I Tried HUM’s Daily Cleanse Supplement & Here’s What Happened. Top Story - August 2018. Created with: HUM.
If there’s one thing I can honestly say, it’s that I do not exactly have a good diet. Ask anyone who knows me; it’s true. It’s one of those things that I’ve really been ashamed of and have slowly (very slowly) been working to correct.

Disclaimer: I spend my dough, that gives me the right to have an opinion. If ABH pays your bills, by all means, leave. As we “intelligent” human beings know, understand, and (should) accept, it is impossible to like or dislike everything from a single brand (Subculture anyone?). A bad product does and will reflect on a brand. It is what it is. I am always a devil’s advocate because what may or may not work for me will work vice versa for someone else. So the gist is that this review is based on my experience, and skin type (medium-tan with pale undertone and oily skin).

I Used Organic Body Oil on My Hair and This Is What Happened. Top Story - July 2018.
There are a lot of things I have managed to tame over the years. I’ve managed to tame my wild style into something that looks visually appealing. I’ve been able to get my driving style to be a bit tamer than it used to be when I first started driving. I’ve even been able to tame my spending habits—for the most part.

Moroccan Spice Palette
First Looks The palette and packaging are both a beautiful navy blue, almost purple color. The cover of the palette has beautiful—what looks like—smoke clouds of magenta, pink, and purple in the center, as well as the Fenty Beauty name. The back of the palette has all of the names of each of the shades inside of the palette. The names correspond to the other side of the palette. If you're looking at the first color on the right of the packaging sticker, then that will be the first color on the right inside the palette. The palette itself is made of plastic and is suggested to last nine months from opening, according to the label given on the back of the palette.

Subversive by Pat McGrath Labs
Disclaimer: Critiquing a brand is not a crime. Threatening someone over it, however is. I bought this eyeshadow with my own hard earned money, therefore I have the right to form an opinion on it. I consider myself to be a neutral reviewer, where I talk about both the pros and cons based on my experiences. Trust me that I can find at least one of each in an overall good or bad item. I am a medium-tan girl with a pale undertone and oily skin. It’s still available on the market for those who would like to pick up this limited edition palette.

Masquerade by Juvia’s Place. Top Story - July 2018.
Disclaimer: This might be a bit long! I take no responsibility for your hurt sentiments, except to say it was unintentional. I paid with my hard earned money, hence the opinion. I ordered this in September, 2017. Wow, almost a year. So I have an in-depth experience with this one. I am a tan medium skin shade with a pale undertone and oily skin.

Top 5 Eyeshadow Palette Regrets vs. Delights
Disclaimer: My intention is not hurt your fan hood sentiments. So if makeup brands break your bread, so to speak, then perhaps this is not the post for you. I have absolutely nothing against these brands or their “faces” whatsoever. I personally did not get my money’s worth out of these eyeshadow palettes for one reason or another. And all of these reasons have to do with the element of how they performed (application, weartime, blendibility) for me. Me, having oily, darkish skin tone.

Best Skin Cleansers and Face Washes for Oily Skin
Finding skin cleansers and face washes for oily skin can be tough. All skin types are different (make sure you find out what type you are!) and skin types with excess oil are particularly hard to control, because many facial cleansers make the skin feel too dried out, or worse, continue to make them even more oily. Washes for oily skin must be oil free, of course, and contain strong ingredients for acne prone skin such as salicylic acid, glycolic acid, or some other ingredients for oil control. Here are some of the best on the market today.

The Problem with Eyeshadow Palettes
Disclaimer: I do not care how or where you spend your money. Whether you’re rich or poor, how you use your money is none of my business. No one knows their priorities better than themselves, regardless if those priorities are “good or bad.” If some people prioritize makeup over basic needs, all the power to them. But I can most definitely have an opinion on how a purchase and product itself is a waste of money, generally speaking, from a very practical perspective. Today’s topic is eyeshadow palettes from an opinion of someone who likes to collect these things. My main problem(s)? Take a look down below.
