Ah yes, the life of a student, currently it’s exam time where I live, and I definitely needed a boost of radiance from staying up late at night to study and cram for exams. When I received a chance to try out Clinique’s Turnaround Overnight Radiance Moisturizer, I was quite interested because 1) I’ve never actually used overnight creams before and 2) I definitely needed a boost of radiance after a long night.

I always like trying out new eyeliners. Mainly pencil liners because I like how they look on my eyes and they’re probably the easiest to use for me. This time, I tried out NYX’s Eye/Eyebrow Pencil in 901 Black. More »

I grew up listening to a lot of punk music from bands such as Hedley and Simple Plan so when I received the opportunity to try out Popbeauty’s Pretty Punk Eyeshadow Palette, I was curious to see if it could live up to my love for punk music. More »

I’m always looking for ways to eliminate fine lines and large pores with makeup and NYX’s Studio Perfect Photo-Loving Primer caught my eyes!

If you were the weird kid in elementary school who enjoyed putting glue on your hands only to peel your skin off a few minutes later, you’re in luck. Using Missha’s Super Aqua Oxygen Micro Essence Peeling made me feel like that weird kid again, but in a delightful way devoid of that weird glue smell. This product straight from Korea is described by Missha as an, “essence peeling gel made with micro peeling technology that produces micro oxygen particles that penetrate deeply into the skin to eliminate dead skin cells without scrubbing and provide nutrition to the deepest layer of the skin.” Whew. If you thought that was a long description, get a load of the characteristics of the product (as described by Missha): More »

Given the positive response Urban Decay’s received from the Naked Palette, they decided to go Naked again. Not literally of course, but in the form of Naked 2. And so for the first time, I’ve decided to take the plunge and go Naked…Naked 2 that is. How many times more will I be saying ‘naked’ in this review? Too many times. So go on, let’s get Naked(2) with me: More »

Ah yes, winter. I do love winter as it makes it really easy for me to not have super oily skin, but unfortunately, that means my skin definitely needs a lot of moisture. Since foundations are quite heavy and I’m not the biggest fan of using heavier products in the winter, I decided I needed something a lot lighter. Here’s where Stila’s Illuminating Tinter Moisturizer comes in. Not only is it going to provide your skin with lots of moisture, it’ll also help you even your skintone out a little bit while giving you a dewy look. I have the shade ‘Shade 02‘ if you were wondering. More »

There might be that one day where you might never have to buy another eyeshadow product again. Why? Because you have 100 colors all in one big, fat, giant palette! The e.l.f. Studio Endless Eyes Pro Eyeshadow Palette – Limited Edition is not as plentiful as the 144 shade one but it still can bring a huge smile to eyeshadow lover’s face. I spazzed when I received mine. So many colors, no? Plus, it’s limited edition. Isn’t it beautiful? More »

I love finding smaller palettes because they are much easier to travel with and I wanted to find a good one with enough colors to provide variety without weighing down my makeup bag. I found this Indie Pop palette, and the colors were so pretty that I knew i had to have it. More »

“Decay,” such a lovely word. Stick an “urban” in front of it and it sounds even better (no, not really)! In the case of Urban Decay Cosmetics, one is not really “Skimp”ing her money on this product. Hmm, quite the opposite of the name of the shade I tried out, Skimp, no? More »

Since I started dyeing my hair, I’ve regularly used one type of shampoo and it’s matching conditioner specifically for color treated hair. The H20+ Spa - Sea Marine Revitalizing Shampoo seemed rather appealing though, and I wondered how it would work with my hair. More »

Out of my makeup routine, I think that my eyelashes are the most important part because flirty lashes are really feminine and pulls the rest of my makeup look together. With that said I’m always looking for a better mascara. The NYX Doll Eye Volume Mascara sounded like it might do what I need from a mascara– add volume, and to make my eyes look dolly. More »
