Makeup Products That Offer Sun Protection
Summer always seems so glamorous from far away: bathing suits, beaches, blue skies, sun.Those lovely UV rays can wreak serious havoc on your skin though, causing problems from unsightly sunburns, to tan lines, all the way up to the more serious, long-term side effects like melanoma. Protecting your skin from the sun requires real foresight; you cannot always apply the how-to's of protecting your skin from the sun naturally. It's important to always wear sunscreen and to take a break in the shade if you're feeling burned or dehydrated, but you can further protect your skin by using makeup products that offer sun protection as well. That way, you kill two birds with one stone: You look fabulous while you're out and about, and keeping it that way while protecting your skin.

Alternatives and First Impressions for ABH Norvina
Disclaimer: If you’re a die hard fan of ABH or Norvina, please feel free to leave. If I had to choose one brand per product or even everything, it would be ABH. I legit have more stuff from them than anyone else. I love the quality, but I do not like the road they are going down. It is my opinion and I solely speak as a customer who is simply looking at the palette from a conscious buyer’s perspective.

New Face and Confidence With Semi-Permanent Makeup
What if there was a way for your face to always be ready to go, no matter the situation? There is, it’s called micro-blading or powder brows, depending on the procedure that is chosen. To learn more about this process, I talked with New Face owner Christine Hwang about all things semi-permanent makeup. She was also kind enough to let me sit in on a session where she tattooed eyebrows on to a client. It was an eye-opening experience.

11 Things I Don’t Like About Makeup Palettes
Disclaimer: I am a collector of eyeshadow palettes and lipsticks. But just because you have the freedom to spend money on some materialistic happiness does not mean you should not think through your purchase. Even if I was rolling in money, I would still be a conscious buyer. Not because I am stingy. Not because I am a cheapskate. Not because I can’t afford it. Having money does not justify hoarding. I know that if I don’t like something right off the bet, the probable chances of me using it regularly are nill. Having said that, I do NOT want to add to garbage, waste, landfills. We are very conscious about animal rights in the makeup world these days (which is an extremely good thing). But we should also take all steps possible that will help out our Mother Earth. At the end of the day some of these reasons may not make sense, or are biased. But the results are very practical for my wallet, a mess free home, and most importantly, the environment. I have not talked about any particular brands and have no intention throw shade at any brands indirectly. Many brands exemplify all of my points, so stay calm in your pants. I do not take any responsibility for hurt sentimentalities, except to say that it was completely unintentional.
