Coming Soon: New Spring Beauty

Coming Soon: New Spring Beauty
The Boom Boom Bloom collection from Mac Cosmetics couldn’t be any more “spring” if it tried. Inspired by cherry blossoms and adorned in their pink petals, I’m excited about the packaging alone. It arrives March 7th.

Nails! Kristen

Nails! Kristen
This is a lighter, yet funkier hue that I'm kind of in love with at the moment. It's a light, greyish blue that just seems to go with everything. I wouldn't call it a sky blue unless maybe a cloudy sky blue. Perhaps more of a light denim blue. I don't care what you call it, Krist…

First up: POWER My thoughts :  Nyx lipstick in Power is highly pigmented for such a light color.  It is lavender.  Period.  Power is different but it works because it's so feminine. Feel :  This is a Nyx Extra Creamy Lipstick a…
