• 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…

If you want to know the 5 affordable makeup products I absolutely adore, keep on reading! Lets start with my favourite drugstore concealer of all time.

  • How to Get The Glow: My Favourite Glowy Products

    Spring is officially here in Halifax (it’s 11 degrees today!!) and summer is approaching quickly. That means, it is about time to dig out your most glowy/JLO products to make you glow to the gods. When it comes to products to make your skin glow, I am a bit high maintenance and use a few products to achieve my desired glow. Today I’ll be talking all about my favourite glowy makeup products to achieve my best JLO self. When it comes to foundation/concealer/setting powder, I’m not going to mention any specific product. I just don’t mess with anything too mattifying. Not to mention my skin is super dry but I…

  • 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. I went to Miami and the Bahamas and both trips were absolutely amazing. If you want to see what I do on my trips, be sure to follow me on instagram. I post a lot on my stories when I’m on vacation. I’m also getting more and more into glowy products. I’m going to do a blog post soon on my go-to glow products but until then I’m going to include some glow in my favourites today. Not only do I have…

  • June Beauty Favourites

    Finally summer is upon us in Halifax. We’ve had a good week of nice ish weather and I feel like summer is finally here. So, I’ve busted out all of my coral makeup items and I’ve been loving it. I don’t feel like its summer yet until I wear coral on my eyes, my cheeks, and my lips. Is that crazy of me?  So today I’ll be talking about a couple beauty products I have been loving this past month! I love a good face mist and what it adds to my skincare routine. I use a face mist instead of a toner because I find I can get more…

  • Summer Beauty Essentials

    I know Summer is basically half over for us Canadians and I’m super late on this but today I thought I’d talk about my essential beauty products for Summer. I feel like Nova Scotia has been having a really nice summer. It’s been as humid as always but I love summer so much. Sitting on a patio with good food and drink in my hand is everything to me.  I really wanted to make this post because beauty products change from season to season. At least for me they change. I change the colours of blush, eyeshadow, bronzers, basically everything I wear in the summer. So I wanted to share…

  • June Beauty Empties

    This post feels so great to do. I haven’t done an empties post in such a long time and these products have been sitting in a bag ready to be tossed but I couldn’t/wouldn’t because I wanted to do this post for you guys! Empties are not only satisfying to post but it’s also so satisfying to throw out the products once you’re done taking pictures of them (bye Felicia). Some I love and some I’m happy to see gone!  Forewarning: This may be a long post.  If you don’t know what empties posts are, I basically go through products I’ve used up, give you a quick review, and let…

  • May Beauty Favourites

    May was an interesting month for me. It was the month of my sisters bridal shower that I planned, it was my birthday month, and it was the month I spent a week in bed sick with a terrible cold. For the entire week I was sick I didn’t wear makeup. It did great things for my skin but when I finally got to put makeup on again on my birthday, I felt amazing.  Isn’t it amazing that putting on makeup can instantly make you feel better and put you in a better mood? It’s on of the reasons I got into makeup. I love feeling great about myself and…

  • Pixi Beauty H2O Skintint | Review

    Unfortunately, when Target left Canada a few brands left us including Pixi Beauty. So sad. That is, until now! The other day I was doing my usually browse around the drugstore and came across a Pixi Beauty display in Shoppers Drug Mart. I was so excited! So of course I couldn’t wait to pick up a few things and try them out. One of the items I picked up was this H2O Skin Tint. I was looking at the display, saw this, and thought it would be perfect for me to wear to work. I was talking about this with the sales associate, she showed me a swatch, and I…
