There seems to be every possible option for lips in a drugstore. Thousands of shades, tons and tons of different brands and formulas…Matte, sheer, gloss, stains, HOW DO WE CHOSE?! I poked around, used 5 or 6 and wanted to highlight a few. Ultimately, I think we could probably pick 20 different options and review them front to back but we’ll focus on a small handful today! To clarify, I LOVE long-wears, I love matte lipsticks and I generally don't settle on a lipgloss alone. L

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

I say I’m obsessed with a lot of products…and I am. But this new Velvet lip-liner from NARS?!? I can’t. It’s too good. Allow me to introduce you to my favorite new lip product: It’s LONG-WEAR. Hello!! These babies go on, and they STAY on. Most liners help your lipstick from feathering or bleeding. Keyword: help. But the way this Velvet lip liner is made, it literally won’t bleed or feather, ever. So that fancy new fall-shade that you’ve picked up won’t end up moving around y

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

Let’s be real. Few things that the Kardashians do, surprise me anymore. And I’m not mad at them for that. When a new Kardash episode starts, I tune out the world, (mostly just my husband, dog and iPhone,) and tune-in to see my celeb besties for our weekly meeting. I love ‘em. All. Even Bruce. And his hair. And then...right when I thought that they couldn’t surprise me…my pop-culture and makeup worlds collided when I heard that Kim wore a drugstore lipstick when she met Yeezus

I had SO much fun at Meg Border's Senior Model shoot this year!! We thought maybe you wouldn't believe how fun it was. So....we wanted to show you. :) #models #makeup #lipstick #party #color

Boy-band of the Year: One Direction Baby of the Year: North West Celeb of the Year: J Law 2014 has been good to us and we're only a quarter of the way through it! It should be no surprise that there's a "pick" of the year in any and every category possible. The same goes for color! This year, the Pantone Color of the Year is: Drumroll please...... RADIANT ORCHID!! I'm such a sucker. I've been digging on this color for the last few months with absolutely no knowledge of it bei

What you need to know right up front: 1. I love the look of lipstick; Dark, light or in-between. 2. I like looking alive. 3. I HATE having to maintain a strong lip-color when I commit to one. Now that we're clear...you'll understand why these babies SPEAK MY LANGUAGE. These Revlon Colorburst Balmstains and Matte Balms are UHmazing. Not only do they pack great pigment, but since they're a stain, they last! No seriously. They LAST. I never thought that a big, fat, twist-up cray

Happy Valentine's Day everyone!! Cheers to the couples, the singles, and all the mushy stuff. But let's get real...SPECIAL cheers to those Reeses PB cups in the shape of hearts. They just GET me. In honor of Vday...I wanted to give you a quick and easy way to use a couple of drugstore picks to not only play the part today, but to stay RIGHT on trend for Spring. This season, it's ALLLL about pink. And I'm diggin' it. Light, bright eyes, paired with a super pink cheek and a cut

Stop what you're doing. Scrolling? Stop. Eating? Hurry it up. Driving? Pull-over. Or better yet...drive to a drugstore right now. If you've got $2 and some change, you can pick up one of my favorite long wear lipsticks of all time. Never in my WILDEST dreams would I guess that Wet N Wild would produce a lip color that I'd love SO much. Never. Let me give it to you straight: You apply this, you wear it, and it STAYS. All freaking day. With a matte finish, I fully expected to h
