I wish I weren’t so familiar with the topic that I jumped at the chance to talk about the best foundation for rosacea. But I have years of research behind me, prompted by personal experience and loads of desperation. I was a beauty and fashion writer (and before that, a salesperson, working directly with customers)…
Maybelline mascaras are some of the best affordable options on the market, but they have so many options, it can be overwhelming to choose. In this best Maybelline mascara guide, I’m considering length, thickness, separation, color, curl, and lift. I’ll also look at wear time, flaking, formula options, and ease of removal. How I Chose…
In this Tarte primer line guide, I’ll walk you through Tarte’s massive primer offering and help you decide which one (or ones) is right for you. This is one of the most expansive primer lines from a company I’ve ever seen, so there’s probably something for everyone here. If you’re ready to smooth the canvas…
I never used to contour my face outside of (very) special occasions, but I’ve been experimenting more and more lately. NYX Contour Stick (or Wonder Stick) looked perfect. I never contour with a dark shade without using a light, usually pearlescent one, too. This product has both. Plus, I’ve been a fan of NYX Cosmetics…
The best Better Than Sex mascara dupes are found across several brands and price points. Have you avoided Better Than Sex Mascara because you can’t stomach the price ($27.00 for mascara is a lot!)? Or did you try it and find something about the brush or formula that made it not quite perfect for you?…
I have suffered from eczema and/or rosacea my whole life, so I know the CeraVe vs Eucerin debate well. These, along with Cetaphil, are the brands that always seem to pop up in any list of recommendations for sensitive, reactive skin, even when you’re face-to-face with a doctor (at least in my experience). Suppose you’re…
I don’t know when I stopped using the original, but at some point, I started gravitating toward some of the best MAC Strobe Cream alternatives instead of going for the real thing. I’ve strayed away from MAC over the past few years, despite a complete obsession with everything they made that held me in its…
I couldn’t wait to write a Natasha Denona My Dream eyeshadow palette review when I saw the news of the upcoming launch. I ordered it during the Sephora sale right after the release, eager to have something new from one of my top two eyeshadow palette brands. I’ve been experimenting with makeup and writing about…
In my Tower 28 MakeWaves Lengthening + Curling Clean Mascara review, I’ll show you why this is one of the few makeup products I keep in rotation. I love trying new mascaras, so it’s rare for me to finish a tube and have the impulse to rush back out to buy another one just like…
I’m a sucker for metallic eyeshadows (with a side of creamy mattes) and ABH palettes in general, so I jumped at the chance to write an Anastasia Beverly Hills Rose Metals review. What pushed me over the edge (as if I needed more convincing to buy it) was when I saw it compared to the…
