By On July 16, 2010 · Leave a Comment

There are so many good things about Hourglass Prodigy Hydrating Lip Gloss that I don’t even know where to begin.

Drugstore Scores! Rimmel London Lasting Finish Blush

By On July 9, 2010 · 1 Comment

As a fair-skinned girl with rosy cheeks, I tend to shy away from overpowering red/pink toned blush, and I’m always nervous about straying away from my tried and trues.
