Body Art

I have always loved tattoos and piercing ever since I was able to actually get them. I use to sit and watch shows such as LA and Miami Ink and admire their ability to portray somebody’s vision in the form of artwork. For me, I find that tattoos provide a sense of personality and originality. When it comes to my piercings I don’t usually get them for any particular reason other...

A World Full of Colour

There is no doubt that there is an increase in colour this spring and summer. It doesn’t matter what store you go in, you absolutely cannot avoid it. In addition to colour, another pretty/ feminine look that is popular this year is sheer. It can add a nice flow and sophistication to any casual look. It is also optimal because during the warmer days it allows you to look beautiful,...

Stunner Shades

Let’s face it; you can never have enough shades for the summer months. On my recent shopping adventure to Queen and Spadina, where they have a few little vintage shops, I was able to pick up 3 really cute shades. They ranged from anywhere between $5 to $10 each. I was able to get a larger and a very different variety then those in mainstream stores. Go check out the...

I fell in love with their pro longwear lipglass and chose a really nice plum colour. Over all I must say I love this lipglass I do find myself reapplying...

My Weight Loss Journey

About a year ago I told myself that enough is enough and I was going to implement major changes in my life. The most drastic change was my decision to lose weight. I have currently lost a total of 50lbs and have reached my goal that I’ve set for myself. This transition was one of the hardest things I’ve ever done in my life but I knew it had to be done. To be honest, I never even...

Aveeno fresh face!

They were originally $70.00 plus tax but I got them for half the price...

You're 'So Vain'

Its smooth application allows it to glide on nicely, leaving you with a creamy lipstick feel. I don’t find that it is long lasting but it only requires a minimal...
