Guerlain L’Or Radiance Concentrate

Happy Monday everyone! I thought I would start this week off with a little review of something I am absolutely in love with. This is something I put off buying for months and months before I finally jumped right in and I am so glad I did. The Guerlain L’Or Radiance Concentrate with Pure Gold is a primer that I told myself I could not justify spending the money on for so long. After months of…

Hey everybody! Its been a while! I had some free time since I am not stuck at work or studying so I jumped on the chance to write another blog post! Today I thought I would share with you the best mask that Lush sells (in my opinion). I have been in love with Mask of Manaminty for quite some time and I may have featured it in a post when I had just started blogging, but I honestly can’t remember.…

Have you ever walked through Sephora thinking “Wow, why is skincare so expensive? I wish there was something more affordable that worked like these high end products..”. I know I have. Something I seriously struggle with is running out of a moisturizer that I paid close to $40 for and hoping that there will be a deal with points or hoping the specific brands website will have a sale on, because I…

Dr. Hauschka Firming Mask Review

Hey everyone! Todays post is a review on the Dr. Hauschka Firming Mask. Im gonna jump right in for this one and tell you its a game changer right away! I have always loved Dr. Hauschka products, but I had never tried any of their masks before this one and I am honestly so impressed. I have loved every product I have tried from this brand and this one is no different. It has a gorgeous natural…

Hey guys! Its been a while since I posted anything that wasn’t makeup or skincare related. I thought I would pop in today to update you on whats going on in my life and share some exciting news as well! If you don’t have a dog (or don’t have a high maintenance dog) then you won’t know just how much time they take up. My dog is a super stubborn and nervous rescue. So we do a whole lot of training.…

Origins Mini Mask Set

I’ve always been a fan of Winners, but each time I go there I always find another reason to love it even more. My latest find was one that seriously amazed me with how great of a deal it was. If you don’t have a Winners in your area and don’t know what it is, its basically a store that ends up with things that may have a small flaw in packaging or something another store couldn’t sell that ends…

Why I Love Origins Moisturizers

Hello again everyone! Today I thought I would share with you why I am so in love with Origins moisturizers. At the moment I own three different Origins moisturizers including 2 for daytime use and 1 night cream. The two daytime moisturizers I have are both used on different days depending on how my skin feels and what level of moisture I feel I need. I have very dry skin that can be quite…

My Go-To Summer Moisturizer

Has anyone else struggled with finding a facial moisturizer with SPF that isn’t too thick, doesn’t smell like sunscreen, and sinks into the skin quickly? I was never able to find a perfect product and always ended up having to layer sunscreen on top which I seriously hated the feeling of. About a year or two ago, I honestly can’t remember, I found the perfect product. I have raved about this…

Road Trip Part 6: Banff and Jasper

Hello again! Today I thought I would share with you the very last part of our road trip. We enjoyed our time at Square Butte Ranch so much and we were very sad to leave, but we still had to make it all the way to Jasper with minimal stops in between each place so we headed on our way. We reluctantly left the beautiful green rolling hills filled with cattle to the highway. The highway still has…

Road Trip Part 5: Bragg Creek

Hey everyone! Today I thought I would share another little piece of our road trip with you. This was by far my favourite part and I am so happy we got to stop off and visit my Aunt and Uncle for a couple days. Upon arriving in Bragg Creek I immediately fell in love. It looks exactly like an old school western town and I honestly wish I could have stayed longer to explore. After stopping for lunch…

Hey guys! Sorry I didn’t get any posts out last week. I was super busy with work, and honestly I really wasn’t in a great mood so I figured it wouldn’t be a great time to write anything. This week though I have a Sephora haul to share with you! I also picked up a few drugstore bits as well so I thought I would share those too. Keep reading if you’d like to see what I got! I’ve picked up most of…

Road Trip Part 4: Moraine Lake and Lake Louise

Hi again everyone! Today I thought I would share another part of our road trip with you. This was the part we were looking forward to the most, however we weren’t as impressed as we thought we would be. Lake Louise was the base destination for our trip. We were so excited to see the stunning blue/green water and the incredible mountains surrounding it. Apparently we went a little too early in the…

Too Faced Chocolate Bar Palette Review

Hello again friends! Hope you all are doing well. I have been absolutely head over heels for this palette from Too Faced lately, so I thought I would finally do a review for you all! I have had this for about a year and a half, so I really should have reviewed it quite a while ago, but I have only now just fallen completely in love with it. (more…)

Road Trip Part 3: Wapta Falls

Hello again! If you haven’t been following these road trip posts, then this is basically a giant blog post split into different parts so that you aren’t reading for an hour. If you are interested in my road trip across BC and Alberta then I would suggest taking a look at the other two posts as well! On our way to Lake Louise we decided to stop at a fairly well known spot called Wapta Falls. It is…

Makeup of the Day

Hey guys! I post makeup of the day posts on my Instagram all the time, but I’ve never actually done a blog post about it! Today I figured I would throw together a little post showing you what I wore on my face today. (more…)

Cake Satin Sugar Dry Shampoo Review

Hello again everyone! For all of you waiting for the beauty posts to come back you’re in luck! I thought that I should probably split up the road trip posts for those of you who aren’t interested and put up a nice little beauty product review. I believe I mentioned this product on the blog a long time ago, however I thought I would do an updated review and let you know how I am feeling about this…
