Not only will your future spouse thank you for not scratching them with flaky lips, but your makeup will … Continue reading Bridal Beauty: Lip TLC with Sara Happ

One particular one was from the team at Deck of Scarlet who sent another fab care package. This time, it was a selection of their newly launched matte … Continue reading Swatches & First Impressions: Deck of Scarlet Shadow Singles
Earlier this week I posted a Test Drives post which featured a variety of makeup brands and a rose gold inspired beauty look. My goal with that earlier post was to highlight Deck of Scarlet’s Edition No 7 March/April palette. But with the colors I was using, it ended up cancelling out the neutral tones … Continue reading Classic Bridal Beauty with Deck of Scarlet
So I’m rolling out a new post theme, “Test Drives”, which will focus on a #motd (makeup of the day) beauty look centered around new items (either gifted by brands or that I’ve purchased).
