Hello! I’m Erica, a blogger and writer based outside of NYC. I discovered my love of cosmetics in 2011 when I started watching tutorials on YouTube. It was a revelation to me that with just a simple few wiggles of mascara and dabs of blush, you could transform yourself!

After graduating from business school in 2018, I decided to share my passion for all things beauty with the world. This is where my blog, We are glamerus, was born. I share my musings every week on topics ranging from holy grail products, in-depth reviews, quick tips on application, to the latest trends overtaking the beauty world. I hope you enjoy, and join our growing community! XO

It’s been a while, but here’s today #motd incl It’s been a while, but here’s today #motd including a new item to my collection, the @urbandecaycosmetics Naked Reloaded Palette. Received it for my birthday this past week so I’ve only just started to play, but UD doesn’t disappoint with shadows; they were some of the first I ever fell in love with, alongside @maccosmetics. There’s really only one pop of color in Reloaded, so overall it’s a very neutral palette. I *may* do a full review for the blog, but I’m not sure. I find it so hard to do deep-dive reviews on eyeshadow palettes because there’s so much to say and so many factors to take into account. So, we’ll see. (I WILL be reviewing the @lorealusa Air Volume Mascara, also pictured here, in a blog post soon!)

Today I’m taking you on a tour of my glossy high Today I’m taking you on a tour of my glossy highlighter edit. These are the three products I reach for when I want that boost of radiance and the look of gloss on the skin, featuring bits from @theorganicskinco, @flowerbeauty and @glossier. Full blog post is now live (link in bio), or go to my Stories for the narrowed-down details. What kind of highlighters do you like??

I finally purchased @glossier Futuredew before Chr I finally purchased @glossier Futuredew before Christmas and it’s fast become my new dearest love ❤️. Super hydrating, super glossy, it’s the perfect primer for someone like me who has terribly dry skin. I like to apply one full pump right before I do my makeup, and this formula really beams through my light coverage based. Swipe left to see the finish on the back of my hand 💦. Check out my blog post for more detailed info and opinions (link in bio)! Have you tried Futuredew??

I’ve been diligently testing out the new @flower I’ve been diligently testing out the new @flowerbeauty Get Real Serum Foundation for the past two months, and I’m happy to say it’s my new go-to everyday foundation. Super lightweight & liquid in texture, radiant in finish, and buildable in coverage (light-to-medium I’d say). Oh, and it’s pretty affordable too - just $15.00. If you’re looking for something that’s similar-ish to the more luxury ILIA Super Serum Skin Tint, you may want to check this one out, although it’s not as luxurious-feeling or intensely nourishing as the ILIA formula. I wrote a whole review that’s live on the blog now so go to the link in my bio for more!

I’ve lost my favorite shooting space to our Chri I’ve lost my favorite shooting space to our Christmas tree so I’ll be working from my photo archive until New Year’s (not that I post much on here lately). This was taken very soon after I purchased the True Velvet Lipstick in Velvet Muse from the queen herself @lisaeldridgemakeup. I haven’t busted it out in a while since I haven’t been wearing lipstick at all in the past few months, but it’s still one of my faves. So lovingly and meticulously crafted, and so beautiful in tone. It’s in stock on her website right now, so I suggest hopping over there to experience something really special this holiday season 🎄.
