Music for Monday

Hello you bubbly readers! Long time no talk! I was planning on doing a bunch of awesome tutorials for you guys, but I injured one of my arms, so taking pictures for the tutorials and demonstrating the tutorials is a no-go. Initially, I thought it would be better today, but so far no luck. The pain started around last Sunday. I woke up with a deep, radiating pain in my left bicep all the way to my inner elbow, and it has been hurting every since. It was a more intense, yet similar pain to the tetanus or whooping cough booster shot, for those lucky few that remember. Hopefully, I'll be finally able to get a doctor's appointment soon, and put out a tutorial for you all. Here's a tune I've been humming for the past week, that I bet you will be humming along too.

Look of the Day (LOTD): Two-Toned Liner!

Hello everyone! What a wonderful Saturday! I know most Canadians have a long weekend this month, but its for Remembrance Day. I hope everyone is safe this long weekend! I realized that I have not been wearing makeup as much lately, so I decided just to layer two eyeliners together, which seems perfect for such a great day. I remember when this used to be in fashion back in middle school, mostly because the double-sided Rimmel liners were the most handy, but turns out, it became a major hit among makeup lovers as well!Who knew such an innocent fashion attempt was actually a global trend. I also highlighted the inner corners of my eyes, to soften the look. What are your favourite ways to wear two-toned liner?Well, I'm off to go see a movie! Hope you all have a great day!






Take care,

How to Achieve Sculpted Blush in 30 Seconds or Less!

Hello everyone! Humans have been applying various types of pigments to enhance their cheekbones for centuries.Though its fun to try all if the different types, it can take quite a bit of time, just to achieve that perfectly sculpted loom most of us want to attain when applying blush. I was experimenting with many different tricks, and I found this one by accident.






Make a "peace-sign" with  one hand, and place it palm side up, and resting against your cheek . Change the angle of your hand, so it follows the lines of your cheekbone. Line up the point of the peace-sign where your mandible joint would be. Apply your favourite blush to the skin inside the peace sign, remove your hand, and then blend it out any harsh lines. You can now enjoy your perfectly sculpted blush!




Take Care

Tip:Add a Splash of Colour!

Hello everyone! I know there are many of you out there that just love the classic cat-eye look, especially if it is done with inky, black eyeliner. It's perfect for literally ever occasion, and can be transformed to suit your mood at a moment's notice. To expand your repertoire of handy cat eye looks, why not add a splash of colour into the mix? There are literally endless possibilities, but one of my favourite combos is a happy blue liner on the lower lash line and smudged a bit with a Q-tip, which gives your eyes that ethereal effect.What are your favourite ways to dress up black liner?



























Happy Saturday

Is Oil-Free Worth Buying?


Hello readers! I hope you are all enjoying this wonderful day! We all know of the various gimmicks that run a muck in the beauty world. This multi-billion dollar industry just keeps the trends coming, and its loyal followers occupied with the task of attempting to buy every "new" product out there. Now I'm not trying to dissuade you from buying Oil-free products, no, no!I'm just trying to say to be wary of this marketing gimmick.

 Yes, there are oil-free creams and cosmetics that work wonders for your skin, but is it really necessary to buy it? Most of the time, the oil-free and regular version of a product work just as well as the regular one! a lot of times, skin care companies will charge consumers more money for offering such a "special" version of their products. I have still broken out from using oil-free moisturizer, because thought you don't want to believe it it, they still contain oil.
