Sensitive Skin Shaving Tips
I hate shaving more than I hate washing dishes (which is a lot). I get razor burn/ingrown hairs more often and more easily as I get older for some reason, which is frustrating. In other words, shaving is a nightmare! I get razor burn, ingrown hairs, and swollen lymph nodes... Everything horrible that could happen from shaving materializes on my body. Thank goodness I am well past the nicking-myself phase. If I cut myself every time I shaved I couldn't use some of my shaving solutions because it would burn! I have tried many things to prevent these things from happening, and I think I have finally figured out how to solve my shaving saga.

The Malika by Blush Tribe
Disclaimer: This is not a full review because I won’t have used and/or tested all the shadows, as this a very new product in my collection. I am a neutral reviewer, or I try to be.

Foundations You Need
As a makeup artist, I have tried almost every foundation known to man, within my budget, of course. From $43 to $6, these are my favorite foundations I use year round. I pick and choose which ones I want to use from time to time. If I have extra money to spend, I'll go with the more expensive brand just to give myself a little reward. If I am on a budget (which seems to be all the time) I will go for the more cheaper priced foundation. Either way, I am always satisfied with my makeup. Anyway, here are my top favorite foundations.

Four Common Mistakes Clients Make at the Salon
Sometimes, going to the salon can become somewhat of a tough feat for the client. It's difficult enough to go somewhere trusting a person with your outward appearance (in a society today that makes the most out of appearances in the first place), but sometimes the clients forget (or choose not) to help the stylist out in a few simple ways.

How I Am Curing My Breakouts & Dry Skin
Unfortunately I have been graced with skin that is as dry as a desert. It has always been that way. And along with that, my skin is prone to break-outs. A combination that is not preferable. Many "acne-prone skin" products are tailored towards that which is also oily. I have found that they are generally very drying for my already dry skin so I have been stuck finding the right products for both my skin issues. And on top of both these issues, my skin is scarred from previous breakouts, especially along each of my cheekbones and my chin.
