HOW TO GET BIG FULL LIPS AT HOME!
HOW TO GET BIG FULL LIPS AT HOME! I not only have small lips but mine are uneven due to a birth defect. If you were wondering how to get big full lips at home I'm going to share some easy tips. I just want to say that I have nothing against fillers but I'm just not a fan of needles on or near my face. These tips will create big full lips in minutes!(This post contains affiliate links.

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? It's a sponge that helps to apply your makeup and create an airbrushed look. This company claims that you will use less product, it won't stain (unlike the beauty blender), prevents dirt and foundation from absorbing into it, and it's germ resistant. I decided to put both of these to the test and compare my face side by side to see if one really was better than the other. I applied foundation, concealer, liquid blush, bronzer ... View Post

DO YOU REALLY NEED A FACE PRIMER?
DO YOU REALLY NEED A FACE PRIMER? The question is do you really need a face primer? I have mature dry oily skin. And over the years I've tried many face primers and none of them worked at keeping my foundation on. Remember the days before face primer was a thing? 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. This goes on before your foundation. Which these days I wear very little of. I talked ... View Post
TROPHY SKIN MD REVIEW UPDATE
TROPHY SKIN MD REVIEW UPDATE A few years ago Trophy Skin MD sent me an at home microdermabrasion machine to test out and review. I was a little hesitant at first because I was worried about using anything abrasive on my skin. But once I started using it I was hooked! So today I'm going to share a Trophy Skin MD review and update along with talking about a few new to me attachments that they sent me. This is not a sponsored.

As you sweep the silver diamond head attachment it has a suction that picks up all the skin that's being exfoliated. Make sure to clean this attachment every time you use ... View Post
