Brush or Sponge for Foundation?
For as long as I have been into makeup I have gone back and forth on the best way to apply my foundation. For the first few years I only used a brush for my foundation. Then, for the last few years I have been strictly a sponge girl. I had never put them head to head before now! I decided to do half of my face with a brush and the other half with a sponge. I made sure to use a brush I know I like and a sponge I know I like. I also decided to use a bit of an oldie but a goodie foundation. For…

I’m on of those really strange people who loves to pack. It makes me even more excited to travel. If I could pack a week in advance, I would. But, my boyfriend probably wouldn’t like my suitcase on the floor of our bedroom for a week. So, when I got a new travel makeup bag for Christmas (shoutout to my friend Beth), I was so excited to pack my makeup for my next trip. I have gotten pretty decent at packing and I thought I would show you what are my go-to’s, how I pack, and my new fantastic makeup bag. I always pack products that I know are going…

Brows are everything. If you disagree, you have never filled in your eyebrows and looked at yourself in the mirror. Filling in your eyebrows completely changed the game for me.

If you want to know what I think of the new Maybelline Tattoo Studio Brow Gel, keep on reading! This is a waterproof brow gel that is meant to add definition and last for days. This fills in…

Beauty Empties January 2018
Another month, another bunch of products I have used up. I don’t know what is it but I have been using up products like nobodies business. I partially think it’s because I have nothing better to do in the winter than stay inside and play with makeup and skincare. If you don’t know what ‘empties’ posts are, I show you and talk about products that I’ve used up recently. I’ll give a quick review and then let you know if I’d repurchase it. The Good Let’s begin with my number one love which is Batiste Dry Shampoo. I’ve discovered the lotus scent is the absolutely best and I’ll always continue…

Maybelline Superstay 24HR Foundation | REVIEW
I’m not going to lie, I have never tried the old version of this foundation and had no idea they stopped making it. Anyways, I’m always down to try a new (and improved?) drugstore foundation. Since I never tried the original version of this foundation I have nothing to compare it to, other than the dozens of other foundations I have tried. I was super excited to try this out and hopefully find another drugstore foundation gem! Today, we’ll be talking all about a new full-coverage foundation from Maybelline. This, as taken from the Maybelline website is a full-coverage 24 hour wear foundation that won’t fade throughout the day. This…

2017 Makeup Favourites
Another year gone, another year with me spending WAY too much money on makeup. It has gotten to the point that no one wants to get me makeup for christmas because they just assume I have all the makeup. Which, I mean, is so untrue. So if anyone reading this ever wants to get me a gift, I will happily accept more makeup. With this being the start of 2018, a brand new year, I thought I would go through my makeup stash and round up all my favourite products from the last year. I’ll be sure to link any posts dedicated to individual products that I talk about. If…
