New Beauty Room Design Ideas


Source: Unsplash
When it comes to your beauty regime whether you're a vlogger or not you must have a lovely space to perfect your makeup, try new ideas and make sure you're comfortable while you do so. If you also film from your beauty room, then it's even more crucial that you have a bright, tidy, pretty place as a backdrop. It's lovely when you're watching makeup videos, and you see the vlogger has put a lot of effort into their surroundings. Not all of us have the budget of Jeffree Star though, and a guarantor loans calculator may be needed at some point, but when you're sat in your finished masterpiece creating the latest looks for your fans, you'll know you've made the right decision.

Up For Review: 6 Colors Matte Lip Gloss Set by Luckyfine


Now, for this post, let us talk lips, a topic that you guys all know I have a passion for, a passion that could be otherwise described as an 'obsession' or a 'hoarding problem' but we won't even go there.

My 3 Valentine's Day Lipstick Picks - MAC, Sephora & Zoeva


Hey there my lovelies! Firstly, I'd just like to sincerely thank you for sticking around despite my rather lengthy leave of absence and tell you have grateful I am to have your support, especially when life isn't quite going my way. Maintaining this blog makes me incredibly happy so, although I knew stepping away for a while to figure things out within my personal life was what I needed, doing so was incredibly painful and, quite frankly, I can't bear to sit around any longer. And, in addition to that, what on earth are you guys going to do without this year's speedy Valentine's Day lipstick picks? Duty calls, duty calls...

Hey guys, today I'm back, and fairly punctually, with a brand, spanking new review of a special something that popped into my post box not so long ago, accompanied by a variety of confectionary and sweet treats in keeping with the theme (which were promptly devoured by myself and my entourage within the hours that followed).

Yes, my Barbie dolls (and Ken dolls, obviously), welcome BACK to yet another one! I'm honestly so happy to be uploading in a more consistent manner again and today's post and feature products have my body shook to the core, as we're going to dip into to some serious lipstick porn.

Strobing Through Summer with Technic Cosmetics


As the weather is begins to get hotter (well, in most countries...) and the sun finally comes out to play, I, myself, think that a change of makeup routine is 100% appropriate - I simply cannot continue sticking to the same ritual that I follow during Winter and early Spring.

Hi there babes, I know it's been a while so I'd firstly like to apologise for my leave of absence (exam period has been absolutely CRAZY) - I honestly can't forgive myself for depriving you guys of your weekly makeup and skincare fix for so long!

B:UNDENIABLE - An Exclusive First Look...


Being a woman (or should I say 'girl') of colour, I do sometimes struggle with certain cosmetics brands not providing enough variety in terms of shade range to match and suit darker skintones. And, quite frankly, it pisses me off bothers me a great deal, as EVERYONE, regardless of how light or dark an individual happens to be, has the right to feel beautiful. That, ladies and gentlemen, is why the brand new range B:UNDENIABLE by Brysocréma stole my heart the minute I read the description.
