I am sittin' here like a big kid watching Beauty & The Beast, and got this urge to rock my snuggie and sit at my desk and write up this review for you lovely people. I wanted to show you all four of the Urban Decay Big Fatty colored mascaras ($17 each). I ordered these from Hautelook the last time they had an Urban Decay sale, and they were around $4/each, so...not a bad deal, right? Well...

I won't focus on the fact I received my package of Rock & Republic eyeshadows nearly a week late, but instead focus on how happy I am to finally have them. I haven't been this excited about a cosmetic brand for a long time, but Rock & Republic has made some awesome makeup. It's really a shame that they're discontinuing everything, but...I'm happy I was able to try out as many products as possible before they are gone forever.

Happy Sunday, guys! Hope your weekend has been going great so far, as we wind down and get ready to start another week. Today I wanted to review a mascara that I've been using for about two weeks now. It's the L'Oreal Voluminous Million Lashes mascara in "blackest-black", and I did purchase it quite a while ago but haven't gotten around to using it until recently. This mascara promises to define, volumize and lengthen your lashes without clumps. Does it deliver? Check it out...

Oh, Rock & Republic...how I adore thee! There isn't anything from the line that I've tried so far, and haven't loved or really liked. So far, it's a very solid cosmetic brand giving you your money's worth (and not many brands can deliver that). At first glance, all of the items are very pricey...but when you dig a little deeper and realize the great quality, packaging and overall awesomeness you're getting -- the prices are more than worth it. Just about every R&R product I've purchased has been from sort of sale. I recently picked up 12 of their eyeshadows, which I'll admit I wasn't in a big hurry to buy, but I'm glad I did. They're incredible.

Hello, lovlies! As some of you may know, I'm giving the "natural hair" thing a shot. The last time I had a relaxer was just about a year ago, and I've been transitioning ever since. I've cut nearly all of my relaxed ends off, and I'm nursing my hair to complete and overall health. I've been doing a great job so far, and I don't think my hair has ever been as healthy as it is now. I've been taking all of your suggestions from my last post into consideration, trying some of the products mentioned and right now I want to review my hands-down favorite conditioner (so far) that I've been using on my natural hair journey -- Oyin Handmade HoneyHemp Conditioner!

I was watching QVC and saw the most adorable commemorative box of Philosophy's Limited Edition Hope in a Jar moisturizer -- a cult favorite (but screw the cult, I love this stuff whether they do or not). It was a big red textured, glittery box with the Oprah seal -- her baby picture imposed inside of her "O" logo, and a sweet little note from Philosophy to Oprah on the inside flap.
