. My samples had gotten so out of control that I had to clean out my samples. I also have NO CLUE where I got this sample from either. Possibly Sephora? Maybe Glossybox? I’m not entirely sure. But obviously, it didn’t phase me at the time. But upon a second look, I had become all the wiser…and set this on top of my vanity to try out. OH. WOW. Guys, this…
