My love for Cream Shadows

When summer arrives, I usually reduce all makeup and resort to some minimal looks. In order to achieve these minimal looks, I have turned towards cream products. Now, it's time for me to share with you my love for the cream shadows. The perfect tool for the lazy girl that wants a put-together look without spending 20 minutes in front of the mirror.

The Land of Treasures !

This weekend, I decided to head to my hairdresser's for a little pick me up haircut. I wanted to shorten the length slightly in order to reduce my getting-ready time in the morning. This little trip to the hairdresser led to a very short hair situation, which I was not to fond of at the beginning, but I've had short hair before, even shorter than what I have now and it's nothing I can't get use to.

 

Okay, too much rambling. Long story short....In order to style my hair, I needed to purchase a smaller curling iron, where do I go, Winners.

Winners is the land of adventure, the land where you can find the prettiest and most coveted treasures.

Whilst browsing the beauty section, I came across something I never thought could be found at Winners.......

To all my Canadian beauty junkies, behold ! You better be sitting down...

 

THIS is the treasure I found

I couldn't believe my eyes.

Retail price 38$CAN

I paid 24,99$CAN

Do I need to say more ?! Check your local Winners, amongst these Chanel Lipsticks, I also spotted a lot of Dior quads for 39,99$CAN. Winners is definitely pumping up the quality !

Check it out and let me know what you find. Enjoy the rest of the week !

Nail of the Week : Chanel Dragon

 

In time of need : a classic red is always your good option !

 

Chanel's Dragon is the first ever Chanel nailpolish I purchased and that's where the addiction began.

I've had this particular nailpolish bottle for more than 4 years and it's intact. No gloopyness, as liquid as the first day.

 

 

I must admit Chanel nailpolishes are not cheap, they retail around 28$CAN and they do have a bad reputation of chipping after a couple of days.

 

I haven't had any problems with chipping with these nailpolishes, but I think it all depends on the color you purchase.

 

If you are going to purchase a Chanel nailpolish, you must either invest in a classic color or a color that no other company has replicated. For any other color, refer to your favorite drugstore nailpolish rack.

 

This year I want to broaden my horizon in the nailpolish world and discover new companies, I was thinking Deborah Lippmann and Butter London, but do you girls have any recommendations of brands or even specific colors that you know I would love, let me know !

Enjoy !

Top 5 Makeup Highlighters

I decided to transform this You Tube Tag into a Blog tag and to present to you my Top 5 Highlighters.

Highlighters are a makeup item that are not used by most women, but that can definitely brighten up a dull face. You do not have to apply it everyday, but on a night out, it reflects the perfect amount of light of your face and appears beautifully on pictures.

For all you that do not know where to apply your highlighter, this one is for you, because it is very easy to become a Disco ball if the highlighter is not applied correctly.

Here is a small image to show you the perfect place of your face to apply highlighter to get that J.Lo Glow !

But note to self : DO NOT GO OVERBOARD !

To pursue in the same direction, I wanna share with you my TOP 5 Highlighters of choice.

1) Marcelle Highlighting Powder

2) Chanel Lucky Stripes Powder (limited edition)

3) MAC Mineralize Skin Finish in Blonde (limited edition)

4) Dior Shimmer Powder in Amber Diamond

5) Dior Shimmer Powder in Rose Diamond

 

 

If I had to recommend one highlighter that every girl should have in her makeup kit to brighten up any makeup look, it would be the Dior Amber Diamond !

 

 

Go definitely take a browse at your Dior counter :)

 

 

Enjoy !
