Textured and Trying

  Hi! Spring is here! I have more energy for writing and creating and talking. This month I added an additional box of products onto my Allure Beauty Box. Just for funsies. A little treat.  So I’m not an activist or like, someone who cares much to know the race of the person I’m buying from? If that makes sense? I don’t know, I was just raised that someone’s race isn’t important. Like, not like you can’t be proud of your heritage, just like, your race doesn’t have anything really to do with anything. Am I the only one raised like that? It really feels like it sometimes.  That being said, I think it’s cool to get a bunch of products together from one group of people and be like hey, our community did something cool, we’re proud of it, check it out. So I ordered the Spotlight on Black Owned Beauty Box for a couple reasons. The price, $49.99 was excellent for the number of products, I think there were nine. Some were deluxe but for the most part these were full si...

  Is it possible that March reviews will post in the month of March ? There’s no way. Welcome back! Having such a creative end of winter, so adventurous with new products, so many changes happening in my life, and it’s getting warmer and sunnier every day. I’m starting this post on the first day of spring, and hoping to spend this business trip I’m on getting these posts written and edited and up. I’m staying in a cheap motel about an hour and a half from home and on the border of the next state, because my work week is focused on training at this other store. I’m going to be a certified operator. Hopefully that means a raise and some more authority in my workplace. Anyway! Time to talk about the Allure Beauty box I received for March, and also the Spotlight on Black Owned Beauty that I purchased alongside it. The base box I was not happy with. I’m sorry, it just didn’t do much for me. It was full of deluxe sizes and the ones that were full-sized were disappointing mostly. I ...

  Hii again! Time to talk about the February Allure Beauty Box that I got! I’ve already started receiving my March things, so it’s time to get this written and posted before I start diving into all that. This month’s box only had six items, not seven - I thought they always had seven, but I even found the product list and it clearly shows six products not seven. I’ll have to do more research. I swear I even took an Allure Beauty Quiz and it was like, what’s your favorite thing about the beauty box? And one of the answers was seven curated items or something like that. So I thought the seven was a given.     [Edit - it was a me misunderstanding thing I guess. The adverts online say 6+ items, so it's six or more. Good to know! Six is still a lot 😋 ] Anyway, this box was pretty good and I’ve had a lot of time to try the stuff out. I’ll start off with the item I was able to choose - this month it was the brand Beauty Bakerie , which I am actually super familiar wit...
