Too Faced Bon Bons Eyeshadow Palette

I have been wanting to own one of Too Faced's chocolate palettes, ever since the very first one came out. I've walked by it at Sephora and took a sniff, grab one for my basket, and then I put it back after walking around in the store because I kept telling myself I just do not need another neutral eyeshadow palette! I try to justify my beauty purchases and prioritize which I do want to get first. Finally, the

became my top priority! 

personal post: Traveling Solo

I'm not sure how it started but hubby suggested I go to London without him. Financially, it would be cheaper since we don't have to board the (3)fur babies. He'll work from home (he actually ended up taking those days off) so he can take care of the babies. At first I was like. "Sure!", and then,

 "Are you serious? Is this a serious talk because I would really love to go back!", and then, 

"Wait I'm going alone? Flying alone? Staying in a different country alone?". 

He started looking at tickets and it started kicking in,
I am taking a trip alone!

Shade Adjusting Drops from The Body Shop

When I started getting into makeup, I didn't expect to have a hard time finding the right foundation for my skin. It was so complicated! I had no idea what "skin undertone" meant (cool, neutral or warm) besides knowing my skin shade is! I wasn't sure how much coverage (light, medium, full) I wanted, and what finish do I prefer (matte, luminous...)? 

Overwhelming but it was a great learning process to know my skin a little bit more!

Luckily, the cosmetics world is always evolving and these

may help you find that right foundation ASAP.

What's New from The Makeup Show NYC 2016

Every year, I look forward to The Makeup Show NYC like how kids look forward to Disneyland (like "I'm too excited to sleep" kind of vibes)!
 This is pretty much "my Disneyland" where I get to see what's new in the makeup work; to shop more makeup that this girl do not need, and to learn from some of the most talented and successful makeup artists all in one place!

A lot of beauty brands as well will launch their new products here, and I have a few here from
