Caliray Tubing Mascara Review
I thought I would test out a new tubing mascara. I thought it was ok. Not as much oomph as I like. People have told me that it actually smudged on them, so maybe the tubing action is not great … Continue reading
Byredo Black Saffron Perfume Review
Byredo Black Saffron is a perfume for a stock broker. A bit of red berries in the opening keep it fun, and then the heart has that synthetic leather note that’s in Tom Ford Tuscan Leather, but the drydown is … Continue reading

This or That: Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry Touch or Clear Face
