Follow me at www.beauddiction.com

Last week, I let you guys know that the name of my blog was changing to Beauddiction, and it still is...that hasn't changed. But I ran into a hiccup with my domain names and hosting.

My original plan was to just change the web address of this blog and keep all of my old content in the same place but the way things are set up, I'm not able to do that...so basically I have to start a brand new blog.

On the one hand, it really stinks because it's like starting from scratch with search engine rankings and traffic numbers...things like that. But on the other hand, starting from scratch can be a really good thing!

I have a brand new site and I'm loving the clean, crisp new design. It also allows me to add more features than I had on this blog and I will be adding them in the following weeks.

I plan to keep this one out there so you can reference all of my old posts if you need to (and I'll still be linking to them from the new blog as well).

So to all of my loyal readers...I hope that you'll follow me over on Beauddiction.com. I will be posting the same regular content and nothing will change except the site design and the name. :) **Please note that for the moment my comments are working on the new blog, but you have to scroll down to the bottom of the post to see them (there's no comment count at the top). I'm working to try and get them up and running ASAP.**

Love you guys!! Thanks so much for understanding and being so supportive. You're the best!

Friday Faves!

Every Friday going forward, I'd like to start doing a "Friday Faves" post, highlighting the products I've been reaching for a lot over the past week. These products might be ones I've talked about already here on the blog or they might be something I haven't posted a review on yet. I end up trying and reviewing so many different products, I thought it might be fun to share the products I'm personally using this week.

Let's take a look!

City Color Hypnotic Palette Review & Swatches

Spring is around the corner and we're starting to see lots of colorful palettes showing up in stores and online like the Urban Decay Full Spectrum, Kat Von D Pastel Goth, and the City Color Hypnotic Palette ($15.99 at CityColorCosmetics.com).
While I'm not a fan of creating bright, bold eye looks on myself per se, I've seen lots of gals I follow on Instagram rocking absolutely stunning colorful looks. So I wanted to grab this palette and swatch it for you guys, as it could be an affordable alternative to some of the palettes I mentioned earlier.

10 New Skincare Products I Want to Try in 2017

It's a new year and like a lot of people, I feel like a new year means a fresh start. As a self-proclaimed skincare junkie I always get excited when I see new products being released, and January seems to be the time when all the new stuff launches. Granted, there are certain products in my bathroom right now that I love and have used for years, but I'm always curious to try new products. Science is always advancing and the newer formulas can take your skin to an even better place than the older formulas do.

I've been adding products to my mental shopping cart the past couple of weeks and I wanted to share  the ones I'm most excited to try in 2017. Let's take a look!

Emjoi eRase e60 Epilator Review

Today I'm writing about a topic I rarely speak about here on the blog...hair removal! That's because I've stopped shaving and waxing my legs. Haha, it's not what you think! I'm not going au natural or anything like that. I've actually discovered a new product that's as easy as using an electric razor and as long-lasting as waxing...the Emjoi eRase e60 Epilator ($59.95). 

You may be familiar with Emjoi (I've blogged about their foot smoothing devices here on the blog in the past) and I was so excited to find out that they make epilators too! I don't know why, but I never hear about this method of hair removal...and it's totally underrated. Everyone I know either shaves or waxes, both of which have their own unique drawbacks.
