When I first swatched Illamasqua’s cream blushes, it was love. Love at first swatch. I was so impressed with the quality of Illamasqua, that I went back to check out the rest of their makeup.
Recently I picked up two blushes from...

Inglot Face Primer
Makeup Forever HD Foundation
Benefit’s Erase Paste Concealer
Mac’s Coral Crepe Paint Pot
Wet n Wild’s Penny...

Facial February: Brazilian Peel
This weekend I treated myself to a first treatment of the Brazilian Peel. This peel contains 30% glycolic acid, Q-Mag Neutralizer, and a natural antioxidant known as acai. I did a little research and discovered that this peel has one of the highest glycolic acid concentrations sold to the general public. Glycolic acid is known to improve the skin’s appearance and texture by helping...
