Surprise!

Long time no see.. beauty peeps! I haven't died yet! Life's been pretty busy so I haven't had much time to actually sit down to try/review any products. I moved away from my hometown to work so I don't have much makeup/skincare products with me anymore. I have been keeping up to date with reading other beauty blogger's reviews and I have seen a few things that have caught my eye. But mail totally sucks at my new place so I don't know.. =(

Although this is not a review post, I'd like to show you 2 Lunasol palettes I recently purchased. I have 4 in total now but the other 2 are at home. Those 2 are Coral Coral and Black Tea.

The ones I got recently are more of neutral ones because I don't see myself using crazy colours around work. Got one from the most recent and one from an older collection.

05 Close of Night

I wasn't going to get this one originally but I decided to have at least a warm tone neutral pallete wouldn't be too bad. For some reason, I feel warmer tones make me really orange/rusty looking.


These shadows are incredibly shimmery but sophisticated shimmery. I love using the white(3rd) all over with the cafe-latte-brown(2nd) for the crease. Then use the peach-copper-ish(1st) to dab right in the middle of the lid. AND I LOVE LOVE the dark brown! It's great for smudging, smokey looks and lining! I'm so lazy that I just use it for liner sometimes. Awesome palette to have! =)

04 Neutral

This was the palette I wanted real bad. I "researched" a lot on this one because I was really looking for a cool toned one. I finally got it and then realized that INTEGRATE has a palette with the exact same colours. =(


My swatch doesn't exactly show the "coolness" of the palette but it's there. I don't quite like this one as much as I had before. Just the fact that it doesn't really show up on my lids that much.

Overall, I really like 05 Close of Night because the colours just go on really nice. I have looked at a couple of more Lunasol palettes that I would like to try. They are 01 Start of Night(recent collection) and 05 Chocolate Cosmos(Scent Form Collection).

Until next time!
Stay beautiful!

Semi-back

Dear Readers,

Hello and hello again! I have indeed been back and around for quite a bit but my new job is quite important to me and I can not maintain this blog as much as I could before. I'm not leaving this though! I still enjoy my time writing about makeup and beauty products. I'm just afraid that it won't be too constant. My life has taken HUGE step into the future. I went to a job training in the US and it was very successful. I am now back in Canada working full-time at my job and loving every single minute of it. I have also taken an even HUGER step with my boyfriend as well. Good things are happening to me now! I must sound silly now but I have to say I feel very blessed for everything I have and the things I am able to do. I hope we all are.

See you guys around!

Semi-Hiatus

Dear Readers,

I hate to say this again but I will have to be on a short hiatus. I have an important job training to go to for a few weeks so I will be unable to post new reviews and respond to the questions/comments. I'm afraid to say Mascara Mondays may be on a pause as well.

Please enjoy the past entries for the time being!

Thanks!

New!

That's right! A whole new section to my already growing blog! A OUI BEAUTY SPECIAL: Mascara Mondays! I thought it would be a fun project to do with my blog. It's nothing too different from my normal mascara entries but just every Monday, it'll always be about mascara! How fun is that?

It debuts next week(you guessed it...MONDAY!)!

Update!

Hello again, readers!

How was your summer? Are you ready for fall? Hopefully it isn't too much of a hard transition!

My summer was great! Having my computer in the shop helped me get out a bit more and experiment with some western cosmetics. I'm thinking of reviewing them. Maybe on special days. I haven't decided yet.

I'm pleased to tell everyone that I am back and hopefully some of the reviews(that have been sitting in my email account) will be up in soon-time.

I have also decided to close the other two locations of my blog on Livejournal and Pixnet. It's just confusing sometimes!

That is about it!
Bye for now!

MAJOR HIATUS

Hello readers!
My blog will be on a short break due to a malfunctioning computer.

There will be many reviews to come and will be posted when I come back!

Bye for now!
Have a great summer!
