The best part about it is that it’s a test you’re…

It was a stupid debate because a couple inches between a woman’s thighs does not indicate how healthy or unhealthy she is. She could have it and run marathons. She could also not have it and also run marathons. And yet, there may be…

Last year, I did a makeup tutorial showing off my love for deep, dark makeup from the 1940s and 1950s because, no matter what year it is, we’re all a little nostalgic for a decade past.
