Lip products are fun. Sticks, pencils, balms, stains–they all come in a variety of shades, finishes, brands, and what-have-you. Although, to be honest, I used to hate lipsticks when I was a child and my mom insisted I wear a bright red shade when I was a flower girl for a wedding. My lips felt … More #FridayFavorites: Lip Products, Part 1
Adovia and I have a good relationship, I’d like to think. This isn’t the first time I’ve reviewed their products; the first being their Dead Sea Mud Mask, which worked wonders on my face. It has become a part of my bi-weekly nightly facial care routine. This time around, they sent me a sample of … More Adovia Dead Sea Salt Scrub Review
I gotta hand it to The Vampire Diaries staff. In less than a year, they have managed to influence almost every aspect of my life. Elena’s gorgeous long lashes via individual falsies? Got those. Songs from every episode? Downloaded the second the episode ended. (Haaay Chris Mollere!) Crush on Ian Somerhalder? I dated a guy … More I Got Booties
Anyone who is into makeup will feel me on this. You can have a vanity and acrylic drawers filled with beauty products, but you will most likely have just a handful that are irreplaceable, uncontested, and simply Holy Grail. I’ve only started dabbling with makeup early last year, but I think I’ve amassed quite a … More My 9 Holy Grail Makeup Products
Mud masks! I like them. Sure, they look scary like in those Hollywood movies of moms sporting green or gray face, cucumbers on their eyes, and hair up in towels. They’re messy, but I feel like I just got out of the spa afterwards. I don’t wear masks too often, mainly because I’m lazy. That’s … More Adovia Purifying Dead Sea Mud Mask Review
Not going to lie, sometimes I feel like I’m rapidly aging. I can see faint lines around my eyes and lips, and it’s causing a little panic. I went through a night cream, eye cream, anti-aging products research phase earlier this year but couldn’t find anything worth getting. They were all either too expensive, filled … More OZ Naturals Hyaluronic Acid Serum Review
I’ve been noticing tufts of hair on my tub after my showers, and my friends have been commenting about the constant presence of strands of my hair on every piece of furniture I happen to be within five feet of. One my ex-boyfriends texted me once that after changing the bedsheets while I was at work, he … More Pura D’or Organic Argan Oil Review

I got a chance to sample two of Kim Kimble‘s hair products this weekend in exchange for an honest review. I got to pick which set I would get, so I chose the Brazilian Nut and Acai Berry conditioning mask and a shower cap. The conditioning masque is a thick off-white cream that smells oh-so-good. … More Kimble Beauty Hair + Discount!
My friend Zoë invited me to an event through Facebook last week, and me being the adventure-less lass that I am, decided that I would drag Ricky to the thing. It would be good for us to experience Sacramento and get out of the house/apartment sometimes. Break the monotony, if you will. This event–the Art … More Crocker Art Museum + Art Mix/Spoke-tacular
