BEAUTY | July 2025 Ipsy Glam Bag

Purchased by me

Heyyyyy, we are now in July for our Glam Bags (renamed IPSY Original) and then after this, I just have September to share with you all and then we are all caught up for the holidays! Though some of the previous bags I have shared had products that seemed appropriate for throughout the year, this one definitely feels more geared towards the summer so if that bums you out, I apologize!

MAKEUP | Christian Louboutin Le Fluide Sublimating Fluid Foundation (With Before and After Video)

Purchased by me

Foundation is still one of my most favourite makeup products to try and even though I have slowed down on other types of makeup products, a new foundation always peaks my interest. The Christian Loubotin Le Fluide Sublimating Fluid Foundation has been on my wishlist since its release last year and I finally picked it up a few weeks ago!  

SHEET MASK | The Creme Shop x Miffy Dewy Dreams Hydrating Animated Essence Sheet Mask

 

Purchased by me

I got sick this past Wednesday and five days in, I think I am on the tail end of things, but I'm still very congested and coughing. I don't know WHERE I managed to catch this as no one at work is sick AND I have been on my own at home for the past two weeks as my husband has been traveling. I drive to work and don't take transit so the only place left is the handful of clients I have interacted with over the last 2 weeks which seems unlikely, but I suppose not impossible. I have been suffering a little on my own and I am glad to see some light at the end of the tunnel!

BEAUTY | September 2025 Favourites

Press samples

I realize that the last time I did a favourites post, it was for September 2024...this is almost like an anniversary! As my poor nails need to grow back in order to paint them (I sadly did not have any backup posts), I thought doing a cozy little favourites post would be nice to launch the Fall season!

SHEET MASK | Mad Beauty True Loves Kiss Face Mask

Purchased by me

Happy Thanksgiving weekend to all of my fellow Canadians! I am working this long weekend so we kept our festivities to a minimum by just having a family brunch today and then taking it easy for the rest of the day which felt very needed. I still feel like I need a break, but I don't think I am going to get it this month or next which takes up to December where I will be exhausted from retail life. I haven't figured out how to replenish my energy stores yet. I feel like I am still at the peak of life so feeling this tired all the time just doesn't seem like a good use of my days off! Someone tell me what you do to stay energized!

NAILS | Dior #908 Bold Black Swatch #CBBxManiMonday

Purchased by me

Easing into the Halloween spirit with some dramatic nails and with this new nail shape, they look extra spooky! Can you believe it is October already? Here in Vancouver, it feels like Fall in the morning and Summer in the afternoons! I'm sure the rains will come soon, but I whipped out my first turtleneck dress last week and I realized that I love autumn/winter work clothing way more than summer work clothes because I'm just always hot in the summer, but you still have to cover your arms and legs in a professional environment so I just never really know what to wear.
