Favourite Fall Nail Colour?

Fall nails can range from neutrals to the deepest plums/blacks.
With that being said, I personally find that deeper tones look really nice on my skin tone.

Currently, I've been trying out CND Vinylux Weekly Polish. 
Not sure how I feel about the line yet but this deep blacken plum is gorgeous!

Fall Lip Inspiration Light-Medium-Dark

Fall is here and it's coming fast and furious. I honestly felt that we didn't have a great summer in Canada but I totally made up for it by jet-setting to the Caribbean. Totally worth it. 
Now I'm back to deal with the cold.

I've said this plenty times before but I love Fall makeup. I think its the lips!
My favourites range from red to a deep wine.

Here are examples of the perfect Fall red for various skin tones.

Light
Megan Fox

Kim Kardashian

Medium
Nicole Scherzinger 

Rihanna

Dark/Deep
Jessica White


Brandy

Must haves for Fall- Glasses

I love fall fashion/ make up. Rich tones such as ox blood & cedar browns excite me. What is your ultimate fall makeup look? Mine would be a wine coloured lips and black liner for drama. BUT! You know you can’t have the look without the clothing and accessories.

One quick way and easy way to change up your look is by switching up your glasses! One of my favourite online glasses retailers www.clearlycontacts.ca has some great styles which would look great on anyone this Fall.

First, let me start of by saying online shopping for glasses is a unique experience. When I got my first pair from them last year- I had no issues. Mind you it was my second pair- so I totally knew what to expect. I found a pair that I loved and knew it would fit my face shape/nose. I then entered the details exactly as how they appeared on my prescription from my eye doctor. Filled out other necessary information any and they were at my door in no time.

Dsquared spotted red brown

$199.00

Marc by Marc Jacobs Black Crystal
$139.00

Hello Kitty Raspberry
$79.00
Each of them unique and the perfect “must have” this season!

The Body Shop Fall 2013: Honeymania, Colour Crush & Camomile Make-up Removal Collection


Yes you seen the f-word in the title. F-A-L-L! Yes I said it. It's coming and we need to talk about it.
In my opinion fall has the most gorgeous colour palettes and inspiration. 

I had the opportunity to attend an amazing Body Shop event back in June. 
It was the first time in a while that I've "ohhh" and "aweee" over products. 

Let's start off with Honeymania! I love honey. 
Grew up with it and I would never get tired of it.
Trust me everything smells as good as it looks!

Honeymania features for rich community fair trade honey that comes from the Ethiopian rainforest.
 The line has everything you need such as lip balm, bar soap, bubble bath melt, shower gel, eau de toilette, body scrub and butter. (In-stores Oct 7, 2013)

I should add the soap is the lowest price point starting at $4.00 dollars 
and the highest is the body butter at $20.00. 

This August is all about color!
The new colour crush collection has 30 Mono eyeshadows to choose from. One of my favorite things about the shadow was the pigmentation and the staying power. These eyeshadows are blend of community fair trade Brazil nut oil, marula oil, honey, organic virgin coconut oil and sesame seed oil. Everything is 100% cruelty free. Each shadow cost $10.


I could not leave the lipstick table. The new colour crush lipstick collection is something that you should definitely get your hands on. 24 vivid colors that range from the brightest reds to beautiful nudes and the sweetest pinks. Each lipstick is affordable at the price of $13.
Look at the pigmentation!!

One product that should be on every beauty blogger list this August is the new camomile make-up removal collection. I fell in love with the cleansing butter ($16) &Muslin Cloth ($8.50).
