WHY YOU'LL NEVER LOOK YOUNGER I know this sounds harsh but at almost 54 years old my mature skin can really looked aged if I follow the advice from younger beauty gurus. They mean well, but the fact is that they have different texture skin than I have and I think most mature women. Here's why you'll never look younger following a younger guru. SKIN Skin, texture, lines, wrinkles, it's a fact that most of us mature women over a certain age have at least one of these issues. Even if you get botox and fillers our skin is much different than it was when we were younger. I started noticing a change when I turned 40. Everything I used on my skin stopped working. I was so frustrated! One of the first things that really changed was my under eye area. Concealers that worked started to ... View Post

SUPER SPONGE BETTER THAN A BEAUTY BLENDER?
SUPER SPONGE BETTER THAN A BEAUTY BLENDER? I've been a loyal fan of the beauty blender ever since it came into my life. But recently I've been introduced to the super sponge. It got me wondering is the super sponge better than a beauty blender? This sponge was sent to me for review but as always I'm here to give you my honest opinion. WHAT IS THE SUPER SPONGE?

Let's talk about when I don't think you need a face primer and what you can do to prep your skin for makeup.(This post contains affiliate links, see disclosure policy) WHY YOU DON'T NEED A FACE PRIMER There are different face primers on the market. They all promise to do many things. One primer suggests that using it will help to minimize the look of large pores. These are applied only in the areas that pores are large and blended in.
