Posted on September 2, 2011March 30, 2020 by Elaine

I have been so curious about eye lash extensions ever since I first read about them on Tiffany’s blog I Am Styl-ish. I read this post even before I started blogging so when I began blogging about beauty I had it written down as something I wanted to research. I was EXTREMELY excited when I…

Let’s Talk Body Oils

Posted on August 25, 2011November 23, 2014 by Elaine

I’m a huge fan of body oils. You need to replace the natural oils in your body after stripping your skin of them after a shower – I’m doing my skin such a favor by using a body oil alone right after a shower or layering it under a light moisturizer.  Not only do body oils moisturize…

The Beauty Board was Buzzing…wish you were there!

Do you remember the first Beauty Board I attended? Well the 5th Beauty Board was once again a huge success.  So many products to test out, great tunes, amazing food and so many people to mingle with…so much so that I was so distracted and didn’t take as many pictures as I wanted to 🙁…

Shorts and a Blazer

Posted on August 18, 2011November 23, 2014 by Elaine

I have been seeing girls rocking shorts and a blazer all summer long.  I love how shorts keep you cool and are really casual and a blazer can just dress it up!  Heels make it even more fancy and flats are perfect for brunch or shopping! Blazer: H&M Blouse:  LOFT Shorts: Banana Republic Factory Shoes:…

A longer video, because there’s a lot to talk ab A longer video, because there’s a lot to talk about here. 🫤 I’ll be reaching out to the company in question to make them aware of the situation, but I wanted to share it with you all as well. 

How is this type of thing still happening, even in the age of AI? If a high-tech “smart tool” can’t properly recognize and accommodate diverse skin tones, then it needs further development and should not yet be released. End of story. 

Use your purchasing power to support brands that are inclusive in their product development, testing, promotion, AND corporate structure. Every action has impact.

Soft Smudge be matte, shimmer, or glossy depending on how you combine it with other KJH products. And it’s not just the texture that changes - it’s the color as well! 🤯

Getting to play with the re-release of @lancomeofficial #JuicyTubes has been such a fun throwback! ✨ I remember thinking they were the ultimate ~Cool Girl~ makeup product when they first came out and reading about them as a beauty must-have in every magazine (J14 anyone?! 😂) They were basically the “grown up” version of Lip Smackers! 

Gotta say, applying one of their trademark frosted, shiny shades now is making 12 year old me *very* happy. 

Now excuse me while I reapply Lavender Latte and blast some Britney 👄💿

Do you remember these 00s classics?

Their Date Night special (usually $120, which is still an amazing deal) is only $90 until further notice! 

We had an amazing experience there and left feeling so full and so happy. The chef even made me a special entree (with no advance notice) when I wasn’t able to eat the other options because of my allergies 🥹. Now that’s service!

Real ones know: @kjh.brand IS that girl when it co Real ones know: @kjh.brand IS that girl when it comes to versatile, innovative products with stunning payoff. ✨

Their Soft Smudge Lip & Cheek stick is incredible. A cream-to-powder formula(!!!!), this baby is buildable, blendable, and beautiful. 

Plus, with just a drop of KJH.Brand Hyper Shine Serum, it transforms into a glossy, rich sheen of luxurious color. 

I’ve used it on my eyes, lips, and cheeks in both glossy and matte textures, and love it each time. It’s genuinely like having 5 products in one. 😍

Have you tried anything from @kjh.brand yet?

Gang’s all here! 👯‍♀️ I truly love the Gang’s all here! 👯‍♀️

I truly love these @milkmakeup Cooling Water Jelly Tints and wear at least one daily on some combo of eyes, lips, and cheeks. The color payoff is 🤯, the longevity is 😍. They’ve got vegan collagen and aloe to plump and soothe skin. 

For an easy, juicy burst of color this summer, grab yours at @sephoracanada! 🌊
