Why I Will No Longer Buy From Too Faced


Isn't it awful when your go-to beauty brand lets you down, to the point where you no longer want to buy from them?

200k Beauty Giveaway!


I can hardly express how truly proud I am that Dainty Alice has hit 200,000 all-time page views!

Too Faced Peaches & Cream Collection Sneak Peek

If you saw my excited tweets earlier, you'll know how absolutely buzzing I am for the release of Too Faced's new Peaches & Cream makeup collection. The "comfortably matte" collection itself has been teased on Jerrod Blandino's Instagram since March, however the full details and prices of all the products has only been announced this past week, so I couldn't resist jumping on the hype train to write about them myself.
