Exciting news!
Good afternoon! So I have successfully completed my first 3 days of my new job at Mac! It's been another very busy week with trying to juggle 2 jobs and also trying to celebrate Halloween! As for the Mac job I am loving it! It's a very hectic job and you are literally doing 10 things at once but when I get the chance to do a makeup application on a client I am so happy! I will keep you all up to date on some of the things to come with the job but for now there's nothing much more to add :) hope you are all enjoying your week! I know here in Toronto the weather has been terrible because of hurricane sandy but I hope everyone is safe and can try to enjoy the final days of October!

Bath and Body Works Candle haul!
Good evening my lovely readers! I thankfully got to enjoy a couple of days off of my two jobs to relax! Now of my versions of relaxing is shopping! Haha no surprise! So although I did splurge on some candles I did also buy a couple of other things I did need. I bought a black belt and some black flats with some gold details from the jcrew factory, a pair of patterned tights from h&m and lastly a workout top and sweater from the gap outlet! Now for the bigger purchase I made! I had to stop by BBW (bath and body works) of course to do some last minute stocking up on my favourite fall candles and some others I love! So here is the list with the names! In the 3 wick I bought lavender vanilla, leaves, cider lane, and vanilla snowflake! In the small candles I bought cinnamon sugared donut, pumpkin carving, pumpkin cupcake, autumn day, and French baguette! I mentioned leaves and cinnamon sugared donut and pumpkin carving before. So I will talk a little about the other scents! Lavender vanilla smells exactly like the name, no need to further explain haha. Cider lane to me has an apple and Carmel scent but is a little heavier on the apple with just a hint of caramel! Yum. Vanilla snowflake to me smells like vanilla with a hit of coconut! Pumpkin carving is just a sweet pumpkin scent! Autumn day smells like apple and maybe a hint of mint?! But when I had my nonna smell it she said it reminded her of a cigar! Haha. Lastly, French baguette! It is exactly what the name says, it's as if you are walking into a bread shop and the smell of fresh French bread is lingering all throughout the bakery! So delicious! So that is everything I have bought lately! What are your favourite scents from bath and body works?

Fall time🍂
Good evening! As many of you may not know I live in Canada. Around this time of the year fall turns into a cold winter pretty quickly! So unfortunately fall doesn't last too long. However the last few weeks have been absolutely Devine! The beginning of October was thanksgiving and thankfully the day was beautiful! The sun was shinning and the turkey was delicious! After thanksgiving there was a week that was freezing! But this week was stunning :) I will include some pictures of the walks I took with my puppy because I just love the trees this time of year! I also put my puppies pumpkin costume on a little early just to take some photos with the pumpkins :)
What's your favourite thing about fall?
Hope to talk to you soon!

Body shop haul!
Good evening all! So today was a very long day at work but since I have a couple of min of down time I decided to blog about some of the recent purchases I made at the body shop! Since its the winter time I feel my skin getting at lot rougher and drier! The body shop has amazing body butters and seeing as they have a sale going on I decided to make some purchases! So I bought 2 body butters and 1 body scrub! It was buy 2 get one free, and I believe they were all 19$ each. I got a Shea body butter and a chocomania in both the body butter and scrub! They both smell amazing, especially the chocolate scented one! When you mix the scrub and body butter together it's VERY moisturizing! I highly recommend all these products!

Time flies!
Wow! I want to apologize for my lack of blogging the last couple of months! Things have been uber crazy in my world, both work and personal! In one of my previous blogs I mentioned my excitement about an interview with mac cosmetics! Well two interviews and two months later I was offered the job! My first day starts next week along with my first training day! Now along with that, I have also been working crazy hours at my other job at the bay! I'm hoping to get into the swing of things again because I love blogging about the things I love! This is my favourite time of the year and its a shame I haven't been able to blog about it yet! I have a few reviews and hauls coming up so keep on the look out for them!
Hope to talk to you soon!

Mac style seeker blush review/bath and body works fall candles!
Good evening everyone! Not too long ago I was out and about not intending on making any purchases! That idea didn't really work haha. So I made a quick stop to Mac and to bath and body works! Two of my favourite stores in one day!
From Mac I purchased the blush supercontinental which is just a peachy coloured blush. At first when I saw I was a little iffy about how the colour would look on my skin, but when the artist applied it on me I just fell in love! I had to buy it! Pictures of the blush will be below! However if you get a chance to see it in stores please do before they sell out! Now what I have noticed about this blush is that it has fall out in the pan when you swoosh your blush in it, so some pigment may fly around a little! This however does not effect the actual blush itself and is perfectly fine!
Now for bath and body works, I purchased three of the small candles because they were on sale 3 for 20$! The three scents I purchased were nutmeg and spice, pumpkin cupcake, and leaves! I had a chance to light leaves today and it gave my room a warm scent of cinnamon apple cider! It reminds me of Christmas tree shopping at the lot we go to with my family :) nutmeg and spice smells like a chai latte made with soy milk (yes I feel the soy makes it smell different! Haha) from Starbucks but with a hint of vanilla! Lastly is pumpkin cupcake which smells identical to what you would think a pumpkin cupcake would smell like! It has a hint of extra cinnamon but is not too strong for my liking. So just imagine a pumpkin pie in the same room as fresh made cupcakes!
I just adore the smells of fall because they remind me of amazing memories throughout the fall and winter seasons! Anyone else have candles remind you of special memories?
