Julep Beauty has been on my radar for many years, but I admittedly haven’t used a ton of their products. That’s why I’m pumped to be one of the few Julep eyeshadow stick reviews out there. I’m hoping that this review will spread the good word about this awesome brand! After testing out this cream…
There’s nothing that I wish I could emulate more than a cool Cali girl. While I’ll always be a Northeasterner at heart (with a bit of Texas Southerner sprinkled in), I feel like the Caliray primer allows me to embody that cool-girl, laid-back vibe. Before I dive into my Caliray primer review, we should go…
Good foundation doesn’t have to be expensive.
Before I get into my Laura Geller makeup review, here’s a fun flashback. I actually met Laura herself many years ago when I worked as an Assistant Beauty Editor at Family Circle magazine. We were filming a Facebook Live (remember those!?) with her while she demonstrated applying her eponymous makeup line on my face. Fast…
I’m super pumped to write this Nudestix review because I love the founder. I met Taylor Frankel, co-founder of Nudestix, around 2016. We were having a deskside meeting at my old job as an Assistant Beauty Editor at Family Circle magazine. She was around 17 or 18 at the time, and I just remember Taylor…
I’m excited to write this Iris and Romeo review because it’s an up-and-coming brand that deserves more attention. This brand first caught my eye when they sent me an email pitch to my work inbox about their “all-in-one” foundation, moisturizer, and sunscreen skin tint. I am a big fan of products that do double duty….
As a beauty and lifestyle writer, I’ve tested dozens of lipsticks—some luxury tubes with expensive pricetags as well as a handful of drugstore picks. The latter, which was previously thought of as subpar, has come a long way. In fact, I’ve found that drugstore lipstick can be just as good as, if not better, than…
When I first received the MERIT concealer in a mailer about a year ago, I honestly didn’t give it too much attention. I didn’t understand how this little stick was supposed to work as a concealer and foundation. How would this stick cover my entire face? Fast forward to a year later, and I went…
When I was in high school, I remember spending hours slinking through the beauty aisles at my local drugstore or Target. I loved seeing the latest product each brand came out with. I frequently tried to swatch products on my hands when I knew I shouldn’t (I mean, who doesn’t do this?). There’s nothing more…
I rarely like to switch up my foundation—I’m a diehard Alima Pure Satin Matte Foundation stan. However, when I saw that one of the best-selling foundations on Amazon was a brand I’d never heard of, I knew I had to purchase and write an honest Magic Minerals Airbrush Foundation review for my blog. Unfortunately, most…
