I had never heard of Perfectly Posh before, but when I found consultant Kelsey on Instagram, I couldn't wait to try some of their products! The first thing I noticed about Perfectly Posh was the adorable packaging. I know you aren't supposed to judge a book by its cover, but…

I have noticed a TON of people online asking myself and others what the best cruelty-free and vegan mascara is. Everyone has such different opinions on mascara so it really depends on what kind of look you like and what your price point is. Some people like big spidery and glamorous…

OK, so I'm sure we've all heard of the beauty brand, Lush. I mean ... I'm sure I'm not the only person who has seen those cool videos on my Instagram Explore page of their amazing products (I have no life). Anyways, I've known of this brand for awhile now,…

I was so sad to say goodbye to my beloved Philosophy Purity Cleanser, but I knew I could find an awesome alternative that didn't involve animal testing.

Alex Bertolini

If there's one thing we can applaud Parisian women for, it is definitely their effortless sense of style and natural, fresh-faced beauty. These days, I maintain a more simple beauty routine compared to previous years, and focus more on perfecting my skincare regimen. French beauty in particular focuses more on not…

What Does Cruelty-Free Really Mean?

March 15, 2017March 16, 2017 by Ciara Sebecke

Ciara Sebecke

If you're a label reader like me, you may have noticed the words "cruelty-free," "not tested on animals" or a little bunny logo on some of your favorite makeup or self-care products. This is usually a good sign, but it can be misleading since the definition of "cruelty" is often…

Ciara Sebecke

It can be so frustrating searching for decent vegan and cruelty-free eyeshadow palettes! If one shade contains carmine or another animal derived ingredient, the whole palette is no longer vegan and 90% of the time it is impossible to buy the shades individually. Thankfully, switching to a cruelty-free lifestyle does…

Too Faced Born This Way Foundation Review

February 15, 2017February 16, 2017 by Ciara Sebecke

Ciara Sebecke

Too Faced's Born This Way Foundation has been one of my go-to's for the past year or so. I love the foundation because it has a super light and natural finish, but has medium coverage that can easily be built up. After purchasing my second bottle, I can safely say…

I’ll admit that I’m not the best when it comes to makeup. One of the best life lessons I’ve ever learned is that a little mascara goes a long way, and there’s no need to overdo it. Because I’m pretty clueless about the art of makeup, I usually go for…
