d.j.v. beautenizer’s Fiberwig LX Mascara

Have you heard of d.j.v. beautenizer’s Fiberwig LX mascara? Apparently it’s the hot mascara pick at Sephora. What sets it apart is its glossy rich formula that coats the lashes like a film and creates a shiny black vinyl effect. I haven’t tried it but I might just trot over to Sephora this weekend to see if they have it there, you know how I fee… Read More…

Bye Bye Summer, Hello Bronzer; Too Faced Aqua Bunny

It’s not just the white stripe down her nose, it’s the overall mis-match of foundation all over her face that do not blend or do what (I think) her artist intended.

Makeup aside, Minaj is collaborating with OPI on a limited edition collection featuring 6 bold shades available in January. Which you can read more about HERE.
