Physician’s Formula Eyeliner Trio

The drugstore is a treasure trove of good eyeliner. I refuse to buy pricy eyeliner because there is no difference between a $6 Rimmel liner and a $40 YSL one. My latest discovery is no exception. Physician’s Formula Kohl Kajal Eyeliner Trio is $12 for 3 and gives you a myriad of makeup opportunities. Ladies, this set […]

Bioderma Créaline

Makeup is a beautiful thing. Taking makeup off, however, is a taxing process. Our cleansers are expected to perform double duty: remove and cleanse. But how can a cleanser do its job when you’ve got a layer of foundation in the way? It can’t. So unless you are a lucky civilian who doesn’t violently react […]

Monthly Moodboard: August 2014

Things are getting a little emotional over on my end. This weekend marked one of my last weekends at home before I leave for college, and I’m sad to leave behind my family and friends. Between work, friends, and getting ready for school, I feel like I have no time to catch my breath. In […]

Monthly Moodboard: July 2014

It’s too hot for most activities these days, so minimal makeup, a pair of sunglasses and a dress are the only things I’m reaching for. Also, workout gear (even when I’m not working out, sorry!) is the first thing I put on when the temperature is 95+. Happy July! where to find me :: TWITTER ::: INSTAGRAM ::: FACEBOOK ::: TUMBLR

An Ode to Powder…

Why is my makeup sliding off my face? A question I asked myself far to frequently. I spend so much time buying/applying/obsessing over makeup, why can’t I even keep it on my face? I was doing it all wrong, and I’m sorry. I strayed away from the tried and true face powder, in an attempt […]

Lisa Eldridge, Youtube makeup phenom and makeup artist to the stars, teamed up with Chung (one of her regulars) to film the best makeup tutorial to grace the world wide web. We’re […]

Event Nails: Polished to Perfection

A look isn’t complete without a manicure, right? At least I’d like to think so. I made a visit to my favorite salon Olive & June to take a peek at the hottest polish duos for spring (… and get a mani myself, of course). Pastels are dominating every ad/collection/Instagram, but I couldn’t resist a couple […]

Drugstore Chronicles: Mascara

I’m a firm believer that you don’t need to spend your dough on expensive mascara. It’s a nice luxury, but I always find myself going back to the basics. Aka, the drugstore. My drugstore favorite mascara is BY FAR Covergirl Clump Crusher. It’s a good formula, and unlike most drugstore mascaras, it has a great wand. It’s […]

The Truth Behind “Airbrush” Foundation

Is it worth the hype? That was my initial question, and I’m sure many people are feeling the same way. There are so many stellar products on the market, but it’s virtually impossible for a foundation to make us appear like we’re out of a Chanel ad. One, we don’t want to look like a […]
