Fall makeup is officially upon us folks. Warm eyes, less bronzer, darker lips. Even if you wear the same eye look, you can change up your lip colour and automatically have a fall makeup look.

Covergirl Simply Ageless Foundation – Best Drugstore Foundation?
Has anyone else seen the Covergirl Simply Ageless foundation floating around the drugstore for years and always been curious about it? Covergirl as a brand isn’t actually one that speaks to me. I’m more of a Maybelline, Essence, ELF girl. But this foundation was actually on clearance at my Shoppers Drug Mart and they just happened to have a shade I thought would match me. The Covergirl Simply Ageless Powder in translucent is my holy grail for setting underneath my eyes. So I picked it up to test it out. Today I’ll be doing a full review on the Covergirl Simply Ageless Foundation. This foundation actually became more popular in…

Transitioning Your Makeup From Summer to Fall
The crisp air, the smell of people lighting fires in their homes, and the changing leaves. Thats what some people love about fall. What I love about fall is not sweating every time I leave the house, leggings being a completely viable outfit option, and changing my makeup to darker colours.

When it comes to fall, some switches in your makeup collection are easy to do to change up your makeup from summer to fall. And obviously, if you love wearing summery makeup all year long, do you boo. These are just suggestions! In the…

The Brow Wax War – Patrick Ta vs. ABH vs. Makeup Revolution
Does anyone else dread doing their eyebrows? Mine never turn out looking the same. They usually aren’t even sisters but distant cousins. The trend of really intense eyebrows always stressed me out because I could never get mine to look that good. But, this year, a whole new eyebrow trend came out. The laminated/feathery brow. Hallelujah. This trend is barely filled in brows that look feathery and undone. You would think this trend would use hardly any products. Well, you’d be wrong. Lot’s of brands have come out with brand new brow waxes and gels that make your brows look super wispy and stay like that all day. Today, I’ll…

Ardell Water-Activated Aqua Lashes
Ardell recently released the worlds first water-activated strip eyelashes. False eyelashes are something that I actually get a lot of questions about. What lashes work best? What lashes are the best for your eye shape? How do I apply false eyelashes? Is there anything that can make the application of false eyelashes easier? Well, I’m hoping these Water Activated Lashes help with a lot of those concerns. I was walking by an Ardell display and literally stopped in my tracks and grabbed a pair. Let’s start with the basics of false eyelashes. Normal false eyelashes you apply glue to the lash band, wait for the glue to get tacky, apply…

I am constantly on the hunt for amazing drugstore products. I am also always looking for better and better products. I went to my local Shoppers Drug Mart early the other morning to go makeup hunting and came across these brand new Essence Cosmetics 6 pan eyeshadow palettes. The look of the palettes initially caught my eye and then I saw the price and immediately grabbed 3 of the palettes! The three palettes I bought are the Coral Me Maybe, Dancing Green, and Bronzed this way. I tested them out completely with swatches and doing an eye look with each palette. These palettes are centred around “songs that you love”…

Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Hyaluronic Clay Pore-Tight Facial Mask
Not only am I a huge fan of Glow Recipe but I am a huge fan of face masks. When Glow Recipe came out with the Watermelon Glow Hyaluronic Clay mask, I knew I had to try it and review it for you guys. It has so many words in the title I love. Watermelon? Yes. Glow? Yup. Hyaluronic? Yes please. Pore-Tight? Oh yeah. So I skipped my booty to my local Sephora and picked it up! This mask is a clay mask with hyaluronic-infused clay, BHA, PHA, and watermelon enzymes. It is meant to be non-drying, clear pores, smooth, and hydrate. According to the Sephora website, this mask is…

My Favourite Skin Tints/Tinted Moisturizers for Dry Skin
I have been an absolute sucker for the natural makeup looks. I have worn full coverage foundations for the last 10 years! Not only does natural makeup take less time but I think it makes me look younger. I have picked up a few more natural looking skin tints over the last few months so I thought I would chat about them a little bit. I have 3 natural skin tints/tinted moisturizers that I wanted to review today. I have the Morphe 2 Hint Hint Skin Tint, the Fenty Beauty Eaze Drop Blurring Skin Tint, and the Urban Decay Hydromaniac Glowy Tinted Hydrator Foundation. The Morphe 2 Hint Hint Skin…

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,…
