Like most high-end fashion houses, Prada has a beauty line that has been growing over the past few years. I’ve tried a lot of their products and many of them are really good, specifically their foundation, powder and lipsticks. So as soon as they released the Blurring + Micro-Correcting Concealer with Peptide Complex ($48) I…

Over the past year, I have purchased quite a few of the Gucci Luminous Matte blushes ($49) The original formula has been great – extremely bendable and pigmented, and matte without being flat. They actually worked extremely well when paired with their Illuminating Gel-Powder Highlighter ($59). I use these blushes very regularly, with my favorites…

I’ve always been a big fan of Tati Westbrook (@GlamLifeGuru) and have been watching her videos for years. She always seems to give her honest opinion about products, both high-end and drugstore, and is open with her audience when she is being sponsored or is working with a particular brand. So years ago, when she…

Danessa Myricks has done it again. She created a set of color sticks that rocked my world!

These sticks have a cooling sensation, and can be used…

For holiday 2024, Dolce & Gabbana released an eyeshadow palette that completely wow’ed me. The packaging, the formula, the blendability, the colors…all were utter perfection. It quickly became one of my most used palettes, and I looked forward to what D&G came out with next. And then…almost a year with no new eyeshadows. But that…

A while back I wrote about my favorite shampoo and conditioner, the Baobab On A Cloud line from R+Co. I used this product line for quite a few years, and my hair always loved them. That is until a couple of weeks ago, when I read about a K-Beauty hair line by Dr. Groot. I…

Last week I finally purchased the three new Prada Light Glowing Highlighter Power ($90 each) from Nordstrom. I had heard amazing things about them, and decided it was time to jump in and try them. And I am so glad I did. These highlighters are pure perfection, especially for more mature skin. The highlighters come…

I was recently told about the new lip balm by Ole Hendrickson, called Pout Preserve Peptide Lip Treatment ($22 each), and decided that I wanted to try it. I’m obsessed with finding a great lip balm that hydrates, lasts and has color. I went into Sephora and they were out of almost all of the…

These highlighters are breathtaking.   The…
