I think I'm slightly going overboard with the shopping..lol. I found a blog sale which had amazing deals so I had indulge :)

Starting off with my first Sleek items!

The pigmentation is gorgeous! None of these were chalky on my skin.

Limited Edition i-divine Sparkle Palette is no longer in stores. So I'm very excited to get my hands on one.

A few swatches to show how the colors show up on my skin. The colors are amazing!

Mac lipstick in Rebel: Deep, fuchsia berry with a glossy finish. At my last trip to MAC I found this lipstick twice without searching for it.. gorgeous. So happy to have it now!

  Last but not least BarryM nail paint & CND Super Shiney

What is the most that you would pay for a lip gloss?

I had a debate with a co-worker a while back about how much is too much to pay for lip gloss.

My motto is "If it looks good and it's flattering.. buy it!"

But there is a limit.. Mine is $20.00...with tax..LOL

Some may say that's too much or too little.. but I want to hear what you have to say.

Something New: Pari Beauty Review

I first saw Pari Beauty at Toronto IMATS 2010. If my mind serves me right I was introduced to a very nice lady named Antoinette :) She gave who gave myself and Yana a brief rundown on the Pari brand.

Makeup galore at the Pari booth

Unfortunately, We did not purchase anything from the booth due to our pockets being empty..lol. But I vowed I would try something one of these days. Recently I got the opportunity to try out three products.

I was dying to try out the fast Drying Brush Cleanser since I seen a demonstration at IMATS. I would recommend this brush cleanser for MUA who use a brushes on multiple clients.

I travel a lot so I poured it into a smaller bottle. Much more convenient.

• Affordable ($10.00 CDN)
• Big bottle for multiple use
• Quick Drying

Brow Tamer:
Perfect for keeping your brow hairs together. I have really thick long brow hairs, so they can be a problem to tame at times. This is my first brow "gel" and I'm liking it so far. Price wise it was $12.00 but the bottle is durable(like metal) not a cheap plastic from what I am use to seeing.

Powder Blush:

This highly-pigmented pressed powder comes in matte and iridescent tones.  Its unique formula delivers long-lasting wear.

There was no legend stating which color was matte, shimmer, iridescent or whatever... I lucked out and got BO 08 which is a nice shimmery peach color.

If your into swatching and testing new makeup brands like I am..I would advise you to visit their stores in Canada:
Pari Beauty Locations
Vaughan Mills Mall (Woodbridge)
Bramalea City Centre (Brampton)
Upper Canada Mall (Newmarket)

I have been to the Bramalea City Centre (Brampton) and had the chance to swatch and get the look of the kiosk up close.

Ladies have you heard of Pari Beauty?

My first ASOS order! FREE shipping :)

This is my first time ordering of ASOS and I'm ecstatic! Not only because I found cute items..because shipping was FREE to Canada! LOL That's a rare occurrence. I'm currently trying to slowly build my summer wardrobe and these are the two items that I am starting out with:

                                                                       Love them!
