As a beauty blogger and a beauty consumer, I do tend to keep my eye out for the latest releases. But I’ll always have something of a soft spot for the biggest foundations of yesteryear. Foundations like Nars Sheer Glow and the Estee Lauder Double Wear are ones that will be forever etched into my…

Emmie Reviews – Charlotte Tilbury Beautiful Skin Foundation
Last year, I reviewed the Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Finish Foundation. A foundation that I genuinely loved but lamented at the time that I couldn’t wear it every day. And at that time, I did hope that Charlotte Tilbury would release a foundation that was a bit more day to day friendly. Well, I guess…
Emmie Reviews – Maybelline Colossal Curl Bounce Mascara
If you’ve been following me since the start of this little dog and pony show, you will know that I have a soft spot for Maybelline mascaras. The Temptation mascara was one of my earliest reviews and I have since reviewed nearly every single new mascara they have launched since then. So, naturally, when the…
Emmie Reviews – Nars Cosmetics Light Reflecting Foundation
I think we can all agree that 2022 so far has been the year of foundations. It seems like every week, a different brand is bringing out a new foundation. Which I’ll admit is great for the blog. But it’s not so good for my wallet or my review pile. Yeah, I do have something…
Emmie Reviews – Nars Cosmetics Climax Extreme Mascara
One of my favourite series that I do here on Emmie’s Beauty Life is my One Brand Recommendations (weird start, I know, but go with it). And for a while now, I’ve been working on one for Nars Cosmetics. Seeing as they are one of my favourite brands, I figured it would be easy. It…
Emmie Reviews – Cult Beauty The Female Founders Edit: USA Edition
Last year, to celebrate International Women’s Day, UK beauty retailer Cult Beauty released a limited edition edit collection that celebrated women owned beauty brands from all over the world. This was a massive success for them and it sold out super quickly (yes, I did pick it up). And I was hoping that they would…
Emmie Reviews – NYX Cosmetics Can’t Stop Won’t Stop Foundation
Well, this review only took three months! Yep, I am finally back on the foundation reviewing grind. And seeing as I had predominately covered higher end foundations last year, I wanted to get around to reviewing some of the more popular picks from the drugstore. I did an ask around on IG ages ago and…
Emmie Reviews – Essence 24Ever Defined Volume Mascara
It’s been more than a minute since I last did a mascara review here. Truth be told, I can’t even remember the last time a mascara launch truly excited me enough to rush out and get it. Then I remembered that the kind folks over at Essence sent me a bunch of goodies a little…
Emmie Reviews – The 2022 Beautylish Lucky Bag
Y’all, I think we can all agree that 2022 so far has been something of a mixed bag. But for me personally, I had one thing that I was looking forward to more than anything else. And on Monday, that thing arrived. Everyone, I welcome you to my 2022 Beautylish Lucky Bag unboxing! For those…
Emmie Review – Covergirl Last Blast Clean Volume Mascara
What? You thought you were going to have to wait until later in the month for a mascara review? Not a chance! I basically spent my entire break finally getting around to trying out the latest iteration of the Covergirl Lash Blast Family. The Lash Blast Clean Volume Mascara! I have heard a ton of…
