The hype is REAL!

Tik Tok made me buy it, and I have to say, I am very surprised at the way this clear gel holds and feathers the brow. Although the texture reminds me of a jelly highlighter, I have to commend Anastasia for how well it stays on. I also really appreciate how user-friendly it is. I have laid quite a thick layer of this product, and it is very forgiving and does not clump up. Lastly, in a pinch, this is fantastic to tame flyaways and smoothen out your baby hairs!

Sweet relief!

As we descend into colder days, the parts of your body that seem to get aggravated by the chilly weather are numerous. However, in my case, my scalp always seems to get tight, itchy, and unfortunately flaky around the colder days.

To my sweet relief, SACHAJUAN came out with the scalp conditioner that pairs fantastically with any other shampoo you have. Their formula contains piroctone olamine, climbazole, rosemary oil, menthol, salicylic acid, ginger extract, and oat oil which all help to actively combat and help soothe any irritation on the scalp.

Personally, I love to shampoo (twice, as double cleansing the scalp and hair is truly the way to go) and then apply this conditioner from scalp to ends. They recommend leaving the product in for 5 minutes, however, I prefer to let it rest on my hair for 10-15 to get the best results.

If you're struggling, definitely pick this up and use in tandem with the accompanying shampoo for best results!

Perfect cat eye everytime!

My love affair with eyeliner has been going strong for 10+ years and although I love a cat eye, I can't seem to get them to match. Although you can grab any cotton bud and clean up, these make it even easier to achieve a perfect cat-eye.

I also really like using these to clean up my brows, especially if I have overdone them with powder. Lastly, if you're like me and love a mani-pedi at home, but seem to pain outside of the lines these make it so easy to clean up around your nails without messing up your gorgeous work!

Romantic, captivating and scrumptious!

I love fragrances and this Tom Ford release is probably a must-have for any perfume collector. The perfume is noted as warm and spicy, however, in my opinion, I think the perfume settles on the sweeter end on my skin. I love to layer this with a deeper floral note such as Noir de Noir. Although on the pricier end, I do believe this is a great investment as you can pair this with a more woodsy scent or as mentioned with perfumes that have floral notes.

This definitely stands out on its own and I get compliments every time I use this. 10/10, Mr.Ford does it again!

Vo-Vo-Volume!

I love hair care products, and this fun new collaboration with celebrity hairstylist Jenny Cho is my new holy grail. I have pretty curly hair and love to indulge in a blowout every now and then. As we all do, I try to extend my blowout as much as possible and this gives you both hydration and body. The delicious fragrance also gives you a much-needed boost of freshness to the hair and ultimately helps your hair from looking flat and lifeless.

Pro-tip! If you've got straight hair and want to give yourself heatless waves, apply a bit of this product and focus it on the mid-length to ends of your hair. Simply braid up the hair and go to bed. Wake up to luscious and effortless waves!

Simply the best!

I have tried pretty much any and every serum that promises to hydrate and brighten the skin, and this is by far the most effective. If you're a huge fan of serums such as the Peach & Lily Glass Skin Refining Serum or the Vinosource-Hydra S.O.S Thirst-Quenching Serum then look no further and give the Daily Brightening Serum a chance.

Personally, I think that the beta arbutin in this serum is gentle enough for everyday use, and I love that it contains hyaluronic acid. I love a one-and-done serum, and this helps to fight hyperpigmentation and ensure hydration, what's not to love!

On top of already so much high praise, I love how affordable it is. This makes it easy for me to restock. One of the most important keys to a successful skin routine is repetition, as I use this daily and twice a day, you can see that I am going through the product constantly. I am on my 3rd bottle and the results don't lie, this serum gives you a glow with continuous use. My one final tip is to please, apply and reapply sunscreen to ensure that you can enjoy the full results of the serum!

Rub, scrub, done!

During this quarantine time, I've been experimenting more with color and fun looks since I have more time on my hands. As I've been learning the art of creating a perfect cut crease, I have noticed that more pigmented shadows or cream liners seem to be harder to remove when cleaning brushes. The Parian Spirit cleaning liquid is amazing (smells so yummy) at removing any creams, pigments with a small amount. The little jar is also perfect as it comes with a little grate to scrub those cream products right off from any brush. I do advise, to only use this product with your synthetic brushes, and NOT TO USE with any natural hair brushes, as the high alcohol content might inadvertently dry out said brushes! Remember a little goes a long way so definitely use a sparring amount.

Great product, even better deal!

JUNO & CO came out swinging with this amazing sponge, and love the texture of this bouncy tool. I personally love wetting the sponge because it makes it double in size, and makes foundation application easy and breezy.

To top it off the sponge is only $5 which makes it easy to stock up if you're a working makeup artist or someone on the hunt for a good deal :)

OBSSESED!

I am a huge fan of exfoliation, and more so on the skin since I tend to lean into the dry category. I am a huge fan of the Caudalie line and are a huge fan of their skincare (their Vinoperfect Radiance Serum is my all-time fave!) but was a little hesitant to pick this up, since I hadn't heard much about it.

This jar brings me so much joy and I can't stop raving about it to anyone who will let me. It's a pretty generous amount of product, and as always a little goes a long way! I would say it's fairly coarse so it really gets all of the dry skin you may have. It also has a delightful fragrance that always makes me feel like my bathroom feels like and smells like a fancy spa!

The MVP of my curl routine ✨

I am a hair product junkie and although my bleached curls can sometimes feel and look a little under the weather, I can always rely on this product to protect my curls while simultaneously, detangling any knots or tangles.

The scent of this is very reminiscent of a hug, and even though that might be an odd description, I can assure you that this smells divine! It is super gentle as the title with suggest but packs a punch of hydration from the oats in the formula!(it also contains vitamin B 😉)

I have tried everything from high end to drugstore, and I have to say this outperforms a lot of detanglers that I have used!
