New Physicians Formula Products – The Butter Range
I was perusing my local Shoppers Drug Mart the other day looking for new makeup products and I found a whole bunch of new Physicians Formula products added to their Butter range. Physicians Formula is one of those brands I don’t think gets the hype it deserves. I don’t know why. Maybe the packaging? Maybe the price? I decided to grab 3 products from their butter range that I have never tried but caught my attention. If you want to know what I think about them, keep on reading! If you don’t know, the Physicians Formula Butter Bronzer is completely iconic. The scent is like warm coconut, the formula is,…

Favourite Drugstore Makeup
Luxury makeup is nice and everything but there is nothing like the rush of finding an amazing makeup product at an affordable price. Knowing you can create an expensive look with drugstore products is one of the best feelings. Wow, this is making me feel like I need to get out more. I get asked all the time, what my favourite products at the drugstore are so I thought I would round them up and talk about all my fav drugstore makeup products. One of the products I really don’t think needs to be high end to be effective is mascara. My favourite mascara is the Maybelline Lash Sensational in…

My Hair History
I’m the type of person who loves to switch up my hair colour. I’m sure sometimes I frustrate/excite my hairstylist sometimes but she seems to be up for whatever I have in my head. I always feel like a completely new and refreshed person when I switch up my hair colour. It is one of those things that can really boost my self confidence. Today I’ll be going through a bit of my hair history. I can’t go through all of it because I have had every colour under the sun from black to blonde to red and everything in between. I do have to preface this post by saying…

Fresh Lotus Youth Preserve Dream Night Cream
Skincare is bae. If you disagree with me, you should probably leave. I’m joking (I’m not). But, I can turn you into someone who doesn’t really care about skincare into a fanatic. I’m absolutely obsessed with trying new skincare to try and find my number 1. I had gone into Sephora convinced I wanted a certain new night cream. I explained my wants and my skin type to the sales associate and she wanted me to try the Fresh Lotus Youth Preserve Dream Night Cream. She put the cream on my skin and I knew I had to have it. This is a lightweight, whipped cream that helps detoxify and…

March Beauty Favourites
With missing my February beauty favourites, this is kind of a combination of two months. Within those two months I went away twice and both to sunny destinations.

Urban Decay Naked Reloaded Eyeshadow Palette
I don’t know about other people but when I heard the original Urban Decay Naked Palette was being discontinued, I was a little hurt. The Urban Decay Naked Palette was the first high end eyeshadow palette I ever had. My sister bought this for me for my birthday in 2011. I couldn’t have been more excited because I had spent the last 9 months watching YouTube videos. But, I got excited when Urban Decay announced they were releasing a “Reloaded” version of the original Naked Palette. So, of course, when it released I had to get it because it looked like my neutral eyeshadow heaven. First off, let’s talk logistics.…
