Hitting Pan with Revlon Nearly Naked Powder



For the first time I've hit pan. I'm pretty happy because this is one of my go to, never fail, never leave the house (only when I'm wearing makeup) products. I have crazy oily skin that gets oily by just walking outdoors. So to keep my face matte all day long I have my trusty powder. It was my mom who actually got me into powders, and it has stuck with me ever since. The fact that the powder is tinted means on lazy days I don't even put on tinted moisturizer or foundation on my skin.
I guess it will be time to get  new one but until then i'll use this sucker until there's nothing left.
Have you ever hit pan on any product before? if so what was it?
Thanks for reading :)

Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer in Caramel


I've been eyeballing this concealer for a while now since the very first concealer I got was  great but it was exactly my skin tone which I could have used it like a foundation  . . . sorta.
I've seen many beauty gurus use this none more that Nicole Guerriero and I liked the outcome, plus i really like Nars and I have been using their tinted moisturizer for years now. 
It gives great cover from light to full coverage, product will last a long time and it has an applicator like a lip glass from Mac. 
Overall really happy with my purchase.
Thanks for reading :)

Just Like Tumblr

I've been very bored lately and I have no ideas on what to post on this blog, so I decided to have fun with my photo apps on my phone and try to recreate this pic I saw on Tumblr. 
I think the pic is better if you have light coloured eyes therefore you can see the depth of colour in the iris but I wasn't born with those lucky genes so my dark brown eyes will have to do.
Thanks for reading!

Smoldering Blues Eye Makeup Look

Autumn the best time of the year for funky and colourful makeup, today I have this look I call my smokey blues or smoldering blues. I thought why not take the classic smokey eye and jazz it up a bit.
This is one of my favorite smokey eye looks, using my favorite colour cobalt blue. This is a pigment by Annabelle which i got for Christmas , its an incredible colour especially when you use it was some mixing medium which i learnt how to make homemade online. I loved the way this turned out and I got quite a bit of compliments from my friends. It's a fun and flirty way to spice up your look for a night out.I paired it with nude lips and a sock bum for a classy elegant look. And there you have it.
 Thanks for reading, for more follow my blog!




That's all folks!

Winged Eyeliner

Since I've went out and bought Maybelline 24 hour lasting drama gel eyeliner, it has been a breeze to do my winged eyeliner. I like it a lot better than liquid eyeliner because I personally find it easier. It's literally like drawing on your face (eg. canvas). This is how I do my everyday winged liner. I don't like my eyeliner to be too thick on me but this shape enhances my almond shaped eyes and like many beauty blog state almond eyes are one of the easiest to do looks on. The brush is the best part about this purchase. I thought the brush would be too thick but it turns out to be amazing for gel liner with its thin tip you can make gentle strokes to get your desired liner. I purchased this eyeliner at Shoppers Drug Mart for $12. I'm pretty sure Walmart might be cheaper.

Tokidoki Arte Palette Featuring Sandy in the City and Lion Pappa


This is the Tokidoki arte palettes this is my very first set of makeup from them. These were a great steal at sephora at only $6!! 
I know what an amazing price i couldnt pass it up. 
At first i was upset because i was hoping the colours in the palettes werent the same. They follow the same pattern and using this palette alone you can create a day and night look easily, each comes with 4 different eye shadows and a blush. 
For a great price and how compact they are it was a great deal and there very cute. The art is really colourful  and the signature of Tokidoki.

Burt's Bees Hibiscus lip balm review

I really was looking for a great hydrating lip balm for the winter but one that would also give my lips a pink flush. And i found this at my local Shopper's Drug Mart. Its Burt Bee's Tinted Lip Balm in the colour Hibiscus. At first i thought this colour might be a little too red but it was a beautiful shade that suits me. It was $ 5.99, and i thought the packaging was really creative, the end shows the colour your getting and the outside has the ingredients they use which is all natural products.

Urban Decay : NAKED palette!!


I love urban decay makeup my first time i ever bought makeup was from sephora in New York and it was the urban decay shadow box. I love it but that was a year and a half ago. I love the rich colour and the vibrancy of the pigment. Ever since it has been my favorite brand of makeup for there out of the box and colourful eyeshadows.

NOW the newest urban decay palette is out and selling online now, its the urban decay NAKED palette which has wonderfull warm neutral colours for the fall that will make any eye pop!

I dont know about you but i really want this palette and i suggest if you do too, you better get your's soon or it will be sold out in no time. For $ 44 and 12 different shades it's worth the money just for the amount of shadow that you will be getting, have fun trying this out!
