What it is: Make Up For Ever Rock For Ever Eye Shadow Palette
Why this should be in your bag
I feel like it’s been ages since I’ve reviewed a palette! Even though they are super cute and convenient, it’s hard to find one where I would use every single shade.
In Our Makeup Bag: NYX Single Eyeshadow
Eyeshadow is the perfect way to highlight a gorgeous set of peepers or just enhance your look. It instantly steps-up your makeup and gives you a little bit more “oomph”! I find wearers of eyeshadow are usually split into two categories: ones who stick to neutrals and ones who love colors.

In Our Makeup Bag: Shobha Sugaring Kit
Smooth skin is an essential part of looking your best. Most women that I know shave unwanted hair, but that can be really annoying.
