TOK; Take Two
It’s been a bit since my last blog about TOK Beauty, the Canadian born brand with a penchant for beautiful handmade silk lashes. Not only is this line revolutionary being the first line to create silk magnetic lashes, I was able to get more insight from the creator, Tara, herself! Since my last post, the…

Meet Sappho New Paradigm
I have tried a LOT of different cosmetics brands, all with their own pros and cons. It is incredibly rare for me to find a brand that I love every single product, but Sappho New Paradigm has won that slot. I’ll be completely honest, when I first applied a full face of Sappho, I don’t…

Suntegrity
I’m finally changing my daily habits by incorporating sunscreen – and not just when it’s sunny. I partially avoided it in the past because I felt like I needed the vitamin D and also because it was another step in my routine. Not to mention, most sunscreens are made with chemical barriers like oxybenzone which…

Limitless Lash: Ilia
