Hard Candy Primer Mist

Hello loves!

I'm back and am going to try to keep my posts up to at least twice a week for all of you.

 Back at it with another primer review. Lately I've been on a primer kick, trying to find that perfect one. 

The Hard Candy Sheer Envy Hydrating Primer Mist is almost perfection in a bottle. It can be used as either a primer or setting spray. Currently, I've been using it as a primer but you can bet I'll test it out as a setting spray! Updates to come.

I like to use this by spraying the mist on my Real Techniques Sponge and then applying it to the skin. I find that the mist if sprayed directly on the face is too wet for my liking. While I didn't notice any extended wear time I did notice it helped with the foundation separation on my nose which I can't seem to stop no matter what I try (tips would be appreciated) so for that alone it gets some major bonus points. It claims to boost hydration for 12 hours, again I never keep my makeup on for that long so I can't attest to that. It certainly keeps my skin from feeling dry though which I haven't found with other primers and it smells like coconut. This retails for eight dollars CAD and for the price this can do no wrong. It keeps my skin hydrated and helps foundation separation in areas that I've always struggled with. Thank you Hard Candy for the affordable and wonderful product!

What's your favorite primer?

Collective Haul #1

Good morning everyone!

I hope you're all having a lovely Christmas with your friends & families.

I've been meaning to write this post for a while but with the holidays and what not my life's been busy. I had two dinners this weekend and was supposed to be at another one today but I don't think my body could handle any more food!

This is just a little collective haul from the past few months and a cheeky little Christmas present here and there. 

I picked up a shirt from Urban Planet. It's a long sleeve shirt with a criss cross back in a mustard yellow color. It was on sale for only seven dollars!

I've been into Sephora more than I'd like to admit in the past month and never got my birthday gift back in June so with my last purchase I mentioned I never got it and they graciously gave it to me almost six months later. I chose the Tarte set as I haven't ever tried anything from the brand. The lip is in the shade Birthday Suit and is a perfect nude, the blush gives a subtle natural flush to the cheeks. On my Sephora trips I got the Urban Decay Naked Heat with my $15 off coupon and the Huda Beauty Rose Gold palette. I looked for the Desert Dusk palette EVERYWHERE which of course was out of stock in every single Sephora in my city. Her Rose Gold palette though is amazing so I'm not disappointed in my purchase.

I decided to feature my two favorite gifts from my family.

The first being the Morphe Copper Spice palette and the second being an ELF contour palette & brush.

I've never tried anything from Morphe but have seen some gorgeous looks created with it so I can't wait to dig in and get those creative juices flowing. ELF for me has always been a hit or miss brand but the contour brush included in this is perfectly shaped and is incredibly soft. I will be sure to update you guys once I use it!

What did you guys get for Christmas?

ARITZIA #2

Hello loves.

Forgive me for it's been so long. December is such a busy month, I haven't even finished Christmas shopping yet and it's right around the corner. *Gasps*

I've got two family dinners this weekend and an oil change this week and so many other things to do. I feel like my heads going to spin round till it falls off!

So, I wanted to pop in with a quick little wish list post. Featuring, Aritizia. I know I just made an Aritizia one not long ago but it is my favorite store. I hope you guys like these. I know I enjoy writing them and creating a curated wish list. The trend this year seems to be burgundy and gray.

Blanket Scarf -  In the winter, I live in scarves and I honestly don't think there's such a thing as too many.

Bodysuit - Perfect layering pieces for the colder weather.

Suede Skirt - Just because its winter doesn't mean I stop wearing skirts or dresses. They're so easy to wear in the office.

Slip Dress - This dress, reminds me of a night gown if I'm honest. At the same time thought its also what's drawing me in to it.

Turtleneck Dress - For a Canadian you think I would own more items that keep my neck warm. Well you're wrong, I don't think I own even one turtleneck. Why not start with a turtleneck dress?

 

Lace Blouse -  Party perfection really

Skirt - I just don't feel like I own enough skirts.

Turtleneck - I'm severely lacking in winter wardrobe pieces.

 

 

What do you need for your winter wardrobe?
