Makeup Starter Kit
Makeup can be daunting and I remember vividly how I felt when I first got into makeup. I was overwhelmed and didn’t know where to start. This was before youtube and blogs though and I loved watching makeup starter kits when I first became more serious about wearing makeup. That is why I thought it…

Essence Crystal Power eyeshadow palette

Full Face of Dupes Makeup Tutorial

Catrice & Essence haul update

Shop my Stash | October 2018
It’s official: fall is here and that means I am changing up my makeup routine. In the colder months, I start using a richer base, other tones on my eyes and cheeks and my lips are more often sporting a vampy berry shade. October shows that transition nicely. I was still using a light base,…

Essence Fall/ Winter 2018
The wait is over! Many people have been asking me after I posted my Catrice video, whether I would also be doing one on the new Essence products for the Fall/ Winter 2018. Of course I would! And today is the day. Essence always releases their new line a little bit later than Catrice and…

Catrice Eye Foundation eyeshadow primer
I haven’t had much luck trying super affordable eyeshadow primers. I have used some, one even by Catrice, and none of them did the trick for me. The most successful eyeshadow primer I’ve tried at the most affordable price point is the Milani eyeshadow primer. But now there is a new contender. Catrice have released…

L’Oreal Hydra Genius Aloe Water
I have never tried any skincare by L’Oreal. Make up, nail polish, sunscreen, haircare, you name it I have tried, but I never delved into their skincare range. Until now. I spotted the new Hydra Genius Aloe Water in my local drugstore and was very intrigued. Since I couldn’t really test it, I was happy…

Quick everyday makeup look
It is only a few weeks before the summer vacation and for me, as for most teachers, this means crunch time.

If I could keep only one…
Over on my Youtube channel, someone suggested I’d do the If I Could Keep Only One tag. Started by fellow Youtuber Kelly Gooch, there was a while where many people were doing this tag. I may be a bit late to party, but I still wanted to do it. You know I love talking about…
