Tested: 100% Pure Sugar Plummed (Truffle Lip Caramel, Moonstone Gemmed Lip Gloss, Kiss Nail Polish, Midsummer Nights Dream Nail Polish)


If you've followed my content for a while, you'll know that I love my neutrals.  Neutrals are my comfort zone and I have a hard time letting them go to reach the borders of color.  Given that Valentine's is just around the corner, I thought it'd be a good idea to really push that color fear to the side.  My decision was made when 100% Pure came out with their new liquid lipsticks (Lip Caramels) and Gemmed Lip Glosses.  Although I'm not a fan of brights or too much glitter, I decided to go ahead and test out the Sugar Plummed gift set from 100% Pure since it was such a great deal and it contained the exact colors I wanted in both the Lip Caramel and Gemmed Lip Gloss.  The Lip Caramels were marketed to have a great formula and the Gemmed Lip Glosses contain different gemstones in them (with each being named after one of the gemstones). Let's just say I should step out of my boundaries a bit more often.

Current Curated Collection: 5YINA Seasons PM Routine


I've been talking about 5yina's oils along with my other skin favorites but I've never elaborated on how I merge them into a fluid PM routine.  This is what I'll be getting into in this post.  I've already written reviews on most of these products (and for those I haven't, they are still in the testing process).  Without further ado, this is my PM routine.

Tested: 100% Pure Herbal Detox Mask


I love a good detox especially because of all of the dirt and grime I'm exposed to when I am downtown.  I was keen to try the new masks released by 100 Percent Pure so I managed to find a store where I could sample both the detox and aqua masks.  As you can see, the detox mask was the clear winner for me and I've found that this has been one of my favorite detox masks to date!  It's effective, it smells great, and, let's be honest, it's absolute fun to walk around the house scaring others with your green faced self!  Read on to see why I reach for this mask as my go-to detox method!

Comparison: 100% Pure Fruit Pigmented Mascara (Black Tea) VS Maracuja Mascara (Black Tea)


The Lengthening mascara from 100% pure has always been my stand-out favorite ever since I started testing all natural mascaras.  It's no surprise, then, that I was over the moon when they announced their new Maracuja formulation to add to their mascara lineup.  I was able to snag this up during the 100% Pure Friends & Family and have been testing it against it's older sibling! Before we continue, I'll just say that I love both of the formulations but do have a personal preference.  Read on, wide-eyed viewer!

Initial Impressions: 100% Pure Mattifying Primer w/ Vitamins &Antioxidants


I've been in an almost exclusive relationship with 100% Pure lately!  I'm attributing it to their recent friends & family sale(which I gladly participated in) and their heavy hitter releases.  Before I start, I really feel the need to post out that I've never been a primer kind of girl.  I tried Benefit's Porefessional years ago and have shuddered in fear of all primers ever since the great Breakout Wars of 2013.  I've related primers to a feeling of suffocation on the skin ever since that time.  I did, however, decide to take a chance and test out the new mattifying primer from 100% Pure ever since I read rave reviews on it from happy customers who posted their hauls on Instagram.  I'm truly, truly glad I did because it has upped my makeup game immensely especially in the heat of the summer.
