Review:NYX Can’t Stop Won’t Stop Full Coverage Foundation
I am perpetually late with reviews on products with massive hype. But I have a good reason! I’m lowkey broke most of the time lol. It would be nice to get on some PR lists, but it’s also nice to not have large quantities of makeup I’ll never use taking up space in my one bedroom apartment. Also, did you see the Beauty Blender PR egg, what Imma do with that?! But I digress, I finally got to try out the NYX Can’t Stop Won’t Stop Full Coverage Foundation and guess what?! Ulta actually had my shade available in the store. Now you know someone from Ulta had to be…

Review: The Ordinary Serum Foundation
I feel like it’s been quite some time since I wrote anything on here, let alone a review, but I’m back with the hotness. This particular foundation I’m about to review isn’t exactly new, however, it was so popular that it took me damn near a year to be able to find it in stock and order. It is The Ordinary Serum Foundation from Deciem. Deciem happens to be my latest holy grail for skin care and you may remember that I’ve talked about The Ordinary Coverage Foundation and a few of their skincare products on Facebook and Instagram recently. Let’s get into this foundation now, shall we? It’s watery, but that is to…

Review: EveryHue Beauty Glow And Go Trio
I haven’t exactly been searching for new makeup brands to try, but Instagram gets me every time. Especially since this particular product is also the brainchild of a woman on one of the reality shows in my weekly rotation. Everyhue Beauty is a collaboration of 4 women, one being Giselle Bryant from Bravo’s The Real Housewives of the Potomac. Granted I don’t really like her personality much, but that’s an entirely different discussion, I do appreciate her recognizing a hole in the beauty market and collaborating with other women to try and fill it. I’m not biracial, lighter skinned, or even in the olive undertone family but I have heard women in…

Review: Beauty Bakerie Cake Mix Demi- Matte Foundation
I took the plunge and bought a non-drugstore priced foundation online y’all! After a long process of looking at swatches and reviews, adjusting my phone and laptops brightness, then looking at more swatches and reviews I took a calculated risk and bought the Beauty Bakerie Cake Mix Demi- Matte Foundation in shade #11. I’ve been following Beauty Bakerie for a few years now and have been watching the hype around them grow. Up until now, I had only purchased one of their Matte Lip Whips. Like, it was so long ago that they were still using the rectangular packaging. While I loved the color, the formula was just too drying…

Review: Makeup Revolution Conceal & Define Full Coverage Concealer
This has been called a dupe for Tarte’s Shape Tape Concealer, but I can’t speak to those assertions because I’ve never used it tsk tsk. But ya’ll should know me and my budget by now. Drugstore makeup and I are besties at this point. So let’s get into what I think of the Makeup Revolution Conceal & Define Concealer. What it claims: “The concealer for everyone. 25 shades ranging from fair to deep, in cool, neutral and warm undertones. Lightweight yet full coverage concealer to cover blemishes, even skin tone and counteract dark circles, with a matte finish that won’t settle or accentuate fine lines and pores. Long wearing intense pigment…
