NYX Color Correcting Concealer Palette – A Review
I love the NYX Color Correcting Concealer palette. The NYX palette colors are creamy, they blend out with ease, and work well at concealing what they are supposed to conceal. I normally use the e.l.f Flawless Finish foundation, which is a medium coverage foundation, and the color correcting concealers blend very well. 
I’ve been using color correcting concealers for a long time, and this palette is my favorite. I picked it up at Target for $12.00. There are cheaper palettes out there that do the same darned thing, but I’m a little picky with the brands I allow to go under my eyes, so I styx with nyx. See what I did there?
I do have the It Cosmetics Bye Bye Undereye, but that does NOT work for me. It’s wet and thick and creases and looks like poo poo. Also, it’s mega expensive. Another also, I have wrinkles under my eyes and CANNOT set my concealer with powder. I was told that Bye Bye Undereye does not need to be set with a powder and that is a Bye Bye Undereye LIE. It’s very tacky feeling on my skin. If it works for you, yay.
The color correcting colors I use the most are the green, peachy/pinky/salmony, and yellow colors.
The green covers any redness. I use this on zits and the lame red dry skin patches scattered across my face.
I use a little of the peachy/pinky/salmony to combat the blue/purple bags under my eyes.
The yellow works to hide the shadow of my undereye bags. I just lightly trace a line along the bags under my eyes.
Once my face looks like a rainbow, I blend in all the concealer colors with my foundation, and apply the rest of my makeup.
If you wear makeup, you should own a color correcting palette, unless you have flawless skin, and if you do, you suck.
Soap and Glory Hand Food and The Righteous Butter – A Review
Soap and Glory Hand Food (and The Righteous Butter)
I have been using these for over a month now and I love them.
I bought a travel size Hand Food from Ulta and loved it so much after a few uses that I went back and bought two regular sized tubes. I also just recently bought the The Righteous Butter. If you suffer from dry skin like I do, even eczema, this stuff is AMAZING. And it smells so good!
I wash my hands a zillion times a day and I need a lotion that can keep my hands moisturized like I don’t wash them a zillion times a day. Hand Food does exactly that.
From the Ulta website: A non-greasy hand cream with shea butter, macadamia oil, and marshmallow. Scented with our Original Pink Rose & Bergamot fragrance, combining fresh bergamot, mandarin, rose, jasmine, peach, strawberry, and soft musk & amber base notes for skin that is blissfully clean and silky-soft.
Moving on to The Righteous Butter. This stuff is also TO DIE FOR. I use this daily all over my body after my shower. My skin is so darned soft and it leaves my skin smelling yummy. I can stick my head down my shirt right now and I can still smell it on my skin from applying it almost 12 hours ago. The Righteous Butter makes my legs so soft. I can apply it in the morning, and until I shower the next day, my legs are soft and smooth. With other lotions, I have to constantly reapply to keep my legs from looking flaky.
GET IT.
You can find it online, and at Ulta, select Walgreens, and Targets. It’s a bit pricey for lotion; Hand Food is $8 for a full sized tube (the travel size is $4) and the The Righteous Butter is $15 (travel size is also $4), but those medicated lotions and other body lotions that promise soft skin at half the price are crap.
Invest in your skin, yo.
