Product summary: This vault holds 48 shades and 3 different finishes (Matte, Creme, and Blur.) From nudes to pinks, red to vampy, the big box is a makeup lover's dream! Paid $166 CAD. It ends up being $3.45 a piece.  ***Cruelty free*** I absolutely love the variety in colours and finishes. You have so many ranges of colors for any season/occasion and any type of makeup look. What drew me in were all the neautral/nude shades. A nude colour looks amazing on me with my complexion.  I'm not one that lines her lips then applies lipstick because oftentimes lips are the last thing I apply and by then I'm already needing to be out of the door. So, I tend to apply lipstick in a hurry or in the car. I love these lippies because I can leave a bunch of them in different handbags. There are quite a few neutral shades so most of the time they will pair well with what i am wearing and how I have done my makeup.  Rating: 5 stars on 5! I adore how each finish looks on my lips whether I wa...

 ***This review will contain spoilers*** Summary: Saved from a car accident by the Water Goddess, photojournalist Isabel visits the time of King Arthur to seduce Lancelot du Lac away from Queen Guinevere. What a terrible way to end what was otherwise a phenomenal book series. The first few books in the series definitely got me hooked but then I noticed a decline in quality of writing making my way through the series which leads me to this crapfest. The start of the book was so promising but then there was no development of character or plot.  I was originally excited to crack this book open and get on my reading journey because the previous book, Warrior Rising, ended with the protagonists heading to an island called Avalon which I was thinking they would make a cameo in this book but alas...guess she couldn't find a way to tie it in like she could with all the other books in the series.  This had so much potential to be the best book in the series but it was like Cast lo...

The OG Youtube community days would consistently mention/use Nars, especially, the Laguna bronzer. It has taken me years to finally have my hands on the most iconic bronzer. As I have said before, It's taken me a long time to properly incorporate bronzer in my makeup routine. Being a pale girly, my go to is using blush to add color to my face. But I have come a long way and now I am no longer afraid of using it, however, I still very much use a light hand when applying it.  Rating: I'm giving this iconic bronzer 4 stars on 5! ...

 Product Summary: A gentle and hydrating facial cleanser formulated with antioxidants and skin-soothing ingredients. It helps remove daily impurities while leaving the skin feeling soft, smooth, and refreshed. Cost: 30 euros.  ***Cruelty free*** I first received this product in a Ipsy bag which is a monthly beauty subscription service where you get 5 items from sample to full size for around 30$ Canadian.  I have been on a search to find a daily facial cleanser that both cleans the skin without leaving my skin feeling dry and stripped away of necessary oils. I go to the gym 5-6 times a week and I do cardio every single time. So, I'm sweating a lot and by the time I get back home I just want to clean my face.  It's my first time using a product from this brand and I have been so impressed! It doesn't irritate my skin at all while also cleansing my skin where it leaves it feeling squeaky clean!  I love that it keeps my skin hydrated and doesn't leave it feeling dr...

***This review will contain spoilers*** Summary: Confined to a convent for her own protection, Princess Fern is resigned to leading a sheltered life. Until King Ragnar storms in, demanding the bride he was promised! Fern must exchange one prison for another, yet her marriage feels shockingly like liberation. As does the dormant passion her captor ignites…Ragnar has claimed his throne and now, his queen—if only his warrior’s demons were so easily fought. But Fern resurrects the humanity he’d thought lost...and stokes an inferno that threatens to obliterate the convenient boundaries of their royal union! Yet again I found another book while grocery shopping! I don’t know what is going on lately but I keep coming across books while out in the ‘wild’ that I feel compelled to purchase.  When I originally read the summary, I was certain it was set during medieval times because modern day royalty isn’t as exciting in comparison to centuries prior. It definitely threw me for a loop when I ...
