Recent Purchases 3
Hey cutie,
School has been bombarding me with work so I haven't found time to get around to writing this post but I am today! I just wanted to haul my "recent" purchases. I bought these about a month ago and have had a fair amount of time to test each product out.
L'oreal Infallible Pro-Last Lipcolor in Neverending Nutmeg
I was anticipating getting this specific colour because many people claim it as a "dupe" for Limecrime's Cashmere. If you look at swatches, they're not exactly dupes, but it's close enough that it made me excited. The colour itself looks great on my lips; the cool-toned taupeness of it is right up my ally, however I really do not enjoy this formula. It's one of those "2-step" lip lacquer lipcolours where you apply the colour first, wait for it to dry, and then apply a gloss on top to get rid of the tackiness. It's similar to the Rimmel Provocalips however I find the L'oreal one flakes super easily and settles into fine lines. After drinking with it on, the colour on the inner portion of my lips started to peel off in chunks and it's not cute. So much for long lasting.
Sephora Collection Colorful Face Powder in Tranquil
I'm always on a hunt for a good cool toned contour powder and I think I've hit the jackpot. Sephora came out for a whole blush collection that includes highlight and contour shades. Tranquil is a straight up grey-taupe cool toned contour shade that's perfect for pale-light skin. It's not too crazy pigmented that it'll make you look like you over-did your contour, but it's also not too sheer where it's not buildable. I especially love it for a natural nose contour.
Maybelline Dream Bouncy Blush in Plum Wine
I've been avoiding this bandwagon for quite some time but when I found myself in search for a drugstore cream blush, I kicked myself in the butt and bought this. The 'bouncy' concept to me is still a little useless/I don't really get it, but the product actually works really well. Since it's such a dark colour, it's super pigmented and I only need a tiny amount to give myself a nice flush on my cheeks. I love that you can use this with both your fingers and a brush, making it ideal for traveling if you don't want to carry too many brushes around.
Real Techniques Stippling Brush
What can I say? Real Techniques just has great brushes. I was lucky enough to snag this stippling brush (they are always sold out!). I use it to apply my foundations; it's great to have multiple brushes just so you don't have to keep washing the same one every single day.
MAC Velvet Teddy Lipstick
I finally found my MLBB! This colour matches my lips so well and it's matte. I tell you enough how much I love this lipstick. It's my every day to-go lip colour.
MAC Nylon and Omega Eyeshadow
I was looking to get Nylon for an inner corner highlight for a while now and got suckered into getting Omega as well. Omega is a good cool toned transition shade for your crease and I find myself using it every time I do my eyeshadow.

[Part 1] Maybelline Dream Lumi Touch Highlighting Concealer in Ivory Review
Hello cutieeeeee,
I'm gonna do a two-part concealer review on the Maybelline Dream Lumi and Fit Me concealers! First I'll be reviewing the Dream Lumi, then the Fit Me, and do a comparison at the end :)
*By the way, this has been in my drafts for a while so excuse my still-blonde pictures!
So this concealer is supposed to highlight and brighten your face so it's really great under your eyes and bridge of your nose; anywhere you want to highlight. The tip has a brush applicator which makes it easy to apply on your face and even blend out if you don't dispense too much product at once. I usually just use my fingers or my foundation brush though.
I got the lightest colour Ivory because I wanted the maximum highlight I could possible get. My skin is relatively light so it actually matched well. It blends out okay and you really only need a little bit.
Rating: ★★★★☆ 4/5
Overall I like this product for the brightening aspect of it. The only thing I don't like is how pricey it can be for such little product and how it can get a little cakey if you add too much. Other than that, it's a pretty decent highlighting concealer but don't expect to cover blemishes with this!

[Part 2] Maybelline Fit Me Concealer in 10 Light Review
Hello again, cuties!
This is the second part to my concealer review. I'll be talking about the Fit Me concealer by Maybelline, and then do a comparison at the end!
*By the way, this has been in my drafts for a while so excuse my still-blonde pictures!
This concealer didn't come with lots of packaging which I liked because that's just less junk for me to throw out. There's tape around the seal to insure it hasn't been opened yet. I got the shade 10 Light which is more yellow toned. (I should have picked Fair which is more pink!)
Despite me getting the pinker toned shade, this concealer still managed to look yellow on me! It blended into my skin okay but I was hoping for something more cool toned.
I got the colours mixed up and should've gotten Fair, which is why this was so yellow on me. My bad!
This concealer is best for blemishes and covering dark circles, but probably won't do much for you in terms of brightening or highlighting. It can cover pimples if you apply two coats. I just did one coat to show you the coverage.
Rating: ★★★★☆ 4/5
Overall this is a good concealer that many makeup junkies enjoy. It has good coverage and doesn't cake under the eyes too much. Personally, I like brightening concealers a lot more as I don't have many blemishes to cover.
Comparison
So which one is better? They're both good!... For different reasons. Fit Me is good to cover blemishes while Dream Lumi gives a really nice highlighting effect. Here they are under each of my eye in the same lighting. You can really see how bright the Dream Lumi is in direct sunlight.

The Lipstick Tag
I've been really into lipsticks lately so I thought doing this tag would be fun :) My collection is only in it's baby stage of growing so I think it'll be fun to re-do this in a year or two from now! There's apparently a blog version of this tag and a Youtube version. I'm going to do both version's questions :)
How many lipsticks do you own?
30 but I lost one. (Not including liquid stains and glosses!)
What was your first ever lipstick?
I believe it's a wine coloured Lancome lipstick that belonged to my mom but she never used it. I took it and wore it maybe twice in my life. I still remember the old lady scent it has, haha.
What is your favourite brand for lipstick?
Looking at my collection, I'd have to say Maybelline. I don't own many high end lipsticks but when it comes to drugstore, Maybelline is always on point with their lipsticks.
What is your most worn lipstick?
Maybelline Color Sensational The Buffs in Truffle Tease. It's a really good brown nude on me which is so easy to throw on and goes with everything.
What is your favourite finish?
Matte! I love matte lipsticks because they look so good on the lips and are easier to manage than glossy ones. They don't tend to get everywhere like on your face and teeth.
What was the last lipstick you bought?
Milani Sangria. It's a dupe or MAC's Rebel and I love it!
How many lip products do you currently have in your bag? (including glosses and balms)
I currently have 4 lip products in my backpack. There use to be way more but I recently cleaned it out, phew.
What lipstick do your use to rock a red lip?
Rimmel Lasting Finish Matte by Kate Moss in 111 Kiss of Life. It's such a good matte cool toned red that goes well with my skin tone. I've gotten lots of compliments while wearing this shade!
How do you store your lipsticks?
I usually just throw them in a bunch of makeup bags that I have on my table which carry the rest of my makeup collection. I don't have special containers or shelves to store my makeup though I'm starting to think I should.
What lip products are you currently lusting after?
Kat Von D Studded Kiss lipstick in Lolita and Lime Crime Velvatine in Cashmere
(however I refuse to buy Lime Crime! I just want a dupe of the colour).
Favourite balm/treatment?
I have two because both together have helped my lips heal up super well. Carmex and Blistex Lip Medex.
Best eye-catching red?
Probably my Rimmel 111 again. All my other reds are pretty dark/wine coloured which isn't as eye-catching in my opinion.
Best luxury & best drugstore?
I don't own any "luxury" brands and the closest one would be MAC's Cyber&Viva Glam2. Best drugstore goes to any of the Maybelline Color Sensations!
Best MAC lipstick?
Cyber lol, though I currently only own two MAC lipsticks.
The most disappointing?
Rimmel Lasting Finish Matte by Kate Moss in 102. It's such a surprise to me that I love 111 so much but 102 is a total let down! Not only is the colour horrible on me, but the formula on this particular one is so bad! It settles into lip lines and makes dead skin so visible.
Liner - yes or no?
Yes but no? I know the importance of lip liner and I do use it when I'm wearing a bright red but I lack lip liners for every other colour so I don't use one as much as I'd like to. I think I should just invest in one of those clear ones.
Best gloss?
None. I hate gloss!
Something extra!
Here's my three vampy shades! Left to right: NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream in Transylvania, Wet n Wild's Vamp It Up, MAC's Cyber. If you're looking to get this colour, here's the differences. The NYX one is the most matte but also the lightest of the three. The Wet n Wild one is super dark and even more opaque than MAC's but it also goes on a little patchy on your lips. MAC's Cyber is a satin finish and glides on really nicely but is the medium shade of the three.

April Favourites 2015
I'm back with another monthly favourite (even though I don't do every single month...)! A lot of these products have already been mentioned on my blog already because most are recent purchases but I fell in love with them really quickly!
Beauty Blender
This thing is great. I just did a review on it raving about how the hype is so real. Honestly if you're into dewy skin, or if you have dry skin, this thing will change your makeup forever. It's worth the money!
Maybelline Fit Me Hydrate + Smooth Foundation
I know they repackaged this with the same old formula but they also have a matte version now. Obviously I went for the hydrate version (I think it's called dewy in the States). This is my first time trying an actual foundation (I've only used Korean BB creams up to this point!) and I really like this one paired with the Beauty Blender!
MAC Viva Glam 2 Lipstick
This has been my go-to nude lipstick ever since I got it, which is what I got it for. It's one of my monthly favourites because this is the exact colour I had in my head when I was going into the store.
Etude House Pore Ever Primer
I just rediscovered this in my makeup stash and I don't know why I stopped using it. It creates a nice barrier between my skin and my foundation/bb cream and prevents my skin from looking flaky throughout the day. There's a big difference when I use it and don't.
Lush Sugar Lip Scrub
This thing literally saved my lips and I did a whole review on it. The oils they add into the scrub really makes a difference, leaving my lips smooth and hydrated. Of course, it's necessary to still follow up with a good lip balm. I love that you can literally lick it off your lips and eat it!
What are some of your favourite products? I'm always looking for some holy grail items!

Recent Purchases
Your girl has been busy these past days... shopping. These are my recent purchases within the last two months or so. I really need to cut back on all the unnecessary things that I don't need and save up some cash. I basically had a bunch of cash in my wallet because I was saving up to by a David's Tea travel mug but decided last minute against buying it because I figured I couldn't use it as much as I imagined I would
(good choice made, btw). Instead, I spent it on some items that I've been wanting to buy for a while now and I'm quite happy.
First thing is that I needed new sunglasses. I buy sunglasses every year around Spring/Summer because I like getting the really cheap ones so I can always switch it up ever year if I end up getting bored of the current style. Personally, I don't see a point in buying expensive sunglasses because these get broken and tossed around so often, it's just not worth it.
I went around the mall to different stores and tired out their sunglasses but decided on two pairs from Call It Spring. They were having a 2 for $20 sale which suckered me in because of course I want two instead of one! I tried a couple of pairs on and settled with these two. I really like them because for once, they frame my face really well! Even though they're pretty cheap, I find the quality of these trumps say, Forever21 sunglasses.
The
blue reflective aviators aren't flimsy like my previous ones from H&M. They're small enough to fit my face and the nose grips are screwed in so they won't come loose
(a previous problem I had with my older pair).
I can't find the other pair on their website, but
these are the closest ones. The pattern on them are just different. I really like this pair because the side of them are a matte finish and it feels super smooth! You wouldn't think this is anything special but they make the biggest difference when you slide them on your head because they go on really easily and they feel really nice against your ears. As a person that wears glasses with a rubbery end, I can really tell the difference. The only thing I want to note about this pair is that it came with a sticker that warns you not to look directly into the sun with these because they weren't made for that. I can't imagine anyone that would be looking directly at the sun anyway...
I should mention that I also bought this necklace from Call It Spring. They didn't have my sign in stores so they helped me order one and have it sent to my house. I'm still waiting on it to come in the mail. You know I can't pass up anything astrology!
The Beauty Blender wasn't something I was particularly planning to buy. I've thought about it a couple of times and I definitely wanted it, but I wasn't ready to shed 30 some-off dollars
(that's with Canadian tax and all) for a sponge! Zack convinced me to pick something out in Sephora when he practically dangled $10 in my face, so I quickly ran over and picked up a Beauty Blender. Thanks babe! I'll do a separate review for this because I have some points I really want to talk about.
I have two new lipsticks this month; Maybelline Vivid's Vibrant Mandarin and MAC's Viva Glam 2. I was looking at the Vivid's line and I knew I wanted one but I wasn't sure which one. Vibrant Mandarin was the only one that really caught my eye. Ever since trying out Revlon's Rendezvous, I was determined to find an orange that actually suit my skin tone and thankfully Vibrant Mandarin does! It's the perfect orange with a red undertone which is what helps me pull this colour off.
As for the Viva Glam 2- I went into MAC looking for a nude MLBB and specifically requested something on the purple-brown-taupe side... Just nothing pink. The worker suggested this one and I tried it out in store. I loved it! This is going to be my go-to every day nude.
There's only one shown here, but I picked up two belly button jewelry from Hot Topic. The other one is a gold arrow. I was a little iffy about buying their jewelry because I heard they're really cheap but the girl working there said she's been wearing hers for a long time and nothing has happened. It's also made of surgical steel, so it should be okay... I'll report back if anything changes.
Last but not least, I purchased a set of Sakura Pigma Brush pens. I really want to get into watercolour painting so these pens are going to be perfect for doing line work. I'm going to try and make it a goal to do at least 5 watercolour paintings this summer. So far I've tested them out and they're really nice.

2015 Favourite Lipsticks
Hi cuties!
I've been on such a lipstick craze lately and decided to do a favourites post. These are the colours that I've been loving on my lips lately. Most of these are from the drugstore. Lipsticks are really addicting to collect because drugstore ones are only a couple of bucks each so I have a habit of purchasing one every time I see one on sale at the drugstore.
I'm thinking about trying Maybelline's Vivid and Rebel Bloom collection but those colours were a little out of my comfort zone. Maybe I'll drag a friend along and swatch with me until I find one that I think will look good on me. I want a really bright vibrant colour for the spring this year!
Anyway, here's a bunch of swatches to give you an idea of some of the shades I lean towards.
1. Rimmel London Provocalips in Little Minx
This is my very first bright fuschia colour. I've always been afraid of this colour but at the same time so intrigued so I bit the bullet and got it with my fingers crossed. It turned out to be such a fun colour on me! I also love the 16hr formula of this product.
2. Rimmel London Provocalips in Heartbreaker
Another 16hr Provocalips! It looks a little more brown in the picture but in real life it's a little more red toned. I'd say this is one of the very few warmer toned colours I own.
3. MAC Lipstick in Cyber
Ah, the famous Cyber! The swatch doesn't do it real justice, it's more of a dark purple. This lipstick is sooooo love. You'll feel like a badass wearing this.
4. Rimmel London Lasting Finish by Kate Lipstick in 111 Kiss of Life
This is the perfect red for me. It's a cooltoned matte red that every girl needs in her collection. So happy it's a cheap drugstore product, yet it lasts a long time on my lips without drying!
5. Revlon Colourburst Matte Balm in Shameless
This is straight up purple, similar to MAC's Heroine. It's super pigmented and cooltoned but doesn't stain your lips.
6. Maybelline Colour Sensational Creamy Mattes Lipstick in Touch of Spice
This is the colour I've been reaching for the most lately. It's a dusty red and it's such a nice colour on the lips when you want something red but nothing too bright. I call this my "nude red".
7. Maybelline Colour Sensational The Buffs Lipstick in Truffle Tease
Truffle Tease is my favourite nude because it's a brown-nude that a little darker than my skintone so it doesn't make me look dead. The formula is also really creamy and hydrating on my lips.
8. Maybelline Colour Sensational Lipstick in Blissful Berry
This is another purple colour but I'd say it's more like if Shameless and Little Minx had a love-baby. It's a purple berry colour that is good for the fall. It's also has a bit of a sheen to it that I don't particular mind even though I prefer mattes over any other finishes.
What are your favourite lipstick shades? Got any recommendations? Own and love any of these colours? Let me know!

Hello, Aquarius season
It's been such a while since I last did a life update post. I think the last one was back in December of last year. I've just been keeping busy, so let's get into it!
Bath and Body Works had their semi annual sale right at the beginning of the year and I took advantage of that! I picked up two body washes and a pair of their fox slippers. I'm not really a big slipper wearer but I've had these on my feet since I've gotten them and they keep my feet so warm! Did I mention they're super soft too?
This year's Sephora birthday gift is two mini NARS lip pencils. I must admit, I loveeeeee the colours they chose, especially the pink nude; I've been looking all over for a colour like this! The down side is that it doesn't look like these are sharpenable so whatever product you see is all you get. But hey, it's free so you can't complain.
Here's something silly that I purchased. Alice in Wonderland is one of my favourite characters and I was super thrilled to have finally found these books! I know there are plenty of versions but I was specifically looking for this version. The illustrations are just so cute! It's weird, I haven't actually read through the entire story so I'm going to bring these along with me on the bus to keep me busy.
I recently saw Mike again and he put in a new toner! We added a little purple in and it came out really nice. It was supposed to fade out in about two weeks but it's actually still lingering on! I'm not sure how I feel about that exactly because I do really like my blonde, I hope it comes back.
My birthday was in January and my friend gifted me MAC's Cyber! I've been eye this baby for the longest time and constantly finding dupes but nothing tops the real deal. Cyber is definitely not everyone's colour, but it's just so fun to wear! It makes me feel vampy and bad ass. If you're looking to step out of your comfort zone, give it a shot.
I also gave myself a little birthday shopping spree and purchased a buttload of stuff at one go. As you can see, mango is one of my favourite fruits and scents. My favourites of out of bunch are definitely The Body Shop sugar body scrub, body butter, and Lush's The Kiss lipscrub.
To celebrate, my girls and I headed to karaoke at my favourite spot and sang our hearts out. It's really refreshing to hang out with your friends and have a silly night out once in a while since it's almost rare for us to get together like this now.
I got new boots! After my last pair pretty much broke down on me after a good year of wear and tear, I managed to hunt down this hair from JustFab. Spoiler alert: I am NOT fond of the fact you pretty much get charged $40 each month if you don't skip within the first 5 days. I snagged this pair for $18 after tax and shipping and canceled my membership.
The smallest size was 5.5 which wasn't too big of an issue for me; I'm usually a size 5. After tightening the laces, they fit my narrow feet perfectly. The heel is thick and not too high making it super comfortable to walk it. I can barely tell there's a heel but they give a nice height boost. The material is pretty cheap, so I'm glad I didn't have to pay a full $40 for these but for around $18, they're pretty worth it. I'm excited for the snow to melt away so I can bust these babies out.
This week, I made two purchases that I'm so excited about. These two have been raved about on Youtube and for good reason! I'll definitely be doing a review soon.
Anyway, Valentines day is coming soon. I'm really excited to be spending it with my boyfriend although we don't have anything special planned yet. Also, Jin is back in Toronto and we're going to hang out next Tuesdays! I AM SO EXCITED TO SEE HER YOU HAVE NO IDEA!!!! I think it's been a good 4-5 years since I last saw her and I'm just dying to hang out with her again.
And of course, here's a bunch of other nonsense.
Happy Aquarius season, by the way! How's your 2015 going so far? Let me know!

Snowvember
Hi there, cuties!
Long time no post. Between balancing my projects and spending quality time with my boyfriend, I find myself show on blogging time. My semester ends in about two weeks so I'll have plenty of time after that to focus on my blog! Of course, I'm always active on social media so you know I'm not actually dead :)
So something exciting that happened last month was that I got to have Thanksgiving dinner with my boyfriend's family! It's my first time having an actual Thanksgiving with turkey and all that jazz. I have to say, the food was amazingly delicious. It was also my first time meeting the whole family. They were all very nice and welcoming.
Zack ended up going to the Cirque du Soleil show and brought me back some goodies. As someone who appreciates design and steampunk, I thoroughly enjoyed these.
There was also a guest speaker at school that did a whole 2 hour presentation about paper... To be honest, I was falling asleep through the whole thing (that class is from 5-9pm, okay?!) At least we got a bunch of freebees at the end. The thing I was most excited about was the issue of Applied Arts. I love this magazine but it's $15 a pop! It's definitely not one that I can afford to buy every issue of so it's always exciting when I get a free copy.
Katsu's birthday happened and my cousin had a small gathering. The dress code was "all black everything". Clearly I forgot my black scarf.


Something makeup related- I was running low on eyeshadow primer so I went and bought my old friend Urban Decay Primer Potion. Ah yes, a cult favourite. I was using Too Faced Shadow Insurance before this for a very good while, and before that, I had the old version of UDPP (you know, the one in the potion bottle with the wand). The reason I strayed away from UDPP was because upon the first week of using it, I developed an allergic reaction to it. My eyelids got all red and swollen, and towards the end of the week, the skin started peeling. I was pretty sure its the primer that was doing it but being the silly girl I am, I trucked on and continued to use it because hello, this stuff is pricey (even though Sephora has a pretty darn good return policy which I wasn't aware of back then). So after a month of using it, I guess my eyes got use to it and I no longer got reactions.
After finishing that bottle, I attempted to try TFSI because those two are the top primers in the makeup world. I liked it. It did it's job and it's a little more oily than UDPP which didn't help or bother me. Now that I've finished TFSI, I repurchased UDPP to see if I would go through the whole process again. To my surprise, no reaction! And I have to say, after using TFSI and UDPP, it seems to me like UDPP actually makes my eyeshadows
slightly more vibrant. I noticed it with my purple shadows when I applied it all over my lid. Maybe that's just me but I'm very happy to be back with UDPP. And can I just say, I'm soooooo glad they changed the packaging to a squeeze tube.
Here's my Halloween costume. I was Alice three-four years ago and I thought I'd bring it back. Although I do wish I had kept my blonde until Halloween was over just to complete the look.
Flower cosmetics finally came to Canada. I picked up the stick foundation in a darker shade for a on-the-go contour and the cream shadow in Orchid-ing Around. Both products are just okay. I wish the stick foundation came in a more cool-toned shade, and I wish the cream shadow didn't sheer out so much. The texture is so bizarre and not what I was expecting. I wish both products were more long lasting, even with primer and powder.
Red cups are back at Starbucks! It's so exciting, isn't it? Winter drinks are back which means my favourite Peppermint Mocha is back (although I'm a rebel and have been ordering it before red cups came back). Starbucks also came out with their new holiday collection of cups and tumblers and I must say that I'm liking the designs. I really want to pick one up but I already have one that works just fine :\ Not sure if I can justify being a new one.
The Mabelline Matte lipsticks are finally making their way to Canadian shelves! I've been checking the drugstores every single week and it looks like Walmart are the first to carry them. We don't have a really large selection of colours so I'm waiting it out a little longer to see if they'll restock.
Other than that, I haven't been up to much. It's mostly just school and spending time with my boyfriend. I seem to disappear from social media when I'm around him because I put all my focus and attention on him :)
Oh, and I'm working on two wishlists: a makeup one and a fashion one, so look out for those coming in a couple of days!

Recent Purchases 3
Hey cutie,
School has been bombarding me with work so I haven't found time to get around to writing this post but I am today! I just wanted to haul my "recent" purchases. I bought these about a month ago and have had a fair amount of time to test each product out.
L'oreal Infallible Pro-Last Lipcolor in Neverending Nutmeg
I was anticipating getting this specific colour because many people claim it as a "dupe" for Limecrime's Cashmere. If you look at swatches, they're not exactly dupes, but it's close enough that it made me excited. The colour itself looks great on my lips; the cool-toned taupeness of it is right up my ally, however I really do not enjoy this formula. It's one of those "2-step" lip lacquer lipcolours where you apply the colour first, wait for it to dry, and then apply a gloss on top to get rid of the tackiness. It's similar to the Rimmel Provocalips however I find the L'oreal one flakes super easily and settles into fine lines. After drinking with it on, the colour on the inner portion of my lips started to peel off in chunks and it's not cute. So much for long lasting.
Sephora Collection Colorful Face Powder in Tranquil
I'm always on a hunt for a good cool toned contour powder and I think I've hit the jackpot. Sephora came out for a whole blush collection that includes highlight and contour shades. Tranquil is a straight up grey-taupe cool toned contour shade that's perfect for pale-light skin. It's not too crazy pigmented that it'll make you look like you over-did your contour, but it's also not too sheer where it's not buildable. I especially love it for a natural nose contour.
Maybelline Dream Bouncy Blush in Plum Wine
I've been avoiding this bandwagon for quite some time but when I found myself in search for a drugstore cream blush, I kicked myself in the butt and bought this. The 'bouncy' concept to me is still a little useless/I don't really get it, but the product actually works really well. Since it's such a dark colour, it's super pigmented and I only need a tiny amount to give myself a nice flush on my cheeks. I love that you can use this with both your fingers and a brush, making it ideal for traveling if you don't want to carry too many brushes around.
Real Techniques Stippling Brush
What can I say? Real Techniques just has great brushes. I was lucky enough to snag this stippling brush (they are always sold out!). I use it to apply my foundations; it's great to have multiple brushes just so you don't have to keep washing the same one every single day.
MAC Velvet Teddy Lipstick
I finally found my MLBB! This colour matches my lips so well and it's matte. I tell you enough how much I love this lipstick. It's my every day to-go lip colour.
MAC Nylon and Omega Eyeshadow
I was looking to get Nylon for an inner corner highlight for a while now and got suckered into getting Omega as well. Omega is a good cool toned transition shade for your crease and I find myself using it every time I do my eyeshadow.

[Part 1] Maybelline Dream Lumi Touch Highlighting Concealer in Ivory Review
Hello cutieeeeee,
I'm gonna do a two-part concealer review on the Maybelline Dream Lumi and Fit Me concealers! First I'll be reviewing the Dream Lumi, then the Fit Me, and do a comparison at the end :)
*By the way, this has been in my drafts for a while so excuse my still-blonde pictures!
So this concealer is supposed to highlight and brighten your face so it's really great under your eyes and bridge of your nose; anywhere you want to highlight. The tip has a brush applicator which makes it easy to apply on your face and even blend out if you don't dispense too much product at once. I usually just use my fingers or my foundation brush though.
I got the lightest colour Ivory because I wanted the maximum highlight I could possible get. My skin is relatively light so it actually matched well. It blends out okay and you really only need a little bit.

Overall I like this product for the brightening aspect of it. The only thing I don't like is how pricey it can be for such little product and how it can get a little cakey if you add too much. Other than that, it's a pretty decent highlighting concealer but don't expect to cover blemishes with this!

[Part 2] Maybelline Fit Me Concealer in 10 Light Review
Hello again, cuties!
This is the second part to my concealer review. I'll be talking about the Fit Me concealer by Maybelline, and then do a comparison at the end!
*By the way, this has been in my drafts for a while so excuse my still-blonde pictures!
This concealer didn't come with lots of packaging which I liked because that's just less junk for me to throw out. There's tape around the seal to insure it hasn't been opened yet. I got the shade 10 Light which is more yellow toned. (I should have picked Fair which is more pink!)
Despite me getting the pinker toned shade, this concealer still managed to look yellow on me! It blended into my skin okay but I was hoping for something more cool toned.
I got the colours mixed up and should've gotten Fair, which is why this was so yellow on me. My bad!
This concealer is best for blemishes and covering dark circles, but probably won't do much for you in terms of brightening or highlighting. It can cover pimples if you apply two coats. I just did one coat to show you the coverage.
Rating: ★★★★☆ 4/5
Overall this is a good concealer that many makeup junkies enjoy. It has good coverage and doesn't cake under the eyes too much. Personally, I like brightening concealers a lot more as I don't have many blemishes to cover.
Comparison
So which one is better? They're both good!... For different reasons. Fit Me is good to cover blemishes while Dream Lumi gives a really nice highlighting effect. Here they are under each of my eye in the same lighting. You can really see how bright the Dream Lumi is in direct sunlight.

The Lipstick Tag
I've been really into lipsticks lately so I thought doing this tag would be fun :) My collection is only in it's baby stage of growing so I think it'll be fun to re-do this in a year or two from now! There's apparently a blog version of this tag and a Youtube version. I'm going to do both version's questions :)
How many lipsticks do you own?
30 but I lost one. (Not including liquid stains and glosses!)
What was your first ever lipstick?
I believe it's a wine coloured Lancome lipstick that belonged to my mom but she never used it. I took it and wore it maybe twice in my life. I still remember the old lady scent it has, haha.
What is your favourite brand for lipstick?
Looking at my collection, I'd have to say Maybelline. I don't own many high end lipsticks but when it comes to drugstore, Maybelline is always on point with their lipsticks.
What is your most worn lipstick?
Maybelline Color Sensational The Buffs in Truffle Tease. It's a really good brown nude on me which is so easy to throw on and goes with everything.
What is your favourite finish?
Matte! I love matte lipsticks because they look so good on the lips and are easier to manage than glossy ones. They don't tend to get everywhere like on your face and teeth.
What was the last lipstick you bought?
Milani Sangria. It's a dupe or MAC's Rebel and I love it!
How many lip products do you currently have in your bag? (including glosses and balms)
I currently have 4 lip products in my backpack. There use to be way more but I recently cleaned it out, phew.
What lipstick do your use to rock a red lip?
Rimmel Lasting Finish Matte by Kate Moss in 111 Kiss of Life. It's such a good matte cool toned red that goes well with my skin tone. I've gotten lots of compliments while wearing this shade!
How do you store your lipsticks?
I usually just throw them in a bunch of makeup bags that I have on my table which carry the rest of my makeup collection. I don't have special containers or shelves to store my makeup though I'm starting to think I should.
What lip products are you currently lusting after?
Kat Von D Studded Kiss lipstick in Lolita and Lime Crime Velvatine in Cashmere
(however I refuse to buy Lime Crime! I just want a dupe of the colour).
Favourite balm/treatment?
I have two because both together have helped my lips heal up super well. Carmex and Blistex Lip Medex.
Best eye-catching red?
Probably my Rimmel 111 again. All my other reds are pretty dark/wine coloured which isn't as eye-catching in my opinion.
Best luxury & best drugstore?
I don't own any "luxury" brands and the closest one would be MAC's Cyber&Viva Glam2. Best drugstore goes to any of the Maybelline Color Sensations!
Best MAC lipstick?
Cyber lol, though I currently only own two MAC lipsticks.
The most disappointing?
Rimmel Lasting Finish Matte by Kate Moss in 102. It's such a surprise to me that I love 111 so much but 102 is a total let down! Not only is the colour horrible on me, but the formula on this particular one is so bad! It settles into lip lines and makes dead skin so visible.
Liner - yes or no?
Yes but no? I know the importance of lip liner and I do use it when I'm wearing a bright red but I lack lip liners for every other colour so I don't use one as much as I'd like to. I think I should just invest in one of those clear ones.
Best gloss?
None. I hate gloss!
Something extra!
Here's my three vampy shades! Left to right: NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream in Transylvania, Wet n Wild's Vamp It Up, MAC's Cyber. If you're looking to get this colour, here's the differences. The NYX one is the most matte but also the lightest of the three. The Wet n Wild one is super dark and even more opaque than MAC's but it also goes on a little patchy on your lips. MAC's Cyber is a satin finish and glides on really nicely but is the medium shade of the three.

April Favourites 2015
I'm back with another monthly favourite (even though I don't do every single month...)! A lot of these products have already been mentioned on my blog already because most are recent purchases but I fell in love with them really quickly!
Beauty Blender
This thing is great. I just did a review on it raving about how the hype is so real. Honestly if you're into dewy skin, or if you have dry skin, this thing will change your makeup forever. It's worth the money!
Maybelline Fit Me Hydrate + Smooth Foundation
I know they repackaged this with the same old formula but they also have a matte version now. Obviously I went for the hydrate version (I think it's called dewy in the States). This is my first time trying an actual foundation (I've only used Korean BB creams up to this point!) and I really like this one paired with the Beauty Blender!
MAC Viva Glam 2 Lipstick
This has been my go-to nude lipstick ever since I got it, which is what I got it for. It's one of my monthly favourites because this is the exact colour I had in my head when I was going into the store.
Etude House Pore Ever Primer
I just rediscovered this in my makeup stash and I don't know why I stopped using it. It creates a nice barrier between my skin and my foundation/bb cream and prevents my skin from looking flaky throughout the day. There's a big difference when I use it and don't.
Lush Sugar Lip Scrub
This thing literally saved my lips and I did a whole review on it. The oils they add into the scrub really makes a difference, leaving my lips smooth and hydrated. Of course, it's necessary to still follow up with a good lip balm. I love that you can literally lick it off your lips and eat it!
What are some of your favourite products? I'm always looking for some holy grail items!

Recent Purchases
Your girl has been busy these past days... shopping. These are my recent purchases within the last two months or so. I really need to cut back on all the unnecessary things that I don't need and save up some cash. I basically had a bunch of cash in my wallet because I was saving up to by a David's Tea travel mug but decided last minute against buying it because I figured I couldn't use it as much as I imagined I would
(good choice made, btw). Instead, I spent it on some items that I've been wanting to buy for a while now and I'm quite happy.
First thing is that I needed new sunglasses. I buy sunglasses every year around Spring/Summer because I like getting the really cheap ones so I can always switch it up ever year if I end up getting bored of the current style. Personally, I don't see a point in buying expensive sunglasses because these get broken and tossed around so often, it's just not worth it.
I went around the mall to different stores and tired out their sunglasses but decided on two pairs from Call It Spring. They were having a 2 for $20 sale which suckered me in because of course I want two instead of one! I tried a couple of pairs on and settled with these two. I really like them because for once, they frame my face really well! Even though they're pretty cheap, I find the quality of these trumps say, Forever21 sunglasses.
The
blue reflective aviators aren't flimsy like my previous ones from H&M. They're small enough to fit my face and the nose grips are screwed in so they won't come loose
(a previous problem I had with my older pair).
I can't find the other pair on their website, but
these are the closest ones. The pattern on them are just different. I really like this pair because the side of them are a matte finish and it feels super smooth! You wouldn't think this is anything special but they make the biggest difference when you slide them on your head because they go on really easily and they feel really nice against your ears. As a person that wears glasses with a rubbery end, I can really tell the difference. The only thing I want to note about this pair is that it came with a sticker that warns you not to look directly into the sun with these because they weren't made for that. I can't imagine anyone that would be looking directly at the sun anyway...
I should mention that I also bought this necklace from Call It Spring. They didn't have my sign in stores so they helped me order one and have it sent to my house. I'm still waiting on it to come in the mail. You know I can't pass up anything astrology!
The Beauty Blender wasn't something I was particularly planning to buy. I've thought about it a couple of times and I definitely wanted it, but I wasn't ready to shed 30 some-off dollars
(that's with Canadian tax and all) for a sponge! Zack convinced me to pick something out in Sephora when he practically dangled $10 in my face, so I quickly ran over and picked up a Beauty Blender. Thanks babe! I'll do a separate review for this because I have some points I really want to talk about.
I have two new lipsticks this month; Maybelline Vivid's Vibrant Mandarin and MAC's Viva Glam 2. I was looking at the Vivid's line and I knew I wanted one but I wasn't sure which one. Vibrant Mandarin was the only one that really caught my eye. Ever since trying out Revlon's Rendezvous, I was determined to find an orange that actually suit my skin tone and thankfully Vibrant Mandarin does! It's the perfect orange with a red undertone which is what helps me pull this colour off.
As for the Viva Glam 2- I went into MAC looking for a nude MLBB and specifically requested something on the purple-brown-taupe side... Just nothing pink. The worker suggested this one and I tried it out in store. I loved it! This is going to be my go-to every day nude.
There's only one shown here, but I picked up two belly button jewelry from Hot Topic. The other one is a gold arrow. I was a little iffy about buying their jewelry because I heard they're really cheap but the girl working there said she's been wearing hers for a long time and nothing has happened. It's also made of surgical steel, so it should be okay... I'll report back if anything changes.
Last but not least, I purchased a set of Sakura Pigma Brush pens. I really want to get into watercolour painting so these pens are going to be perfect for doing line work. I'm going to try and make it a goal to do at least 5 watercolour paintings this summer. So far I've tested them out and they're really nice.

2015 Favourite Lipsticks
Hi cuties!
I've been on such a lipstick craze lately and decided to do a favourites post. These are the colours that I've been loving on my lips lately. Most of these are from the drugstore. Lipsticks are really addicting to collect because drugstore ones are only a couple of bucks each so I have a habit of purchasing one every time I see one on sale at the drugstore.
I'm thinking about trying Maybelline's Vivid and Rebel Bloom collection but those colours were a little out of my comfort zone. Maybe I'll drag a friend along and swatch with me until I find one that I think will look good on me. I want a really bright vibrant colour for the spring this year!
Anyway, here's a bunch of swatches to give you an idea of some of the shades I lean towards.
1. Rimmel London Provocalips in Little Minx
This is my very first bright fuschia colour. I've always been afraid of this colour but at the same time so intrigued so I bit the bullet and got it with my fingers crossed. It turned out to be such a fun colour on me! I also love the 16hr formula of this product.
2. Rimmel London Provocalips in Heartbreaker
Another 16hr Provocalips! It looks a little more brown in the picture but in real life it's a little more red toned. I'd say this is one of the very few warmer toned colours I own.
3. MAC Lipstick in Cyber
Ah, the famous Cyber! The swatch doesn't do it real justice, it's more of a dark purple. This lipstick is sooooo love. You'll feel like a badass wearing this.
4. Rimmel London Lasting Finish by Kate Lipstick in 111 Kiss of Life
This is the perfect red for me. It's a cooltoned matte red that every girl needs in her collection. So happy it's a cheap drugstore product, yet it lasts a long time on my lips without drying!
5. Revlon Colourburst Matte Balm in Shameless
This is straight up purple, similar to MAC's Heroine. It's super pigmented and cooltoned but doesn't stain your lips.
6. Maybelline Colour Sensational Creamy Mattes Lipstick in Touch of Spice
This is the colour I've been reaching for the most lately. It's a dusty red and it's such a nice colour on the lips when you want something red but nothing too bright. I call this my "nude red".
7. Maybelline Colour Sensational The Buffs Lipstick in Truffle Tease
Truffle Tease is my favourite nude because it's a brown-nude that a little darker than my skintone so it doesn't make me look dead. The formula is also really creamy and hydrating on my lips.
8. Maybelline Colour Sensational Lipstick in Blissful Berry
This is another purple colour but I'd say it's more like if Shameless and Little Minx had a love-baby. It's a purple berry colour that is good for the fall. It's also has a bit of a sheen to it that I don't particular mind even though I prefer mattes over any other finishes.

Hello, Aquarius season
It's been such a while since I last did a life update post. I think the last one was back in December of last year. I've just been keeping busy, so let's get into it!
Bath and Body Works had their semi annual sale right at the beginning of the year and I took advantage of that! I picked up two body washes and a pair of their fox slippers. I'm not really a big slipper wearer but I've had these on my feet since I've gotten them and they keep my feet so warm! Did I mention they're super soft too?
This year's Sephora birthday gift is two mini NARS lip pencils. I must admit, I loveeeeee the colours they chose, especially the pink nude; I've been looking all over for a colour like this! The down side is that it doesn't look like these are sharpenable so whatever product you see is all you get. But hey, it's free so you can't complain.
Here's something silly that I purchased. Alice in Wonderland is one of my favourite characters and I was super thrilled to have finally found these books! I know there are plenty of versions but I was specifically looking for this version. The illustrations are just so cute! It's weird, I haven't actually read through the entire story so I'm going to bring these along with me on the bus to keep me busy.
I recently saw Mike again and he put in a new toner! We added a little purple in and it came out really nice. It was supposed to fade out in about two weeks but it's actually still lingering on! I'm not sure how I feel about that exactly because I do really like my blonde, I hope it comes back.
My birthday was in January and my friend gifted me MAC's Cyber! I've been eye this baby for the longest time and constantly finding dupes but nothing tops the real deal. Cyber is definitely not everyone's colour, but it's just so fun to wear! It makes me feel vampy and bad ass. If you're looking to step out of your comfort zone, give it a shot.
I also gave myself a little birthday shopping spree and purchased a buttload of stuff at one go. As you can see, mango is one of my favourite fruits and scents. My favourites of out of bunch are definitely The Body Shop sugar body scrub, body butter, and Lush's The Kiss lipscrub.
To celebrate, my girls and I headed to karaoke at my favourite spot and sang our hearts out. It's really refreshing to hang out with your friends and have a silly night out once in a while since it's almost rare for us to get together like this now.
I got new boots! After my last pair pretty much broke down on me after a good year of wear and tear, I managed to hunt down this hair from JustFab. Spoiler alert: I am NOT fond of the fact you pretty much get charged $40 each month if you don't skip within the first 5 days. I snagged this pair for $18 after tax and shipping and canceled my membership.
The smallest size was 5.5 which wasn't too big of an issue for me; I'm usually a size 5. After tightening the laces, they fit my narrow feet perfectly. The heel is thick and not too high making it super comfortable to walk it. I can barely tell there's a heel but they give a nice height boost. The material is pretty cheap, so I'm glad I didn't have to pay a full $40 for these but for around $18, they're pretty worth it. I'm excited for the snow to melt away so I can bust these babies out.
This week, I made two purchases that I'm so excited about. These two have been raved about on Youtube and for good reason! I'll definitely be doing a review soon.
Anyway, Valentines day is coming soon. I'm really excited to be spending it with my boyfriend although we don't have anything special planned yet. Also, Jin is back in Toronto and we're going to hang out next Tuesdays! I AM SO EXCITED TO SEE HER YOU HAVE NO IDEA!!!! I think it's been a good 4-5 years since I last saw her and I'm just dying to hang out with her again.
And of course, here's a bunch of other nonsense.
Happy Aquarius season, by the way! How's your 2015 going so far? Let me know!

Snowvember
Hi there, cuties!
Long time no post. Between balancing my projects and spending quality time with my boyfriend, I find myself show on blogging time. My semester ends in about two weeks so I'll have plenty of time after that to focus on my blog! Of course, I'm always active on social media so you know I'm not actually dead :)
So something exciting that happened last month was that I got to have Thanksgiving dinner with my boyfriend's family! It's my first time having an actual Thanksgiving with turkey and all that jazz. I have to say, the food was amazingly delicious. It was also my first time meeting the whole family. They were all very nice and welcoming.
Zack ended up going to the Cirque du Soleil show and brought me back some goodies. As someone who appreciates design and steampunk, I thoroughly enjoyed these.
There was also a guest speaker at school that did a whole 2 hour presentation about paper... To be honest, I was falling asleep through the whole thing (that class is from 5-9pm, okay?!) At least we got a bunch of freebees at the end. The thing I was most excited about was the issue of Applied Arts. I love this magazine but it's $15 a pop! It's definitely not one that I can afford to buy every issue of so it's always exciting when I get a free copy.
Katsu's birthday happened and my cousin had a small gathering. The dress code was "all black everything". Clearly I forgot my black scarf.


Something makeup related- I was running low on eyeshadow primer so I went and bought my old friend Urban Decay Primer Potion. Ah yes, a cult favourite. I was using Too Faced Shadow Insurance before this for a very good while, and before that, I had the old version of UDPP (you know, the one in the potion bottle with the wand). The reason I strayed away from UDPP was because upon the first week of using it, I developed an allergic reaction to it. My eyelids got all red and swollen, and towards the end of the week, the skin started peeling. I was pretty sure its the primer that was doing it but being the silly girl I am, I trucked on and continued to use it because hello, this stuff is pricey (even though Sephora has a pretty darn good return policy which I wasn't aware of back then). So after a month of using it, I guess my eyes got use to it and I no longer got reactions.
After finishing that bottle, I attempted to try TFSI because those two are the top primers in the makeup world. I liked it. It did it's job and it's a little more oily than UDPP which didn't help or bother me. Now that I've finished TFSI, I repurchased UDPP to see if I would go through the whole process again. To my surprise, no reaction! And I have to say, after using TFSI and UDPP, it seems to me like UDPP actually makes my eyeshadows
slightly more vibrant. I noticed it with my purple shadows when I applied it all over my lid. Maybe that's just me but I'm very happy to be back with UDPP. And can I just say, I'm soooooo glad they changed the packaging to a squeeze tube.
Here's my Halloween costume. I was Alice three-four years ago and I thought I'd bring it back. Although I do wish I had kept my blonde until Halloween was over just to complete the look.
Flower cosmetics finally came to Canada. I picked up the stick foundation in a darker shade for a on-the-go contour and the cream shadow in Orchid-ing Around. Both products are just okay. I wish the stick foundation came in a more cool-toned shade, and I wish the cream shadow didn't sheer out so much. The texture is so bizarre and not what I was expecting. I wish both products were more long lasting, even with primer and powder.
Red cups are back at Starbucks! It's so exciting, isn't it? Winter drinks are back which means my favourite Peppermint Mocha is back (although I'm a rebel and have been ordering it before red cups came back). Starbucks also came out with their new holiday collection of cups and tumblers and I must say that I'm liking the designs. I really want to pick one up but I already have one that works just fine :\ Not sure if I can justify being a new one.
The Mabelline Matte lipsticks are finally making their way to Canadian shelves! I've been checking the drugstores every single week and it looks like Walmart are the first to carry them. We don't have a really large selection of colours so I'm waiting it out a little longer to see if they'll restock.
Other than that, I haven't been up to much. It's mostly just school and spending time with my boyfriend. I seem to disappear from social media when I'm around him because I put all my focus and attention on him :)
Oh, and I'm working on two wishlists: a makeup one and a fashion one, so look out for those coming in a couple of days!
