Kylie Jenner’s Skincare Line has been revealed
There has been a lot of controversy around Kylie Jenner and well, her entire family. However, I am of the opinion that you don’t necessarily have to like someone in order to like their products. I am not going to go into the whole drama surrounding Kylie and for family. All I know is that…
The Ugly Truth
The pressure of being perfect and of doing everything in a perfect manner is becoming more and more absurd as well as unhealthy, don’t you think?

Huxley Secret of Sahara Oil-Essence
I first tried Huxley back in September when I got the Harvey Nichols Gift with Purchase from Autumn 2018. Back then I had no idea which products to choose from the store’s Beyond Beauty lineup. The products I had in mind to purchase were not qualifying products for the promotion so I decided to venture…
Murad Age Reform Aha/Bha Exfoliating Cleanser
A few years back when I first started investing more seriously in my skincare routine so that I could finally get rid of some nasty spots, I turned to acids. At that time they were not as popular as they are now, nor were they easily available. At least, not as far as I knew…

So Cult Beauty screwed me over…

VS Pink Scrub Down Coconut Oil Smoothing Body Scrub

Is an original Beauty Blender worth it?

Balmi Mint Lip Balm from I Love Cosmetics
I got my hands on the tiny little lip balm from Balmi by chance, to be honest. It was part of a beauty box that I purchased during a period of irrational anxiety that I was going through for my graduation ceremony. Who does that? Anyway, the Balmi Mint lip balm was just sitting there…
Grow Gorgeous Scalp Detox Review
I honestly don’t remember how I got my hands on this scalp detox products from Grow Gorgeous, but if I were to guess, I would say that it was in the Look Fantastic Beauty Advent Calendar in 2017. The reason why I am sure it is not the Grow Gorgeous products included in the 2018…

Cold weather is simply the worst. Not only it makes it impossible to go outside at times, depending on where you are living, but it also makes your skin feel super uncomfortable and leads to cracked lips. Who wants cracked lips?
