Review & Swatches – Morgan Taylor Cinderella Collection Mini Set

Morgan Taylor Cinderella Collection

Is it just me or has this week just completely flown by? It was such a busy week for me – and to top it off, it was a frustrating one too.

I haven’t had the time to take the photos again, but will make time this weekend. So, come hell or high water – the Too Faced Chocolate Bar Palette giveaway WILL be up on Monday. Continue reading →

Beauty Snoop #4 – Scholl, NIVEA, Nip + Fab, Philips & More!

I enjoy preparing for all my blog posts, but there are certain blog posts I really, REALLY enjoy writing (and taking photos for) – ‘Beauty Snoop’ is one of them. ‘Beauty Snoop’ posts are short review / first impression blog posts, I usually feature 5 or 6 different products (skin care, hair care, nail care, makeup, fragrance or even makeup application tools) and give you my initial 2 cents worth on each item.

Hair isn’t winning this battle today! Continue reading →

Whoops. I just couldn’t help myself! Something about their floral fragranced, orange textured products that imparts the most wonderful glow to dull or tired out skin. Yes, they aren’t the most budget friendly options, but they do deserve all the love and admiration they receive. Continue reading →

BUDGET BEAUTY: DRUGSTORE FAVOURITES

Recently my daily makeup picks have been including a number of drugstore gems that I would be lost without.

Today is an ode to all those cheaper items that get just as much love in my collection and are worth a dedicated post praising them. Continue reading →
