In a complete departure from what you're used to seeing here, today I'd like to talk about a hot dude named Chris. You may also know him as Andy Dwyer, lead singer of Mouserat. https://youtu.be/NqZMcvd0yjo I'm having some feelings about this today. You might have heard of this Chris. He's been in some big budget... Continue Reading →
New additions to the Nars Orgasm collection
Oh, Nars. This could also be called "Unpopular opinion" because I really don't like this brand. I worked for Sephora for a hot minute when Nars was getting really big, and hearing about Francois Nars skeeved me out a little bit. I don't know if it's because he's French or what, but listening to him... Continue Reading →
Feminism and the beauty community
We can't talk about feminism without giving a nod to our foremothers; Susan B. Anthony, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Ida B. Wells, and the hundreds of other women who devoted their lives to making the world a better place for women, children and minorities. Susan B. Anthony spent her adulthood in the city where I currently... Continue Reading →
Unpopular opinion: I don’t really like Thanksgiving
So, I'm American. If you've read enough of my posts you've likely picked up on that. I like being American, despite our... problematic?... national history. It's precisely because of this problematic history that I'm not a huge fan of Thanksgiving, and feel it necessary to call out the centuries of nonsense surrounding this holiday. First...

Unpopular opinion: I’m not really into social media
I know that's a weird thing to say, given that you're technically reading this on a social media site, but I'm speaking more in terms of sites like Snapchat and Pinterest. Is Pinterest still a thing? I honestly don't even know. I guess part of the reason I'm not into some of this stuff is... Continue Reading →
Unpopular opinion: I have no interest in LipSense
It's Halloween, my favorite holiday, and I'm about to scare you with another unpopular opinion; to my friends who sell Lipsense, I'm really sorry. I'm hella proud of all of you for building successful businesses, especially with a brand that seems to value empowering women, but this is one product I don't think I can get... Continue Reading →
Unpopular opinion: I don’t like dudes in the beauty industry
This might be my first really unpopular opinion, but hear me out. I am not opposed to dudes wearing, enjoying, purchasing or discussing makeup. I actually think it's kind of great, and I'm encouraged by other countries who are more accepting of it and have cosmetics lines geared specifically for men, like Japan and Korea. What I...

Unpopular opinion: I have no interest in Fenty Beauty
I'm pretty sure this is like beauty sacrilege. I like Rihanna. She seems like a cool, confident feminist who doesn't let insane media attention and millions of haters get her down. I don't listen to her music because I have the musical tastes of a 60-year-old dude (#classicrock4life), but I'm open to the possibility of... Continue Reading →
So, I’ve been thinking…
I have a lot of opinions, as you've surely noticed by now. Some of them are funny, others are well reasoned and flexible, and some are unpopular. What kind of unpopular opinions, you ask? Well, I'm thinking about starting a new series in which I tell you all about them, consequences be damned. I think... Continue Reading →
Teresa's Big O(pinion)
