Hello, all!  I've been in a cleaning mode lately and have been organising my clothes, makeup and...basically everything. I've discovered that I've actually been using up more products than I had realised, so it's time for an AB edition of "trash talk": where I talk about my empties, do a quick review and then can throw out my trash. Enjoy!! ...

I've been spending some well-needed time dedicating myself to cleaning out, organising and using a number of my makeup and skincare products. I've also spent time rearranging how I'm displaying products on my desk (a makeshift vanity, for now), and I've also discovered a number of products that I've disliked. I've set these products in a Sephora bag (or like....three...shh....), kept them near...

It's a showdown! Last summer, I saw a similar version of the famous It's Skin macaron lip balm at my local Forever21.  I decided to buy the F21 version because while it doesn't help raise awareness for buying the actual original lip balm, I wanted to compare the two. 対決だ！去年の夏近くのForever21の店でけっこう人気イッツスキンのマカロンリップバームのみたいのLove & Beautyのマカロンリップバームのバーションを見ましたが、 誰がオリジナルのリップバームを購入して鼓舞させない, 両のリップバームを比較して欲しかったのでとりあえずF21のバーションを購入しました。 What baffles me is how Forever21--a company founded by...

I also hadn't heard about hallabong fruit but kind of understood that it is likely within...

I made the mistake of ordering from TK, around the Thanksgiving/Black Friday period, but I don't regret it. My order went through relatively quickly, but it felt like AGES until I received it.  I ordered November 22nd; the order shipped on November 29th and I just welcomed my beauty-ful box of goodies into my arms, mid-morning on Jan 4th. ...

2015 is quickly coming to a close, and I thought I'd wrap up with a quick post about some favourite AB products that I enjoyed this year.  I got into AB more earlier this year, but focused mostly on skincare and easing some skin issues I have during the summertime, particularly redness and dry, dehydrated skin. These aren't necessarily products released in 2015,...

Hello, all!! I've been on a slight hunt in the last week or so, trying to find Physican's Formula Mineral Wear Cushion as seen on Instagram and blogs in the past few days. I wanted to find the cushion in the lightest shade and to try the feel of a cushion before purchasing a more..AB cushion. The ladies at my local ULTA hadn't...
