The perfect accessory to compliment my floaty summer dresses is the perfect lip colour. I was pretty excited to buy the Maybelline Color Whisper Lip Colors as they are just perfect for all of my summer outfits!

My Lipgloss Trick

Hello everyone! How are you today? I can finally post pictures for tutorials and reviews, as I had a little virus scare on my computer, and was wary about uploading any photos. Now that it's over, I want to share this little trick with you guys. I was surprised that other beauty bloggers knew about this, as I made it up in middle school, but I realized that people have probably been using this way before my time.

This trick works with any type of lipgloss. I find that it works for every type of application as well, whether it is a doe-foot applicator or even a clean finger. This trick will make your lips appear smoother, a little bit plumper, as well as give it a cool 3-D effect.

In order for this to work properly, make sure your lips are properly exfoliated and moisturized. I know that the "traditional way" of applying lipgloss is to just slather it on and press your lips together, but I think it ends up looking messy. Also, the lipgloss would settle into the lines of the lips, making its look odd.

The next step is to apply the lipgloss in downward strokes, rather than horizontally on your lips. In an other way of putting this, start with your choice of applicator at the top portion of one of the lips, and just aplly it in a downwards motion,and prepeat on the other lip.

That's it! That's how easy my "secret" lipgloss trick is! You know have something new to try out, especially if your not one for lip plumpers or injections (ouchie).

Thank you for reading!

Top 5 Beauty Must-Haves for the Holidays

Hey there! Long time no see! As some of may know, I've been incognito for the last little while, due t my arm injury, but I am finally back on track. I didn't realize that its already the last few days before Christmas until a few days ago, its like I've been in zombie mode from school that I hardly noticed. Bet there are a bunch of you who feel the same! This is also the time of the year when Christmas parties start to get even more bunched together, and you have to find time to plan your week around whether you are actually going or to lay low for the 4th party that week. For all of you busy bees out there this holiday season, here are my top 5 beauty must-haves that are sure to save time and possible your sanity.

#1: No7 Beautiful Skin BB Cream

 Get dewy, natural-looking coverage this season with this wonderful product. Its sheer colour doesn't take anything away from your natural skintone, so you get the natural coverage that you might have been searching for. There are three different formulas to suit your needs, which makes getting ready for the party less stressful. Just apply with clean fingers and go!

#2: Nyx Glitterati Glitter Cream Palette

I just have to say this this palette looks pretty darn amazing. It comes with 20 cream/gel glitter cream shades that can be used to add glitz and glamour to your face, body, and hair. It can add a punchy ppop of colour that many of us look for in holiday makeup looks, especially for eye shadow and liner looks. The combinations are endless, and its reasonably priced ( $19.00 CAD). You won't have to break the bank in search of high-octane holiday glitter!

#3: Hard candy Nobody's Perfect - Concealer Palette

I am a fan of any good quality makeup that comes in a palette. Concealer is no exception. The winter season can make your dry, sensitive, or even prone to constant redness. Luckily, this is a palette with many shades of concealer to meet your needs this season, and help you get ready faster and out the door.

#4:Bite Beauty Luminous Créme Lipstick Trio

 This is a limited edition set by the brand Bite Beauty which is sure not to disappoint. These three wonderful shades are the perfect match for an intense smokey eye for the holidays. Just swipe and go. the best part about these lipsticks is that you can probably skip the lipliner, whereas a bold red may require careful planning.

#5:Nyx The Curve Liquid Eyeliner

 I can say for certain that I am on the hunt for this product in Canada. So far, no luck. All of you that are able to find it should find this to be a wonderful product, especially for those who have trouble with liquid liner. I do not have trouble with applying liquid liner, but the design of this product appears as if it makes applying liquid liner nearly fool-proof. The formula is just as amazing as the design, so why not give it a try?



Well, that's my list, what would be on yours? Thanks for reading.







Happy Holidays
