Sephora Sale Recommendations – Spring 2024

The Sephora sale runs April 5-April 15 (Rouge starts the 5th; VIP and Insider starts the 9th). The percentage depends on insider status – Rouge gets 20%, VIP gets 15%, and Insider gets 10%. I already have my cart ready, but I have some recommendations of my own to share. These are products I absolutely love and use frequently in my makeup/beauty routines.

February Lipsticks of the Day

Lipsticks are one of my favorite makeup items. I love a neutral eye with a pop of color on the lips, or a bold eye look with a neutral lip. I also love a bold eye look with a colorful lip, or a neutral eye look with a neutral lip shade. My friend Priyanka and I (check out her beauty blog here) challenged ourselves in Feburary to share one lippie a day on Tik Tok. It was fun, challenging, and successful, and I thought I’d share them here also. I tried to include multiple brands, formulas, finishes, shades…

New Year’s Eve at The Grove

Happy 2024! I’m a little late on this post, but it has already been a busy year. I wanted to share some pictures from my New Year’s Eve, and just talk a little about 2024 and my plans for the year. I had a blast on New Year’s Eve. I spent it at The Grove (one of my favorite spots in Lexington), with some of my blogger friends, and it was so lovely. 2023 was a rough year. I had Covid for a second time, we had a couple of holidays later than usual…

Terra Moons Cosmetics Shadows

In 2022, I discovered duo and multi chrome eyeshadows, and dove right into exploring these beauties. I think I found Terra Moons Cosmetics on Instagram (follow me here, and Terra Moons Cosmetics here), and placed an order recently. They have a ton of single shadows available, and they all looked so gorgeous. I thought I’d share swatches of the shadows I ordered. Sometimes it’s really hard to tell in the pans what the shadows look like when they’re so shifty, so I hope this helps! Note: I tried to get different angles of the…

Valentine’s Day Palettes

Valentine’s Day and Galentine’s Day are right around the corner. I love a good Valentine’s Day makeup palette and eye look, so I wanted to share some palettes that I think are perfect Valentine’s Day palettes. I love pinks, berries, reds, and I think these palettes really fit that theme. If you want to see some looks I create with these palettes, as well as some fun makeup tutorials, please follow my Instagram and Tik Tok!

The Perfect Holiday Red Lip

The holidays are here, and a classic red lip is always in style. There are so many formulas and finishes for lipsticks, so I’m here to share some of my favorite red lipsticks to help you create the perfect holiday red lip. Most of these options are available at local retailers like Ulta and Sephora, so they should be available to snag before Christmas and New Years, and everything in between! I have quite a few red lipsticks in my collection, in different tones and finishes. Some have a creamy formula, some are glossy, and some are very…

2021 Project Pan

2021 has been here for a bit, so I want to restart my project pan series. I’ve done this in the past (check out this post for my 2018 project pan), and it really motivates me, so it’s something I want to continue. It really helps keep me on track to use up some of my makeup and skincare, which is always a good thing. Scroll to the bottom for a complete list of my previous project pan posts I know it’s already the end of February, but I’ve already been working…

10 Favorite Fall Eyeshadow Palettes

Fall is almost here. Seriously, we’re under a week away. If you’ve been here a while, you know Fall is my favorite. If you’re new here, hi! Be ready to see a TON of Fall content. The weather is cooling down here in Kentucky, and my little heart is ready to come alive. Makeup is one of my passions, and Fall is really my time to shine with beauty knowledge (I am not an expert by any means, but happy to share what I know about what I love!). I’m sharing 10…

Ulta Beauty released their schedule for Fall 2020’s Ulta 21 Days of Beauty. This year it will be August 30-September 19.

Ulta Beauty Harry Potter Collection

Ok, Ulta released a Harry Potter collection, and it combined two of my loves: Harry Potter and makeup. This collection is gorgeous, and I’m actually really impressed. I wanted to share some swatches and thoughts. I probably should have done this post earlier. All the palettes are already sold out, and I’m not sure if they’re coming back. I’ll be sure to link what I can and keep an eye out for rereleases. It’s only been three weeks since the whole set was released, which is crazy. They released a…
