<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">COVERGIRL Exhibitionist Mascara claims that it is a volumizing
mascara, lashes are full and defined after only one coat. Get soft lashes with
no flaking or smudging. Vegan. </span></div>

<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I received the COVERGIRL Exhibitionist Mascara 800 Very
Black in my May Topbox (Canadian beauty subscription).. I have so many mascaras
to try right now but I pulled this one out to try first because the brush caught
my attention. It has an hourglass shape similar to Too Faced Better Than Sex
and L’Oreal LashParadise mascaras. It even has the slightly thicker viscosity
the Too Faced and L’Oreal mascaras have. The COVERGIRL Exhibitionist mascara also
has a drier formula.</span></div>

<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I have short sparse and straight lashes. So I <s>want</s>
need a great mascara to give volume, length and hold a curl. Basically it has PERFORM. </span></div>

<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I have only used this for two days so far and while I
think the COVERGIRL Exhibitionist mascara gives me great volume, it doesn’t
give me as much lengthening as say the Too Faced mascara does. On its own the COVERGIRL
Exhibitionist Mascara held a curl as long as I curled them beforehand. I did
give my lashes another curl after I took this photo to bump up the curl factor
and it is still holding well. </span></div>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">
</span><br />
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">The COVERGIRL Exhibitionist Mascara does live up to it
claims of being volumizing and defining while still looking soft. I did notice
clumping on the third coat so try to stick to two coats if you can.
The hourglass shaped brush does give me some difficulties on my lower lashes as
you can see. I seemed to have missed the middle lashes! Duh. I usually use a
different mascara with a smaller brush for my lower lashes but I wanted to see
if it smudged at all during the day. It did not nor did I see any flaking? </span></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I find the COVERGIRL Exhibitionist Mascara less clumping
than the L’Oreal LashParadise but the LashParadise has an edge with the lengthening
factor. But the L’Oreal LashParadise also seems to dry out really fast for me.
I only seem to get a months use out of it before it gets too dry for me to
want to continue using. Let’s see how the COVERGIRL Exhibitionist Mascara
develops over the next month or so. </span></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">If you like a thick formula slightly on the drier side
mascaras, you will probably like this one too.</span></div>

<span lang="EN" style="mso-ansi-language: EN;"><span style="font-family: "calibri";"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;">I</span> really
wanted to talk about this The Ordinary No Brainer set but Sephora.ca no longer
carries it and for some reason Deciem (The Ordinary parent company) does not
deliver it to my area. Whatever that means! So that is disappointing because if
I were to recommend a set from The Ordinary it would probably be this one.</span></span></span></div>

<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">
<span lang="EN" style="mso-ansi-language: EN;"><span style="font-family: "calibri"; font-size: large;">Since it doesn't seem to be available anymore, I will discuss
what drew me to the set in the first place: the multi-technology peptide serum “Buffet”. </span></span></div>

<span lang="EN" style="mso-ansi-language: EN;"></span><span lang="EN" style="mso-ansi-language: EN;"><span style="font-family: "calibri"; font-size: large;">I initially
tried out the “Buffet” for the first time last year when Sephora began
carrying The Ordinary. I thought for $14.90, I couldn’t be mad if it doesn’t
work.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>But it did work and I used it
every day for 3 months until I ran out. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I
went to order more but by then The Ordinary was no longer carried in Sephora. Plus
every time I went to order it on Well.ca, it was sold out. So I moved on…sadly. </span></span><br />
<span lang="EN" style="mso-ansi-language: EN;"><span style="font-family: "calibri"; font-size: large;">C<span lang="EN" style="mso-ansi-language: EN;"><span style="font-family: "calibri"; font-size: large;"><span lang="EN" style="mso-ansi-language: EN;"><span style="font-family: "calibri"; font-size: large;">ome January
2019, The Ordinary came back in stock online at Sephora. YAY! I immediately
went online to order the “Buffet” but once I saw this 3 piece No Brainer kit that included
the “Buffet”, a retinoid and a HA moisturizer, I chose to upsize my “Buffet” to
this No Brainer full platter. Haha bad pun. </span></span></span></span></span></span><br />
<br />
<span lang="EN" style="mso-ansi-language: EN;"><span style="font-family: "calibri"; font-size: large;"><span lang="EN" style="mso-ansi-language: EN;"><span style="font-family: "calibri"; font-size: large;"><span lang="EN" style="mso-ansi-language: EN;"><span style="font-family: "calibri"; font-size: large;"><span lang="EN" style="mso-ansi-language: EN;"><span lang="EN" style="mso-ansi-language: EN;"><span style="font-family: "calibri"; font-size: large;">I really like
the simplicity of The Ordinary products; the no nonsense let’s get to business
feel of it. Plus the price is right and my bank account really likes that. </span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span><br />

<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri";"><span style="font-size: large;"><span lang="EN" style="mso-ansi-language: EN;">Like the
majority of The Ordinary’s product line, the "Buffet" comes in a 30ml glass
bottle with a pipette. </span><span style="font-family: "calibri";"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "calibri";"><span style="font-size: large;">The <span lang="EN" style="mso-ansi-language: EN;">“Buffet” is</span><span lang="EN"> </span>a thick watery peptide
serum that is almost bordering on being a gel. <span lang="EN" style="mso-ansi-language: EN;">It’s chalked full of peptides complexes, probiotic,
amino acids and hyaluronic acid for a party of anti-aging goodness for your skin
that will help reduce fine lines, wrinkles, dark spots, hydrate, brighten, and improve
texture. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "calibri"; font-size: large;">How I use it: I put a couple drops on my fingers and pat
my hands together and then pat the serum on my face. Once on the skin, it sinks
in pretty fast. I usually only wait 10 seconds before going in with the next
product. I use this on its own in the AM and PM as the first step of my skin
care after cleansing my face. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "calibri"; font-size: large;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "calibri"; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "calibri"; font-size: large;">T<span lang="EN" style="mso-ansi-language: EN;"><span style="font-family: "calibri"; font-size: large;">here is
something about the mix of peptides and Matrixyl 3000 that my normal to dry
dehydrated skin just loves. Immediately, my skin feels soft, supple and my
pores are a bit more minimized. Plus it plays well with other skin care
products. This is such a simple step in my skin care regime but I also think it is one of the important steps that I needed to help my dehydrated skin pop back to life. </span></span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "calibri"; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "calibri"; font-size: large;"><span lang="EN" style="mso-ansi-language: EN;"><span style="font-family: "calibri"; font-size: large;"><span lang="EN" style="mso-ansi-language: EN;"><span style="font-family: "calibri"; font-size: large;"><span lang="EN" style="mso-ansi-language: EN;"><span style="font-family: "calibri"; font-size: large;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Can you tell I am obsessed
with the “Buffet” from The Ordinary?</b> I already have ordered another one as
I am almost out of my second bottle. The “Buffet” has fast become a staple in my
daily skin care regime. </span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "calibri"; font-size: large;">So as I am playing with and loving up my new palette, Naked Reloaded, I
noticed that the shade Burn looked really familiar. I grabbed some of my palettes to
see where I had seen it before. Wasn't I a little surprised to see where the 'dupe' came from. </span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><br />
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri"; font-size: large;">A lot of people compare Urban Decay Naked Reloaded to ABH
Sultry palette or the OG Naked palette but perhaps Naked Reloaded should be compared to its sister
palette, Urban Decay Born to Run.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "calibri"; font-size: large;">When I first started swatching Naked Reloaded, I noticed a familiarity with these shades. Not just Burn but several others looked and felt similar. Born to Run came to mind as I had
just used the that palette that morning. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "calibri"; font-size: large;">It turns out<span style="font-family: "calibri"; font-size: large;"> NR’s Burn and BTR’s Double Life were almost dead on dupes of each other. I
also swatched a few more shades and the similarities are pretty damn close.
Close enough that I started getting a little buyers remorse for picking up the
Naked Reloaded and then <i>I remembered that I essentially got it for free</i> so I can
live with this betrayal.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Just kidding, it wasn’t
a betrayal just a F$@k Me moment.</span></span><br />

you kind of can get something similar effect to BTR Blaze. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "calibri"; font-size: large;"><i>Do you need Naked Reloaded if you already have Born to
Run?</i> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "calibri"; font-size: large;">I’d say no. Almost half the shades are so close to what you can find in the Born to Run palette.
I would say only grabbed it if you really want those coppery metallic shades or really love Urban Decay. </span><br />
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: "calibri"; font-size: large;">Some key players in the Naked Reloaded are already covered
in the Born to Run palette. With some nuance differences, you can probably
create the same looks. In fact I created this look below using the Naked
Reloaded on one eye and Born to Run on the other. Can you tell the difference? </span><br />

<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "calibri";">This past weekend I got my hands on the new Urban Decay
Naked Reloaded palette during the Shoppers Drug Mart redemption event. I had
originally intended to pick up one of the Benefit Cheerleader Cheek palettes
but once I saw Reloaded in my cart it went (essentially for free). </span><span style="mso-char-type: symbol; mso-symbol-font-family: Wingdings;"><span style="font-family: "wingdings"; mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-char-type: symbol; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-symbol-font-family: Wingdings;">J</span></span><span style="font-family: "wingdings"; mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-char-type: symbol; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-symbol-font-family: Wingdings;"></span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><br />
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri"; font-size: large;">It’s hard not to compare the Reloaded to the original OG
Naked palette. But they are not the same palettes at all. The original Naked
was cool toned and more brassy while the Naked Reloaded is a warmer rosier neutral
palette. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "calibri"; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri"; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "calibri"; font-size: large;">What drew me in to Naked Reloaded was the pink copper
tones in the first half of the palette and the warm neutrals in the second half
of the palette. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "calibri"; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri"; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "calibri"; font-size: large;">I <span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "calibri"; font-size: large;">like the packaging. The bronzy brown orchids on the
pillow top packaging are quite beautiful and gives you an insight as to what’s
waiting on the inside. The palette is smaller and lighter with a magnetic
closure instead of the hard plastic casing of the previous Naked palettes. Inside,
the brush slot is gone (making the palette cheaper than if previous counterparts)
and the two outmost shadows pans on each side are larger that those in the
center. </span></span></span></span><br />

When I
was swatching Bribe, I almost took out a huge chunk of it. You do not need to
press down hard on these shadows. Then there was Dreamweaver. It was a soft
chunky shadow to touch and the glitters were gritty. It didn’t swatch the
greatest and had to be patted on with my finger while on the eye it was just a
dark brown frost? The pinky silver glitter parts just fell on my face or
disappeared. I am left to wonder what the purpose of Dreamweaver was? It is
pretty much a dud for me in this palette. Blur basically is the same colour as
my skin so it barely shows up. Boundaries is a satin with gold flecks. Since
Boundaries is a lighter warm brown, I would think it’s to be considered a
crease shade. I normally do not like satins in the crease but I did like how
Boundaries blended out. The gold flecks don’t really transfer over on the eye
in an obvious way.</span> </span></span></span></span></span></span></div>

<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">The <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">L’Oreal
Infallible Total Cover Colour Correcting Concealer kit</b> is my first foray
into colour correcting. How did I get this far in life with just winging it
with concealer? </span></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Like most people, I have uneven skin tone. Everyday external
stressors like weather and accumulated sun damage have taken a toll on my skin.
I have red patches on my cheeks and mild melasma on my cheek bone area and
above my lips, in addition to dark circles via a continuous vicious cycle of
sleep deprivation. </span></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">I also struggle with finding a good concealer that will <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">totally</i> hide those annoying brown spots
while leaving a smooth non-cakey finish. Most of the colour correcting
concealers I have been checking out were in the high $20+ range and I didn’t
really want to spend that much on a green concealer if it wasn’t something I
could use. I did look at the NYX colour correcting palette but I didn’t really
like the texture of it. But now that I think of it, the NYX one was a tester
and was probably a bit dried out from being open so much. </span></div>

<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">For ‘drugstore’ makeup, this concealer palette was a bit
pricy still. It was $16.98 at Wal-Mart! I had gone to Wal-Mart a couple times
looking for this palette and they were <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">always</i>
out of stock. Or so it seemed. Wal-Mart has all the palettes (eyeshadow,
concealer lip etc) locked up in a display case. Now this display case always
had carts or boxes around it so I walked right past it several times. Has this
always been a thing? How did I not know that Wal-Mart did this? I guess palette
theft is quite a problem at Wal-Mart. Anyway It kind of annoyed me. I like to
be in and out of Wal-Mart; have a list, get in and get out. </span></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Once I got the palette home, I started swatching to
see how the texture was. I cannot stand stiff or waxy concealers. My dry skin
is very prissy with pan or stick concealers which is why I mostly stick with
liquids. So I was quite happy when the <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">L’Oreal
Infallible Total Cover Colour Correcting kit</b> swatched quite smooth.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It actually came across almost oily. Would it
work though? </span></div>

<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">The <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">L’Oreal
Infallible Total Cover Colour Correcting kit</b> comes in a black rectangle
compact. It includes a small square sponge and four colour correcting shades;
Peach – disguises dark circles, Yellow – combats discolouration, Green –
neutralizes redness, Purple – brightens dullness. The formula is quite
lightweight and blendable but like I mentioned earlier a bit greasy. The shades
are more muted compared to other correctors I swatched. They looked quite pastel-y. </span></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">With a small dual fibre eyeshadow brush, I applied the peach
corrector under my eyes and the yellow to the brown spots on my cheekbones. For
good measure, I also applied a little green on my chin and around my nose atop
of the bits of redness I had. Then I blended everything out with a dampened
sponge. Initially, I tried blending with the brush but it left streaks. Using a
sponge definitely works way better. I didn’t even try using the sponge pad that
came with the kit. It didn’t look like it would do much. </span></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">I was a little alarmed at how unnatural my face looked after
blending the shades out. I looked ghostly pale. Fortunately once I applied
foundation I couldn’t see any of the correctors peeking through. My skin looked
pretty even overall. I was also surprised that the correctors lasted all day (in
conjunction with the foundation) without fading or separating given how they
felt a little oily. Since I have dry skin, I didn’t really notice the ‘oily’
feeling during the day. I am not sure how well these would work with oiler skin
types. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">While the correctors neutralized any colour imperfections on
my skin, they did enhance the texture of my skin and it did cling to some
dryness on my skin but not horribly. To combat that issue, I sprayed a bit of
MAC Fix+ on my sponge and dabbed over the dry areas. I do highly recommend
prepping your skin beforehand; exfoliate, moisturize thoroughly and apply a
good pore minimizing primer first. It seems to be a bit of work to get a colour
corrector to work but there is a reason why I am using it in the first place
right? Hide those dark circles and brown spots! </span></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Do you use colour correctors? What is your favorite? </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "calibri";">I recently picked up and <a href="http://www.themakeupnut.com/2017/03/annabelle-cosmetics-spring-2017.html" target="_blank">reviewed</a> some products from Annabelle’s
Spring 2017 collection. One of the stand out and one of my favorites is the <a href="http://www.annabelle.com/en_ca/whats-new" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Annabelle Skinny Palette </b>($9.95).</a> There are six palettes to choose
from ranging from rosy, taupes to purples and khaki tones. The one I have for you today is the <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">New
Eve Goldy Browns</b>. </span></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri";">The Skinny Palettes come in a pocket sized rectangle black plastic
case that opens length wise from the left. It took me a minute
to figure out which side opened. They also comes with a small dual ended brush;
a sponge on one end and a brush on the other. To be honest, I do not know what
happened to my brush as I lost it. It didn’t do much for applying the shadows
anyhow. It is probably under my bed in the 'Sami nest'. My dog is like a squirrel
with toys and bones under there. I occasionally find stuff I have been looking
for like missing socks, brushes, <em>my glasses</em>. </span></div>

<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri";">While #5 is considered an eyeliner, I have been using it as
an matte shade to deepen my outer V area. All the shadows are quite smooth,
creamy to the touch and reasonably pigmented. When I was checking my collection
for any dupes, I found that formula wise these almost compare to my Too Faced Semi
Sweet Chocolate palette. What? Yeah I said it! The <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Skinny Palette</b> only being a hair drier. I mean very slightly. The
middle shade #3 is close in shade to Mousse and #5 is very close to Puddin’. I
haven’t experienced any fallout from these shadows and with a primer theylast all day for me with minimal fading by the 9 hour mark. </span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri";">Honestly, I wasn’t expecting much from this palette as I
thought it was a little basic. DO NOT judge a book by its cover! The
Goldy Browns is a nice surprise for me. I think Annabelle has a winner with
these Skinny Palettes at least the <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">New
Eve Golden Browns</b>. It’s turning out to be a great every day palette for me.
Now I have to try some of the other Skinny Palettes. You get yourself some too. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">It's
almost time for <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Sephora's Spring
VIB/Chic Sale</b>. Time to get your wish list updated to be ready to drop your
hard earned cash on some splurge worthy items. <br />
I am only an Beauty Insider this time around. For past few years actually. But
I will take 10% off no problem. I love watching Sephora hauls just to see what
is hot, swatches, first impressions and just how much people spend. They always
invoke a reaction from me. Whether it is “Ooh yess that looks good I need one
too” to "No way that is like $800. What the hell? And it isn't even a
sale." It’s a guilty pleasure.</span><br />
<br />
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">I
recently cleaned up my Sephora wish list and thought it would be fun to make a
post about what I would get if I had a $100 Sephora Gift Card for the VIB event.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">My
top items in my wish list would be:</span></div>

<span style="color: #17365d; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;">Kat Von D Light + Shade Eye Contour Palette $62 CAD/$48 USD</span></h2>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">This
is the big ticket item I would get. I was playing around with this in Sephora a
little while ago and I almost got it then but the $62 price tag has me gasping.
Do I really need that many mattes? But I rationalize that it is on sale and I
really really want it. HA! These mattes are incredibly pigmented and so buttery
soft. </span></div>

<br />
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">I
had a sample of this last year and I really loved it. So now I want more. It
was super effective in filling in my pores and makes almost any foundation work
awesome on my textured skin. Plus it works quite well smoothing over dry skin.
There is a larger version available 30ml/$50 CAD but I wanted to stay as close
to $100 as possible.</span></div>

<span style="color: #17365d; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;">Becca Glow on the Go Highlighter Set $24 CAD/$20 USD</span></h2>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">I
have never tried anything from Becca and thought the best place to start would
be with Becca’s best selling Opal luminizers. The kit includes travel sized
versions of the Shimmering Skin Perfector Pressed and Spotlight Wand in Opal.
While I am not super crazy into highlighters, I do want to understand the hype over
the Becca highlighters. I want to experience the awesomeness.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">These are not new beauty items but very loved products. Just
these <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">three items</i> brings me to $106
CAD. With the 10% off from the VIB sale, I would still have $4 to go towards
taxes. At least I qualify for free shipping. I prefer shopping online with
Sephora because you have access to better samples. I always feel disappointed
with only the one sample I get at counter in Sephora. I do have to say the new online site
is killing me. Geez Loiuse! Why does it take so long to load? The mobile version is so much faster. </span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">What
is the big item on your VIB wishlist? </span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">I
also recommend using <a href="https://www.ebates.ca/referrer?referrerid=wfX8EVYy1b4%3D%0D%0A&src=Link" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">ebates.ca</a> when shopping online. Get some extra cash back for shopping. Right now Sephora is at 8%
cash back but I suspect that it will drop down to 4% once the VIB sale starts.
But 4% is better than most cash back offers I have seen. I do have a referral link on the side bar if you wish to sign up. </span><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"> </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;">I know I am late to the game with the <strong>Makeup Forever Ultra
HD Invisible Cover foundation</strong>. I did try the original HD foundation a few years
ago and wasn’t a fan. It clung to my dry skin and texture so bad, I wasn’t in a
hurry to run out and buy the new Ultra HD formulation. But I got<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>a sample in Topbox a few months back and well

<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Makeup Forever revamped
its cult favorite HD foundation with the <strong>Ultra HD Invisible Cover foundation</strong>.
The Ultra HD is made to look invisible to 4K technology and the naked eye. The
Ultra HD Invisible Cover foundation comes in almost the same bottle as the HD;
glass bottle, silver trim (vs black), black pump and cap. I love that the cap
snaps back on really snuggly. There is something so satisfying hearing that
snap when you put the cap back on. Is that just me? Plus I still get the
giddies when a foundation has a pump. This should just be mandatory!</span></div>

<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Texture-wise
the <strong>Ultra HD</strong> formula is quite different from the original. The <strong>Ultra HD</strong> is much
thinner and liquidy. <strong>Makeup Forever</strong> has 40 shades of the <strong>Ultra HD Invisible
Cover</strong> to choose from. 40! It was a little overwhelming so I went in to Sephora
to be colour matched to Y245 which is a pretty good match for me. All colours are
identified with a R (red) or a Y (yellow) indicating the undertone. I didn’t
notice any discernible scent to the Ultra HD at all. </span></div>

<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">The thinner consistency of
the <strong>Ultra HD Invisible Cover foundation</strong> makes application so easy. It takes two
pumps for me to cover my face. I used both a sponge and a RT buffing brush to
apply. Both worked great with this foundation. The coverage is medium at most. I
could still see some of the melasma around my mouth and freckles on my nose showing
through. So if you are like me, melasma and freckles, concealing will be a
must.</span></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">The finish is a demi-matte. It was so lightweight and left my skin
feeling hydrated, I couldn’t tell I had foundation on. It also didn’t enhance
my pores but it didn’t completely blur them out either. Nor did it sink it any of my fine lines (hello forehead). It just leaves your
skin looking like skin just better. </span></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">The <strong>Ultra HD</strong> lasted maybe 7 hours for me
before it wore off in a few places. Mainly above my eyebrows. I tend to scratch
at them during the day. I notice I do that when I am at work. They call it my
WTF face. It seems to happen a lot. I do set my concealed areas (under eyes and
nose) with a loose setting powder which definitely helped the longevity factor.
Thankfully, I don’t really get dewy during the day but I can thank my dry skin
for that.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;">$52 is lot for me to spend on a foundation. So I have to love it
<em>before</em> I commit to it. And I love the way the <strong>Ultra HD Invisible Cover
foundation</strong> looks on my skin. Love it. It keeps my skin looking hydrated (but
not dewy) and is so lightweight that I find it a great foundation for someone
with dry skin. It blurs out most imperfections and doesn’t cling to dry areas and
it doesn’t make my shitty textured skin look worse. I have had so many
compliments on how nice my skin looked in the last two weeks, it make me a believer. Would I buy it again? You betcha!

few items from <a href="http://www.annabelle.com/en_ca/whats-new" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Annabelle Cosmetics</a>. Annabelle was having a 40% off and free
shipping event, so how could I resist?</span></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">My initial purpose was to grab a new
Romance Twist Up Retractable Lipstick. I love that lippy.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>But I ended up perusing the new products for Spring 2017 and of
course I found myself picking up a few items. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;">As I mentioned I had to get
another Annabelle Twist Up Retractable Lipstick in Romance. I totally fell in
love with this creamy shade a couple years ago and I NEEDED another. Romance is
a nude mauve pink and it is my go to shade. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I absolutely love the formula in these crayon
lipsticks. They are hydrating and do not dry my lips out and do not enhance any
dry patches on my lips.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The Twist Ups
are a winter favorite and one is always rolling around in my makeup bag.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;">I absolutely
love retractable eyeliners. They are so easy and unmessy to use. Annabelle
actually has a great selection of some retractable liners and they do them so
well. I wanted to really try the gel formula of the Skinny Gel Eyeliner- Black
Onyx ($8.95 CDN). This pencil thin gel liner is so creamy smooth and really black. It has a
very tiny nib so it makes getting in between the lashes easy.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>But I really like Black Onyx on my waterline.
The formula lasted all day in my waterline with only minor fading after10 hours.
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>That is one of the best results I have
ever had. Love.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;">I seem to go through matte vanilla shadows quite fast as I use
them for an all over base shade almost every day so it was an easy choice to get
the matte single shadow in Ivory ($5.95 CDN). This shade is a pretty pale nude with
slight pink undertone. It blends easily and brightens my eye. I do use this as
my starting base shade all over the eye to ‘set’ any primer with.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "calibri";">I was perusing through the new
makeup in Shoppers Drug Mart during my lunch hour and saw that Essence had a
new eyeshadow primer, <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Essence I Love Colour
Intensifying Eyeshadow Base $3.99</b>. What attracted me to this primer was that
it was a pink base. I am almost out my current primer so it was great happenstance
when I came across this one. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "calibri";">The texture of the <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Essence I Love Colour Intensifying Eyeshadow

quite well, dries smooth and has a nice light pink concealing effect on the lids almost a brightening effect. </span><span style="font-family: "calibri";">My shadow lasted pretty well all day, with no creasing or wearing off. I did experience some fading after a long day but by this time I had it on for over 9-10 hours. </span><span style="font-family: "calibri";"> I find
the <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Essence I Love Colour Intensifying Eyeshadow
Base </b>on par with more expensive eye primers (Hey you Primer Potion) just
not as thick. Good job Essence! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "calibri";">It even made some shadows that don’t
show up well (on their own) pop. Below is an example. Without primer I have a

<span style="font-family: "calibri";">I am glad I picked up <strong>Essence I Love Colour Intensifying Eyeshadow Base</strong> on a whim. It makes my shadow pop, my wallet happy and no makeup guilts for spending $20+ on an eye primer. I recommend trying it out!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12pt;">..bought makeup from the dollar store? How did it work out? Did you like it? I do once in while. I always have to look to see what the new stock is. It is never consistent which makes it fun. Sometimes I see OPI, L'Oreal. You just never what's going to be there.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Normally I stay away from eyeshadow and skin care as my experience has
usually been negative. But there are other beauty related items that may
intrigue you. </span><br />
<br /><br />
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Today's budget beauty find is all about lashes. I am always surprised and excited when I come
across Ardell lashes in Dollarama but they are generally of the super
dramatic variety that I would never get much use out of. Let down. But Dollarama also carries the Mariposa multipacks. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12pt;">These are
like the 5 pair multipacks you can get from ebay for $2-$5. At Dollarama, the
Mariposa multipacks are $3.00. That is pretty cheap! No credit cards
or waiting a month for your order.</span><br />
<br /></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12pt;">These ones are the <b>Sapphire Lash 012
Star Struck</b> (made in PRC). They come in a super cheap plastic package, held
together with a few pieces of tape. The lashes themselves are very light and
natural and the lash band is very thin and black. They actually remind me
of the Ardell Lashlites lashes. The size was perfect for me so I didn't have to
cut them. These do come with a little vial of lash glue but I am a goof when it
comes to applying lash glue. It gets everywhere! I can only use the brush on Duo Lash Glue so
I didn't even bother to try out the Mariposa glue.</span><br />

<br /></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12pt;">The one issue I had with these lashes was that they
had a really sticky adhesive on the back of them that stayed on the lashes when
you pulled them off the package. I had to use another pair of tweezers to pull
that adhesive off which came off in tiny little pieces. The second set of
lashes I used I got lazy and just left the adhesive on. My eye didn’t fall out or
get irritated but this is probably something you don't want to do on the
regular. The last multipack that I had from Dollarama did not have this
issue. </span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12pt;">All in all, these were very natural lashes that gave me length and
didn't look like I was wearing falsies. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12pt;">I also grabbed a pack of<b> Ardell
Naturals 110</b> in Wine ($3.00). There was a few black pairs there but they were half
lashes, coloured or has rhinestones on them, The 110 Wines were the most
'natural' lashes that I saw in the Ardell brand. I figure I will just add a couple coats of mascara to hide the wine colour. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12pt;">I normally don't wear
lashes on the daily as application takes me awhile plus I wear glasses a lot and
hate when the lashes are too long and swipe against my glasses when I blink.
But these Mariposa Star Struck lashes were the perfect length for me.</span><br />
<br /></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12pt;">If you
want to pick up some cheap and decent false lashes, take a look in the cosmetic
aisle next time you are at Dollarama.</span></div>

providing soft hold for your style. Hair is left protected and nourished,
formulated with lotus extract to achieve a manageable style that lasts
throughout the day</span></span> </span></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">
<span style="background: white; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;"><span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;">For
me this is more a styling product rather than a leave-in conditioner. The first
time I applied a quarter sized amount of product. It left my hair detangle but
once I had fully air dried my hair, it felt very texturized. Very much like I
had spritzed dry shampoo on my hair. I have conflicting feelings whether I like
or hate that. My hair had body and was so easy to style but the ends of my hair
were left pretty dry. So you will need to add an oil to the ends of your hair
if you have dry hair like me. The next time I used it, I used less product and
the textured feeling was considerably less. So a dime sized amount is all you
really need. My hair did still look shiny the next day and frizz and static were
significantly reduced.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I had volume on
the top of head which I normally have to work to get but a quick brush and flip
and I had volume. So there goes the conflict. </span></span></div>

<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">
<span style="mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;"><span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;">Nexxus has some
great products. I personally love the Therappe and Humectress shampoo and conditioner.
While the City Shield line left my hair pretty much frizz-free, it’s not my
most favorite Nexxus product. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The DD crème
gave my tresses some great body and I was easily able to style my hair but I
felt like it left a lot of build up in my hair. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></span></div>

<br />
Today I am sharing my thoughts on the new <strong><span style="color: #a64d79;">L'Oreal Infallible Lip Paints</span></strong>. Particularly <span style="color: #a64d79;"><strong>Spicy Blush</strong></span>. I managed to snag this in a recent Shoppers Drug Mart redemption event so my cost was nothing but these normally retail at $11.49 at SDM. This week, they are on sale for $10.99. <br />
Don't they seem a little pricey for a drugstore lip product? Are they worth the bumped up price tag? <br />
<br />
<br />
Packaged in a squeezy tube like the Too Faced Melted Lipsticks, the <strong><span style="color: #a64d79;">Infallible Lip Paints</span></strong> come with a doe foot applicator instead of sponge applicator. The doe foot has a little dip built into the end to 'scoop' up more product. And they smell like a fruity jube jubes! <br />
<br />
Advertised as a Glossy Lipstick, this <strong><span style="color: #a64d79;">Infallible Lip Paint</span></strong> came across more as a super creamy lip gloss. <br />
<br />

<br />
As I mentioned, I picked up Spicy Blush for my test subject. Spicy Blush is really pretty light mauve pink. The colour is beautiful mauve pink. Initially, Spicy Blush reminded me of Too Faced Melted lipstick in Peony but Peony is slightly bluer.<br />

The formula is very creamy and opaque. The formula is light weight but I could tell there was something on my lips. It applied beautifully <em>but it TRANSFERRED like crazy everywhere</em>. If my lips had to touch it, there was some Spicy Blush in my wake. On my coffee cup, water bottle, Pepper's head. Even after blotting (which meant you didn't have the full vivacity), it still transferred. <br />
The wear time was typical of a lip gloss. You will need to reapply after eating or drinking. I only got a few hours wear time out of it at any given time. <br />

<br />
There are 13 shades available in Canada and 14 in the US. At Shoppers Drug Mart, there were only 8 shades displayed. <br />
<br />
I was really looking for the shade Nude Star but it wasn't on display. I don't think I will be tracking it down in any haste. The Lip Paints were okay - just sort of Meh for me and really not worth the $11.49 price tag. The sheer amount this product transferred means I probably won't be reaching for Spicy Blush on a daily basis. <br />
<br />
Have you tried the Infallible Lip Paints yet?<br />

I am quickly posting my January Topbox before my February one gets here.<br />Topbox is the only subscription box I am subscribed to at the moment. The exchange rate was getting ridiculous for boxes from the US so I cancelled them. I hope to resub again in the future as I quite enjoyed the ipsy bags. But Topbox remains one of my favorites. For $12/mth, I think it is worth it. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I really do enjoy their prive boxes. I just wish there was an option where you could get the regular Topbox and one prive box as well. I am trying to be greedy without seeming gauche.</span><br />

These Piggy (honey) masks are a bit creepy. I truly look like I have peeling skin. Like something out American Horror Story! Have you tried these? </span></span></span></span><br />

orange. When I first got these, I was thinking in my head Yes, DIY balayage! <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Ummm no...I think my expectations were a bit
cray-cray. Silly rabbit.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></span><br />
<span lang="EN-CA"><span style="font-family: "calibri";">Let's first talk about the In-Shower Treatment.
The In-Shower Treatment is a lightening product that comes in a dual squeeze
tube for easy application. It is supposed to be a quick and easy way to lighten
your hair. You fold back the plastic tab to reveal a small opening to each
tube. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></span>

<div style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span lang="EN-CA"><span style="font-family: "calibri";">I
opted to do this part out of the shower. I brushed and then wetted down my
hair. I squeezed the product out directly out on to my wet hair.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I paid special attention to applying this
solution to the front edges and the lower portion of my hair. It wasn’t too
hard to apply to the desired areas although it wasn’t precise.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The product, a thin gel consistency, allowed
me to squeeze the product out in straightish lines down the length of my hair.
Then I patted and stroked it on to the strands.</span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-CA"><span style="font-family: "calibri";">The whole time, I was either holding my
breath or taking breathes through my mouth only. The In-Shower ~~gasp~~ <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Treatment ~~gasp~~ <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>stinks horribly! <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You only need to keep it on for 5 minutes and
then rinse off but <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">holy crap</i> I don’t
think I would have been able to handle being enclosed in a shower with that ammonia-rific
smell. I dye my hair all the time and this treatment was possibly the strongest
smelling solution I have tried in a long time. Not a fan of the smell.</span></span></div>

<div style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span lang="EN-CA"><span style="font-family: "calibri";">After the five minutes were up, I jumped in
the shower and rinsed off the lightening agent and breathed deep. Then I washed
with the Visibly Brightening Subtle Lightening Shampoo and Conditioner. I was
pleasantly surprised that the shampoo was ashy gold colour. The colour will
give brunette hair a golden boost. The conditioner was beige cream and worked
wonderfully.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>My hair feels pretty good
right now. Smooth and soft. Plus I like the smell of the conditioner. All these
products are infused with honey and marigold extract. I am not positive what marigolds
smell like but I am envisioning they smell like this conditioner. </span></span></div>

Visibly Brighter Subtle Lightening system work? Yes I have to say it does. <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">It is subtle</i>, I will say that. It will
not give you any sort of balayage situation (what was I thinking? Haha) but
your hair will appear a tiny bit lighter and in my case the chestnut tones took
on a slightly more golden tone.</span></span></div>

<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-CA;">Love the pump on
here. I think all shampoo and conditioners should come with a pump! The Fleximax Volumizer formula is
supposed to leave hair smooth and polished. I used 2 pumps to lather through my hair. I let it soak in for a few minutes then I rinsed out.</span></div>

<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-CA;">This shampoo suds up
like crazy. Wow. I had it all throughout my hair in no time. The second

<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-CA;">I was worried at
first after I rinsed the shampoo out that my hair would be too
tangly to get a comb through. It was a little hard to finger comb my hair out. So instead of waiting to let my hair air

<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-CA;">Use after the Tresemmé Beauty-Full Reverse Wash
System. Apply small amount to damp hair from roots to tips, focusing on the
lengths. Blow dry your hair using a round brush to create volume.</span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-CA;">I used about a
nickel size worth of product and ran it through my hair getting close to the
roots (I stayed about an inch away). <i>Then </i>I combed my hair. The Hair Maximizer gave my
hair enough silkiness that I was able to comb my hair. I hardly ever blow
dry my hair anymore so I let it air dry giving my hair a flip every once in a
while to bump up the volume naturally. </span></div>

using the </span><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-CA;"><b><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-CA;">Tresemmé </span>Beauty-Full Volume Collection</b> went well. <i>Really well</i>. I was pretty happy with
the results.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I had bounce, frizz control
and manageability. But sometime near the end of the second week, my hair started becoming greasy a day after washing.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>My
hair is dry; I rarely ever get greasy hair.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Normally, I can go 2-3 days before I feel the need to wash my hair. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"></span>I think maybe my scalp rebeled against the Hair Maximizer? But I like how it smoothes out my hair! </span><br />
<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-CA;">So while it does deliver what it promises; volume, bounce and frizz free hair, I don't think reverse washing with Beauty-Full Volume is for me on the everyday.</span><br />

<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-CA;">I am a fan of Tresemmé
products and use them quite a bit. I especially enjoy the </span><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-CA;"><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-CA;">Tresemmé </span>Keratin Smooth line. It helps keep winter dryness and frizz at bay. </span><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-CA;">While I can't use
the Beauty-Full Volume system continuously, I will use it periodically to get me some shiny bouncy hair. Since I don't blow dry my hair that often anymore, <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"></span>I think I may need to try the mousse from this
line. </span><br />
<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-CA;">Have you tried Reverse Washing you hair? Did it work for you?</span><br />
<span style="color: #a64d79;"><strong><em>Edited to Add:</em></strong> I went back and tried this system out again for the past two weeks without the Hair Maximizer. The results were </span><span style="color: #a64d79;">fantastic! It was the Hair Maximizer that was causing my scalp to get oily. Yay so excited to figure that out. Do I notice a huge difference in my hair versus using shampoo and conditioner the traditional way? I think so, I seem to have less product build up in my hair. But my hair gets a static-y a bit easier than before. </span><br />

L’Oreal recently launched its version of a cushion
foundation for Spring 2016 and I was eager to give the <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">True Match Lumi Cushion</b> foundation a try as I love luminous finish
foundations and have tried the L’Oreal True Match Lumi Foundation with happy
results. And I just wanted to get on the cushion band wagon of course!<br />

Let’s talk about the compact first. It is really pretty. I love the rose gold. The foundation comes
in a double lid compact. The pretty rose gold lid is actually the mirror on the
inside. It has a round sponge applicator sitting atop the well of the secondary
lid that keeps the product air tight. The sponge cushion sits at the bottom
of the compact. The foundation looks really dark in the sponge but trust me it is pretty
light on the skin.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Currently, L’Oreal Paris
Canada only has 8 shades available in the <b>Lumi Cushion</b> line. All are in light
to medium skin tone range. L’Oreal Paris USA has 12 shades available. </div>

Since I use a mixture of N1-2 (Classic Ivory) and N3 in
the True Match Lumi liquid foundation line, I picked up N2 Classic Ivory in the

The <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Lumi Cushion Foundation</b>
has sheer coverage.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You can build it up
to a light medium coverage but don’t expect anything more than that. I definitely
need concealer if I want to cover up the red splotches on my cheeks or any
redness.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>

<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
This foundation is really dewy. <i>Really dewy</i>. I have dry dehydrated
skin so the luminosity of this foundation is not really an issue for me. In
fact it is what drew me to it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>My skin
seems to suck this foundation right up and I don’t see the super luminous effect
other see.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Unfortunately for me, once
the foundation set it did cling to dry patches. </div>

The wear time on the <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Lumi
Cushion</b> was about 5 hours. It began wearing off rapidly after that, first
on the lower cheeks and then the chin and nose. I tried reapplying it at work
in the afternoon but it did not look as good as applying it in the morning on
fresh skin. </div>

The price is the real stickler for me. I got it when it was on
sale for $16.49 CDN. That was 30% off making the foundation normally sitting at
the $24 mark for 0.51oz. It is pricey considering the True Match Lumi Foundation
runs about $18 CDN for 1oz.</div>

The <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Lumi Cushion</b>
is an alright foundation for me. But I do not think I will be repurchasing. I consider
the L’Oreal True Match Lumi liquid foundation much better coverage, effect and
price than the <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Lumi Cushion </b>foundation.
In the end, I have other foundations, CC and DD creams that look better if I
want sheer coverage at a better price.</div>

Bonjour Makeupnuts! It’s monthly Topbox time. Once again, I opted for
the regular Topbox for March. I am so predicable right? Honestly I can't remember what the wishlist selections were. I think there was an Elizabeth Arden and So Susan prive box. What I do remember is that I either had or tried most of the Topbox wishlist items previously. So the regular one it was. </div>

From my little swatch fest, I do like how this foil

Spearmint! That’s all I can smell when I open this. There
is definitely mint oil in this. It is so tingly and cooling on the lips. I
still haven’t decided whether I like that or not. But it is so moisturizing. I

right shoulder and curling my hair became a huge pain. So on those bad days, I
just didn’t bother curling my hair. I have naturally wave hair so a couple
pumps of curling cream and <em>lot</em> of scrunching and I am ready. But to look more
polished, I like to curl my hair for a more uniform stylish look. Because of the
shoulder issue, I need a curling iron with a clamp. Lifting my arms up to wrap my
hair around wands is a struggle for me. It takes me forever and my arms kill me
afterwards. Having an auto rotating curing iron makes curling my hair even
easier now. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "calibri";">A few weeks ago I was given the opportunity to try out
the <a href="http://www.irresistibleme.com/hair-tools/ruby-auto-curling-iron.html" target="_blank">Irresistible Me Ruby-Auto Rotating Curling Iron.</a> When this professional
curling wand arrived, I was super impressed with the lux and sturdy packaging it
came in.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It even has a little magnetic
close on it. I don’t even want to toss it. The top flap has all the cool features this
<a href="http://www.irresistibleme.com/hair-tools/ruby-auto-curling-iron.html" target="_blank">professional curling wand</a> has displayed on it. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "calibri";">The iron itself is sleek and long but it is lightweight
and surprisingly evenly balanced. The 360 degree cord makes it easy to place nicely
on any counter. No more having the cord drag my iron off the counter for me!
The cord is just over 8’ long.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Most
irons have a standard 6’ cord. I didn’t think that extra 2 feet would make a
huge difference but it sure makes moving around with the iron a lot easier. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "calibri";"><span style="mso-bidi-font-size: 7.5pt;">The barrel is
ceramic, fused with tourmaline to easily create silky, smooth curls. The
diamond coating enhances i</span>ts durability and heat transfer. </span><span style="font-family: "calibri";"><span style="mso-bidi-font-size: 7.5pt;">The tourmaline
gemstone is a natural source of negative ions and far-infrared heat, which
provides faster styling.</span> <span style="mso-bidi-font-size: 7.5pt;">Negative
ions eliminate frizz and lock in moisture by closing the cuticle to create
smooth, shiny hair. </span></span><br />

Lil</span>’ <span style="mso-bidi-font-size: 7.5pt;">BoPeep. But I just pulled on
the curls after letting them rest for a couple minutes. The curls loosened up
nicely and after a tousle at the roots I got looser curls. Now I am lucky and
my hair holds a curl for the whole day so I don</span>’<span style="mso-bidi-font-size: 7.5pt;">t need a lot of products to assist that but I do </span>have super dry
ends so I do need some styling and conditioning oils. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Always a balance, right? </span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "calibri";">The auto-rotating feature is something else! <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I love it! Pressing the right or left button
will direct the curl. I take 1.5 inch sections of hair and clamp it about 1 inch
from the bottom and let the wand do the rest. There is a teensy learning curve
with this iron but after a few minutes it becomes easy, kind of fun actually.
Bzzz bzzz bzzz. I played with the <strong>Ruby Auto-Rotating Curling Iron</strong> for 10-15
minutes before I used it to learn all the features. The coolest feature I think
is the Reset button. Press the red Reset button to have the handle clip return
to the front position and you are ready to go in for another curl or you can
place the iron on the counter. God I love technology sometimes! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "calibri";">The handle is ergonomically designed. As I mentioned
before the iron is well balanced, not bottom heavy at all. The buttons are
placed so well that you don’t accidently touch them when curling your hair. A
common problem with my old iron; I would always turn the temperature down or up
with my palm. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The base has a little bump
on the bottom so that when you set it down, the little stand in the middle and
the ’bump’ at the base make the curling iron stand perfectly horizontal to the
counter. I haven’t even used my heat mat since getting this iron. The cool
touch tip means you don’t have to wear gloves! But I found I didn’t even really
use the cool touch tip because the <strong>Ruby Auto-Rotating Curling Iron</strong> did all the
work for me. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "calibri";">I also tested the auto standby feature to see if it would
shut off after an hour and it does. I was wondering why an hour but since it is
a <a href="http://www.irresistibleme.com/hair-tools/ruby-auto-curling-iron.html" target="_blank">professional curling wand</a>, I imagine it would be frustrating having it shut
off every 20 minutes. I always have weird paranoia attacks sometimes when I
leave the house; did I shut the curling iron off? OH Geez! and I will turn
around and drive back just to check! Seriously. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I am such a weirdo sometimes. So auto shutoff
is for me! </span><br />

<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-CA;">So this Topbox
posting is <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">really</i> late. My Topbox
decided it wanted to take the long way around to get to me in Winnipeg. I know
nobody likes coming here in the winter but come on! Canada Post took it on a
ride from Mississauga to Dieppe, New Brunswick, then on to Montreal before
arriving a week or so later in Winnipeg. I guess I should be happy it arrived
this month at least! Then my camera decided it would pick last week to die. But
it wasn’t dead! The SD card was corrupted and wouldn’t let my camera turn on. I
was so happy once I figured that out. After some swearing and smashing of
computer equipment, I was able to get some of the images off my card and onto a
USB stick. Technology be a bitch sometimes! Teresa Smash!!! Ha but I am
thankful I have my pictures now. </span></div>

<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-CA;"><span style="font-family: "calibri";">I love the medium to full coverage
of the <b>Lise Watier Teint Lift Anti-Rides SPF20 </b>foundation! <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"></span>I
chose the colour Neutre which was a pretty good match for my current skin tone.
A tricky thing to do when choosing a foundation online! Neutre is pretty light
but overall it has a nice yellow neutral base. The thick creamy formula was
very easy to blend and a little goes a long way. It smoothed out my skin quite
well. In the picture below, I didn’t use a primer. <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">But</i> with the use of a primer, it smoothed out on the skin even
better. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Since it is a thicker
foundation, your skin really needs to be moisturized well or it may cling to
dry patches. The wear was phenomenal for me. It lasted the whole work day and
had only minor wear along my jaw and cheeks after a 14 hour day. That wear was
from me touching my face and my scarf rubbing against it. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>In short, for my dehydrated skin, I am loving
this foundation. </span></span></div>

this because they were pink brushes! The girly cuteness drew me in. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The <b>purminerals Magic Wands</b> are well made,
solid and light and all the brushes are super soft and silky. The eye brushes
and the foundation brush are dense and flexible, making for great application.
The face brush and blush brush were a little too floppy for my liking.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I had a hard time trying to control the application.
I really only use them just to diffuse or dust off any powder on my skin.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The pencil eye brush is now a favorite and
comes with me in my makeup bag, which is the purminerals makeup bag now. I love
this bag! It’s a yummy summer pink and it fits perfectly in my purse but is
large enough to fit an Urban Decay eyeshadow plus all my on the go makeup!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></span></div>
