Goodies #1

Hey Everyone,

I hope you are all having a wonderful beginning to your week! I wanted to do a quick post of some goodies that I picked up from the States when I last visited. First I just wanted to say that not all drugstores carry the same makeup brands (here and even the US). I know for sure that NYX cosmetics are only found at Rexall Pharmaplus stores in case anyone was wondering (I actually saw some at Pacific Mall that were double priced don't be fooled ladies). Trust me NYX has some really epic blushes and eyeshadow palletes + pencils. Do try them out and Ill do blog post on some of their stuff that I love aswell.

Anywho when I went to the states I asked my lovely hubby to stop by RiteAid. Its a typical drugstore there, and I wanted to go ONLY because I knew that I would find Jesse's Girls cosmetics there. Recently a youtube guru by the name JuileG came out with a nail polish line for the company so I got three of those. I also picked up two of their loose pigments which are AMAZING!


I have some swatches below incase anyone is interested. If you have tried any of these products do let me know your feedback :) 







On the left they were applied wet with fix+ from Mac and on the right they were applied with no base! Either way they look amazing

OOTD for the week


Hey Everyone,

I hope all of you had a wonderful weekend. Mine was really fun because my hubby surprised me with a getaway for the weekend to the states for our one year anniversary (early). I cant believe its already been a year, time really flew! Anywho I wanted to post for you some of my outfits of the week. I noticed the weather is really starting to heat up and even though there isn't much sun....its just mucky heat! I needed to wear something that would be lightweight fabric to prevent burning up. The shirt dress that I got from H&M are a total steal at only $14 check them out girls! There are so many colours I have atleast 4 in my closet ;)

Love it or Leave it #3

Hey Everyone,

Its been a while since I did my last love it or leave it post so I thought I would let you guys know about some products that I have been trying. Instead of doing one product per post, I am going to combine a couple so that its much more informative in one post.

For starters I noticed that since the weather got warmer my hair has been going CRAY! I mean frizzy and oily not to mention falling :( I was watching TV a couple of weeks back and saw the commercial for Loreal Arginine Resist X3  and I really wanted to try it. I purchased the line to try all the products in sync and trust me Ive been LOVING IT. I would defiantly recommend this products. Ive been using the shampoo and conditioner for 2 months and the rest of the products its only been about a month.

I usually just shower with the shampoo and conditioner 2-3 times a week because my hair is long. Washing more frequently can actually damage your hair and strip away essential oils from your hair thus making it even more oily to replenish itself. Then once a week I will use the hair mask. The hair mask is really cooling you can feel it working on your scalp right away. It leaves your hair feeling so soft and smooth. After I towel dry my hair I use the reinforcing spray to protect my hair further more. I have seen much improvement in my hair and maybe 2 months later ill post another update.

 Do leave your thoughts and comments on if you tried these products out (I am not being compensated for my review all my thoughts are solely based on my opinion). I love hearing how people are taking care of their hair. Being a woman who covers her hair, I noticed we have to take EXTRA care of our hair and any and all tips help.






Next on the list if the Loreal Falseies Mascara. Since the I opened and used this Mascara it has been the worst ever! The formulation was just a mess. At first when I used it a couple if times it was a really wet formula that would get everywhere after blinking but when it dried it would flake all over my face during the day. I left it unused after I opened it for a week. However that didn't help at all (assuming that drying it out would be better) instead the formulation was flaking halfway through the day worse than before. I realized that at work I would check the mirror and there would be mascara flakes on the top of my cheekbones. I would not recommend this mascara to anyone however my review is kind of late and I am sure some of you probably already wasted a bit of money on it. Instead do check out my review on my mascaras that I love. My number one is always the Loreal Telescopic, It never fails me :)

Have a happy Wednesday everyone.
