When Good Makeup Goes Bad | Makeup Expiration Dates

February 26, 2025 by Greta Brinkley 3 Comments

Women with makeup spread out all over

One of the things I have always loved is makeup and cosmetics.   I mean, I rarely see a nail polish that I don’t seriously consider purchasing, even if just for a brief moment or a palette that I don’t want to at least look at for a moment. Did you know that cosmetics have a shelf life?  Unfortunately, it's true.  Every type of beauty product has a makeup expiration ...

Tarte Rainforest After Dark Palette Review & Swatches

July 29, 2014 by Greta Brinkley 16 Comments

Lately, I’ve been noticing a trend in makeup palettes. This trend is that there are more all in one palettes hitting the market. These generally have a few eye shadow shades, a blush or two, and maybe a highlighter and/or bronzers. These can be great, if the colors are right for you. Of course, if the blush isn’t quite right, these all in one palettes can feel like a let down. As someone ...

Almay Shadow Softies: Worth It?

March 12, 2014 by Greta Brinkley 4 Comments

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.  These happened to be the new line of Shadow Softies.  There were vibrant, beautiful single colors in really modern packaging.  I’m a sucker for packaging.  I kept looking and looking, trying to decide on a couple colors to try. ...

Yves Rocher Retropical for a Retro Tropical Summer

July 9, 2013 by Greta Brinkley 20 Comments

Yves Rocher Retropical Collection

Retropical samples were provided for editorial purposes.  All opinions are my own. I am a huge fan of retro and vintage stuff.  Retro design, old style makeup & cosmetics, vintage clothing, it’s all good!  I mean, my first set of grown up furniture was a complete set of Mid Century Modern Teak furniture.  I also love vivid colors.  I always tell people I’m not afraid of color, and it’s sooo ...
