Re- POST: Beauty So Clean

Thanks to Linda over at myprettypinkbox.com I have had the opportunity to review July's MPBB promo.

As scary as this sounds bacteria can grow on your make up.... Unfortunately that means you can get pink eye, cold sores and other nasty stuff I don't even want to talk about...

This is where BeautySoClean™ comes in!!

BeautySoClean™ is a revolutionary line of cosmetic sanitizing products;
a new beauty care regimen developed by professional makeup artists with an innovative system that effectively cleans, rejuvenates and removes bacteria from cosmetic products without altering the makeup in any way.

I personally feel like you don't have to be a make up artist to enjoy this product! Sanitizing our is almost NEVER talked about! It's one of the most important parts to keeping us beautiful :)

I would give this product 5/5 stars because it has made my day soo much easier! It's the perfect size, so I can throw it in my traincase, make up bag or purse. I  swap on makeupalley and having BeautySoClean™ allows me to sanitize everything I have on the spot!

**Of course I had to get some HD pictures for you too see how amazing this product is!!**

I got the spray and wipes.

The wipes are small and convenient!

The wipes are perfect for lipsticks,pencils,lipsticks..

How does it work?

Spray: Spray 15 cm away from powder based products.

I also use mine on my brushes and lip products!!
Wipe: Wipe gently to sanitizeAre you still NOT convinced??

Beauty Ramble: How you confident without makeup?

I have been wearing mascara for 13 years now. My obssession started in grade 7, when I got my first tube of Avon Mascara. I will never forget how just wearing a few coats made my lashes look amazing.

Since then Mascara has been my favorite on the go product. I will admit I've cut down wearing it drastically now that I drive to work. Skipping my 5 to 10 minutes face routine gets me into work & out early.

All of this brings me to my question for you all..

How you confident without makeup?

 

From 1 to 10 on the confidence scale .. I'd rate my self a 10!

Until I look in the mirror and see a stray brow hair or chapped lips..LOL

So ladies tell me what you think :)

How big is your make-up bag?

Recently I switched my make-up bag to something much bigger & heavy duty.

Lucky for me Dickies Canada sent me this sample bag to try out :D

Since I carry a huge bag..lol. I can fit this case in there easily. In my old bag I couldn't fit any make-up brushes!!

As you can see I fit a full sized powder brush from Crown Brushes in there. Plus I have room and another compartment.

Off hand in my bag I have:

• A blush
• 4 Mascaras
• Eye highlighter
• 5 lip glosses
• 2 lipsticks
• 3 eyeliners
• A lip pencil
• MAC palette

That's NOT all of it..lol. But I'm going to stop now so you don't think I'm crazy...

What's in your make-up bag? Is it full?

Disclaimer: I was sent this product to review by Dickies Canada

OMG!! Guess what?!?!

Spiced Beauty has a new look :D 

What do you think?

Affordable Must have E.L.F Daily Brush Cleaner

If you don't know already I'm a huge E.L.F fan.
You get affordable make-up that doesn't break the bank!

I was lucky to have the opportunity to have a few items sent to me by E.L.F :D

The first thing I'll be reviewing is the E.L.F daily brush cleaner:
"An anti-bacterial daily brush cleanser for quick cleaning in-between makeup applications. Disinfects brushes to provide a fresh and clean application every time. Helps to keep your brushes lasting longer for extended use." 

Brush cleaning is really hard to do when you have a full-time job.

Once you get home from work all you want to do is rest...

I was an Annabelle Makeup Artist for the Much Music Video Award Pre-Party

I was sooooo excited to be chosen by Annabelle to be one of their make-up artist for this event.

This was my first time in an event setting & I loved it! The energy & gratitude from the guest made me happy.

Honestly their happiness made me realise why I do make-up. It's crazy how blush or lipstick can really brighten up someones day.

I live for moments like that <3

That picture is from the first look of the day. I gave her a neutral smokey look with a plum lip (not shown).
I love how I coated each lash so carefully LOL... you can totally tell by my facial expression!

OMG! I forgot to tell you all how I did some Male make-up application for the first time. Super easy!
Annabelle's Mineral powder was lightweight and perfect for even coverage : D

Are you going to IMATS Toronto!

4 more months to go : D

I can't believe IMATS is here again! Last year was so fun. I met a lot of beauty bloggers & got some great deals. I was also introduced to some new companies which are now worked into my everyday routine.


This year IMATS is held November 6&7 at Toronto Congress Centre. I looked at the venue and it's HUGE.

Click here to see my IMATS 2009 experience. 

Currently tickets are available but I'm not sure what day to go :| Probably Saturday because it's fresh. Are you going?

OOTD: Animal Print :)

I have an confession.. I love animal print... Mostly leopard print. The funniest thing is that I can never buy it! It`s always never in my size or sold out...

I told myself when the perfect opportunity comes along .. GET IT! and I did for $5.00 from H&M in their sale section : D

It goes with the whole neutral obsession I have going on right now. I paired it with a pair dark blue skinny jean, neutral waist belt & layer chain.

I love this look!
Easy, effortless but chic!

Do you like Animal print?

I'm off to Cuba!

Yup you heard me right vaca number #3 for the year. I'm grateful & uber blessed that I get the opportunity to do them. Also I'm very happy that my bf is coming along. This is our first time taking the plane together & being on vaca for 8 days straight...MADNESS.

Great Dollar Store Finds for your MUA Kit!

Hi Girlies,

I often get questions about what`s in my kit. Currently my kit needs to be refined & rebuild! In this past year I`ve come across some amazing new brands which have some must have items.

Due to the size of some of these items, they can`t be put into a traincase comfortably. During one of my many random dollarama trips, I found these great heavy duty bottles!

Aren`t they so fashionable :) I made sure I didn`t get the same colors, so I didn`t have to label them.

So far I have (depotted):
Hand sanitizer
Fix+
Brush Cleaner (90% alcohol)
Moisturizer

I love these bottle because I know they can take a beating LOL. I`m not going to abuse them but it`s good to know that all your product is safe inside your traincase.
