review: grease x revolution (it’s the word shadow palette)

review: essence lash without limits mascara
As prices continue to increase on both essential and non-essential items…it is nice to find beauty products that do not break the bank.

testing out some grease inspired makeup products
Grease is the time, is the place, is the motion. Grease is the way we are feeling. Though many movies have inspired me during my lifetime, Grease is high on the list. When I was a child, I remember being obsessed with the music and the clothes. I desperately wanted to be Sandy…pre-makeover. A lot of…
