Beauty, Books, and Life on a School Bus
So sad about my lipsticks. I’ve since moved where I store them to limit the temperature changes they are exposed to so hopefully I don’t ruin any more. And thankfully, my very nice MAC lipsticks weren’t damaged. I would have been so upset. Those have been very thoughtfully purchased and, with the exception of Ruby …
Wow. This brow product was…terrible. It has a HUGE brow pencil, it’s almost more like a brow crayon, which was very problematic for any delicate part of my brows like the tail. But really, it is so fat that it couldn’t get beneath my brow hairs to deposit the color on my skin it just, …
Ahhhh, a good ole empties video. I love these and this is the first time I’ve ever done one. I find them oddly helpful and informative. I’m not particularly interested in hauls but I am interested in what was good enough to use up and especially interested in what people liked enough to repurchase and …
This is the color routine that I do every couple of weeks. I have found that the more I dye my hair the better the color sticks and the longer that I can go without touching it up. Like, I’m currently about 5 weeks since my last color touch up and it’s just reached the …
Seriously, this hair is a lot of maintenance. In the beginning it really did surpass the level I was expecting. I felt a little bit like Tobias Fünke when he goes blue. Everything was blue. I have since figured out why the bleeding was so prominent and have corrected the issue so I’m not turning …
I’ve wanted to do blue hair for ages. Like for more than a decade. Actually, that’s not totally true. I really wanted to go pink. At first, I was convinced I could never pull pink off because I’m not a natural blonde. Then, because the desire never went away, I dyed some sections underneath (by …
I loved this look. Everything seemed to work so well. The shadow and liner were fabulous. I was just very pleased. And the powder has continued to be amazing. It is probably my favorite pressed powder I’ve ever tried. It’s giving loose translucent powders a run for their money. I do still want to try …
The dryness in Texas really messes with my skin and hair. I was born and raised in a very humid climate so I am not acclimated to this level of dryness which, to be honest, is not that dry in the grand scheme of things. While I’m in north Texas all of my hydrating activities …
Still trying to get lighting figured out. It became increasingly obvious that my DIY ring-light was not cutting it. It couldn’t put out enough light and was oddly yellow despite using bright white LEDs. Those Uggs. Totally worth it. I have chronically cold feet and once their cold it’s so hard to warm them up …
I have a Sims problem. I love it. There’s just something about playing a little person doing people things that I find very enjoyable. Although, the Sims 4 does not even to close to the same ability to customize stuff as the previous versions of the game which is sad and disappointing. Still fun though …
