Beata Noelle LaforestPublished 3 years ago in BlushHoly Grail Green Eyeshadow Palettes
Jeffree Star Cosmetics "Blood Money" palette is a green eyeshadow lover's dream come true. Not only does it come in a vegan leather alligator print case, it has fancy metal hardware on it. With a slide of a button, the palette opens up to reveal 16 green inspired shades. There are a variety of finishes and countless looks you can get with this palette. The collection is money-themed but the shades give me green goddess vibes. The shades have a forest or woodland feel to me despite their names. I found these shades to be very inspiring and I was able to create many different looks using only this color story. The packaging is luxe and well made. It's also gorgeous to look at and would look cute displayed on a vanity. The quality and pigmentation of the shades was amazing. I was impressed by the quality of this eyeshadow palette. I find myself reaching for this palette often if I am in a green mood. This palette was $52 which is pricey. The quality and case make it worth it in my opinion. I would recommend the Blood Money eyeshadow palette by Jeffree Star if you want to spoil yourself and are a fan of green color stories.
Amanda ZylstraPublished 3 years ago in BlushHonest Review of Pony O
I have long thick hair and wear it in a ponytail many times during warm weather to keep it off my shoulders. Perhaps it was Facebook marketing that got me on this one and made me interested in trying this product. Ads for the Pony O popped up everywhere for me on a daily basis for weeks, until I finally gave in and decided to give this product a try. I usually ignore marking ads but in this case, it was a product I could see myself using if it actually worked. It's hit or miss with many highly marketed products, but I know some actual work and are a good idea. I liked the idea of a ponytail with more style and volume that were shown in the photos of girls using the Pony O. I wanted something a little different than the standard ponytail I was used to getting using hair elastics but I was also looking for something that would also hold my hair in place and be good for summer months when the weather is hot. I wanted something I could wear while going for walks or being outside in warm weather. I figured why not try this thing. Reviews I read for the Pony O online were good for the most part and the high ponytails that were achieved while using the Pony O were cute.

SMP SolutionPublished 3 years ago in BlushThe 25 Harshest Ingredients in Skin Care Products
The Big Brands The cosmetic industry fills their products with preservatives, silicones, parabens, sulfates, alcohols, irritants and fragrance causing skin issues. They'll slap, "organic, vegan, cruelty free or dermatologist recommended" on the packaging to convince you it's good for you but have you looked at the ingredients? Those big brand names like Revlon, Maybelline, Clinique, Shiseido, Estee Lauder, L'Oreal and Neutrogena are the worst. They shove alcohol and parabens in products. I always say Less is more. This means that you want products with less ingredients but higher quality ingredients. You want to look for products that are not big brand names and also have, maybe, three rows of ingredients. Quality over quantity.
Product Review: St. Ives Facial Scrub
As a woman I think beauty standards and looking your best, even during a pandemic, are important to a lot of us. Fashion magazines, online advertisements, and social media platforms, set the standards by which a lot of women, and likely some men, use in order to make the most informed decisions about beauty. Whether we are staying in or going out, we all want to look and feel our best and it starts with our daily routines and everyone's daily routines will be slightly different. Wake up, brush your teeth, wash your face, take a shower (unless you shower at night), get dressed, make your breakfast, feed the cat or walk the dog, and so on throughout the day. At night, if you wear make up, be sure to remove it, wash your face, brush your teeth, floss, put on lotion and/or moisturizer, brush your hair, and shower if you don't shower in the morning.

Angel DiptiPublished 3 years ago in BlushWhy I went Natural
I started getting chemical relaxers when I was a small child. My mother would relax my hair a few times a year. Once I became a teenager, I learned how to apply the "creamy crack" on my own. I was so used to it by this time. I would retouch the roots every 6 weeks to 2 months. Yes, it was excessive but this was all I knew about hair. I considered my hair still natural because I didn't wear a weave most of the time. I tried extension braids a couple of times as well as ponytail weaves. I even tried drawstring wigs when I was a young adult. But the majority of my life, I wore my real hair but in a permanent straight look.

Lucifer RalfPublished 3 years ago in BlushReview Senka Perfect Whip
At first glance, my current face condition tends to be oily (oily skin), dull, slightly structured, and dehydrated. But strangely, on my oily face, pimples rarely appear, mostly just pimples on the forehead area that start to appear when my skin indicates rejecting a product. So to minimize dull and stubborn oil in the face area, I started to take the initiative to replace facial soap.
