I am always on the hunt for something that will address my skin issues: hyperpigmentation, pores/acne, texture and anti-aging.

Product Review: Neutrogena Hydro Boost Hydrating Lip Shine
I switched out my purse and found this gloss that I had stashed in a side pocket. I was in a messy bun on one of my few low-key days looking like I rolled out of bed. I was feeling particularly dehydrated and thought "why not" so I decided to be a bit extra on [...]
