Recent non-bookish favourites

I really wanted to do a favourites post, so I did lol. Mainly because I've been listening to a lot of good music and watching good tv shows and procrastinating doing school. And I wanted to share them! Also, I'm super busy with school the first two weeks of April, so I'll be a little …

Mascara Monday: L’Oreal Lash Paradise

4.5/5 stars I had heard so many things about this mascara on youtube that I had to pick it up and oh my goodness you guys, it's totally worth the hype. Basically this is supposed to be a dupe of Too Faced's Better Than Sex mascara, which everyone seems to love. I've only used a …

Makeup Monday: three underrated beauty products

It feels like it's been a while since I did a Makeup Monday. I haven't really been trying anything new, but there is a new Mascara Monday coming up soon, so be excited for that! This week I thought I'd do three beauty products I think are underrated. These are just my opinions, but I …

Recent favourites

It’s been a while since I did a favourites post, so I thought I’d do one of my spring/beginning of summer favourites. Beauty Sephora eyeshadow in the colour 288, carousel This colour is a pretty shimmery raspberry shade. I really like it. It's super easy to blend, and I like how it looks blended with …

Makeup Monday: Tartiest glossy lip paint

So I got this lip gloss for Christmas in this lovely berry shade that’s definitely right up my alley. Except for the fact that I hate lip gloss. I have literally never found a lip gloss that I enjoy.

Mascara Monday: Urban Decay Perversion Mascara

First Impressions I’ve worn this mascara a couple times, but always while wearing eyeshadow or eyeliner, so today is my first day wearing it alone. It’s pretty darn good. I like the brush; it’s massive and has brush bristles (rather than plastic), which makes it easy to apply lots of mascara. It doesn’t curl my …

Makeup Monday: Cake ‘do gooder volumizing dry shampoo spray

 2/5 stars I got this because my hair gets greasy very easily, and I’m trying to limit the number of times per week I wash it. So I thought getting a dry shampoo would be good for those days when it’s greasy but I’m not ready to shower. I try to only use beauty products …

Makeup Monday – Burt’s Bees Rose Water toner

So I’m pretty new to the toner world. I didn’t use it at all throughout high school and only started in first year. So I’ve just been trying new ones to see what I like. I recently (ish) finished using the Burt’s Bees Rose Water toner and thought I’d do a review compared to my …

Mascara Monday – Clinique Lash Power

So this mascara is an interesting concept. There’s three levels and to switch between them, you twist the barrel of the mascara. The levels are depending on how much volume you want. I’ve all the levels and will say there is definitely a big difference. I did not like the lowest level at all. I just …

Makeup Monday: Tarte Clay Eyeliner

First impressions I should preface this by saying that I rarely use eyeliner. The only one I’ve used recently is one from Buxom, so that’s what I’ll be comparing to. But I really like this eyeliner so far. It went on so easily and smoothly. It’s really pretty and sparkly, without being overly sparkly. It …

Winter beauty and skincare staples

So I live in Alberta, which is pretty effing cold. For the past month-ish, it’s been well below -10 celsius and has finally just warmed up. And this cold means that my skin has been not so great. It’s been dry AF for a while now. So I thought I’d write a post on my …
