For the love of Kajal

I sometimes believe that kajal is a godsend for us gals that need a sparkle in our eyes to make our face pop. I usually look to golden years of bollywood actresses in how I can revamp my look to make it different. I feel like they really took that liner and got very creative with them!  Here are some of my inspirations. Enjoy!

Her saddness is clearly not from her eye liner being on Fleek!

3 steps to wonderful

Got dash? It’s cool, here is my go-to look that works every time.

Sephora CC Eye-Cream Concealer. A quick dab under the eyes and on any spots you see that might need help, and that’s all you need.

L’Oreal Silk Eye Linear in Cobalt Blue. The number of times I have mentioned this product might make you wonder whether I’m being sponsored. LOL as if I’m that cool to be sponsored. Anyways, when you are low on time, using black can be a nightmare, esp if it ends up smugly. Avoid the hassle and go for a deep blue. You will still look polished and fresh.

Clinique High Impact Mascara. A wipe or two is all you need to make them eye-balls pop! With the attention on your wonderful eyes, ain’t nobody noticing how you didn’t button your shirt properly!

Review: Burt’s Bees Lemon Butter Cuticle Creme

IMG_6510

Confession time: my nails are dry as a dessert. No matter how many times I put lotion on, my hands and nails find a way to get dry. It might be from constantly washing my hands or doing house work, but there it is. It’s especially worse when you have the coolest shades of nail polish on but your cuticles look like an old lady at a Florida Retirement house. I take that back, that old lady probably has more moisturized hands than I do.

What’s a girl to do? Try the Burt’s Bees Lemon Butter Cuticle Creme.

Oh Sonia Kachuk

With Target closing down in Canada, I figured this might be my chance to score some Sonia Kachuk items for cheap. Even though I’m on a makeup cleanse (lol I don’t think this is ever possible, but I’m trying!) I figured this is too good a chance to pass up!

Off I went to shop! So far, I am loving the products I purchased!  Continue reading

Beauty Standards

f3aab165eb5e4fc2915c649a948617c1

The media and pop culture can critical in terms of showcasing what the ideal beauty standards should be and what women in general should look like. I found that these videos really help in highlighting that although we look at magazines and hope for that standard, we need to realize that we are the standard. You, with your dimples and all are the beauty standard.  Continue reading

Gatsby Dots

This week is inspired by the polish by Marc Jacobs, though I would have a look whilst exploring Sephora.

IMG_1928_FotorI really liked how the finish is on the rose gold pink colour, it’s called Gatsby. I added a dash of the purple to change things up with some  dots.

Dots are always fun 🙂

The formula for the Marc Jacobs nail polish are amazing! Then again, they are 22$ a pop, so no wonder! This would def be a treat yourself item!

Feb-u-blues

This Sunday is inspired by the lack of spring in my part of the world where it seems that winter has never left. It constantly feels like Winter is Coming 😐 As much as I love Game of Thrones, I didn’t think Canada was a part of the wonderful GoT world. Does this mean Dragons exist? hmm lol Pardon the rough finish, I fail at painting my left hand I got lazy with recreating a floral design, or instead glitter. I hold a stapler because I can and it helps with keeping my textbook open as I type notes lol Continue reading
