Hiatus!

Hi everyone, I won't be posting for a good couple of weeks, because I am going to London and Paris for Thanksgiving (and then some)! I'm very excited, and hope to maybe pick up some fun things while I'm there to share with you when I return. I wish you all a very Happy Thanksgiving! xoxo

Kat Von D "Adora" Eyeshadow Palette

Photobucket

When I first heard Kat Von D was coming out with a line of makeup, I scoffed a little, expecting it to be just another excuse for a celebrity to make a bit of cash on a generic makeup line. However, lately I've opened the KVD door and been exploring her products a little more, and truth be told, I'm pretty impressed. I loved the look of the "Adora" palette, so I snatched it up immediately. Keep reading for pics and my thoughts!

Review: Eyeko Nail Polishes

Photobucket

I have been dying to try Eyeko products for a while now, so you cannot believe my excitement when I received an email with a 30% off offer from eyeko.com! Because they are a London-based company, it is usually costly to order internationally. However, with 30%, it made it worthwhile to try some products that I've heard a lot about. Did they live up to my expectations? Keep reading!
