Sally Hansen Lacey Lilac
Every spring I wear this polish to death. Sally Hansen Hard as Nails Xtreme wear in 270 Lacey Lilac is just as the name would suggest; it is a beautiful light lilac colour. I shook the bottle up quite well for the picture so you can’t really tell, but there is a significant amount gone, about a centimetre. I’d say that’s pretty impressive for a nail polish! I really like the formula of these polishes, and have quite a few in my ‘collection’ (if you could even call it that). Also, you can often find them on sale at your drugstore for ~$1.99; can’t beat that! Do you have a…

The Body Shop Fuji Green Tea
(Source) I was quite intrigued by The Body Shop’s release of the Fuji Green Tea range, mostly because of the Bath Tea. It seemed like a strange concept, that as the bath lover I am, I just had to try it. The bath tea itself is essentially bath salts mixed with real green tea leaves. The scent is truly wonderful, I felt so relaxed. You have to buy the Fuji Green Tea bath infuser separately for $5, which is kind of annoying. You put a scoop of the bath tea in it and let it ‘brew’ in your warm bath. The infuser allows the bath salts to dissolve into your…

A Week of Favourites
So, I thought every once in a while I’d throw together a few items that I’ve been loving for the past week and share it with you guys. So, let me know if you want me to continue to do this. Mascara: Too Faced Better Than Sex – I have a sample size of this mascara that I’ve been using all week. It provides the perfect amount of volume in my opinion. And I love the bristle wand, as opposed to a plastic one. I will definitely buy the full size when this is done. http://seph.me/1hTJqKX Lip Combo: Essence lip liner in 11 In The Nude, Cargo lip gloss in…

Drugstore Haul
Not that I need an excuse to shop but, Shopper’s Drug Mart was advertising their spend $75 get $25 worth of Optimum Points ‘sale’, ‘event’, I’m not sure what you’d call it. I think this is a pretty good deal, especially because I shop there quite a lot and collect the points anyway. Along with Easter chocolates for Max, I bought a few makeup items for myself, which were all on sale this week as well! First, I picked up a backup of my Simple Cleansing Facial Wipes. These are my favourite makeup wipes because they are super gentle on my sensitive skin, and also do a great job of…

My First Ipsy Bag
My love for subscription boxes probably stems from watching a ton of unboxing videos on YouTube each month. The prospect of getting a small present for myself in the mail every month for a small price is just so exciting! The price of the Ipsy subscription is $10/month (or $110 for a yearly subscription) plus $4.95/shipping (to Canada). I tihnk this is a great deal for the amount, and quality or products you receive each month. Let’s take a look at what I got. The month’s theme is #IpsyLOVE for Valentine’s Day. First off, the products come in a cute makeup bag each month. This month’s is hot pink will…
