While *trying* to complete the Finish 5 by Fall challenge, I realized how hard it was to finish a product. This month, I decided to focus on samples I have laying around, which I have a TON of! I managed to finish a couple samples, but will try to work through my stash - this will be my challenge for Winter. Instead of posting a verdict post - I can't imagine posting a verdict with...
A couple weeks ago, I managed to snag Tarte's ParkAve Princess Palette from Sephora for $31! (Among other things I will be reviewing soon, yay!). I'm finally hopping on the contouring bandwagon and thought this would be a great place and palette to start with. The palette comes with: Park Ave Princess - a matte, milk chocolate brown bronzer Posh - a matte, dusty rose blush Champagne Gold - a shimmery highlighter To be honest,...
Hello readers of Pink Petals! I'm Geneviève from gendots.com and today I am taking over the blog with a CCB guest post with the theme of the month : plum. Let's go right into the makeup look. First I did my base as usual, that day I was using L'Oréal true match lumi in the shade N1-2, Rimmel wake me up concealer and Becca compact concealer in the shade latte the Body shop honey bronzer...
Here's the verdict of my Finish Five by Fall challenge. Thank you again to Angela of Raincouver Beauty for tagging me in this challenge! Verdict: 1. Covergirl Clean Oil Control Pressed Powder - TOSS: This tag has made me realize how badly my skin would break out using this pressed powder. 2. Maybelline Great Lash Mascara - TOSS: I didn't finish this mascara but I will be tossing it. Not because I don't like the product, I just usually toss my mascaras out every...
Revlon's Roulette Rush is a vibrant scarlet red that goes well with every skin tone. *Sorry for all the Revlon Gel Envy posts, but I am in LOVE with their polishes. Let's be friends! Bloglovin' | Instagram | Twitter ...
Maybelline's Dream Wonder Liquid Touch Foundation (~$9.99) has been much raved about this past year so I decided to try it out myself. Unlike most of Maybelline's liquid foundations, this one has a drop stick to dispense the product. I actually really like this, compared to pouring out the product, because it allows more control. I understand that it doesn't seem hygenic to some, but you can still always pour out the product as well....
The annual Toronto Film Festival turns 40 this year and tuns from September 10th to the 20th. Don't miss out on the fun! The festival has so much to offer! Of course, there is a large selection of movies to watch at various theaters - but this also allows some celebrity sightings for the premieres. Join the AvionVIP Festival Gallery and watch the people responsible for creating these amazing movies walk the red carpet. (I...
Essence has a line of products that are super affordable and this week I've decided to try some of their lip products. I decided to purchase: Sheer Shiny Lipstick - Miss Peach XXXL Shine Lipgloss - True Love Lipliner - In the Nude & Wish Me a Rose The essence lipliners are really creamy, making it easy to apply. They're creamy enough that they don't define cracks/dry lips too much - something I often have - and they...
Revlon's Up The Ante is a beautiful orchid purple which I think is the perfect transition colour form Summer to Fall. Let's be friends! Bloglovin' | Instagram | Twitter ...
I don't know about you, but I loved bubble baths as a kid - actually, I still love them. Growing up, my mom worked until midnight, so I only saw her in the morning before kindergarten. She told me once that one of the other parents would give her a funny look because every time she dropped me off at school, I would say "Bye Mom, see you tomorrow!". Once in a while, I would...
It's a short list, but it's a start! Here are my August empties :) TheFaceShop Real Nature Honey Face Mask - Great sheet mask with tons of serum, plus it's super affordable at around $3. Would I repurchase? Yes Neutrogena All-in-One Make-up Removing Cleansing Wipes - They're effective as far as cleansing wipes go, but I'm not a fan of cleansing wipes in general because you still have to cleanse your face after - so...
