I have been wishing for Spring for weeks here in Calgary and I finally feel like we are there! (I will try and not get too far ahead of myself; because, it is Calgary and we are always guaranteed a snow storm in April and May! But, I'm starting to pick up a few things for Spring, and these Keds x Rifle Paper Co. were a must have when I saw them! 

Urban Decay Naked Reloaded Palette - Swatches, Look and Thoughts!

The original Urban Decay Naked palettes were the ultimate neutral palettes years ago - I know I really started my makeup collection with the Naked 2 and 3 palettes! I did recently declutter those palettes as they were getting a little old, so my collection was missing a neutral Urban Decay palette!

Enter the new Urban Decay Naked Reloaded palette! When this was sneak-peeked and released, I wasn't actually convinced that I needed this palette! It looked nice; but, didn't scream "buy me" right away! Then, I saw a few posts and videos from bloggers that I trust and the swatches and looks made me really feel that this would be a fabulous neutral palette in my collection! 

Rodial Collagen Boost Lip Lacquers

For the longest time, every look was all about the matte lip look and every brand was working for the best formula. The new lip trend now is definitely glosses and every brand is working for the best formula - so we are getting some seriously great lip gloss formulas now! Gone are the times that we have to have goopy or sticky lips for a glossy look!

Manicure Monday - Pink, Floral & Glitter Bridal Nails

Happy Manicure Monday everyone! Like last week the #CBBManiMonday group is focusing again on bridal nails for this week! 

One polish is a PR sample 

Last week, I went a traditional route and recreated my more glam wedding nails that I wore almost 4 years ago. So this week, I wanted to go with a little more traditional "wedding" nail look!
