The Pint Sized Purse for 2015

Wednesday, February 25, 2015

            
All my life I’ve been obsessed with small things. Whether it is a small bottle of something I have a regular size in, a dollhouse (a complete small-scale version of a house! For dolls! Amazing! Tiny architecture!), or just anything in a small or miniature size, I’m in love. For the New Year, I’ve purchased a new “tiny” purse from Rebecca Minkoff. Ever since it arrived, I’ve dubbed it ‘my tiny purse’ to anyone who will listen, especially since I was using quite a large Tory Burch before.

NARS Dual-Intensity Palette (aka the prettiest palette EVER)

Monday, February 23, 2015


It was love at first sight when I was scrolling through my Instagram feed one day and my thumb paused on a photo of NARS’ newest palette. The Dual-Intensity Eyeshadow Palette is my first Narsissist palette and it’s quickly become the prettiest thing I own (but the Charlotte Tilbury Dolce Vita is up there, too). Even nestled inside is a mini Wet-Dry brush; this palette couldn’t be anymore perfect.

Mini MAC Haul

Sunday, February 22, 2015


Ah, yes; another mini MAC haul post. It’s been several months since I made a visit to MAC and actually bought something. As a present to myself last month (because who doesn’t purchase presents for themselves during through the holiday season?), I picked up two eye shadows that have been collecting dust on my list of MAC shadows that I’ve wanted. MAC’s shadows are brilliant as always and are always worth the purchase.

Finally, the Primer that works

Friday, February 20, 2015


            When painting a house, a room, or anything really, primer is an essential to make everything smooth and have a lasting finish. A proper face primer is just as important; it helps create that super smooth base to make foundation application easier. I’ve wrestled with several different ones but, at last, I think I found the one.

Music Favorites | January

Friday, January 30, 2015


            Call this post a new regular monthly addition amongst the make up posts that usually rest cozily here. Music is just as important to me as makeup; I’m usually listening to music whilst putting on my make up, so they really do go hand and hand. A new year doesn’t necessarily mean new music (well, sometimes it does), but this year so far has definitely shown a revival of music from the past into new tunes that top the charts. Hello and goodbye January – you’ve been full of new and wonderful tunes.
