Mini Beauty Haul

 Hello loves! So I decided to add some basic items to my makeup collection.
 I've heard so much about Urban Decay and for my first shadow palette I got Naked 2. This palette has many natural shades with shimmery and matte finishes and I thought it was perfect for makeup newbies like myself . I could definitely do a simple everyday look to a more glamorous night look with this palette. 
         
    Here are all the shades and their cute names.
 The Palette came with a two sided synthetic fiber brush , one side for blending and the other for applying.

 
The other product I got was a BB cream by Garnier Fructis in the shade deep. I find this perfect for everyday coverage especially if you attend High School or University like me and you want a very natural and modest look. Also it was refreshing to finally find a BB cream that matches my skin tone perfectly and who's "deep" wasn't too light. 
                
The only problem I find with this product is that it's not as moisturizing as I hoped it would be and primarily functions as a sunblock (SPF 20) so I just pair it with my moisturizer and I'm good to go. 
    
Every girl needs an eyelid primer! Before I got this one by Elf I used my MAC concealer .
 
 Honestly I'm still getting the hang of this but from what I can tell so far it's an ok primer. The consistency is clumpy and I definitely have to use the applicator to smooth it out on my lid. But it does help to show up the true colour of the eyeshadow and delays creasing .Finally , I was looking for a nude/ natural lip colour for darker skin tones and I found "Show Me" lipglass by MAC.
 I absolutely adore this product an will definitely repurchase when it's finished .
 That's it for the review on my recent beauty purchases.

Also Happy Fashion Week,
Adrienne Justine

Out with a bang! (Ricks Cafe and Beaches Negril)

I left from the hotel and headed towards West End to get the best view of the sunset from Ricks Café. Ricks Cafe is amongst the top 10 Cafes in the world and is a spot to dine, watch live performances, party, watch a fiery sunset, lounge in the pool and cliff dive.
        
 
                   
After the sunset .
After watching the sunset I decided to go cliff diving . There were 3 levels and after hearing how terrifying the jump was from even the lowest level I made up my mind to just start with the highest level. Many people attempted and once they went to the edge and looked down they freaked out . Well it was my turn and I told myself I wouldn't look down. I went to the edge and my family began counting down and I jumped in before they were done. 
         
The fall lasted an eternity or so it seemed. I felt completely out of control of my body. A million years later I finally crashed in a streamline into the water and I was just glad to be in the water. I did it ! It was scary and exciting at the same time but it was totally worth it .

Nails of the day


I like to think that my nails are like mood rings on each finger that express to the world how I'm feeling. Ha ! Ok that's a little dramatic but my mood does inspire my nails of the day (NOTD) and right now I'm feeling like a bold red Geranium. Geranium by Essie is what I'm wearing right now and for now it's my fave colour.

 The colors I've been wearing a lot this summer are :


I find the entire line to include high quality nail polishes which dry quickly and are easy to apply because of its fluidity .
