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. I did buy the Coral My World set that includes a mini Coralista blush and a mini Sun Beam. I mean, you guys know how I feel about mini products! Rockateur changed my mind, finally.

I just feel like it’s an awkward thing to do. “Uh…hey, wanna come snap a few photos of me and my clothes?” Whatever my problem, these bathroom pics just aren’t working out. You can’t even tell my jeans are jeans in my full picture! I’m working on it, guys! Beyond that, I hope this outfit inspires you!

I found them at Marshall’s in the…

Do you ladies wash your brushes at least once a week? I don’t. I know, SO GROSS…but I forget to! (My bad.) I probably do it every 3-4 weeks or as-needed. (But I should do it more often.) For so long, I was using “brush cleansers.” By MAC or Sonia Kashuk…but I have found that best my brushes ever look and feel is when I follow this easy brush-washing technique. 1. 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…
