That Brunette Beauty Girl

Although it’s on the pricey side, it is 10 grams. So you’ll have it for forever. The cooling formula does take a bit of getting used to and it reminds me a little of Vicks VapoRub Ointment.

My sister was easily one of the most beautiful women I’ve ever encountered in my life and I’m not just saying that because she’s fa...

by Stephanie McCarthy Unretouched photo of me wearing Manasi 7’s All Over Colour in Duras on my  eyes,  Vapour  Beauty’s Aura Multi-Stick in Dare on my cheeks,  and RMS   Beauty’s  Lip2Cheek in Illusive on my lips. Integrity Botanicals and The Detox Market have become my go-to stores to buy and try clean beauty samples from high-end brands. Manasi 7 is a brand that I love and became familiar with in April on Integrity Botanicals’ website. I saw samples of their All Over Colour that can be used on the eyes, cheeks, and lips and immediately bought a few colors to try. The color Duras is a cool purple pink brown. While it looks great on the cheeks, I think it looks best on the eyelids. It has a pleasant vanilla scent.
