Maybelline Volum' Express The Falsies Mascara

I have a confession. I am guilty of being a mascara snob. I know that many people say that there are great mascaras at the drugstore, but long, thick lashes are my favourite part of a makeup look and I've always had such great results from the high end products that I use. Some of my favourites are Benefit Bad Gal Lash, Lancome Hypnose Drama, Make Up For Ever Smokey Lash, and Diorshow Maximizer. However, I have to admit that I have become a fan of this Maybelline mascara!

The Liebster Award

First of all I want to thank Erin for the nomination for the Liebster Award. If you haven't already you NEED to check out her blog! http://petiteerin.blogspot.com. She has a bunch of really great posts that are always fun to read! 

That Kylie Jenner Lip

I have Eleventh Gorgeous to thank for my latest obsession with this product. Like almost everyone else, I have been obsessed with the 'Kylie Jenner lip.' Kylie has totally brought back that hot 90s lip color, a mauvey brown shade that seems to look great on many skin tones! Kylie is said to wear Soar or Whirl Lip liner, and there's all sorts of speculation to the lipsticks that she wears. I don't have a MAC store near me, so luckily I came across Eleventh Gorgeous' video about drugstore dupes for the Kylie lip, and one mentioned was this Rimmel lip color. 

What's in my Bag?

What's in my Bag videos are some of my favourites to watch on YouTube. Even though I don't make videos I thought it might be fun to give you a little glimpse of what is in my bag. I am pretty boring in that I use the same bag everyday for months and months on end. I have been using my Rebecca Minkoff Mini Mac bag since well before the Summer. I have the black leather bag with silver hardware and I love it! At first I was worried it was too small but I've learned to downsize and now I love carrying a small purse! Keep reading to see what I carry with me in my bag. 

My Everyday MAC Palette

I used to have quite the addiction to eyeshadow. I had to have every new palette that came out, and had a drawer full of palettes and shadows that I never even used. These days I am much more minimalistic when it comes to my everyday makeup routine. One of the things that has changed is that I bought a 4 pan MAC palette to put my most used shadows in. I have one of the larger palettes but found that i didn't pull it out very much before. Now with the smaller palette its much more convenient and I use it almost every day!

LUSH So White Shower Gel & Yog Nog Soap

LUSH recently released their holiday collections, and I did a big haul of bath bombs, bubble bars, and this soap and shower gel. The bath bomb and bubble bar post will come later once i I have used everything, but I have been able to try these two products so thought I would give you my review!

My Favourite Beauty Bloggers/YouTubers

 

A lot of the inspiration to start up this blog came from watching YouTube videos and reading blog posts from other bloggers and YouTubers. While I'm not yet brave enough to post videos, I am super glad I decided to start my blog! I have learned pretty much everything I know about makeup and beauty from these blogs and videos, and their recommendations on many products have led me to find many holy grail items. While i do watch and read a lot of different people, these are my favourites that I always need to keep up to date with. It's nice because I not only learn about beauty, but they also post lifestyle, DIY, and other posts that I love as well! I hope that if you haven't checked these ladies out that you will click on their info. I'll bet you love them as much as I do!
