There were two eyeshadow palettes used to create the eye look: the Tarte Tarteist Pro Remix Eyeshadow Palette and the Alyssa Edwards Eyeshadow Palette. Both are ones that I reach for often.…

As wonderful as it is to treat myself to items from Sephora every now and then, the drugstore, discount stores, and dollar stores are frequented far more often.

When One/Size announced a Wicked themed makeup collection, there was no question about whether or not something from the line would be added to my makeup collection. Though there were a few different products, ultimately,…
