Recently, I had the opportunity to check out a few items from Merle Norman’s new Spring 2014 makeup line. We all know about Merle Norman and their quality products, but I have to admit – it had been a while since I’d tried anything from the line. For some reason, Merle Norman just never seems to be one of the brands that I seek out. ...
Almay Shadow Softies: Worth It?
Almay shadow softies were purchased with my own money. Recently, while running some errands, I happened upon this display of gorgeous eye shadows from Almay.
