Don’t kill me, I’m trying something new with ads because mama has to pay the bills. Blogging isn’t cheap 🙂 I have a massive server bill to pay not to mention other expenses from the blog so, please forgive me while I try something new out with ads.
If you experience sluggishness, lag, or you find the current ads intrusive please let me know and I’ll do my best to make the experience better for you!
I hope the new ads work faster and won’t bother you too much!

I question whether I need new shades of Hourglass Ambient Strobe Lighting Blush. Do I, don’t I? I’m waffling at the moment if I need these. You see, I’m not a huge, huge fan of Hourglass Ambient Strobe Lighting Blush. I’m literally ducking my head the moment just in case someone throws something at me for saying that. I was a bit disappointed with them when they first launched because I thought they’d have this gorgeous glow but they don’t!?
Not to mention, the fact that the new shades look so much like the old shades in the permanent collection and P.S. some have been available in past palettes. But, in their defense, I will say promo images are hard to judge from. Just look at Lancome Le Metallique Liquid Shadow in Mocha! It looks red in promo images but is in fact brown.
Anyway, here’s the Hourglass Ambient Strobe Lighting Blush new shades!
Coachella kicks off this weekend and I can’t help but think of that one time I went and was absolutely miserable but still happy I got to see Best Coast perform. I am an avid concert attendee. I’ve been blessed to see some of the greatest bands and singers ever on stage from Tom Jones and Donovan to Marilyn Manson, Pearl Jam, and In this Moment (literally just seen them this past weekend). But I am not a musical festival type of person. I’ve been to a few but I’d honestly rather be stuffed in the middle of a mosh pit with hundreds of sweating bodies versus walking around in the heat at a musical festival.
People, Coachella is no joke. If you can survive that crazy ass heat you have my full blessing. I remember seeing photos of Emma Watson at Coachella looking flawlessly beautiful, easy, and breezy. She was wandering around like she was in an air conditioned shopping mall. Yeah, it’s the desert!? How the hell are you not melting in a puddle? I mean ok, typically it’s not that hot in the morning but as you head deeper into the afternoon things heat up fast and there isn’t a ton of shade. Granted, they have misters around as well a few shady areas. But let’s be honest here, that’s also a lot of sun too!
Needless to say this is the time of the year that public relations start pitching me a slew of “music festival makeup ideas” and I’m sitting there here all like, puh-leez! I am not going to recommend people wear your full coverage foundation in sweltering heat because I don’t care how long wearing you promise it to be, in the heat it’s melting off.

Hey, for under $6 bucks you probably need a Rainbow Highlighter in your life and Forever 21 has your back. Forever 21 Rainbow Highlighter arrives just in time for Spring 2017 in a shimmering wave of multi-colors. Earlier last week, Ulta released a Rainbow Highlighter for ten bucks but the Forever 21 one is even cheaper at $5.90. I still question how many mermaids, unicorns, and magical moments I need in my makeup life. I’m not so sure about the rainbow trend of the moment but I won’t knock it either because people are all kinds of creative on Instagram when using these types of products.
If you’re wanting to embrace the trend yourself I’m sure dishing out under six bucks for a Rainbow Highlighter is a lot friendlier than Tarte’s $30 one.
Get this one at forever21.com with Free Shipping on orders of $21 or more using promo code FEST21.
