One Brand Favourites: Nyx

Hi guys! So today, I thought I'd talk to you all a bit about my favourite products from Nyx. Nyx only became available in Canadian stores this year and they have quickly become one of my favourite brands. While I still haven't tried all of their products (I have my eye on the Lip Lingerie liquid lipsticks that are only available online!), I have tried a good amount and I have many favourites that you all NEED to add to your collection! 1) Soft Matte Lip Creams There is no surprise here. I am pretty obsessed with these. As far as drugstore matte liquid lipstick goes, these are the best. They also come in a great variety of colours, so whether you're looking for a vampy, dark mauve or a subtle nude, they have what you're looking for. The lasting power is great, and I don't find them to be overly drying. Overall, they're a must-have if you want to up your matte lip game without spending a ton! 2) Prismatic Eyeshadows For me, these were love at first

MAY FAVOURITES!

Wow, can you believe its June already? This  month flew by so quickly! Luckily, I did also discover a ton of amazing new products that I cannot wait to share with you all! Nyx HD Concealer in "Fair" The fact that this is a drugstore concealer blows my mind. It is so creamy and offers amazing coverage. Hands down the best concealer I've ever used on my under eye circles! Covergirl Ready Set Gorgeous foundation (in 110 creamy natural) I'm really liking this foundation this month. It offers a light to medium coverage which is what I like to have in the summer. It wears really well, even on really hot or humid days, which is a must! Too Faced Shadow Insurance I know this stuff has been around for ages, but WOW is it ever good. It can not only hold glittery eyeshadows for hours without any creasing, but it actually makes them look SO much better. It even increases the amount of pigmentation you get from your shadow! If you haven't tried this yet, y

Nyx 'Soft Matte Lip Cream' Review

If you look through my lipstick stash, you'd notice that I own a LOT of burgundy/dark berry shades. This is because I spent a lot of time (and money) looking for the perfect one. It took a while, but I found it. And that was Nyx's Soft Matte Lip Cream in Copenhagen. This product is perfect for me. The colour suits my skin tone perfectly and is the perfect dark red that isn't too vampy, but just the right amount of sexy, dark and dramatic. Aside from the colour, there are many reasons to love this product. The reasons that led me to buy 3 other shades as well. The other 3 I have are Monte Carlo, which is your standard, bright red lip, Transylvania, a deep berry/merlot colour and San Paulo, a peachy/coral pink. The lasting power is great. It lasts for a long time without fading so you wont be constantly reapplying. Contrary to most matte lip products, it doesn't dry out your lips and it also doesn't cling to every little dry patch on your lips. So you can ju

My 2015 Makeup and Beauty Favourites!

Hey everyone! So as 2015 comes to a close, I've gathered up all my favourite makeup products from this year into one big post! So here are the products that I loved ALL year and were my absolute favourites. I'll also be writing full reviews for each one of these products throughout the month of January for those of you who would like to know more! Too Faced Born This Way Foundation By far the best foundation I've used probably ever. I love this stuff. I have dry skin so finding a good foundation is usually pretty hard for me since it always tends to settle in a very obvious way on my skin which is not the effect I'm going for... This foundation looks so natural, and also offers great coverage. Awesome. Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara This mascara might just be my holy grail mascara. Does everything a good mascara should do; adds volume, length and curl. I probably used it almost every day this year (except for the past couple weeks because I've run ou
