NARS Yachiyo Brush



I am absolutely loving this NARS Yachiyo brush right now, it is perfect for a light contour or blush application, but my favourite use for it is to highlight the tops of my cheekbones. It's pointy enough for a sublet highlight but soft and dense enough to pick up just the right amount of product.

Laura Mercier - Higlighter


For someone who has a true love affair with all cosmetic things, I have found my holy grail highlighting product that makes all other highlighters irrelevant to me. It is no surprise that Laura Mercier’s products are outstanding, to say the least, but this particular one is truly phenomenal, and a must have in every woman’s makeup vanity. If you like looking luminous and youthful this will help you achieve that glowing complexion. Available wherever Laura Mercier products are sold, make sure to pick up the matte radiance baked powder compact in the colour 01 (Golden Nude), you will be wonderfully surprised and glad you too found this gorgeous beauty product.

Sunday Night Sephora Event


This past Sunday night I passed by my local Sephora for a special appreciation even that they were having, naturally I couldn't walk out with one single item. I had to pick up some more goodies to fully enjoy my time at my favourite beauty store.

La Mer Body Tan - Worth It or Not?




Luxury tan is no longer a dream since it appears that the renowned skincare line company La Mer has come out with a lotion for the face and body promising to deliver gradual tan. But for a whooping $85.00 per bottle it is my opinion that the beach should come with it!!! Seriously, I am all for quality beauty products, and often find myself on the brink of bankruptcy due to my undying love for skincare products no matter the cost, but even I have my limits. To be fair, I haven't personally tried this product, nonetheless, an item so versatile and quickly gone through should not cost that much, especially since there are so many other alternatives that do the exact same thing at a fraction of the cost. So here is my question to my sweet readers, where do you draw the line between cosmetic love and obsession, and sheer label love and devotion? Do you buy products for what they are or who they are made by?

Perfume Of The Month - Bond No. 9 I LOVE NEW YOR ~ For Mothers






From the very first moment that I smelled this Bond No. 9 I love New York for Mothers at Sephora I knew that I was sold for life. This easy-to-wear eau de parfum is luxury inside a bottle with a scent that seduces even the least romantic ones.


It is at the very top of my favourite perfume list (post coming soon) and I adore wearing it both during the day and night. Make sure to ask for a sample next time you pass by Sephora, you'll thank me later!

Hair Inspiration ~ Kim Kardashian






I usually am not one to copy a specific hairstyle or colour, on the contrary I almost always try to strep outside of the "norm" and go with a colour that is not so out there, which is why I had my deep red (don't panic... it's the colour of red wine) for so long. But to be quite honest I'm tired of the same thing and want to make a change, and so throughout my quest to find the perfect cut and colour for my complexion I stumbled on these pictures of none other than the beautiful Kim Kardashian. I love everything about this colour, cut, and even highlights. Its a gorgeous colour that I think would look good on my fair and petite complexion. Let's home that by my next visit to my hair stylist I will have decided to bit the bullet and make the change I have been wanting for quite some time now. What do you guys think of this look?

Zoya ~ Audrina




This nail polish color by Zoya called Audrina is my latest purchase from our local beauty store and I adore it. I honestly can't remember that last time I was so excited to paint my nails with a specific colour and this one is just the perfect shade of creamy deep purple with a slight hint of raspberry. It is so gorgeous that I had to repaint my nails with it for a second time in a row, and that NEVER happens! It only goes to show how unique and gorgeous this colour truly is and I highly suggest everyone to give it a try, I promise you will not be disappointed.

Dior Travel Brush Set



A deluxe travel brush set by none other than Christian Dior... the only sad this is that it was part of a holiday collection and is almost impossible to get. So the purpose of this post is not to mock, but to try and find this beauty somehow.

The look is the perfect smoky eye / nude lip combination that I have seen thus far. It is absolutely stunning and would look good on most skin tones and complexions.
