Jeffree Star Cosmetics Blood Lust // Eyeshadow

Jeffree Star Cosmetics Blood Lust // Eyeshadow Blood Lust Palette   Another addition to my JSC palette collection. The beautiful Blood Lust palette. You already know my love for purple shadows so I was super hyped for this palette. The time it took to get to me was upsetting and I don't know if it's just me, but the last three launches from JSC has been a HUGE delay that I never expect from them. This time around I also had an unpleasant time with costumer service... I usually never mention it, but that shit just turns me off a brand so fast. Regardless, I want to still share my truthful thoughts and review about this palette with you.  The mattes (10 mattes) are my favorite in this palette. They're the beloved JSC formula of pressed pigments and they're amazing! The undertones, pigment payoff, wear time, etc. is EVERYTHING with this palette (and I guess pretty much any of the JSC palettes. Ha!). The metallics (8 metallics) are stunning as well. B

TokyoMilk // Dead Sexy Fragrance

TokyoMilk  // Dead Sexy Fragrance I got this perfume in an Ipsy Glam Bag Plus months ago and remember liking the scent, but then I forgot about it until I was recently cleaning. I was wiping down my skincare shelf, where I keep fragrances too, and it caught my eye. So I looked up more about this brand and also put this fragrance to the test for days to see what I thought of it.  Dead Sexy by TokyoMilk Fragrance Notes: Romantic & Ethereal:  Deep Vanilla, Exotic Wood, White Orchid, Ebony   This perfume sticks out to me a lot because I love vanilla scents. I usually prefer vanilla as a sweet daytime wear fragrance, but this vanilla scent is combined with other scents that make it super sultry. It makes it a very nice nighttime scent and I have also enjoyed this one during the day. I put it to the test (since I'm new to this brand and fragrance line) to see if it would hold up all day. It smells strong once sprayed, but after drying down

My Top Nude Lipsticks // Traditional Lipsticks

My Top Nude Lipsticks I blogged about lipsticks sometime last year and meant to continue that, but then never got around to it. I wanted to blog about the "nudes" in my collection then realized how crazy I got with buying nudes last year and decided it would be best to do traditional nude lipsticks and then nude liquid lipsticks another day. Haha!  I have creams and mattes to show you, but like mentioned these are all traditional lipsticks for today.  I am rather fair, if you didn't already know that, so most of my nudes are on the fair side, but if this is a loved blog or requested I'll continue with berry shades, glosses, and maybe an update on my reds. These are also shades in my collection and after picking out the bunch I realized a lot are no longer available sadly, but I linked the ones I could! XO KKW Beauty Nude 2 & Nude 3 I have a whole lip swatch video on the Nude set from KKW Beauty, but I wanted to talk about the two tha

Good Molecules Cleansing Bar & Caffeine Energizing Hydrogel Eye Patches // Skincare

Good Molecules Cleansing Bar & Caffeine Energizing Hydrogel Eye Patches // Skincare I have plenty of skincare blogs coming your way, but I wanted to post again about Good Molecules and their products I've been loving.  I do have a video on these products, mainly so on the eye patches, but now that I have been using both of them for awhile I wanted to share my thoughts.  Caffeine Energizing Hydrogel Eye Patches I have always enjoyed any eye product. From eye masks like these to eye creams. They both make a huge difference in my skincare. I go through spells of little sleep and gradually see my under eye area get darker and darker. I'm also paranoid of getting eye wrinkles so I try to keep my eye area super hydrated and even throw in anti-aging in the mix once in awhile. What I can say is that I was not expecting what happened with these eye patches. Yes I'm used to hydration boosts with eye masks, but the difference you see immediately with th

Maxx & Ally With a Side of Beauty | New Beauty Podcast

Maxx & Ally With a Side of Beauty | New Beauty Podcast I'm a little late at this blog (what else is new?) but I wanted to share another project that has recently been taking up a lot of my time... In a good way! I promise to be more present here soon. I have been putting a lot of time in our new podcast, Maxx & Ally With a Side of Beauty with my beautiful friend Maxx who is the other cohost!  It has already been fun coming up with ideas every week, challenging keeping up with not just one but two episodes every week now, but more than anything it has been another creative outlet that makes me happy. I enjoy my recording days with Maxx so much! We are so much alike that we work well together even while juggling our own schedules, figuring out this podcast world of cohosting, and making sure we have the content to keep you entertained!  For my blog followers I will leave episode links below and try to keep you updated with new episodes when I can.
