Spiced Beauty: Best of Beauty 2015

In 2015, I found some holy grail products. I literally don't leave the house without any of them... and because of that- I'm going to celebrate them! I hope you fall in love with them too.

NUDESTIX Eyebrow Stylus Pencil & Gel ($28.00 CAN)
My brows have never looked better. I'm serious!
The brown/black pencil is the perfect colour for my brows.
Not too dark or ashy. The gel has great staying power.
This is a 5 start product.



Buy it here: NUDESTIX Eyebrow Stylus Pencil & Gel

Hands down the BEST foundation I've ever used in life!
My colour: COLOR 178 = Y535 - Chestnut
No streaking! 40 shades to choose from.
Not 3 shades! 40 shades with different undertones to suit you!

This is the first skincare product that I actually finished in years.
It didn't irritate my skin or leave any spots.
It hydrated my skin. I'd totally recommend it!



Indeed Labs Fillume Volumising Moisturiser can be found at Shopper's Drug Mart.

This was the first year that I really embraced my curls.
Now that I've tried this product I'm not sure how I would try anything else.
It's not sticky and a little bit goes a LONG way.

Aunt Jackie's Curls & Coils Don't Shrink Flaxseed Elongating Curling Gel can be found at aonebeauty.com.

Three words: Creamy Matte Goodness
Plus extremely long lasting!
Probably one the best liquid lipsticks on the market right now.




Have you tried any of these brands?

Currently Obsessed: Aunt Jackie's Curls & Coils Don't Shrink Flaxseed Elongating Curling Gel

When it comes to hair, I think that everyone should have the opportunity to have fun.
Wear protective styles! Play with your texture!
Overall DO you!

Since I've been doing me for the past two months, I decided to try out more natural styles.
A Canada based beauty store named Aonebeauty.com allowed me to try out some brands that they sell. I have a beauty supply store near me but it's so popular that everything is always sold out!

Shopping online gives me..
A) More selection.
B) The opportunity to try lot of the products that my fave USA bloggers are talking about :)
C) Deals and allows me to save money!!!

Let me point out that I'm not being paid to promote anything. 
I'm just a bride-to-be/new home owner who now pays bills and can't depend on mommy and daddy anymore.. LOL!

Moving on.... I have a very TIGHT and defined curl pattern. Shrinkage is NOT my friend. I've always heard really good things about elongating curling gels. I decided to give Aunt Jackie's Curls & Coils Don't Shrink Flaxseed Elongating Curling Gel ($8.99 CAN) a try. 

Now I'm currently obsessed!!!
Main ingredients:

  • Moisturizing conditioners
  • Flaxseed
  • Shea Butter 
  • Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • Omega-3 fatty acids

I didn't know that flaxseed is a natural remedy for scalp health! 
It's anti-thinning and promotes hair growth.
It's best to use it on clean hair. Like fresh out the shower hair! 
When it's slightly damp, I take a nice quarter sized amount in my hands and apply it from root to ends. I tried it on hair with product and it didn't go so well when I wanted curls but worked well with twist outs. Just something to think about.


Have you tried a curl elongating curling gel before?
