Summer Beauty with Almay

: : : press sample / / affiliate links : : :

Summer days are trying to peek through, and I'm sure once they're here I'll regret saying that I'm actually ready for warmer days. Until the sun is officially here (it's still grey, overcast and just a bit rainy...) I'll be adding a few Almay products into my routine to get the summer vibes flowing.

I don't know how I've felt about blogging lately, perhaps a bit stagnant, but something that always works to perk me up (so to speak) is something new. A new product, or in the case today, a new (at least to me) subscription box. The team at Nourish Beauty Box reached out on Instagram, and I just had to see what they had to offer. I mean, who doesn't like a little box of surprise beauty goodies every now and then?

Lola's Secret Beauty Blog doesn’t ordinarily wax poetic about matte lipsticks, but Urban Decay Vice Lipstick Mega Matte in Oblivion is the most gorgeous, flattering and complex mauve-taupe. It is non-drying, comfortable to wear, and it has a faint sheen that gives it a little dimension that prevents it from being flat or dull. It’s a definite must-have if you love mauve lipsticks.
