I received 6 items in my Birchbox in October as the shampoo came with a bonus conditioner sample. Overall, not that impressed with this box for several reasons and the mascara would be the only one I would use again. I wish you could tell Birchbox that you only want cosmetic samples as I have […]

Why You Need Annabelle EyeInk 2 Corrector
I received Annabelle EyeInk 2 Mistake Proof with some other Annabelle products and without looking closely, assumed the white end was a white eyeliner (and good white ones are hard to find). On closer inspection, it was a black precise ended EyeInk 2 eyeliner and a corrector pen! This had me giddy because I am […]

piCture pOlish Fall 2015 Swatches

While I love plums and purples for nail polish, I tend to look like someone punched me in the face if I use similar colours for eyeshadow. Plums and purples are also not super work appropriate so budget options are great as I take it off and reapply a lot.
