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!

Saturday MOTD: Sick with a Red Lip

Hi!

I hope you're all enjoying your weekend! Unfortunately I got the flu so I've been sick in bed these past few days. I managed to pull myself together to bring my daughter to another birthday party for a family friend on Saturday. I tried uploading this post yesterday but I couldn't figure out how to upload photos from my phone (so simple yet so difficult)....

Here is my MOTD! 

 

Because I'm sick, I decided to throw on some red lipstick to make myself feel better! I don't wear red lips all that often because I really have to be in the mood for it. However, since the release of MAC's Retro Matte collection, I thought I should get some good use out of all the bold lipsticks I decided to hoard buy! (See what I bought from the collection here)

First Impression: Garnier Skin Renew Dark Spot Treatment Mask

Hello again!

I wanted to write a quick first impression post on the new Garnier Skin Renew Dark Spot Treatment Mask ($19.99 CDN for 6 masks), which beauty bloggers have been raving about since it was released a couple months back. I have been interested in trying this product ever since I saw it in stores, but honestly didn't want to spend the $19.99 CDN for them. I decided that I would wait until they were on sale to try them out, so when I saw them at Rexall Pharma Plus for $14.99 I thought I would pick them up! (These masks are still currently on sale until tomorrow, September 26th if you're interested in picking them up at 25% off)

Garnier claims that this 10-minute tissue mask:
