Spending Ban Project | Goals & Methods |

It's been a while since I decided to go through this, a spending ban.  For the past year I bought an insane amount of makeup, as I started to work and have more brands at my hands. All those things I wanted for years most of them are in my collection, the lipsticks grew from about 20 to 60+, and it's not that...

The Brush Cleaning Routine

Yes, we are talking about cleaning brushes here... hard chore right?! Many people delay it (looking at my own belly here) so they don't need to put their hands to water for hours every week... other's are just too clean for even going a day without washing their brushes after use!  I, as you can see, have to find good reasons to put...

Tartelette In Bloom | First Impression |

In a way I want to start by mentioning nothing will ever beat the original Tartelette palette that I love more than any other eyeshadow group I own, but... something comes up close to it!

Happily Ever After

It all started by the need of experimenting more with palettes that are not so new to my collection... I have this thing, when I get new eyeshadows I work with them once or twice and sometimes after that I go months without touching them. It is one of those things you can't really control when you own so many eyeshadows and keep...

MAC | Evening Rendezvous |

So, this happened, quite long ago to be fair! I decided to give MAC lipsticks another chance... why would I? Laura thought it was a good idea to recommend it to me!  As if packaging was not enough to make me want this particular lipstick in my collection what really sold me was the shade, the formula (that I was so impressed with)...
