Those Kardashian sisters are certainly entrepreneurial. I’ll give ’em that.
Here’s a gloss from their new Khroma Beauty makeup line, available now at Ulta and CVS.




Not bad for $9. Have you tried anything from the line?

In the event you were worried that there weren’t enough puzzles out there for cat ladies, I assure you, there are. 🙂
Tabs would like you to please note the abundance of striped tabby cats in these pictures.








Of course, my favorite is the marmalade disco ball party cat…
Hello, he’s wearing a jaunty cap!

Just some shower products I’ve been using and loving lately…

Dove’s Go Fresh Restore Body Wash in Blue Fig & Orange Blossom ($6) smells amaze-ering and lathers into a frothy bunch o’ bubbles. Totally wakes me up in the morning, too.
And when I shower at night, like after a workout, I’ve been using Jason Calming Lavender Pure Natural Body Wash ($7). It’s not as foamy as Dove’s Go Fresh, but the lavender fragrance totally chills me out and helps me wind down for the night.

I like that Aveeno Positively Smooth Shave Gel ($4.29) rinses clean and doesn’t get my razor all goopy. And they recently changed the packaging so that it no longer leaves a rust ring if you leave it in your shower, hooray!

On days when I conditioner wash, I like Gud’s Red Ruby Groovy Conditioner ($7). It doesn’t weigh my hair down, and the scent smells like grapefruit gummies, om nom nom…

I also keep a tube of Neutrogena’s All-in-1 Daily Scrub ($7) in my shower and use it on my chin, which is my numero uno breakout zone. The scrub contains salicylic acid, which my skin responds well to. I’m on my second tube of this stuff because I love it that much.

Got any drugstore shower product recs for me? What have you been using and loving lately?

Girrrl, you know I love me some accessories. 🙂 And these limited edition $36 MAC Illustrated makeup bags look like works of art.
The black and white line drawings are the work of illustrator Anja Kroencke, and the colorful bags are by graffiti artist Indie 184.





I really like the Anja Kroencke one with the wavy hair and tears (not gonna lie, I kinda look like that sometimes!).
You can find all four bags exclusively at North American MAC stores for $36 each.

Chanel’s got a gorgeous new collection out called Les Delices de Chanel, with colors Coco characterizes as spring-inspired.
The release includes eight limited edition pieces for cheeks, lips and eyes in soft neutrals, pinks, aquas and violets.
I’m SUPER STOKED about the two new Aqualumieres!
I was heartbroken when Chanel discontinued the line, and I’m still kicking myself for not buying backups of Candy Glow.







The collection is available now. Reviews and looks lined up and coming soon.

Sheer, shimmery pink Nassau has a lot in common with another beauty from Cargo, Bourbon St. Non-sticky, smells like blackberries, and it lasts from 3-4 hours.
I think it looks super pretty with smokey eyes.

Cargo’s Lip Glosses are supposed to last six hours, but I usually get from 3-4.


What do you think of Cargo’s Lip Glosses?
