Another year, another birthday and another gift from Sephora! This year, members can choose a gift from either Marc Jacobs or Fresh. I decided to go with the Marc Jacobs set because I have already tried the Fresh Soy Cleanser. The Marc Jacobs gift comes with a deluxe sample of the Highliner Gel Crayon in Blaquer and Le Marc Lip Creme Lipstick in Kiss Kiss Bang Bang. Based on the weight, the Lipstick is worth...
It's been so long since I've gotten a monthly beauty subscription box - I used to love opening these up every month to see what surprise they had in store for me. That was until I realized a lot of items I received weren't suited for me, despite most having a beauty questionnaire. Regardless, I still love the little bit of excitement that comes into opening the box and it's all thanks to my cousin...

Although LUSH products are natural and free of preservatives, I think their face masks are the freshest product because they are made in store. Brazened Honey ($7.95) is no exception and is claimed to be their deepest cleansing mask. I was lucky enough to witness this mask be made before my eyes at the LUSH Factory Tour. The eggs and honey in this mask soften the skin, lime oil brightens, spices warm the skin and ground...
It hasn't been long since Jaclyn Hill and BECCA collaborated to create the Champagne Pop highlighter. Now they're taking it one step further and made some pretty sweet limited edition items: I managed to snag a face palette and it's absolutely beautiful. The packaging itself is stunning and so aesthetically pleasing with a gold and white case. The contents of the palette include:Rose Spritz - shimmery rose pink Amaretto - matte hazlenut brown Pamplemousse -...
Summer is here! And that means a whole lotta sun and outdoor activities! I'm personally working outside this Summer and thankfully I don't have to worry about getting sunburnt with the Sunthera3 Sheer Lotion with SPF 50. Yupp, that's right, SPF 50! This lotion is water/sweat resistant, hypoallergenic, oil free and instantly dries. I first tried this on a trip to Canada's Wonderland and applied the Sunthera3 lotion all over my face and body. Typically,...
The last perfume in the Dave Lackie x Cityline swag bag is Chloe’s Chloe Eau de Parfum (1 fl oz / $80). Chloe comes in a pleated rectangular bottle with a nude colour bow on top that screams sophisticated. This scent has notes of pink peony, freesia, lychee, magnolia flower, lily of the valley, rose, cedar wood, amber and honey. Chloe is literally the scent of a fresh bouquet of flowers - but like nice...
Maybelline had a booth at TFW where they were giving out their new (but not so new anymore) Vivid Matte Liquid Lipsticks. I got the colour Berry Boost which is a pretty accurate name for the muted bright raspberry colour. The lipstick applies nicely and is quite pigmented but it's texture leaves it feeling more like a lipgloss. It doesn't apply opaque like the NYX liquid lipsticks, so the application will need some evening out. The lipstick...
At the L'Oreal Warehouse Sale earlier this year, I managed to snag the infamous Bikini So Teeny by Essie. Truthfully, I was kind of disappointed in the polish - it's a beautiful colour but the application is quite sheer and streaky. Here are 4 coats applied to my nails and it took 2 attempts at it because I got impatient and smudged it the first time #nailpolishproblems. How many nail polish coats is your limit? ...
