tarte Kiss Bliss Tarteist™ Creamy Matte Lip Paint & Crayon Set Swatches

I'm continuing my matte lip obsession into 2017.
 Right now, I'm a playing with the tarte Kiss Bliss Tarteist™ Creamy Matte Lip Paint & Crayon Set (SALE $46 CAN).
This 10 piece kit is perfect for someone like me who want to try multiple colours.

In the set you get: 5 tarteist Creamy Matte Lip Paints & 5 lip liners. FYI- If you want to get the most out of your matte colours, a lip liner is NEEDED. Every time I quickly decide to skip the liner with the drier shades it ends up being a MESS.

Five Last Minute Sephora Gift Ideas

Today was the first day I actually went go buy presents and it wasn't bad. You know I had to stop in Markville mall and pop into Sephora too. A lot of Holiday goodies are still available! Did you see my Sephora Collection Shine and Sparkle post from yesterday. I'm still in awe of the PRO brush set!
A definite must have. 

Caryl Baker Visage Holiday 2016 True North Lipstick- Notre Dame

The holidays are here! 

For the past two weeks, I have seen some Holiday collections come out that I am super excited to play with! Today I'm going to highlight an amazing lipstick from Caryl Baker Visage Holiday 2016. 

This holiday they have a collection called True North Beauty. While there were a lot of items to love with in the collection- once I opened this lipstick.... I was so excited to swatch it.

This week, I had the opportunity to visit Deco De Mode- Beauty Bar for a Beautylicious promo.

It's such a lovely space on Scollard St.

I got the $50 Gel Toe Pedicure deal.
Ladies- Just because it's Fall that's doesn't mean that we have to neglect our feet. Plus it's gel so I know that it will last longer. I used OPI gel Red.

My first impression of Deco de Mode was that it was super clean and swanky!

I loved the comfortable pedicure chairs & decor. There are three main services that you can get here: Waxing/Threading, Nails & Lashes. I'm totally excited to go back and try their lashes service.

Dermablend Professional is now in Canada!

As a makeup artist, one product which I would see in a lot of kits was Dermablend. I had the opportunity to attend an exclusive launch of Dermablend in Canada! Starting on October 8th, they are now sold exclusively in drugstores.

If you don't know anything about them please know that they're the #1 Dermatologist recommended camouflage brand in the US. Also known for their high pigment content and blendability.

They have been around for over 35 years changing lives by addressing all skin concerns:

• redness
• dark circles
• uneven complexion
• vitiligo
• rosacea
• tattoos
• scars
• acne

Even if you don't have any of these issues. This is for anyone who desires full coverage. Brides who have a problem with their makeup running would really benefit from using this product. The line features a good range of powders, foundations and concealers. FYI I'm in one of darkest shades in the line- Cinnamon.  Not sure if this is for you? Think about it this way.. It's dermatologist tested, allergy tested, sensitive skin tested, non-comedogenic, non-acnegenic and fragrance-free. 

In other words.. you need to get your hands on this ASAP!

Fall: Quo Brush Set

 Fall make up is EVERYTHING TO ME!!!! Absolutely one of my favourite times in the MUA world hands-down. Give me a vampy lips- eggplant smoky eye and a gold highlight and I'm good. 

I have actually been playing with a lot of Fall products from the beginning of summer. Perks of getting being a blogger and getting things sent a few items in advance. I had a few cute items from Quo show up on my doorstep but my favourite was the brush set.
