I haven't done a massive product review post in quite some time (I know, I know I have been slacking) but there are several products that I've purchased that I have not yet reviewed and a few favorites that have made a major comeback in my routine that I want to sing the praises of, yet again.

Fall Beauty Picks from H-E-B
Every time I grocery shop with my husband, towards the end of the shopping trip I will sneak away to cruise the beauty aisles. I don't always have a purchase in mind, I just like to check out what's new and what looks exciting.

A Girls Night Out with Almay- CC Cream Review

This is a direct quote ...
Do Men Really Hate Makeup?
I recently saw an article on Jezebel.com titled "Men Hate Makeup" And Other Annoying Myths.The article cited this story in the UK Daily Mail. I find this topic so interesting, because personally, I couldn't imagine always being bare-faced. Not only does makeup enhance my apperance and features, it also makes me feel good.But when it really comes ...
