Hi all, so this is my very first beauty haul, not too sure I'm a fan of doing it , only because it might come off the wrong way to some people, and the last thing I want to do is offend anyone even though I don't know them (well at least not yet). I personally enjoy viewing the hauls videos that other people posts but what I noticed is a lot of them would have a little disclaimer at the beginning. As much as a lot of people do enjoy these types of videos there are a lot of other people who do not, and they spew their negativity on the person who spent their time and effort trying to produce these videos for the ones who do enjoy it. Anyway as I mentioned I did a little shopping but I had to actually save up all my items before I can use them, which was a bit hard because when you buy something you would want to use it right away. So I shopped at Sephora, I went there for just two particular items but left with four, which normally happens to me a lot. I did some online shopping (for which I just couldn't resist) from The Shopping Channel. I bought a few items from the IT Cosmetics line. I also shopped online from Sigma, I finally made up my mind on purchasing the Brush Cleaning Spa Gloves after months of debating with myself and I also purchased the eye shadow base in Unveil. I hope you all do enjoy my blog and my videos......bye for now....
IT Cosmetics No-Tug Waterproof Gel Eyeliner in
Black and Brown
These gel eye liner is exactly what they said it would be, No-Tug, Waterproof, it goes on so soft and it actually last a really long time
These Lip Gloss Stains are absolutely beautiful, the first two has some shimmer that would reflect light and the naturally flushed is another beautiful shade it's more on the nude side, all three are gorgeous and they actually do work like a stain, I had the pleasure of trying it out and when I removed it after a while my lips did have that natural stain, gorgeous and beautiful.
Nars Eye Shadow in Galapagos
It's a natural deep brown with some serious flecks of gold
I haven't yet tried these oils out. Presently I'm using one called Rose Hip Seed Oil , it's also a Serum, I'm quite content with that one for now but I just wanted to test these ones out to see what all the hype was about , so I can't say anything on these two products.
L'Occitane Dry Skin Foot Cream
Now for this foot cream I just can't say enough things about it. It's been years and years I've been on the hunt for a very good foot cream and finally I discovered this one. I was in love with one that was made by Olay but then they eventually discontinued it, so I was lost for quite a while looking for one that would actually help with my dry cracked heel, so I did my research online and came up with 10 best Foot Creams and this one was on that list but there was another one it's by Burt's Bees and I tried that one first and was totally not happy , this on the other hand I would recommend this one to anyone with dry cracked heels (like mines).

Hi guys, welcome back to my blog, so it's been quite a while since I last posted on here. As I mentioned in my very first blog when the winter is here I will not be taking lots of photos because I don't have too many places to go to, but as soon as the spring comes around that'll be a different story. So as I mentioned in my video I was watching the Golden Globes award show and I fell in love with all the makeup looks that all the stars were wearing. I was meant to do this video sooner but that just didn't happen, so I'm finally getting it done today, some would say this is a spin on the classic red lips but I would say it's a bit more modern, I hope you enjoy my Golden Globe Award makeup look, I'll definitely be watching all the other award shows and maybe do some more makeup looks, hope you all do enjoy my blog and my makeup video.....sorry for the quality of the photos, have no idea why that happened....bye for now....

Hi guys, so today I eventually decided to try out the makeup look that Penelope Cruz had on on the Nespresso commercial made years ago, everytime I saw that commercial I always like looking at her eyes trying to figure out the right shades of color and how the look was created , I know that my attempt at it wasn't even close to it but...hey....it was worth a shot... I now know that I should've used a darker color for the winged part instead of Crave from Urban Decay. I think if I had used a black eye shadow the look would've probably look more like it....anyway next time....so I guess you can call this look another makeup look....anyway enjoy what I have posted until I decide if to redeem myself or just leave it as it is.....anyway.....until my next blog......

Hi guys, so this does look like a lot of products was used just to accomplish a no makeup makeup look but doing a no makeup makeup look for me is a bit tricky, only because as you saw in my video I do have some really dark under eye circle, so in order for me to hide those I obviously have to use my concealer which do seem like using unnecessary products but I wanted a really smooth, flawless look without having those dark circle showing. I wouldn't recommend using the Hourglass Immaculate Liquid Powder under your eye area only because it settles into fine lines and wrinkles and makes them even more noticeable so for that I used my concealer and I would also skip the setting powder when using the Hourglass Immaculate Liquid Powder because when blended into the skin you get a nice powdered and mattifying finish. As I mentioned in the description bar on my video using a face highlighter is totally optional...I just love my Luminous Lighting Powder. Anyway here's some photos of all the products and a list of the brushes used, and I do hope you enjoy my blog and my video.....until my next blog......

Hi guys, as I mentioned in my introduction blog when the weather is getting cold or when winter is actually here my fashion blog will be to a minimum only because my attire is mostly black or grey or just not enough colors....you know what I mean....this cold weather just makes everything in your life so down ..... you don't feel like going out because it's cold.....but yet still five days a week I have to get up and head out....cold or not, but I certainly can't let that keep me back or affect my everyday life living in Canada, I guess I have to get used to it, so today I had a planned outing with my kids, went shopping to one of my favorite stores....Sephora....I had to get my share of the VIB 20% off. I had my eyes on a lot of stuff so I was waiting patiently for the sale to start, and I did get my hands on all the stuff I wanted and more except for one which was all sold out....can't believe how beauty crazy people are....haha.....but then again so am I.I guess you can say I eat, sleep and dream about makeup, but that's ok it's just my hobby, I love playing with makeup and trying out new beauty products....so before this blog gets a bit lengthy and senseless let me just get right to it.....this is my outfit that I wore today, not like it's all that or anything, but just had to share....and mind you it was cold out and I braced the cold just to get a photo of my outfit including the shoes this time...anyway hope you guys enjoy.....until my next blog....
as I mentioned in one of my summer fashion blog I just love details
and this sweater had all of that ....
so here I'm acting as if I'm not cold at all
Sweater (Forever 21), Jeans and Booties (Old Navy)
Hi guys, so here's another one of my many looks that I love creating, sorry but the photos on the blog and my you tube video just doesn't look right but these same photos looks so good on my camera, don't know why, but anyway this look I would definitely wear around the Christmas holiday season because it's not a look I would wear casually....I would definitely pop on some false eye lashes as well, just so your eyes would stand out more.
