I’ve tried it all, it seems. I love makeup and “girly stuff”! I’ll be sharing my product reviews with you and would love your feedback on what I should try, too! Today I’m looking at bareMinerals Tinted Mineral Veil. About eight years ago, bareMinerals makeup was all the rage! Remember the endless commercials? All of us who used it learned how to cope with a messy makeup area after every use. No matter how hard you tried, that powder left some fairy dust everywhere! But … we loved it, and so did everyone else! It’s still in makeup stores, but I don’t know many people who still wear it. I am ever loyal to the Tinted Mineral Veil though. It’s a sheer finishing powder

I’ve tried it all, it seems. I love makeup and “girly stuff!” I’ll be sharing my product reviews for you and would love your feedback on what I should try, too! Today I’m looking at Maybelline Lash Sensational Luscious Waterproof Mascara. I tried this both in waterproof and non-waterproof. The big picture: I really love the waterproof, but do not like the non-waterproof. Both formulas lengthen, volumize, and separate, but the non-waterproof bled and transferred under my lower lash line. Not my fav. This is a deal breaker for me; I need to cry and sweat with dignity. I did like the way it made my lashes look, which is why I bought the waterproof version. That was a game changer. This, in waterproof, is for the win for me!

I’ve tried it all, it seems… I love makeup and girly stuff! So I’ll be sharing my product reviews with you and would love your feedback on what I should try, too! Today I’m looking at Dolce & Gabbana’s 3 L’Imperatrice perfume. I think everyone needs their own “Signature Scent”—you know, when people catch a waft of a scent and they instantly think of you? With that in mind, we better make it a good one! Our senses act as a major touchpoint in our lives. I can hear a particular song on the radio and it automatically transports me to a memory. The same thing happens with scents. I smell a particular fragrance and, without effort, I relive a memory, am carried off to a specific place, or identify a person.

I’ve tried it all, it seems. I love makeup and “girly stuff!” I’ll be sharing my product reviews with you and would love your feedback on what I should try, too! Today I’m looking at Physician’s Formula Powder Palette Mineral Glow Pearls. I’ve started a hunt for an excellent highlighter at a drugstore price. While I do use both “higher end” and “drugstore” make-up products, I always do an extra jig when I find great make-up at a bargain price. Especially when this is not a necessary product—it’s sort of an extra thing to play with. No one knows how much I paid for it once it’s on my face, right? They just know if it looks beautiful or not, and I know if it

I’ve tried it all, it seems. I love makeup and “girly stuff!” I’ll be sharing my product reviews with you and would love your feedback on what I should try, too! Today I’m looking at NYX Slim Lip Liner Pencil. The NYX Slim Lip Liner Pencil was recommended to me by another makeup lovah friend. She loved it. I tried it in the color 860 Peekaboo Neutral. First, I need to admit that I’m not a huge lip liner girl. I definitely wear one when wearing red, or if I’m doing evening makeup… But, most of the time I don’t wear lip liner. My long-wearing lipstick really covers the base for me. Sometimes I’ll wear a lip liner all over my lips

I’ve tried it all, it seems. I love makeup and “girly stuff”! I’ll be sharing my product reviews for you and would love your feedback on what I should try, too! Today I’m looking at Revlon Volume + Length Magnified Mascara. Over a span of about 2 months I recently tested about 15 different drugstore mascaras for a project I was working on. I was trying to find about 3 really great mascaras that would lengthen, give volume, be long-wearing, come off easily at the end of the day, and not cost an arm and a leg. I have so-so lashes. They are not long or extra thick, but I like them regardless. They just need a little smoke and mirrors to
