13 By Halloween: Update 1
Ah the 13 by Halloween project pan update. I am so excited to update everyone on my progress. I will say some products were really difficult to tell the progress since in the intro I forgot to take pictures showing the beginning of a few items (i.e the progress of my cream products and my lip products) but because I recently got a tripod … Read More 13 By Halloween: Update 1

UK Makeup Haul
Oh golly, you all know that when I went to Europe I had to hit up the quintessential UK based drug stores – Superdrug, boots, Kiko and of course oxford street Lush. I didn’t get the chance to go into Selfridges (next time) but I wasn’t really going to buy any high end makeup anyway. Naturally I did a bit of shopping and tried … Read More UK Makeup Haul

Blune Day 21: Getting re-inspired by my makeup collection
Makeup. It’s obviously something I love and will always love, but it is also an industry that more broadly has so many layers that I have been thinking about. I have been thinking a lot about makeup and beauty in terms of consumption and the idea of the fast production of makeup products for fast consumption by consumers and the hype that surrounds makeup. … Read More Blune Day 21: Getting re-inspired by my makeup collection

Blune Day 19: Empties the second
As a first point, I didn’t use all of these up this month, this has been accumulating since my last empties post. Most of these products were good, some not so great and others were just meh. I thought I would take you through a few items that I’ve used up and give a wee review on some of them. The Marcelle Gentle Cream … Read More Blune Day 19: Empties the second

Blune Day 14: lip formulas I enjoy
Ah yes, as you might know my one of my favourite makeup items are lipsticks. I don’t know about you, but I am always searching for the perfect nude, the perfect berry, the perfect red in colour and formula. I have found that my favourite types of lipsticks are the barely there formulas that pack a punch in pigmentation. This is not surprise to … Read More Blune Day 14: lip formulas I enjoy

Blune Day 6: Using Clean makeup for two weeks
First of all a before I get into my fun experiment, a definition for clean makeup: it is makeup with no toxic ingredients like parabens, talc. The ingredients must be sustainably sourced, ethically sourced, and non toxic to human health and the environment. Think brands like RMS, Jane Iredale, Bite Beauty, Burts Bees! As a result of this understanding and in the name of … Read More Blune Day 6: Using Clean makeup for two weeks

Of course, throughout April I may (see what I did there) have found some gems that I wanted to share in things I liked and did. I really didn’t do anything so these are some of the products I was … Read More Things I liked and Did in April

Product empties
I have seen these on YouTube and perhaps they are better suited to that platform BUT I have accumulated so many products that I have used up over the past I would 6-8 months. These items range from body care, skincare, and makeup (yay!). I thought I would take you through a few items and give a mini review. Skincare items: the Ordinary squalane, … Read More Product empties

My Favourite Nude Lipsticks
I do love bold lipsticks, but I also LOVE nude lipsticks. In fact I think I own far too many for one human. I thought I would give a shout out to my favourite nude lippies, all cruelty free! 100% Pure lip caramel in truffle. Yes, I know you are likely sick of hearing about this bad boy. BUT it’s beautiful. It’s a darker … Read More My Favourite Nude Lipsticks

Skin care
Hello all. Now this is a bit of a different post for me. Usually I dabble in things unrelated to my actual beauty routine such as fitness, feminism and old lady posts. But I thought I would make a post on my skin care routine. I recently went home, back to northern Ontario where my skin FREAKED OUT. I mean I have never had … Read More Skin care
