I have a straight up Make Up Addiction. My friends call me ‘Make Up Mary’. I scroll through Feel Unique daily, frequent Sephora’s all over the world + own far too much of it all. I’m into budget friendly (drugstore) and luxury brands. Holiday Palettes + Wispy Lashes are my weakness! I also post seasonal Hair transitions + document my Manicures (usually Monday!)

I was impressed with the formula and staying power, then she told me they were only $6! Only catch is they’re only sold through their website and I didn’t have time to place an…
After discovering an obsession with Charcoal Cleansers, which I spoke about in my recent Spring skincare transition post. I’ve been dying to try the Luminizing Charcoal Peel Off Mask from Masque Bar. I found Masque Bar on the same aisle in Boots as the Hylamide serums (which I mention here.) Amongst the mid range skincare items from more niche brands. I’m really into their Green Tea Sheet Masks.
