    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: Black Radiance Color Perfect Foundation

    This was my first time using any Black Radiance products and although I wasn’t impressed, I still want to try others. I’ve been a foundation kick lately and have been wanting to try out more, even though I already have my holy grails. I think this is how makeup hoarding begins lol. I was perusing YouTube looking for foundations recommended by other dark skinned beauty vloggers. I saw many positive reviews of Black Radiance’s Color Perfect Foundation so decided to give it a try. Since I live in an area that corporate headquarters of most stores don’t deem cost effective to stock dark shades of any brand, I had to…

    Review: NYX Total Control Drop Foundation

    I’ve been talking smack about all the videos on Instagram where beauty gurus are placing droppers of oil or foundation straight on their faces lately.  Because, WHY? But here I am in the elite group of people looking ridiculous in order to make a post. Y’all just can’t see how ridiculous. I finally caved and bought the NYX Total Control Drop Foundation because it’s summer and I wanted to find something light to wear when I do put on makeup. What could be lighter than something that looks like dirty water? Right? First impressions: I hate the packaging. The dropper just does what it wants without me squeezing it. So…

    Yeah I know I’m Late: Maybelline Fit Me Matte+Poreless Foundation

    Okay y’all. I know I’m hella late on this, but hear me out. I have a good reason. I’ve heard nothing but great things about the Maybelline Fit Me Matte+Poreless Foundation and I’ve been dying to try it. However! For the longest, the shade selection was super limited. I mean it only went from Winona Ryder to Halle Berry. I wanted to try it so badly that I even bought the darkest shade I could find in stores and online, which was Coconut 355. Chiiilllleeee, I knew better, but the Instagram and YouTube beauty gurus had me gassed. This was about 2 years ago. I didn’t even bother to take pictures because…

    A Review of the Anastasia Beverly Hills Foundation

    I’m late. Not that late, but late nonetheless. I recently purchased the Anastasia Beverly Hills foundation from Sephora.com (thanks to the Flash Shipping) and have been testing it out so I can give you all an honest and fair review. First things first, before I even bought the foundation I was in awe of the shade range. From very light to incredibly deep and rich. So I was hella excited. Then I saw the price and knew I had to jump on it. A high-end foundation stick that retails for $25? This must be a joke. But it is indeed real. Now on to what really matters. I was lucky…
