The Best Eyeshadow Colors For Your Eye Color
Do you remember learning about the color wheel in school? Well, making your eye color pop goes back to that same color wheel. When you use contrasting hues it draws attention to your eyes and intensifies their color. You want to pick a color on the opposite side of the wheel of your eye color. […]
Do You Have Warm or Cool Undertones?
Wondering if you’re cool or warmed tone is a question that I get a lot, and that can affect what colors of makeup look best on you. Guess what – it’s so simple to tell! Surface (Ivory, light, medium tan, dark) and undertones are two different things. I can have the same skin color as […]
Smokey Eye

I Did Something I Said I’d Never Do, I Joined a MLM, But Hear Me Out…
Ok, so I did something I swore I’d never do, I signed up to be a Maskcara distributor. I know, I know, it’s a MLM, everyone hates MLM’s, it’s a pyramid scheme, etc. I get it, we all know someone who’s a distributor of something, and we’ve all had friendships turn awkward when suddenly it’s all […]
