SHEET MASK | Yadah Soothing Jelly Pack

I guess now that we are all on lockdown for the rest of the month, I am absolutely determined to blog about alllll of the sheet masks I have had notes for for the last 1.5 years! When I first embarked on this sheet mask mission, I literally wanted to do a blog review for EVERY SINGLE MASK I ever tried, but now after trying A LOT of of them, there are some that just aren't very interesting to talk about for an entire post so I started reviewing select ones with cool ingredients, were super expensive and we needed to find out WHY? or looked funny/pretty once I had it on my face. The Yadah Soothing Jelly Pack is about the packaging and a very weird texture so let's have a closer look, shall we?

NAILS | The Last Decade #CBBxManiMonday

Today's ManiMonday is not going to be your typical one because thanks to all of the extra hand-washing we are doing to do our part in preventing the spread of COVID-19, my nails have taken a beating and three have broken down to the skin so they are quite sore. The air is also quite dry which compounded with all of the hand-washing makes for dryness all around. I even had a nosebleed this morning which I have not had since 1998! 20 years since I've had a nosebleed so it was a bit jarring to have it happen this morning. What I thought might be nice to do and still keep with my Monday nail theme is to showcase some of my favourite manicure from the last decade. Probably something I should have done back in January, but now that we are all doing our civic duties and trying to stay inside, what better time than the present?

MAKEUP | Charlotte Tilbury Magic Foundation - I've Found "The One"!

Last Fall, I finally got a chance to try a Charlotte Tilbury foundation and it was very disappointing. After years of loving her eye, lip, cheek and skincare products (dry sheet mask please!) I was heartbroken when the Airbrush Flawless Foundation just did not work for me (see my sad face here), but there was still another foundation to try that people seemed to like and that was the Magic Foundation!

SHEET MASK | Glamglow Glowlace Radiance Boosting Hydration Sheet Mask

I am sort of about to start a staycation next week, but have the next three days off in a row which in retail is a real rarity so this is sort of my "vacation eve" if you will. I have been feeling a little burnt out which I guess makes sense as the last time I had a solid chunk of time off was back in October. I had been feeling fairly productive at work (not really at home because I can never do a great job of being productive in both areas) and then March started and I have felt a bit slower. Hopefully the time off will give me a chance to recharge and OBVIOUSLY wear more sheet masks like this purdy lace one from Glamglow!

NAILS | Throwback to Nerd Lacquer's Antisocial Media #CBBxManiMonday

Whew, well that was an unintended break! I worked a 6-day work week last week and thought I would do my blog catch up over the last three days I had off, but as it turns out all my body had energy for were two social outings, grocery shopping and cleaning the house! I had a total of four naps in the last three days and it felt nice to chill for a bit even if I still felt incredibly guilty for not being more productive. Having cooked dinner fairly late today, I didn't really have a lot of time for the nails so I decided to dive into one of my indie untrieds from years ago with the new defunct Nerd Lacquer.

NAILS | Green Geodes #CBBxManiMonday

I feel like I am about to fall asleep which makes sense as it's midnight and I am only now getting onto the computer to do some typing so this post is going to be an efficient one! This month's #CBBxManiMonday theme is "Green and Blue" so whether use both shades or just one in our manis this month is all up to us! I adore both colours, but don't really get to use green a lot other than around Halloween and even then, "Halloween green" is usually mucous-like in colour. This month, I vow to bring out all the beautiful greens I have been stowing away!
