1     BECCAShimmering Skin Perfector Pressed Highlighter Impeccable timing! I had just stopped by a Sephora and picked up a different shade of this same highlighter! Love it! (Now, I have one for my travel bag!) Great pigment and lots of shine. Goes on silky.. great formula. I'm sorry it took m…

Hulu: The Act

I remember hearing about this case when it was actually going on in the news, but it just feels like it was way longer ago that it actually was. Granted, I was in the middle of college and, let's be real...  everything outside of school is a blur.

Apparently they are throwing around the idea of making a Season 2, but Gypsy Rose is still in jail, so I'm not sure what it would include. Even the way the trials went is interesting. There's really no way to have an opinion on the verdicts because the details are absolutely so convoluted -- I'm just glad I wasn't on that jury.

1     TARTEFoundcealer with SPF20 I've heard a lot about the Shape Tape and this new Foundcealer, so I was excited to give it a try, plus the shade is close enough that I figured I wouldn't worry about it being an exact match. It may be user error, but I've always struggled with product…

Hulu: PEN15

There are no words to adequately describe how much I actually related to this show. The first episode got me hooked, but each episode got worse and worse (in the best way possible) until I could barely contain myself by the AOL Instant Messenger episode [EP07, btw).

I don't want to ruin ANY of this show, because it's truly a masterpiece.. especially if you were anywhere in the vicinity of elementary, middle, junior high, or high school around the year 2000.

So, just do yourself a favor and get a hold of a Hulu account, and get started. You'll thank me later.

1     BITEAmuse Bouche Lipstick I will rarely ever dock a lipstick review for color, I still struggle with getting colors right, even when I get to sample live & in-person. So, my lipstick reviews are generally on formula, consistency, etc. This lipstick was fine, I didn't get an overwhelmi…

Belif Skincare

All roads point back to IPSY and finding a product I fell in love with.

I believe I had finally decided to order one of my very first expensive products from Sephora and being a new Sample-Addict (also thanks to Ipsy) I was all over the "select-a-sample" options that accompany your Shopping Cart on Sephora's website. Somewhere along the line, I ended up with a Belif product. 

Going Down

I have a Fancy-Schmancy Wifi/Smart Scale and it tracks a crap ton of things in addition to weight. Generally, people have a tendency to be fixated on one set of numbers: WEIGHT (lbs), so I'm choosing to instead go by BMI.

Essentially the same, but not.

It's a way for me to share my ups and …
