You’re probably sick of me complaining about my dry lips. Well, I have finally found a product that seems to make a real difference. Do you know it? Jack Black Intense Therapy Lip Balm. It is part of a men’s skincare line called Jack Black Authentic and Original, but as far as I’m concerned, lip balm …
Urban Decay Black Market 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil Set
It must have been my radar that sought it out, but I can’t remember how I found out about the Urban Decay website sale. (An email alert, maybe?) I had just received my April ipsy bag, and I was one of the lucky ones who received a travel size 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil in Black …

Beauty Blogazons Weekly Roundup 21 April 2014
Hi ladies, Hope you had a good week! My big accomplishment this week was figuring out how to switch my blogpost delivery software over to Mailchimp from the failing Feedburner. How about you? Anything special going on? Here are this week’s beauty blogposts from Beauty Blogazons. It’s rainy here today, and the perfect day to …
Too Faced Lip Insurance
During a recent promo on toofaced.com, I purchased Too Faced Matte Eyes. In addition to the relatively deep discount, Too Faced sent along three sample size products: Too Faced Lashgasm (that I’ll review another time), Shadow Insurance and Lip Insurance, Smoothing, Anti-Feathering Lip Primer. About a …
Tarte Amazonian Butter Lipstick, pink peony
I’m a sucker for pretty packaging and I fell in love with the look of the tube of Tarte’s flowered lip balm for Spring 2014. I saw the shade “pink peony” online, and it’s the pinky peach that I fall for over and over again. I probably have a million lippies in this shade. …
Travalo Refillable Travel Perfume Spray
I like to take perfume with me when I travel, and I was traveling a lot this winter. No big deal, I thought. I’ll just decant some of my favorite perfume into a little container. Not so easy, I discovered. I found out that I can’t unscrew the top of the spray bottle. It’s sealed …
Beauty Blog Coalition April 14 2014
Hey gals, I hope you’re having a lovely holiday weekend either getting together with family and friends or just relaxing. I’m off to my cousins’ house for a holiday lunch this afternoon. If you have a bit of spare time today or during the week for a little extra beauty blog reading, here are this …

Beauty Rocks April 2014 ipsy Glam Bag
This month, I received my Beauty Rocks Glam Bag from ipsy right on my birthday. It was like getting another present, especially since I didn’t get very many presents this year. (That’s OK, I got lots of gorgeous flowers instead!). I made an “unboxing” video in case you want to see what I got that …
Giveaway: em Michelle Phan Tokyo Plums Palette
Happy Birthday to me, Happy Birthday to me… It’s my birthday today, so what better day to start a giveaway on my blog than with a gift for one of you! And because spring looks like it may finally be on its way, I’d like to give away something that is, well, spring-y. 🙂 …
CoverGirl truBlend Liquid Makeup
A few weeks ago, there was a huge free-standing display in my little local CVS. It took up a lot of real estate in the small store so it really got my attention. The display even included testers, a novelty in the drugstore but a must for finding a good match in foundation. Enter CoverGirl …
Weekly Roundup from Beauty Blog Coalition 7 April 2014
Hi ladies, We finally had a real spring day yesterday in MA and hopefully today will be the same. I managed to spend several hours working in the yard. I even dug up five 12 year old, firmly entrenched lavender plants that got too woody to save. Looking forward to putting in a new garden …
The Beauty Blogazons Weekly Roundup, 7 April 2014
Hi Ladies, Boy, this week went by fast! Busy week for me, but I managed to get to Sephora to use my 15% off Beauty Insiders coupon. How about you? What’s on your agenda for the weekend? I’m hoping it’ll be warm enough to do a little raking the leaves out of my gardens. And …
Zoya Nail Polish, Tinsley: More Rose Gold for Spring
Rose gold has been hot for months. I started seeing it last summer, and it was everywhere this past autumn and winter. Thankfully, it’s still here for spring. Rose gold is my favorite metallic. As I’ve mentioned before, it looks great on redheads. But I think it looks good on everyone because it’s such a …
