Day 03 - Your favourite brush

Ecotools Blush Brush

This brush has been appreciated since the moment it was bought. I adore blush, and this Ecotools brush is perfect for powder blushes. It has a very unique cut to it that applies blush perfectly, in my opinion. This says a lot, because it surpasses two of my MAC blush brushes.

The best part? It is made of cruelty free bristles, totally ecofriendly & is very inexpensive. You can purchase this brush at Wal-Mart for about $5.

Day 02 - Your favourite bag that you own

Big Buddha Arlene

 

I am a freak for oversize bags, mainly because I over pack them! I put so much random things inside my bag I could practically live in it. This means it's always heavy and ends up breaking after a few months. This baby has carried my laptop and multiple books at the same time & it looks as good as new. Also, I'm a sucker to sewn on flowers like these ones, so I HAD to get it.

I bought it on BagHaus.com for $82 (+ a crappy $20 shipping). Thankfully there was a 30% off promotion so I saved the shipping cost and paid a little over $70 in total.

Day 01 - Your Favourite Makeup Palette

Too Faced: Natural Eye Palette

Every penny I put into this palette was worth it! It has infinite possibilities to the looks you can create. Whether you're going to school, work, a club or supper there will be a colour combination for you. All for $35USD / $44CND. 

Includes shades: Heaven (matte ivory), Velvet Revolver (matte taupe), Sexspresso (matte deep brown), Silk Teddy (peach champagne shimmer), Push-Up (light bronze shimmer), Erotica (soft charcoal shimmer), Nude Beach (champagne shimmer with gold glitter), Honey Pot (gold shimmer), Cocoa Puff (warm chocolate brown shimmer)

** I've decided to do the 30 Day Challenge. Seeing as I'm in exams it will be an easy way to update my blog every day. I do not remember where I found this because I saved it months ago, I did try to find the exact link but I just couldn't. Also, a lot of these were not relevant to me what so ever (contact lenses of the day... I don't have any) or repetitive so I modified the challenge a little.

Nail of the Day: OPI's The One That Got Away

The only colour I wanted from the Katy Perry collection was "The One That Got Away" (+ the shatter...). I kept going back and forth as to whether I wanted to buy it, and every time I decided I would it would coincidentally go out of stock, giving me enough time to change my mind.

My friend had bought it and offered to lend it to me, which I accepted! I've finally tried it on & if you like the way it looks in the bottle, wait till you see it on your nails. 

Sadly, my camera could not catch the exact colour it was, and trust me when I say that I filled my memory card trying to get the picture right. I'd say it's a tad more burgundy and has so much more shimmer than the picture shows. It's such a diva colour (the good kind of diva) and you'll look like a star with it on your nails!

Did you get any Katy Perry polishes?

MAC Eye Shadow Dupes in 1 Palette!

 

I personally only own 10 MAC eye shadows, and the facts that I found 5 dupes out of those 10 colours in this palette is amazing. I mean, there probably are a bunch more I don't know of!

Also, don't forget that this palette costs less than 2 MAC eye shadows. Totally worth it right?

Nails of the Day: Essie's Topless & Barefoot

Unlike makeup, when it comes to nail polish, I am all about colours! You will rarely find me with nude nails. I recently bought a mini set of Essie's spring collection, and this colour was in it. I was not very interested in this one, but I really wanted the others. 

This is a pale beige with pink undertones to it. You can especially see the pink tones in the sunlight. I've never found a nude colour that is opaque and suits my skin tone, but this one does! 

After one day of wearing it I got bored, but didn't have time to remove it. I got the bright idea of using a thin brush black polish to design a cute bow on my thumb, which actually brought my nails to a whole other level. I wish I took a picture of it (but dumb me didn't, I'll do it again soon!). 

What do you think of this colour?

March Collective Haul

Okay, so I'm very late, and I blame school! I took all the pictures on April 1st so these are truly all purchases from March. It just took me so long to actually put together this post.

Nails of the Day: Essie's Van D'Go

I recently bought this colour, and this is the first time I've ever tried it on. I am not kidding when I say this is officially my favourite nail polish, taking the first position above my beloved Sephora by OPI's Metro Chic & OPI Tropical Punch. 

The colour in the bottle is nothing compared to the finished product on your nails. You will have an almost neon coral pink (if that exists). The colour is perfect for spring and summer, and I noticed that it makes my hands look so tanned (although I am as pale as snow at this time of the year). Ideal polish for a day at the beach or by the pool!

Have a great day!! :)

Update!!

Recently, I've had NO time to write on here. I know, I am a horrible blogger.

So, school is taking over my life. I'm currently in finals, and if you go to University you know how horrible exam season can be. Even worst, it is finally nice outside, so all I want to do is go biking and walking. AS IF I HAD THE TIME. 

I just got home from my first final which ended at 9PM today, 3 more to go! I think it went well! Come April 30th, I am free.

Well, not exactly... I am taking two classes in the summer. :( I know it sucks, but they're intensive and end before July, so I will have the rest of the summer for myself. I just need extra credits..

Anyways, I'm going try posting a couple of posts here and there. I'll do my best!

Love you all, if you read my blog :)
