I said this would be up at the end of May beginning of June but here we are in July! Life got ahead of me, have no fear I still had my notes from the month of May and documented how my skin reacted in May. During the month of April, I did an entire month using drugstore makeup items. In the month of … Read More What Happened to my Skin after One Month of High End Makeup

Sephora Haul: Mini Reviews
I did a bit of shopping over the past few months at good old Sephora. I have been near a Sephora about twice a month for the past 6 months for work training, and I always took the opportunity to do a little bit of a pop in at Sephora. I got a few of these products online (during the Sephora sale) and a … Read More Sephora Haul: Mini Reviews

Drugstore Hero Products
From my month of only wearing drugstore makeup I discovered quite a few lovely drugstore products. I wanted to share some drugstore products that are sort of hero products in my collection. This was also in part inspired by Mariah Leonard. Stay tuned this month for a “what happened to my skin when I used high end makeup for a month”. Joe Fresh powder … Read More Drugstore Hero Products
Drugstore Concealer Round up
Because I’m not sent anything, I obviously do not have EVERY drugstore concealer on the market for this post. However, I have quite a few concealers I’ve been collecting over the past 7 months, FOR SCIENCE. I wanted to give mini-reviews on each. I think it’s helpful to have a reference point for something that most people use in their daily lives, makeup lover … Read More Drugstore Concealer Round up
6 by Labour Day Project Pan
I love project pans and wanted to start another (actually I have been using these since May 1) but am just late on posting these items.

What Happened to My skin After only Using Drugstore Makeup for Month
In the name of science, I decided that for the month of April I would use all drugstore makeup for a month. In doing so I kept all my project pan items the same – such as the body shop foundation which is mid-range as well as my pan that palette, palettes, but other than that I switched out my normal high and low … Read More What Happened to My skin After only Using Drugstore Makeup for Month
Earth toned makeup look
I have always been a fan of earth-toned makeup, while this could have been a green look or a blue look I don’t tend to buy lots of colours so I decided in honour of earth day I wanted to create earth-toned look. I want to acknowledge that the beauty industry is a wasteful industry, packaging, advertising, etc. I constantly buy products in packaging … Read More Earth toned makeup look
Project Pan Roulette Update 3
I am finally slightly on time for this update. I really love panning, it’s so satisfying to hit the pan on an item or get your monies worth out of a product. Rebecca Morgan and Alexy created this and are such inspirations for shopping your stash. Some of these products have literally no progress and some of them do. There will be a new … Read More Project Pan Roulette Update 3
Products Worth the Splurge
I did a post last year (eek) about products I’m not willing to splurge on. I wanted to do another one about products I am willing to splurge on and why they are worth it. I get it, spending $45 on a blush is wild, it is, but I will say with no shame that I have spent that amount of money on a … Read More Products Worth the Splurge
2019 Goals
Okay, I don’t want to sound like one of THOSE people but the word resolutions irks me because it’s assuming you want to solve a problem or make a super firm decision. I like to call them goals simply because using this language makes me personally feel less bad if I don’t complete a resolution. I have a few goals for 2019 that I … Read More 2019 Goals
