Another Spring Night Out Look

Hey everyone! So I've been really into night out/more dramatic looks recently. I do try and keep them light and fresh since it's spring though. Here's another one I created with really simple eyes and a deep lip color. Hope you all enjoy!

Ugh, bad brow day :[

I can't remember exactly what products I used for this particular look, but I used the Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette for the eyes and a combination of NYX butter lipstick in Licorice and Nyx Butter Gloss in Sugar Cookie for the lips. I guess this could be a great fall look as well. Altough if it were only for me, I'd wear fall fashion year round :P Anyway. let me know what you think in the comments! Would you wear something like this during spring time? Do you follow "makeup rules"?

Casual Spring Outfit Inspiration

Hey everyone! Here's a little spring outfit inspiration I came up with! I couldn't choose one pair of shoes so I added both, each a good option depending on how you're feeling that day! The boots make the outfit edgier whereas the ballet flats give it a more refined, urban look. Would you wear something like this? Let me know in the comments!

Flirty Night Out Look for Spring using Darling Girl Cosmetics

So even thought it's still cold out here (it snowed earlier this week), it's now officially spring and I'm excited. I'm trying to get into it even though the weather is failing me. So since I can't do spring clothing yet, I've decided I would go for spring makeup! At least my interpretation of it. I also felt like playing around with my Darling Girl Cosmetics shadow which I hadn't used lately (not gonna lie, I haven't been wearing much makeup this winter). Anyhow, this is what I went for! It's a night out flirty look for spring, the skin is super dewy and fresh and the makeup is a pretty shimmery purple-ish eye. I really enjoy this look, what do you all think?

• Urban Decay Pulp Fiction Palette

 Shocker, I'm not wearing any false lashes here! I don't even know when was the last time I didn't wear any on the blog. I didn't feel like putting them on today. Also, my hair hates it when I try to curl it so it's pretty wild, just ignore it :P

I got brown lashes back in November when I went to NYC. I've been wanting to do a makeup look with them forever, but I couldn't think of how I would make them work.

10 Things I love About Spring

1) Longer days, meaning you can spend an evening out and it's still light outside
2) Eating on terrasses
3) Flowers in Bloom - Lilacs are my favorites ♥
4) Weather getting warmer - No need for heavy coat and boots anymore!
5) The feminine fashion - Pastels, florals and lace are my favorites.
6) Birds chirping in the morning - They all migrate south during the winter so I'm always glad to hear them sing once Spring rolls around and they come back.
7) Being able to enjoy walks outside again - Because who wants to go out when it's -20 outside?
8) Motivation to be healthy again - Winter is just unmotivating both in terms of exercise and diet.
9) No more heating - Meaning it's going to be less dry in the apartment and my electricity bill will be much more acceptable, yay!
10) No more snow :D 

11) BONUS : Roadtrips! - I'm going to be road tripping to Toronto for the weekend very soon. Cannot wait to blast music in the car with all the windows rolled down. It's going to be great ♥

Those are the 10 11 things I love about Spring. What are your favorite things about this season? Let me know in the comments! Also, don't forget to check out my Pinterest Spring board!

Sweet Cherry Blossom Makeup Inspired by Darling Girl Cosmetics

Hey everyone! Today I have more of an understated look to share on here. It's a sweet pink and purple look that kind of reminds me of a romantic spring day when the cherry blossoms are in bloom. Kind of a weird time to be thinking about Cherry Blossoms and perhaps this looks would work better on Valentine's day than in the middle of Fall, but I was playing around with my Darling Girl Cosmetics shadows and this is what I came up with. I love how soft and feminine it is! 

Since the colors I used have a colored sheen to them, they're even more stunning in real life. They appear somewhat muted when photographed. Since the colors are hard to photograph, I'll add links to the colors that I used so that you can check out good swatches of them on the DGC website. Their swatches really show the iridescence and color shifts of the shades.

On an unrelated topic, I'm moving (yes, again!) very soon. If everything goes according to plan, I'll be moving around mid June in a new building a few minutes away from where I live. It's closer to the university and much much nicer! We haven't had confirmation yet, so I'm anxiously waiting to know if we got it. Wish me luck!

That's all for today :) Hope you enjoyed this Haul!

April 2013 Beauty Favorites!

Hey everyone! Now that April is over, it's time for monthly favorites ♥

April has been quite hectic for me with school and everything, so the month went by super fast. I can hardly believe may is just around the corner already! It's finally getting warmer here in Quebec City so that's definitely making me quite excited for summer. My trimester will be over in just a little over three days, but unfortunately, my summer trimester is starting next Monday :( 

---

Anyway, let's get started with my Beauty Favorites 

  I have quite a few new favorites to share with you all this month :) 

♥ Neutrogena Oil Free Makeup Remover - This is a repurchase, just as gentle and efficient as I remembered! It works great with waterproof mascara too (which I have been into lately).

♥ Equate Facial Cleansing Towelettes - I probably mentioned this a million times on my blog now. I just cannot get enough of these! I was super glad to get these again in April since I had run out and had to get by with another brand for a couple weeks. 

♥ Samani Makeup Brush Cleaner - This is very new to me. I've never had brush cleaner before. I really like this, it gets the product out of my brushes instantly so I can use them to apply multiple colors.

♥ L'Oréal Kids Tangle Tamer - Seems to work ok for detangling (my hair isn't all that tangly usually), but the smell is absolutely fabulous. It smells like yummy pears, it's awesome :D

♥ Maybelline Great Lash Mascara in Clear - I've gotten into filling my eyebrows lately (especially if I'm going to take pictures, it looks a lot more put together). This is a cheap and efficient way to keep my brows looking tidy.

♥ Rimmel Scandal'Eyes Kohl in Nude - I love this on the waterline. It makes your eyes look bright and awake. If I'm going for a natural look, I much prefer nude to white. This pencil is super creamy as well, I wish it came in more colors.

♥ Bonne Bell Liplites - Not sure what this one if called but it's  a creamy medium pink color. It smells like vanilla cake, yummy!

♥ NYX Eyeshadow Base in Nude - This is a great primer for eye shadow, it really helps the shadow stick to the lids. I also love that it is tinted because it hides all the little veins in my eyes.

♥ Kiss 05 Lashes - These look great on. They're not too overpowering, but they're still long and dramatic! They're also super comfortable and light.

♥ Sally Hansen Nail Polish in Pacific Blue - I've had this for a couple years now and it hasn't dried up. Love this color for spring :)

♥ Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette - I bought two of these at the beginning of the month. One for myself and one for my giveaway. I have been using mine constantly. I love everything about it! I think I might do a full review about it soon, would you be interested in that? Let me know!

♥ Lush Shampoo Bar in Seanik - I'm super impressed with this! The smell is very nice (even though I was skeptical at first, it seemed a bit salty for a hair product), it leaves my hair feeling super clean and weightless and it rinses off really well. To my surprise it lathers very well too. I love this.

---

And now my Favorite Accessories for this month

♥ Bracelets from Ardène (except the gold bracelet on the left which is from Suzy) - This month I have been loving the combination of gold, white and turquoise. It looks great paired with peach, pink and cream :)

Hair clip from Ardène - I got it from a surprise baggie (Yes my friends and I  still get those 2 for 5$ surprise bags because we're just like little kids :P) Usually we get mostly rubbish from them, (once my friend got an awesome owl necklace though) but this time I got this hair clip. At first I didn't think much of it, until I tried it in my hair. It's is so strong for it's tiny size I can't even believe it. I have a ton of hair and it can hold my bun all day, no hair bands or bobby pins required. I'm getting a million of these for sure!

♥ Necklaces from Forever 21 - The first one is a dainty bow and the other one has an awesome feather on it. I love them because I feel like I can pair these with so many outfits!

That's all for this month's beauty favorites! What were your favorites this month? Let me know! I'm on the hunt for good Spring/Summer bright nail polishes :)
