Maybelline SuperStay Vinyl Ink Liquid Lipstick in Red Hot

Can you believe that today is that last day of November?! I feel like November just flew by! I'm getting so excited for holiday season (although we are full blown in it already!)

I purchased this product on my own

Speaking of holiday season - are you looking for the perfect bold red lip for your holiday parties?! I know there is a million out there and honestly, there is so many out there you don't need this recommendation. 

Manicure Monday - Matte Green Geometric Nails

Happy Monday everyone - hope you all had a good weekend! It's time for busy holiday season, but I still managed to get a quick mani in! 

The OPI polishes were received as PR samples 

November nails for the #CBBxManiMonday group is going to be a little bit of a free for all (literally the theme of the month), since we are all in between a month of October Halloween nails and prepping for a month of holiday nails in December! 

Five on Friday - November 24, 2023 ~ Moon of the Turning Leaves Book Review, November 2023 Owlcrate Subscription, The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes Movie, Across The Spider-verse DVD, and Monthly Declutter

Happy Friday everyone - I hope you all had a good week! It's been a little crazy around here, but I think at this point, I say that every week! 

ONE 

Moon of the Turning Leaves and Across The Spider-verse was sent as a review copy

I'm always happy when I have a good book to share, especially when that good book is Canadian! I read Moon of the Crusted Snow earlier this year and it was fantastic - it's modern dystopian, so realistic and super eerie. It takes place on a remote reserve in Northern Ontario and essentially the power shuts off forever and the people on the reserve have no idea what happens. The first book follows what happens immediately following the events and what the community does to survive. Then, this year we got a sequel, Moon of the Turning Leaves by Waubgeshig Rice and it's just as good as the first one!

Happy Manicure Monday - slightly late, whoops! I had everything loaded up but forgot to actually type anything! 

I purchased everything in this post

Winter 2023 - The Jilly Box Subscription Unboxing

I'm a big fan of Jillian Harris, so when she announced that she was starting a subscription box, I was so excited! The box started with the Winter 2019 box and sadly, I was not one of the lucky originals who won a subscription spot, so I sign up every season and hope to get picked for a lottery spot!

I purchased this box

The Jilly Box is a quarterly seasonal subscription box - the products within the box include some of Jillian’s (and Team Jilly’s!) favourite items (and brands) from home decor, fashion, bath and beauty, health and wellness, accessories perfect for each season. Some of the items included will be custom designed exclusively for the Jilly Box. The Jilly Box really focuses on including products from small, local businesses while being ethically sourced and inclusive. They also focus on reducing plastic waste and packaging - the big boxes can be turned inside out and reused! Also, they try to include Canadian, woman owned brands, as well as Bipoc and LGBTQ owned brands as well.
