Hey all! I'm not going to apologize or explain my absence here because a) no one reads descriptions, and b) I explain in the video!
This GRWM is just me getting ready for a daytime wedding, using neutral, pretty, shimmery colours on the eyes, paired with bright pink lips. Inoffensive, but pretty, easy, and would look great on lots of people. Enjoy!

Hey guys, here's a GRWM, or I guess GRW..US... that I filmed with Brit a while ago when we were having a gothy themed day, dressing up, doing darker makeup, and visiting some of the cool gothy and witchy stores downtown. While we did not, unfortunately, make it to all the shops I wanted to see, it was good, and I think we looked pretty cool!
I don't have a product list for this video, because there is so much, but let me know if there is anything in particular either of us uses, and I'll try to figure out what it was for you! I also really love the eye look I did, so if you want to see a dedicated tutorial for this look, let me know, and I'll do my best to recreate it for you. =)

Hey guys! Today's video is simple, pretty, anytime makeup look that would pair with so many lip colours! I used the Kat Von D Shade & Light Eye palette for the look; don't forget to check out my review of the palette, if you missed it!

Today's video is all about my thoughts on the Kat Von D Shade & Light Eye palette. No, it isn't new or fancy, but I think it's worth talking about nonetheless! I hope you enjoy this video, and don't forget to let me know if you've tried this one out in the comments!

Hey guys! Just a quick and easy GRWM for the makeup I wore for my birthday party on the 28th. I was really happy with it, so I hope you like it too. This is the first video I've done with my new KVD Shade & Light Eye palette, but I will do more looks and a review soon!
Oh, and if the music isn't your jam, feel free to play your own music while you watch =)

Today I have a soft, smudge-y, gothy look for you featuring matte eyes and almost entirely drugstore products!

So today's video is the first of 2 Valentine's Day looks that I filmed this year. This one is smokey and sexy, using the Makeup Revolution Iconic 3 palette (a dupe for the Urban Decay Naked 3), and paired with a deep berry lip.
The second will be up on Monday and will be a much lighter, fun and girly look using the same palette and a bright pink lip, so make sure to check back for that!

Today's video is a pretty neutral look, but with a pop of colour under the eyes in the form of this cool lower-liner wing! Hope you like the look, you could easily use this method with whatever colours you want to make it yours!

Hey guys! Today's video is for those of you looking for a pretty NYE or party look that doesn't revolve around glitter and is a little more subdued and wearable. I really love this one, and I'm sure I'll be recreating it, because it's that good, and these eyes would easily go with a variety of lip shades. You obviously do not need to pair it with the deep purple lips I used in this video! I hope you love the look as well and have a fun, safe New Year's!
If you are looking for a glitterbomb makeup look that's easy to recreate, check out my Glittery Drugstore-Only NYE Look I posted last week!

Hi Guys! Just a wearable rusty matte eye look with bright pink lips. I wasn't sure the lips were going to go at first, but I really like how it ended up looking. As always if you think my eye and lip pairings are weird or too bold, do your own thing! =)
Maybe I shouldn't apologize, but I'm sorry anyways for the irregular uploads recently. I'm trying to get back in top of things, but things seem to keep coming up or getting in the way. Hopefully the rest of the year and into 2017 will be more normalised! Thanks so much to anyone who's subscribed and watches my videos!

In which I review the huge mouthful of a palette known as the Makeup Revolution Redemption Eyeshadow Palette Iconic 3... Good luck remembering that one!!
Let's just call it the Iconic 3... Anyways, this is basically a great, inexpensive dupe of the Naked 3 palette from Urban Decay... only it's better. Watch to see why! (Comparison swatches below the embedded video!)

Hello again! Today's as you've probably guessed, I'm going to go over a bunch of new products from Essence that are coming out for this fall/winter season! I was sent these products to test out, but this post is not sponsored, and my opinions are completely honest and 100% my own! I didn't receive everything coming out in this launch, but I did receive A LOT of it, so hopefully this post can give you an idea of what's coming from Essence, and some good swatches of the various products!
I'll also be using at least some of these items in upcoming tutorials and GRWMs, so look forward to those to see how these products work on the the face as part of a whole look! And as always, feel free to let me know anyting you really want to see used!
My thoughts and swatches of everything will be below the jump, since this is going to be a long and picture heavy post... but here's a quick look at everything I recieved:
A quick review of the new Revlon Not Just Nudes palette in Romantic Nudes. =) Swatches below embedded video.

The swatches (top left to bottom right):
I didn't crop the above image weirdly... there is a faint, shimmery swatch in front of that rusty coloured swatch... it's just very similar to my skintone!
Want to see this palette used in a video? Conveniently, I've already posted one! Check out my last video for a simple daytime look featuring this palette, and feel free to let me know if there are any shades you want to see me use in a future look!

In which I review the Unicorns Unite palette from Makeup Revolution. Makeup Revolution will soon be launching in London Drugs stores in Canada, so I was lucky enough to get this (and a couple more) Makeup Revolution palettes from the #LDBeauty event last month, so I wanted to review them for you and share my thoughts on whether these are worth trying when they do pop up in your local London Drugs. Or if you aren't in Canada, maybe you already have access to these palettes at Ulta, online, Superdrug, etc. =)
All the eyeshadow swatches are below the embedded video!

In the following swatches, I tried to pick up about the same amount of product and use approximately the same effort into each swipe... I used no primer and didn't try to build up the colour's opacity, because I wanted to show what a normal swatch of each colour looks like. Hope these help! =)
The palette:
Row 1:
Row 2:
Row 3 (the mattes):
As you can see, the pigmentation isn't bad, but isn't great. Some colours are certainly better and easier to work with than others, and two of the matte shades are very translucent and invisible on my skin! Some of the more metallic shades, and the darker mattes can be a bit powdery and fall out-y, but this is still a pretty good palette for those on a budget... Those colours are just so pretty!
Thanks for watching & reading!
Hey guys! In today's video I'm sharing with you the makeup I did for David's birthday party just over a week ago, which is also coincidentally Canada Day, so I've added red lips for some subtle Canadian pride =P I really love how this look turned out, so I hope you guys like it too! I used a ton of drugstore products in this one, as well, so it's really affordable compared to some of my more high-end focussed looks!
Let me know if you like the voiceover format more than just watching me do my makeup at high speed, or having me talking while I do my makeup. It's the most work to put together, since it's almost like I'm recording and editing twice for one video, but if you like it most, I'm totally willing to do more like this!

Hey guys! Today's video is a quick review of the new(ish) ELF Mad for Mattes eyeshadow palette that I received from the #LDBeauty event last month! As always, my opinions here are completely honest and unbiased. I really do love this palette!
This palette is not yet available at London Drugs, at least online, but it is online on ELF's website for $10 USD.

Hi guys! In today's video I am playing with a ton of new products I was given at the #LDBeauty event a couple of weeks ago, and I create a smokey, colourful makeup look!
All the products used will be down below, as well as a link to my LDBeauty event haul, so let me know if there is anything I used here or mentioned in my haul that you want to see in a look or a review, and I will work on getting that out for you!

Hey guys! Today's video is somewhere between a tutorial and a GRWM, so I've gone with the GRWM tag... anyways, I wanted to do a fun, colourful, but wearable makeup look, and this is what came out! I really love it. I used the Too Faced Sugar Pop palette that came out last year (I think), and while that is no longer available (sorry!!), you can still easily replicate these colours, all you need is a soft bright orange, a bronze, and a highlight shade, and the two recent Too Faced palettes, as well as palettes from inexpensive brands like BH Cosmetics, Coastal Scents, and Morphe could easily get you these shades! Enjoy!
