April 2019 - Monthly Empties & Month in Masks

Here is a look at my beauty empties from April:

Smashbox Photo Finish Primer Oil ~ sample size shown (full size is $55.00 CAN). An ultra-light, fast-absorbing face oil that doubles as a face primer—imparting a glowing, radiant look with a dewy finish.

I never thought with combo skin and an oily t-zone that I would have really loved an oil primer; but, this works amazing for my skin in Fall, Winter and early Spring. It gives me a nice glow and really helped my foundation apply smoother! This made my Feb Favourites last year! I can't wear this in the Summer or when it's really warm; but, it looks good any other time! 
Repurchase: Yes! 

April Shop My Stash - Green & Blue Earth Month Month Look

This month's Shop My Stash Makeup Look was all about Earth Month and I went with a Green and Blue eye look! I also tried to use some Earth Friendly products when available!

Yesterday, April 22 was Earth Day and all month I've been sharing some more Earth friendly products when I can! It's also our CBB theme of the month, so I thought why not use the greens and blues of our beautiful planet as my inspiration for this month's makeup look! 

Five on Saturday - October 27, 2018

Happy Saturday everyone! Hope you all have had a great week! Mine has been crazy - my older son and I went to Penticton on Saturday to surprise my Dad for his 60th birthday, had a party and then came home on Sunday evening. Then, right after I got home, I left the next morning for 3 days in Edmonton for work! I got home late on Wednesday so Thursday and Friday were a total whirlwind! Ugh, I need a weekend! 

ONE 

I will start with a disclaimer that this Five on Saturday is a little subscription box heavy as I got 3 in the mail this week! 

Let's start with the Scratch Monthly Mani Kit - it is $10.00 US + $4.95 for international shipping! Each month you get an exclusive set of wraps that aren't available for purchase and a few extra little mani goodies!

Five on Friday - June 9, 2017

Happy Friday everyone! Hope you all had a great week!

You guys!!!!! How cute are the sneak peek pictures from Elliott's photoshoot?! We used Calgary Newborn Photographer A.C. Photography (seriously if you are in Calgary, make sure to check her out!!!)

May 2016 - Ipsy Glam Bag Review and Unboxing!

Ipsy is one of the original inexpensive beauty bag sample subscriptions. You receive 4-5 deluxe sample size or full size products each month. The cost is $10 US (+ $4.95 shipping to Canada - you will have to factor in our crazy exchange rate right now!)

Ipsy is generally make-up products with a mix of skincare, nail polish, and hair products based on a beauty profile you complete. There is usually 12-18 products that are selected from each month! You can view your "glam room" online that tells you all the products you will receive each month. You also receive a make-up bag each month with your products.

Ipsy always ships out in it's signature pink mailer, and here is a look at what came inside! 

This month's theme is "Destination Chic" and I have to say this bag is pretty awesome - a lot different than most of their bags!
