It’s easy to get fully consumed by…

US Online Beauty: Kylie Cosmetics, Colourpop + Morphe

Following my post about Sephora and US drugstore musts, I wanted to mention a couple of brands that are only available online…What’s worth getting delivered before you visit and a way around US domestic only shipping. Kylie Cosmetics. Oh Kylie, you set up a little Shopify website selling your liquid lipsticks made in the same factory as Colourpop for $17. They even come in identical shades. Naturally the world went…
