Top 5: Dark Lipsticks for Fall

Hello again,

As you probably know, I've been meaning to write about my Favourite Fall Lipsticks for some time now. I have been holding off on writing this post because I keep finding new lipsticks that I think would be perfect for the fall season, but of course I have to try them first!

Small Beauty Haul: Essentials & A New Foundation!

Hello! 

I know I've been posting hauls galore over here, but I've been meaning to post this one for a while now...I recently went to Shopper's Drug Mart because I wanted to redeem my Optimum points on some essential products that I needed, and splurged on a new foundation that I've been wanting to try! If you don't know about the Optimum points program, it is a free-to-join points card program available at Shopper's Drug Mart that rewards you with 10 points for every dollar spent. I always try to take advantage of their points events (like 20x the points) to ensure that the program it actually worth it. Anyways, I had the highest level of points available for redemption (95,000 points which equalled $170.00 off) so I decided to pick up items that I needed to repurchase, but didn't necessarily want to spend the money on. I piked up a few other random things for my boyfriend, but this is all I managed to grab for $170! 

Haul (L-R): Estée Lauder Double Wear Foundation, Philosophy Purity Cleanser, Guerlain Liquid Eyeliner, Macadamia Deep Repair Masque, L'Oréal Voluminous Full Definition Mascara

Massive Buffalo Beauty Haul!

Hello Gorgeous!

If you can't already tell from the title of this post, I went to Buffalo! I usually try to cross the border every year around this time (Canadian Thanksgiving)  because of all the amazing deals happening on Columbus Day in the States! We usually try to stay at least 48 hours in order to fulfill the $800 personal exemption limit that we are allowed. However, due to scheduling, we decided to stay for only 1 night (which allows us an exemption of $200 for 24 hours FYI). 

Because we were only going to be staying 1 night, I made a list of all of the places that were worth going to (Outlets, Walden Galleria, U.S. Drugstores), but I was most excited about going to ULTA considering we don't have one here in Canada. For those of you who don't know, ULTA is an awesome beauty store that sells both drugstore and high-end beauty products (Sort of like a Shopper's Drug Mart meets Sephora, but a million times better IMO) 

If you're interested in seeing what I picked up, as well as the crazy/unfair price comparisons between Canada and the U.S.A, then keep reading! 

Haul: Anastasia Beverly Hills Lavish Palette

Hello again! 

I hope everyone is enjoying their weekend! I am super excited because I booked the weekend off from work and I am planning a quick overnight stay in Buffalo, NY with the family. I will most likely be purchasing a few beaut products there, so expect to see a haul from that! I love travelling to the States every so often because I get a chance to check out all of the beauty products that I can't get in Canada, along with the cheaper prices that accompany them. I probably should have waited to pick up this palette, as it is significantly cheaper in the States, but the makeup hoarder in me just couldn't wait!

Anastasia Beverly Hills Lavish Palette ($49.00 CDN)

Anyways, I had to run into Sephora the other day to purchase a new Anastasia Brow Wiz ($30.00 CDN) because I ran out of my last one, and I saw this gorgeous palette on display. The Anastasia Beverly Hills Lavish Palette is an all-in-one kit for brows and eyes, and retails for $49.00 CDN. I had been wanting to check it out for the past few weeks now, as I've been stalking the Anastasia section of Sephora ever since I saw this palette being featured by makeup artists on Instagram! The shadows looked so pigmented, creamy, and well, lavish! This was a palette that I didn't want to pass up! 

If you're interested in reading about this palette and all of it's awesome features, then keep reading! 

September 2013 Favourites

Hi!!

I know I am a little late on this post, but better late than never right? I am so excited to be writing about my monthly favourites for the month of September! Monthly favourite videos are some of the best videos to watch on Youtube, because bloggers always talk about the coolest products! I love making wishlists of all the new products people are raving about to remind myself to check them out in stores. 

September 2013 Favourites

I have found myself switching up the products in my makeup routine lately, so thought that I should talk about them. I have been using a mix of both drugstore and high-end products this month, so there should be something for everyone in this post!
