Ugh, can I just say how freaking excited I am that everyone and their mama is making colorful, bright, rainbow and neon palettes?! Let tarte take care of those 50 shades of beige bitches, and let’s let the rest of us play in the spectrum! There are so many brands that have been putting out rainbow palettes, and now we’re starting to see those rainbows get amped up with some neon voltage. I’m here for it, but neon shadows can be tricky: in order to make shadows that bright, they use white pigment to brighten, but white is...

It’s been a long time since I’ve done a Makeup Thunderdome post, but when I saw that there were two great indie brands who were both putting out palettes with a burger theme, I knew I had to get them both and compare them. You’re probably thinking, “OMG – two more burger palettes? Haven’t we had enough?!” No, these are the two OG burger palettes that people have been talking about. As usual, Miss Jaye is late to the party, and with some recent things happening at work, it took me quite a while to...

read moreBlush Crush, Featuring Ofra And Lime Crime
I always feel a little weird reviewing blushes. It’s not like I don’t have favorites, and some diehard must haves that have found their way into my kit. I love to layer blushes with my contour, and it’s a rare showday where I don’t have at least 5 different blushes mixed together on my mug. But blush isn’t…fun. It’s not like an eyeshadow palette, with bright colors and shimmers and velvety mattes. If blush is doing its job, it should be seamless, melting into the overall look in a way that is...

Alright, Champagne Dreamers – let’s talk. Miss Jaye has been going to Days of the Dead, in Indianapolis and a couple of other cities, since 2016. One of the highlights of her trip is always the pro photo ops – and we hope you love them too! With Atlanta 2019, the convention changed photographers which led to a different background and different look to the photos (they have more lights on and the color balance is a little bit off) as well as increased prices. Now, with Indy there was a new twist: photo ops no longer come...

read moreNeon Love: Huda Beauty’s Newest Obsessions
The world has gone crazy for neon, and I’m living for it! I’m a child of the 80s, where Lisa Frank’s neon acid trip illustrations were the hottest thing every school shopping season, girls just wanted to have fun in day-glo fabrics, and the world had this artificial brightness that only neon can create. I adore it! Huda Beauty recently added three new palettes to their Obsessions line of 9-pan mini palettes: the Neon Obsessions in Pink, Green, and Orange. They retail for $29, $2 more than the previous Obsessions palettes...
