Holiday Makeup Wishlist ♡

Happy holidays dolls! Here are some items I'm dying to get my hands on this holiday season. I've heard amazing reviews on most of these products and I have so many holiday looks in mind to create with them. Its been a WHILE since I've gotten a new shadow palette and the Lorac Pro 2 seems like something different than the nude based palettes I normally get. Honestly I would be buying this palette specifically for the pigments Plum, Jade, Navy, Charcoal and Cocco because most of the other shades are similar to the ones I have in my
Naked 2 palette. I also love that the palette comes with a primer. I also need a new mascara so I'll just try Lorac's as well. Lorac eyeshadow , LORAC black mascara

I've been looking for a great shadow for my new years eve look and I think that stila might have the perfect one!Stila cream eye shadow ($53 - selfridges.com)

Bronzer and blush can really warm up your face even in the winter time. I'm really excited to try the Pink Shimmer Blush by NARS and Sun Beam by Benefit to give me that summer time glow LOL. Benefit bronzing powder , NARS Cosmetics pink shimmer blush ($35 - liberty.co.uk)

I've always used mac concealers but I want to try this pro longwear concealer I've heard so much rave about. It looks like it has a more liquid consistency and is probably easier to apply.Mac cosmetic

Ok I have to admit, I've never worn lashes before and I'm still a little hesitant, but I think if there's ever a time to try new things it's during the holiday season when everything is all about glitz & glam. http://www.ebay.com/itm/361115941463

I have been looking for the perfect nude lipstick for the longest time. I think its harder to find a nude for darker skin tones. Anyways I want a nude that has pink and brown tones, and I think this color by Gucci might be it *crosses fingers. Gucci moisturizing lipstick

That's it for my holiday makeup wishlist. When I get these products I'll be sure to do a review on them and let you know if they met my high expectations. I wish you lots  of love and joy this holiday.

Two Piece : Too Chic

So the semester is wrapping up, and for me that means party season! This almost always marks a transition from rocking minimalist outfits, to channeling my inner diva. My wardrobe quickly gets taken over by sparkle, patterns, texture; too much is never enough. Just kidding! Anyways I've been loving the two piece trend and here are a few reasons why:

1. Not your typical bodycon 
2.  Perfect fit - You can focus on each piece at a time when fitting. Also you can adjust the bottom to where it fits you best e.g. waist or hips.
3. Mix & Match - You can separate pieces and use them in different outfits , for many different looks.
4. Show 'em curves - Two pieces typically extenuate your body figure hugging your hips and showing your waist. I tend to struggle with dress fitting because my hips are wide and my waist is really small. Most times my dresses are really tight on my hip area and loose around my stomach. With 2 pieces I avoid that prob.

New Collection Review!

 I'm so excited to do a review on an awesome organic beauty  line that I had the privilege of trying out. The collection is called Feel Good Formulas by Arran Arromatics located in Scotland.  It includes a wide range of beauty products with traditional/ organic ingredients. Here are a few products from the collection that I've been using .

These body washes/ moussant smell amazing and leave my skin really moisturized.

I use this as a facial soap even though it says for body . It suds a  little. You could definately use it for both. It isn't heavy and I love that it has Shea!

 

The collection is great. The packaging is unique and colourful, and the ingredients are organic, invigorating and just great for your skin and hair. Here's a link to their website on which you can order any of these products and much more without traveling all the way to Scotland even though that would be pretty cool :)  Arran Arromatics . A special thanks to Raahki Sunak who gave these great products to moi .
 xoxo
