Revlon review!

Good afternoon!
As you may know from one of my last blogs, I had asked one of my friends who was going to NYC last weekend to pick me up the revlon just bitten kissable balm stains! She could only get her hands on two of the ones I asked for but none the less I'm glad I got them! Unfortunately in Canada they still have yet to come out so that's why I was really excited about them!
The two colours she got me are honey and smitten! Honey being the lighter peachy colour and smitten being the darker pink colour!
First off when I swatched them on my hand, I loved the colour payoff and how moisturizing they were! However one thing I didn't like about them was the scent. Now in the revlon lip butters they don't have a scent which is fine (however I do go crazy for those fruity scents!) however in the just bitten balm stains they smell like plastic! Yuk. Now I'm still going to use them because I think the colour is great and they are very moisturizing when you put them on, but after about 30 min the moisture went away. I don't believe that they are meant to be as moisturizing as much as they are supposed to have the colour last a long time. So if that doesn't bother you then this product will be great! If you want a stain you can simply apply the balm stain and then apply a clear moisturizer because it does tend to dry on the lips after a while.
I also want to mention that when I applied it to my lips, it gave a little bit of a tingling sensation like a lip plumper would give. But after 5 min that feeling went away.
Hope you found this review helpful and I hope to talk to you soon!

How cute is this!

Good evening!
The past few days have been just crazy busy! For some reason, everyone I know seems to have some sort of gathering going on! On top of that I have been working, so sadly I haven't been able to blog as much as I'd like. However! I have found some time to browse through websites and while I was on forever 21 I found a really cute outfit! I decided to find pieces that were either the same or similar to the outfit I found!
As for my own personal style, it changes quite a lot. Although, if you read the blog Icovetthee, I love love love her style!
So as for this outfit, it does not have anything to do with the blog I mentioned, but I thought it was so cute for wearing casually in the day! I also paired two different shoes that I adore, and two different necklaces depending on style preference!
All the items in the picture are from forever 21 if I forgot to mention it above!
Hope you enjoy!

What I wore

Good afternoon my lovely readers! I have some very exciting news for you all. As some of you may know, I studied cosmetic management in college and graduated last year from the program! Since that Time I have been doing makeup for weddings, events, and small fashion shows! However, I have been searching for a permanent job in the cosmetic industry working for a company! (now here is the exciting part) I had a interview with mac cosmetics yesterday! *jumping up and down!*
There was 4 girls in the interview, and the manager basically just asked us typical interview questions! This was however my favourite question she asked. "what Is the difference between a makeup artist and a Mac makeup artist?" the 4 of us girls actually all had to take a few seconds to actually think that one through! Haha. Now the manager is going to be calling 3 of the 4 girls back for a second interview of applying makeup next week! *crosses fingers!!!* I will keep you posted about the whole process! Now as for what makeup I wore!
On my face I wore my revlon and my shiseido foundation, along with my ma studio fix powder foundation for a flawless look! As for concealer I wore NYX yellow as a base for my Mac liquid concealer. On my eyes I wore wedge, brule, and charcoal brown! Then I used my benefit liquid liner and did a cat wing. I also applied a set of natural lashes to make my lashes appear fuller! I applied 2 coats of Lancôme doll lash hypnose mascara. On my cheeks I applied bronzer to contour my face and also fleur power blush by Mac! For lips I applied new York apple and desire for some dimension :) wow! Thats a lot of makeup! Haha
Hope you are all having a fabulous TGIF! :)
Hope to talk to you soon,

Port credit

Good evening my lovely readers! It feels like today has been taking forever to get by! But I finally finished work for today and now I get to relax before going out with some friends to demetres! I wanted to mention this beautiful place called port credit that I went to last night with one of my friends. It was so pretty! We first got some ice cream ( I went for 2 scoops just for fun haha) and then I drove to the port. We just walked around but it was really pretty, especially at night with all the lights on! Anyways my friend is going to be going to NYC this weekend so I have asked her to pick up some makeup items that are currently not selling in canada at the moment so I'm excited to review those for you next week!
Wishing you all a happy seniors day Tuesday!
Hope to talk to you soon!

One of those days

Why hello there my beautiful readers! I was relaxing in my room as I thought why not blog a little? I was very fortunate to have this long weekend off from work so I had a lot of down time to relax and spend time with the family! Today I did a couple of errands with my mum and sister and then watched the Olympics for the rest of the day! I am currently listening to some lovely French classical music while reading one day by David Nicholls, drinking out of my favourite mug and have my new favourite candle lit. You may ask can it get any better than this? I have to admit, I have been a little sad about not being able to travel at the moment (one of my most favourite things to do) however, being in my room and enjoying some of the other little things I love does make it pretty great. It's just one of those days I feel at peace truthfully, which is nice to hear because I haven't felt like This in a while! I hope everyone had a fantastic weekend and may the rest of your week be just as fantastic if not more :)
Hope to talk to you soon!

Bath and body works fall candles!!

Hooray! As you probably already now from the title of my blog, bath and body works have released some of their fall scents. I wait all year round for the fall and winter scents because I prefer the sweeter more sugary food scents. I went on my break and bought two small candles for 2 for 5$. Amazing price! I didn't buy the three wick candles because it was 2 for 30$. So I will just wait for the better 3 wick candle sales. I'll post pictures of the scents if you want to check them out in your next visit to bath and body works! I definitely recommend you go and smell them! :)
Hope to talk to you soon!
