My 2016 Beauty Favourites

Happy 2017!! Wow long time no post! The past couple of months have been an absolute blur with work and travelling and just enjoying the Holiday Season. I hope you have all had a wonderful Holiday and Happy New Year. For my first post of 2017 I thought it would be nice to reflect on some of the beauty products I constantly reached for in 2016. Some of these items were released in 2016 and some were released in previous years.

Here we go!

• Loreal Infallible Pro Matte Foundation - lightweight demi matte finish and is long lasting
• Essence Pure Nude Highlighter - gives a very natural glow
• ABH Master Palette by Mario - love the shades and pigmentation of this palette
• Benefit They're real mascara - I tried this out for the first time in 2016 and love it!
• ABH That Glow Kit - Gorgeous highlighter kit!
• Make Up Forever Ultra HD Foundation stick - great coverage and easily blendable
• Benefit Hoola Bronzer - one of my HGs
• MAC Peachstock Lipstick - Amrezy made me get this one
• MAC Oyster Girl Lipglass - Amrezy made me get this one too
• Sephora Passionate Blush
• Clinique Ginger Pop Blush

• Colourpop Dopey Liquid Lipstick
• Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer

And those are all of my faves for 2016. I would love to hear what your favourites are!

My Colourpop Cosmetics Ultra Matte Lip Collection

From Left to Right - Beeper, 1st Base, Mars, So Low,

Creeper, Chilly Chilli, Donut, Sundae

These liquid lips definitely dry MATTE. They last a good couple of hours on my lips and I recommend that you exfoliate and moisturize prior to application. My favourites from my collection have to beeper & creeper. They rhyme! haha... These colors are pretty much at the opposite side of the spectrum. Beeper is a mid tone taupe and Creeper is a bright red. I loves me some red lips!

Overall, I really like these ultra matte liquid lipsticks. Swatches are down below!

What are your fave colours from the Ultra Matte collection? I really want to try the ultra satin lippies soon too!

August Favourites 2015

I can't believe August is over and Summer 2015 is coming to an end. On the other hand I can't wait for Fall... vampy lips, boots and comfy sweaters. The month of August I was obsessed with lip products (ok I am always obsessed with lip products) and I really loved shopping my collection. Some of the products that I fell in love again with were the Revlon balms! I love me some jumbo pencil lip products because they are easy to apply and come in so many pretty colours and finishes. Now... enough with my babble and on to my faves!

• Colourpop Super Shock Blush in Prenup
• Colourpop Super Shock Highlighter in Smokin' Whistles
• ABH Artist Palette
• MAC Plumful L/S
• Physicians Formula Blush (isn't the packaging sooo cute!!)
• Covergirl Outlast Stay Fabulous 3 in 1 Foundation (fell in love again with this one!)
• Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain in Sweetheart
• Revlon Colorburst Lacquer Balm in Coquette
• Revlon Colorburst Matte Balm in Audacious
• Rimmel Apocalips in Stellar

I've really been loving pops of color whether it be on the eyes or on the lips. What have you guys been loving in the past month? Would love to know!

XOXO
