    This beauty trend has been trying to gain traction for almost a year but I think I’m finally ready to hop on this train. It is the blurred, blotted, soft matte, stain effect lip. Could I have possibly used any more adjectives? The first of which I saw was from my fave – ColourPop with their Ultra Blotted Lip US$6 followed by the Blur Lux Lipstick US$7.

  • New Goodies | Drugstore and Sephora Haul

    Happy Saturday! This month has been a spendy one! I have a few packages en route still, so expect another haul post soon. If hauls aren’t your thing – don’t worry I also have a few reviews in the works. Batiste Dry Shampoo – This time I purchased my favourite dry shampoo in the Original scent.
