I Tried Dermstore's BeautyFIX Subscription Box, and Here's What I Thought
Subscription boxes. They're everywhere, and they all promise to give you awesome products at a fraction of the price you'd pay for them a la carte. They have become one of the most popular ways to learn about new products, and as a makeup enthusiast, I've always been curious about them.
Sheera LeePublished 6 years ago in Blush 10 of My Favorite Drug Store Makeup
Sometimes it's hard being a “trendy” girl from clothes to makeup products, especially when all you really see are people spending big bucks on makeup mostly all name brand from the wonderful collections at Sephora, Mac to Dior and Chanel. Although these can be amazing brands, they can break the bank trying to obtain them. So, I decided to compile a list of drug store products that I feel work better or somewhat like big name brands without breaking the bank.

Kyrsta MorehousePublished 6 years ago in BlushIt's All About Them Brows
The eyebrow is the most important part of any makeup look. It frames and defines the eye as well as the face. Believe it or not the history of the eyebrow starts back in ancient times. It wasn’t until the 1920s when silent film star Clara Bow popularized the “over plucked” look that the use of tweezers on the face came into play. Ever since then, eyebrows changed with the decade and the use of beauty products on the market. However, the first pair of tweezers were not used for the use of tweezing hair from the face. They were originally used just to pick up little objects that the fingers could not. They can also be used for the use of crafts and hobbies such as stamp collecting. The shape and pointed edge made things much simpler. I know when I used to do crafts I used tweezers for the little things such as rhinestones, beads, and other little things.

Chelsea WinonaPublished 6 years ago in Blush10 Products That Will Give You a Facelift (Without Surgery)
Aging is something that everyone will eventually have to embrace, even if they don't want to. We all will get wrinkles, will get saggy, and at times, won't quite look as well-rested as we ought to. It happens, but science has become amazingly adept at delaying the effects of aging.
Sasha KonikovoPublished 6 years ago in Blush9 Ways the Simplehuman Sensor Pro Smart Mirror Can Instantly Improve Your Makeup Routine
Saying "makeup is an art" is far from a hot take. Some of us can spend hours to get that perfect look, and in the end, we're really proud of it! That is until you step out of your bathroom into the natural light or the cooler lighting in your office and suddenly, everything is off. Your blush no longer blends perfectly, you've got this weird splotch on your chin, and all that time you spent on your face now seems to be for naught.

Chelsea WinonaPublished 6 years ago in BlushLipSense Review
I’m not really a lipstick girl. I love the look of lipstick, but in reality I rub my lips together a lot, drink liquids often, and have very dry lips prone to cracking, which a lot of lipstick formulas aggravate. Yet, when a mom acquaintance touted the long lasting wear of LipSense by SeneGence that she’d started to sell, my interest piqued. I wanted to be supportive, keep my wineglasses and coffee cups pristine, and possibly become one of those females who always looked fresh.
