An Unscientific Method

The Hypothesis One night after having a particularly exasperating conversation with Jess about a particularly awful experience with a ‘pro’ behind a cosmetics counter, we put in motion a devious plan.  Disguised as make up ‘novices’ we planned to test just how much these pros know about not only the products they sell, but about […]

Tokidoki Cosmetics – A Review

I love Toki Doki.  I have for a very long time so when the cosmetics line launched at Sephora earlier this year I was so excited to try it out.  I was ready to be disappointed, though, knowing that there was a very good chance it was all packaging and no real cosmetic value. Mischief […]

Kat Von D from Sephora

Although the Kat Von D line from Sephora has been out for a while now, a couple of new things were released recently that I was instantly interested in.  The over all branding of the line is very well thought out and designed, it’s very rock/punk/goth with a distinctive and feminine feel.  Over the past […]

Tarina Revisited

After my last review of Tarina Tarantino’s products I’m sure you’ll all recall how my local Sephora invited me to come in for a private little ‘consultation’ featuring the products and how I was still less then impressed. Recently a couple of new products from Tarina Tarantino Cosmetics have been released and on a return […]

Tarina Tarantino Follow Up

After getting a chance to go over the TT display at my local Sephora, I’m going to have to say that my initial observations stand. The colors of the Eye Dream Hypershadow’s SEEM nice and bright, but when swatched are pretty dull and soft.  The shadow consistency wise is soft, I mean it’s not a […]
