My Holiday Scent is Candied Ginger from The Body Shop!

I've always had a soft spot for ginger. 

As an island girl I grew up with it in the house for every ailment. 

Stomach ache... ginger!
Nasuea... ginger!
Bloating... ginger!
I'm sure you get the point...

20+ years later and I'm surprisingly not sick of it!




I love the fact that Candied Ginger is not a raw ginger scent. It has a hint of sweetness.
Best described as a "fresh and zingy scent of ginger".

If you have the chance this Holiday swing by The Body Shop and check out Candied Ginger!

Perfect Holiday Red Lip from Mary Kay

The holidays is the best time to rock a mean red lip! 
I've been trying to decide what would be my go to color.. in other words I have wayyyy to much to choose from. A little birdy from Mary Kay dropped a lovely package off with their new products and immediately found my holiday lip.

Here is what I used:


  • I first feathered my lips with Mary Kay Cappuccino lip liner.
  • Secondly, I applied Mary Kay Nourishine Plus in Rock n Red.
  • Lastly, I applied Mary Kay Creme Really Red.



The combination is amazing! 
The colors are rich, vibrant and overall fun.
At first I wasn't sure if the combo would work but it was fun experimenting and
seeing this amazing outcome!

SWATCHES:

I have no idea why I wrote Chocolate. Its really Cappuccino.

I think is color would look with any skin tone.
I'm ready for the Holidays now!
Thanks Mary Kay <3

Make Up For Ever Wild & Chic Aqua Eyes Collection- Limited Edition

If someone asked me what I wanted for Christmas I would put this baby at the top of my list!

I honestly have anywhere from two to five minutes in the morning (If I'm lucky) to do my makeup. Liner is a huge part of my routine. I need it to last long, not smudge or even fade. Nothing is more disturbing than looking at yourself four hours into your shift and noticing raccoon eyes. Definitely not cute. 

I'm proud to report back that MUFE Aqua Eyes Collection is honestly all I needed.

Waterproof, smudge-proof, and fade-proof, Aqua Eyes is an award-winning, creamy, long-lasting eyeliner that truly stays put.


This set contains:
- Full Size Aqua Eyes in Mat Black 0L (black)
- 5 x Travel-size Aqua Eyes in Dark Grey 21L (dark metallic grey), Iridescent Navy Blue 3L (navy blue sheen), Blue With Green Highlights 12L (metallic teal blue), Pearly Brown 2L (golden brown sheen), Purple 11L (metallic purple)


Aqua Eyes Liner Breakdown:

Consistency/ Color Pay off:
  • Creamy- They glide on smoothly.
  • Rich Vibrant colors- You don't need to go over your line twice.
 Endurance:
  • Long Lasting - Over eight hours: They last my whole shift!
  • Smudge-proof - It didn't smudge on my lid.
These liners truly live up to the hype. I've tried a lot of eyeliners and currently these are working out the best for me. I gravitate towards the black because I work in an office but it's good to know that I have colors to switch it up with on Friday and the weekends.

At the price of $40.00 CDN which equals $6.67 is a great deal for variation six great liners.

 SWATCHES:
Ladies this is a Limited Edition item! 
So rush to your local Sephora to pick one up ASAP.

Have you tried these liners before?

I'm loving Sexual Sugar Perfume by Michel Germain

A few weeks ago I was offered the opportunity to try Sexual Sugar by Michel Germain. I was EXTREMELY hesitant at first...BUT explaining to others that your wearing Sexual Sugar perfume is a definite conversation starter.

First some background on Michel Germain:
  • Canadian Company from Michel Germain a French-Canadian designer.
  • Fragrances for men and women.
There is no better way to explain Sexual Sugar other than it smells just like berry flavored cotton candy.

The scent is rich and long lasting. I usually spray it 1- 2 time(s) at 7am and I can still smell it at 8pm.

I did some research on why this perfume is a top seller and it all comes down to the three "notes".
  • Top notes: The scents that are perceived immediately upon application of a perfume. 
  • Middle notes: The scent of a perfume that emerges just prior to when the top notes dissipate.
  • Heart notes: The scent of a perfume that appears close to the departure of the middle notes.
Check out the notes in Sexual Sugar:
  • Top Notes: Wildberries, Sugar coated orange zest
  • Middle Notes: Passion flower, Orange water flower, Jasmine
  • Heart Notes: Fresh roasted almonds, Vanilla creme brulee, Sandalwood
No wonder it smells amazing! Sexual Perfume, is a top seller at The Bay, Bloomingdales & Macy's.
