Have you ever bought an eyeshadow palette because you fell in love with certain shades but wished they were matte when they were shimmer? Or perhaps there was a couple shadows that were the perfect tones to work together, but would have had more impact if one was more metallic?…

Well, I don’t know about you guys, but I blinked and it was 2018. Of course, a few months back when I was VERY pregnant, I probably would have said that 2017 was the slowest year, ever. Unlike 2016, which was a straight up crap year for me, 2017 really…
The Kat Von D Holographic Palette has been on the market for a while now. Previous plans to post a review were foiled though when it promptly went out of stock at Sephora and then took MONTHS to return. I hate posting about products you all can’t actually buy; Dangling…
In a world of opaque, heavy, matte, lacquer-like lipsticks, Bobbi Brown has done what they always do: launched everyday, wearable makeup that people love and feel comfortable wearing. Never a brand for following trends, I’ve always known I can rely on Bobbi Brown to create wearable formulas and textures. The Crushed…
Well, lactation + cookies are two words I never thought I would write about here! After bringing our little lady home from the hospital post C Section, I started looking into how I could boost my milk supply to get her back up to her birth weight. Several mums had…
I recently wrote this post about Huda Beauty taking the beauty world by storm and launching a plethora of new products. After falling in love with the Mauve Obsessions Palette and Lip Contour Set, I knew I needed to try more. Conveniently, the brand has recently launched their #FauxFilter Foundation;…
The Anastasia Beverly Hills Glow Kits are easily a product I’ve slept on since launch. I finally bit the bullet and picked up the kit in Sundipped on sale here, and don’t regret a single thing. Initially, I thought I wouldn’t use all four shades, making it hard to splurge.…
There’s yet another addition to the Too Faced Peach family by way of the Just Peachy Mattes Palette and honestly, it had me asking myself, “Are we over this peach thing yet?”. The brand hit a home run in term of hype with their original Peach Palette (review here). The…
I know I know, I am on a roll with the giveaways, right? I love to be able to send all sorts of pretty new things to you all to say thanks for reading this time of year! Today’s giveaway is one of the fabulous MAC Personality Palettes in Rockin…
On November 30th at 42 weeks pregnant exactly, little miss Everly Jean graced us with her presence… finally. After 3 days of failed induction, contractions and back labour, the doctors finally decided it was time to put mama out of her misery and delivery her via C Section. If you’re…
As mentioned in my last giveaway post, I will be doing sporadic giveaways until the end of the year (just as I did last year). It’s my little way of saying thank you for reading and supporting this blogging endeavour of mine all year round! This time I am giving away…
I’ll admit it: I’ve been late to the game on Huda Beauty. The brand that started as lashes and moved to liquid lipstick just didn’t appeal to me at first; I don’t wear false lashes and you all know how I feel about matte lips! My interested definitely was peaked…
Every holiday season cosmetic brands drop beautiful shiny limited edition bombs on us left right and centre. It can be hard to narrow down what’s actually a great buy and what is just wrapped up in sparkly packaging for holiday hype. There are a few brands that I always pay…
The annual Sephora VIB Rouge sale was earlier this month and I might have gone a bit… wild. Since starting Girl Loves Gloss several years ago, I have been much more controlled when it comes to spending on beauty. With baby arriving any day (seriously – any day now kid!) I…
Tarte Cosmetics has finally come out with a third ‘Tartelette’ palette, and keeping with current trends, it’s full of warm neutral shadows. Aptly named Toasted*, I was instantly drawn to how balanced this looks compared to some warm toned palettes on the market right now. The real question though is,…
