Face Makeup

macfix

I’ve long been a user of Bare Minerals and absolutely loved their foundation. I still recommend it for people who don’t have scars or acne to cover, it really is a great product it just doesn’t cover very well. I do not, however, recommend their new matte finish foundation. I tried it out last month, and it goes on smooth but looks splotchy in the {Read More}

Two months ago I was, perhaps a little too emphatically, watching mid-term election results and accidentally “flopped” down on the arm of the chair instead of into the chair. It was one of those moments when you think “I’m an adult, I cannot cry…but I want to really badly.” The initial shock of the injury wore off after about thirty minutes of complete silence in {Read More}
