Sugar Rush Bright Makeup tutorial
Hi Guys & Dolls!
Todays tutorial is one of my go-to bright eyeshadow looks, so if it looks familiar, it is. Sugarpill recently came out with the Heart Breaker palette and it’s just the perfect palette for those of us who love these colors! It was an instant fave for me, and I had to honor it by doing this tutorial for you! Continue reading
New Blog Policy Re: Animal Testing
Hi Guys & Dolls,
Many of you already know about the recent changes to a few cosmetic company’s animal testing policies and/or their cruelty free status. I’m thoroughly upset about this turn of events, and if you haven’t already, I ask that you read this blog post.
This has put me in a difficult position as a Beauty Vlogger & Makeup Artist, and has caused a slight change in my blog policy, regarding what companies I will use in tutorials, review, etc…
I will continue to primarily support legitimate cruelty free cosmetic companies; The only exception will be companies who are required to test by law. This doesn’t mean I’m going on a wild spree of non-cruelty free brands. When I do a review I will add a simple statement about the companies testing policies and make sure to mention where a product is manufactured if information is available. I will add this information where I normally have the breakdown of price and things of that nature.
Examples:
“Milani is Cruelty Free and Made in the USA”
“MAC is owned by Estee Lauder who claims to be cruelty free except in counties where animal testing is required by law; This product was made in Canada”
“Wet ‘n’ Wild is Cruelty-Free; Product Made in China”
Hopefully that clears things up, thank you for reading!

Cosmetic Companies, Animal Testing, and China: My Thoughts
Hey Guys and Dolls,
I have to say first off I avoided writing this blogpost because it was such a snarled mess of crap in my head, and it’s taken me a while to work though. I’ve tried separating my emotions from the equation but found that I can rationalize either side with logic, so essentially this boils down to how I feel. My opinions on this still a bit tangle-y and I’m sure this post will be rather informal and ramble-y, so just bear with me. Consider yourself warned- this post is LOOONG!
This blog post has been edited from it’s original version to clear up some confusion.
