Hourglass is starting off the new year with some amazing lip launches! I am a huge Hourglass fan and have been using the brand for more than 10 years. This brow pencil was my first purchase from them more than a decade ago and is still my holy grail brow product. Hourglass has always been known for their lip products but have released some formulas that have become instant best sellers. The Hourglass Phantom Volumizing Glossy Balms are absolutely amazing and the Unlocked Satin Lipsticks are one of the best satin lipsticks I've tried. Their two newest launches are the
Fenty Beauty always seems to be on the pulse of makeup and constantly creating products that consumers really want. The shade range is fantastic (over 40 inclusive shades for every skin tone included in their complexion range) and from what I have tried so far, their products are always so effective. The brand was founded by Rihanna and she is still the face of it. I'm always hesitant towards celebrity brands because so many fall flat or go out of business soon after launching. However, Fenty Beauty has stood the test of time and continues to stay relevant in the
Shirt | Jeans | Boots | Bag Friday Finds 1.12 1. If you are a season ahead planner and already thinking about your spring closet, this adorable raincoat would be so fun to wear especially in rainy weather! 2. Large bucket style totes are trending for spring and this one is a great price point, right on trend but still a classic piece. 3. I think the next big skincare trend will be milky essences that can be used multiple ways. Ilia just launched one and it looks really nice! 4. I have not tried much from this beauty brand
I've had a ton of traffic going to this Dior mascara comparison post so I thought I would update it with the current formulas and a bit about each one. Hopefully this mascara review will help you decide which one is best for what you are looking for! Dior Mascara Comparisons: Dior Addict It-Lash, Diorshow, and Diorshow Iconic Overcurl Since I published this post years ago, Dior has discontinued the It-Lash formula and that was a good decision. It just wasn't that great of a formula and the brush was not great. Diorshow Buildable Volume Mascara was one of my
I'm a die hard skincare lover but surprisingly had never tried anything from the cult classic brand, Medik8. It has been recommended to me by my readers for yearsssss and I've seen so many great reviews on their products. I have been testing four of their top sellers for the past 4-5 months and thought I would do a comprehensive review on my experience with all of them. I do plan on testing more products from Medik8 so any that I do, I will add them to this post so all the reviews for the brand are in one place.
As someone who has lived nearly half of her life in places that get very cold, I have built up a really good coat wardrobe. Especially since it's the only thing from my outfit that people will see when I go out. Having coats for a variety of different occasions is essential. But it can be hard to know exactly how to start building a coat wardrobe. It's much like building an everyday clothing wardrobe since you need to make sure you focus on getting the basics first. Obviously this will look different for everyone. But there are a few
I will forever be a knee high boot fan. Even more than ankle boots, I tend to gravitate towards knee high boots and how they can look so chic with a ton of different looks. And they are more versatile than ankle boots because they can be worn under jeans/trousers and look like an ankle boot and then also still be styled with short dresses and skirts too. I don't always love the look of ankle boots with a shorter dress/skirt as I find it's not as flattering and can make my legs look a bit shorter. It's great to buy
Sweater | Jeans | Boots | Bag | Necklace (discount code: ALITTLEBITETC) Friday Finds 1.5 1. These wide leg faux leather trousers look so chic! So on trend for the moment but also a style you can wear for years to come. 2. These new Chanel winter blushes look gorgeous!!! I believe they are the same size as the Les Beiges powders. 3. I just ordered this long trench for the spring and am so excited to style it. 4. Nest fragrances always has the most gorgeous packaging and their new spring candle is beautiful. 5. I'm loving that the
NARS blushes have been a staple in my makeup collection for years. Orgasm was one of the first blushes I ever purchased and still wear it to this day. While their multiple sticks and powder blushes are insanely popular, the NARS liquid blushes are often overlooked but shouldn't be! The liquid blushes are exclusive to the NARS website and there are four shades in the collection. Years ago I wasn't a liquid or cream blush/cheek product user but these liquid blushes really impressed me when I first tried them. I wasn't sure what to expect from them, but since it
I wear bronzer nearly every day and have been doing so for years. Using a bronzer for fair skin helps warm up my complexion and add some dimension to my cheeks. You can use bronzer to give the skin some glow, contour the face or give your makeup some depth and warmth. If you are worried about bronzer placement, using a stick bronzer is a great option because it allows for a more precise application. I had heard great things about the Rare Beauty Warm Wishes Effortless Bronzer Stick so I wanted to give it a try and test the
