In The Event Of A Zombie Apocalypse, Be Sure To Buy This Perfume

If World War Z’s insertion into my highly detailed and potentially prophetic dreams is any indication, there will be a zombie apocalypse in the near future. In it, Zach Galifianakis and I will fall in love, we will be stuck in a supermarket for a great deal of the situation and my ability to drift cars away from close calls will be innate. But most importantly: I will smell delightful and will help the entire town smell delightful. More »

Makeup Inspired By: Your Worst Nineties Makeup Nightmares (NSFLife)

Last week, we brought you the fun, grungy, hot makeup of the early nineties. Today, we are bringing something much, much worse to the table: multiple ugly trends from the 90s.

I love wearing red lipstick out, but I have always been somewhat cautious of doing so when out with somebody. You know, romantically. Red lipstick on a first date feels weird. More »
