Better Off Red: Getting Ready For Singles Day With Ruby Treasures From Trixie Cosmetics & BH Cosmetics!

Better Off Red: Getting Ready For Singles Day With Ruby Treasures From Trixie Cosmetics & BH Cosmetics!

Hello Champagne Dreamers, and welcome to February, the most hateful month of the year – ironically, because on the surface everyone is obsessed with love! I hate Valentines Day.  Always have, always will.  Ok, so maybe not always: I did kinda like elementary school when we made fancy valentines boxes and gave each other candy.  That was cool.  And it’s presence does lead to a more important holiday: National Half Price Chocolate Day, recognized as February 15 with celebrations often lasting several days!  But in general, I’m...

Time To Get Sinful: Lucky Bunny Cosmetics Fills Me With Greed & Envy!

Time To Get Sinful: Lucky Bunny Cosmetics Fills Me With Greed & Envy!

I don’t know about you, but after being cooped up almost all of last year, I’m ready to get a little sinful! Luckily, I found a new indie brand, Lucky Bunny Cosmetics from Australia, that is ready to help me do just that!  Lucky Bunny has a series of palettes named after the seven deadly sins.  In addition to the two I ordered, Greed & Envy, they also currently have Wrath and Gluttony.  At only about $27 each (depending on exchange – they are $34.95 AUD), I’m hoping that they finish off the series! Nikki Raven, a...

Face Friday: Miss Jaye Is Getting “Cupid Ready Early With This Candy Hearts Inspired Look!

Hello Champagne Dreamers, and welcome to another fabulous Face Friday!  Even though I low key HATE Valentines Day, I do actually love some of the iconic imagery that surrounds it.  I love that makeup companies have started releasing more romantic pinky-purple collections to celebrate the holiday, and I wanted to create some fun looks that would work for the holiday whether you are cuddling up with a significant other (or others), or crushing the hearts of your enemies beneath your boots! One of my favorite things from Valentines Day is the...

Trick Or Treat: Photo Set By Photos By Breeze, Fall 2020

Hello there Champagne Dreamers!  I’m super excited to bring you the very first photo gallery of 2021, and also the first of my “gender bent horror icons” series: Trick Or Treat!  I shot this in Fall 2020 with Photos By Breeze, and she did a great job of capturing the fun, playful, and creepy atmosphere I wanted! For this series, each series is going to take an icon from horror and reinterpret it through my own weird, queer perspective!  For Michael Myers, I wanted to go with just a simple black sweater dress, some metallic...

Portion Control: Glamlite Serves Up Tasty Mini Versions Of Their Popular Food Palettes

It’s almost the end of January, so a lot of the resolutions to get fit and look hot (or whatevah) are falling by the wayside.  But in the world of food-themed makeup, Glamlite is here to give you just a taste with their mini food palettes!  If you loved their Burger and Cake palettes, you’ll definitely love their Pie, Donut, and Burger Slider palettes for a smaller, more curated cosmetic treat! For the haters: yes, these are MORE food-themed palettes from Glamlite, and yes, they have packaging that is puffy and round and...

If I Could Turn Back Time: Riding The Latest Nostalgia Wave With Morphe X Lisa Frank

We live in a world that loves remakes, reboots, and recycled properties.  Movies are being remade and reinterpreted, rebooted in new formats, and the toy aisle is filled with all of the same properties that I remember as a kid in the 80s: GI Joe, Transformers, He-Man, Ghostbusters, Care Bears, Strawberry Shortcakes, etc.  I love seeing these relics from my childhood come back around again (and for some, this isn’t their first time being reimagined!) and I love to see how they’ve been reinterpreted for a new generation: are they...

Face Friday: Getting The Blueprint For Birthday Beauty Glam, Feat. Melt Cosmetics

Hey there Champagne Dreamers – we’re back after a week’s vacay with another Face Friday, and I’m super excited for the palette I’m using in this look: the Blueprint palette from Melt Cosmetics!  My friend Amy and I got together on my birthday and had a makeup play day, and this is the look that I came up with: I had been eyeing the Blueprint stack for a while, but I missed the first released when it came in the blue plastic packaging, and I wasn’t as keen on the black; I’m glad that I waited, because...

Miss Jaye Brings It Back To The Classics With Her First Tag Video Of 2021

Now that all of the year end wrap-up and predictions are done, it’s time to get back to the classics: this week, Miss Jaye is serving you another tag video, and this one is a golden oldie! This is one of the tags that has been in Miss Jaye’s notes since the very beginning, and you can tell: she was inspired by Nerdy Girl Makeup, who hasn’t posted a video in almost two years, and the creator of the tag, Jordan Harris, has revamped their content several times and has now taken a step back from social media and content...

Everybody’s Workin’ For The Weekend: BH Cosmetics Serves Up A Beauty Brunch!

Everybody’s Workin’ For The Weekend: BH Cosmetics Serves Up A Beauty Brunch!

BH Cosmetics is really starting to change things up, and I’m here for it! After the mini Zodiac palettes, which were a bit of a mess (did anyone actually buy one of those? on purpose?!), BH Cosmetics had a pretty strong showing in their eyeshadow palettes for 2020.  The Sweet Shoppe palettes were a huge hit, sold out, and were immediately promoted to the top of everyone’s FOMO lists, prompting a surprise restock in December.  The Halloween collection was decidedly lackluster (if you missed it, you can read my review of that HERE),...
