Blissoma by Irie Star Adaptive Energy Tonique

$21.99

I’ve posted before about toner, and how it may or may not be necessary  and how my favorite Laura Mercier makeup artist told me that is wrecks your skin. I have also written about how I have changed how I use toner. Instead of swiping it on with a cotton pad, I spray it on- and I have never looked back. I think its either the change in method or its this toner. Because recently I have changed a few things in my skin care regime, and my skin is looking way better. Continue reading →

Your hair tells you a lot about your health. If your stressed, malnourished, tired etc. your hair will show it. You can’t hide the fact that you eat nothing but popcorn, arugala and Diet Coke from your friends when you hair looks like straw and is falling out. Continue reading →

Sprout Lip Balm in Cinnamon

$5.00

More info HERE

Any reader of this blog knows how much I love lip balm. I have not counted my stash of lip products recently, that could be another post, but I know that its at least 100. Nevertheless, when it comes to most lip balms I have not that much to say, they are balms, they are okay. But sometimes I come across a balm that I cannot stop applying. Sprout lip balm did not start out that way. Continue reading →

Korres Pomegranate Mattifying Pore Minimizing Skin Perfecting Primer

$33.00

Primer is one of those things, that you don’t really think you need. I mean its an extra step in the whole process, but what it promises might be worth that extra 15 seconds. This is the only primer I have found that does not have dimethicone in it, a chemical that aggravates my acne prone skin almost immediately. Continue reading →

What the F is Lip Tar?

I had seen this stuff and written it off as super cheap and not worth my time.

Then, after some happenstance. I changed my tune. All of a sudden I was on Sephora online and OCC’s website trying to pick a color. And then I came across this set. And bam, decision made, I had a coupon for Sephora and free shipping etc. so I think each Lip Tar worked out to be something like 8 bucks a tube. Totally worth it. Continue reading →

I love lip products. Clearly. So when a lip product comes out that promises a hint of color that says my lips just look like this normally, not overdone but balanced perfectly between subtle and obvious, I am hooked. Continue reading →
