Some will read the title "Liquid Liner" and immediately hit the back button. Liquids can be a little intimidating, a little messy and a little hard to conquer without a little trial and error. That was me FOR YEARS. But once you master it, you can say goodbye to that shaky, inconsistent line that pencils usually leave behind and HELLO to that solid and sleek eyeliner that you see all over the beauty blogs. (Doesn't it feel like you're the ONLY one who can't get it just-right?

Mascara can be hard. What many people forget: mascara is ultimately an extension of the hair on your head. If your hair is naturally stick-straight, its often a rarity to have eyelashes that will curl-up like crazy. If your hair is super thick, it’s pretty normal to see thicker eyelashes when you look in the mirror. Again, this is an OFTEN scenario…not always. Color-treatments and medications will affect your hair and its ability to hold color, hold curl, look thicker, etc. W

I will HONESTLY, (hand on 27 Bibles,) buy this eye treatment as long as it exists. Forever, ever. Coming from a top-tier Department store background, I unintentionally expect to be shocked or amazed by Drugstore products sometimes. I FULLY prove myself wrong time and time again with Drugstore Month but I have total moments of "Yeah...this won't ever possssssibly be as good as something from Nordstrom." Then I find something like amazing eyeshadow primers, a stellar eyebrow pe

Oooooook. I'll go ahead and go out on a limb here and say it... THIS YEAR'S DRUGSTORE MONTH IS ONE HUNDRED TIMES BETTER THAN LAST YEAR. There. Said it. What I like to do: buy two or three items for each feature to review. For example: three blushes, two foundations, and so on, and so forth. EYELINERS are a little tricky because there are so many different formulas and types. Pencils, gels, twist-ups, liquids, etc. Soooo, in order to pick the "Best eyeliner"...we will try out

What better way to start off MUWM Drugstore month than with the FIRST item that I use everyday when I start my own makeup?? Eye shadow/eye shadow primer! If you just read that and thought, “Wait what…eye shadow first??” then this extra is for you: DID YOU KNOW….Starting with your eye-makeup FIRST (before your face,) will keep your under-eye looking SO much clearer, brighter and fresher throughout the day?? Imagine it: you blend all of your eye shadows to completion, finish yo

Welcome to February. ...to the semi-end of winter, ...to the saddest month of the year for us Seattleites, (RIP Superbowl 49) ...and to MUWM DRUGSTORE MONTH. THE WHY: For years, I've worked for multiple cosmetic lines which exposed me to a TON of Dept. store brands early-on. While I will always love some of those products that hooked me years ago, I've still got bills that have gotta be paid and don't always want to spend SO much on fancy cosmetics. After running into one or

Makeup With Me’s Guide to All-brown-everything this season Remember that old-school cardinal rule that your mom/older sister/babysitter used to tell you like a million years ago? “Brown and black don’t go together. It’s either one, or the other.” I remember thinking brown was SO gross when I was younger. If I ever had the option of choosing shoes in either color…black won in a landslide victory. But times…they are a’changin. In real-life…(hello all-black-everything with brown

Well…its arrived: the time to bid adieu to those corals and pinks in your makeup bag and banish them to that special bottom-drawer in your bathroom until next summer. I hate it, but it’s gotta happen. Fall has a lot to offer us this year so thankfully, we’ve got plenty to look forward to when it comes to makeup. Richer tones, lots of smoky deliciousness and bold pops of color that’ll make people ask you… “What the blank is different about you?!” Eyes: This fall, it’s all abou

Holy eye shadow. I wish I knew exactly how long that I anxiously waited for these babies to launch. When I finally got them in my hands, it was like Christmas morning. Times ten. I can hear you now. “What?? Dolce and Gabbana has a makeup line??!?” Yes. And it’s BEAUtiful. Rich, bold pigments…creamy luxurious lipsticks…packaging fit for a queen and a long-wear brow liner that you’ll want to slap your mama for. (What? Idk.) The Perfect Mono is Dolce&Gabbana’s new eye cream shad

Mascara, mascara, mascara. We all love it, we all need it, and we all want the best one. It can be tough to recommend mascara to others. Like our skin, our lashes are all so different. Some grow-in straight, some grow-in curled. Some are super thin, and some are very thick. You tracking with me?? What mascara works best for me, my lashes and what I want out of them, are NOT always best for you!! Lashes can vary SO much from person to person....trying out a few different types
