Okay Okay!!I admit it I said I would NEVER buy a Cover Girl Nature Luxe product again after the total fail of their Mascara and me not getting along. BUT I swear I have a good excuse!

I was watching Saaammage's review on this foundation and it made me so curious! She has really good taste and I find I do tend to like a lot of things she likes so I thought maybe just MAYBE this might be better then I had originally thought.AND it was on sale for $9.99 plus I had a $2 off coupon so eh why not right?

I have never ever really found a foundation that I really liked, I actually don't wear it really ever.....

Purchased at London Drugs $9.99 - $2 coupon

I think $7.99  is very reasonable since this will last me forever!

The packaging is alright, the same as all the other Nature Luxe products. I like the squeeze tube, a pump would be ideal of course but the price would go up.

I also like the slim packing, easier to store.

Of course glass container types always look nicer but again the price goes up and this can just fit easily in my makeup drawer.

I purchased this in 310-Flax. Second lightest shade =( . They do have a fair amount of shades to offer compared to some of the other foundations I have seen.

You can really smell the cucumber scent and I actually really like it. Not over powering and once applied you don't notice the smell.

Okay I think I take the picture too close because this just makes my hand look all wrinkly and old! lol. But this formula is seriously so light and it blends like a dream!

I find this a little bit more then a light foundation, more towards medium but you really don't notice you have it on. You don't need a ton, it blends so nicely! I don't notice a huge difference in lasting power compared to other drug store foundations I have tried, honestly I find that nothing stays on my face all day even with primer. I would say the lasting power is alright, nothing amazing, nothing terrible.

I would recommend this to anyone looking for a good drug store foundation, I think this does even out skin tones nicely and it can't be any worse then most of the crap on the shelves these days.

Don't forget to order your $2 coupon Here (for Canada.. There is a USA one too I believe but since I don't have an account I couldn't find it)

Have you had a chance to try this foundation?

Please forgive the picture, it is 9pm and it is dark dark outside!! So I had to use my flash and the color is a bit off =/

When it comes to everyday shadows(When I use them) I am very neutral and like mostly browns so a lot of my shadows are similar colors but I feel like I can never have enough brown eye shadows!

Here are my top ones I love to use:

*Urban Decay Naked Palette - ( Of course!)

*Cover Girl Eye Enhancer in Tapestry Toupe- (I have had this forever!)

*Cover Girl Eye Enhancer in Swill Chocolate- (Also an oldy)

*Wet n Wild Color Icon in Nutty (Best $2 shadow ever!)

*Hard Candy Baked Eye Shadow Duo in Baked (Nicely pigmented for $5 Shadow!)

What is your most used color & Brand for everyday eye shadow look?

Cover Girl's Nature Luxe Mascara Made with a touch of Bee's Wax, with this light weight formula this is able to give your lashes easier lift then most mascara's.
Sounds interesting doesn't it?



"Discover luxurious volume that feels light as air. We took out a select few heavy synthetics and put in a light touch of beeswax - for luxurious lashes that are 20% lighter*. 2X more volume!"


From the packaging, it just looks like another Nature Luxe product.. It's nice but nothing too special.


 This is quite new to Canada, with that comes the price of $10.99. I paid $11 for mascara! Wow what was I thinking? I never ever pay that much but I was very interested to see what this formula might be like.


The brush is a cool green color, and looks very spiky!!

 I think the type of brush helps the mascara from getting all clumpy on the brush


Okay BEWARE!!



I don't know why but I just find this picture creepy looking lol. This is my attempt to catch the outcome of the mascara..This is 2 coats PLUS It is cheating a little bit, but I put a waterproof top coat of L'oreal's voluminous as I always do no matter what. As well my lashes are curled in this picture. It might look like it's ok mascara but my lashes are decent in length just not volume, which you can see in the picture.

Overall I wouldn't purchase this mascara again.Here are a couple reasons why:

*The brush is so sharp, if you think the L'oreal Million Lashes is a pointy brush, then I wouldn't advise you to use this. I don't find that one to poke me but this one sure did. Bristles are very sharp on the end
*Did not give my lashes ANY volume what so ever.
*Price was too expensive for what the outcome was.

Now for the good parts


*Not clumpy
umm that's all I got =/

This isn't terrible, I have tried way worse before but I think my expectations were a little bit high since it sounded like a different kind of mascara that might do wonders for my lashes.I haven't actually found a Cover Girl mascara that I like, maybe they just don't work with my type of lashes?
I say wait for a sale if you are really interested in trying this.

Would I repurchase? Nope
Would I recommend? No

Have you had a chance to try this yet? Or hear any reviews on it?

What are Saturdays best for? Hanging out?Sleeping?Shopping?

All of the above but I decided I would go shopping this Saturday and picked up a few things and here's what I got!

I was in need of some new jeans that weren't three inches too long dragging everywhere and i found some! We recently just got a Boathouse in my city and I really am loving that store. It's kinda like a wanna be "skate shop" I used to always hate stores like this and always liked the real skate shops buttttt my city sucks for them so Boathouse is pretty good. 

*Harlow Fiona Flare Fit-$49.99-This was a little more $$ then I usually spend on jeans but they are super comfy!

*Harlow Riley Flare Fit-$39.99

*Volcom Black & Pink Hoody- this is INSANE btw lol I haven't bought a hoody for this price in YEARS!!! $69.99 yikes..but I really liked it!

*Atticus Shirt-$9.99,regularly $24.99 - From D-tox

*BW Shoes-$15.99 regularly $44.99 from Shoe Warehouse

I am a pretty casual dresser, and had been stuck in officey clothes for the passed 2 years so it was nice to buy some regular clothes for a change.

Next we went to Shoppers to kill some time before our last stop....

I am such a sucker for sales and find it so much more justifiable to purchase some things when they are like 50% off

*Crest 3D White Tooth Paste-$3.99, regularly $5.99

*Scope White-$2.99 Regularly $5.99

*Noxzema Cleanser in a travel size-$2.99

*Cover Girl Nature Luxe Mascara Mousse in Very Black-$9.99-Pricey!! but I wanted to try it out since it is new..not impressed so far =/

*Rimmel The Max Volume Flash in Extreme Black-$4.99-regularly $7.99

Okay now for the fun part!!!

We popped into Dark Day Tattoo & Piercing and decided hey lets get something pierced...

I had my ears pierced when I was little but one of them got ripped out and i had to get my ear lope stitched up and never got them repierced...

There it is! It actually kind of hurt, I think it was from it being pierced on the scar. 

It was weird to have them done now because when I was like 5 they used a dirty ass gun to pierce it and they put studs in-I guess maybe because I was 5?  

My friend got one on her ear, upper ear on the inside, I don't even know what it was called =/ but it looks really good!

That was my Saturday....what did you do?

This is probably really late for summer but honestly this is like the first REAL weekend of summer that I've had this year, how strange considering the summer is almost over =/

But here are some of my must haves for summer :

I am more of the lip gloss&Mascara kind of girl. I ALWAYS have both of those on 90% of the time. I do use a powder most of the time but once in a while I will use foundation. When it is actually summer and my skin isn't hating me I will just use Cover Girl's basic powder so there isn't too much exciting going on in the picture for some of you but this is what I stick with..

*Batiste Dry Shampoo in Black

*Nivea Essientail Care

* Johnson & Johnson Baby Lotion-It smells amazing!!!

*Chi Silk Infusion

*L'oreal Voluminous Water Proof Mascara

*Aussie 3 Minute Miracle deep conditioner

*Cover Girl Clean Pressed Powder

*Escada- Marine Grove

*Annabelle Bronzer

*Neutrogena Utlra Sheer Dry Touch Sunscreen. Uva/uvb protection

*Aloe Vera Gel just in case I get lobster like =/

What are your top 3 must haves for summer? ( I might be missing out on something!)

I have been eying the products at SuperStore from the line Joe for a while now and I haven't actually bought anything that comes to mind from this line, but always wanted too. I haven't been at SuperStore for a while but I had to run in there the other day and here is a couple things I picked up to try.

I forgot to mention that Joe is a Canadian line, it was created by Joseph Mimran who also has developed many successful fashion labels including Alfred Sung, Club Monaco and Caban, and he contributes to the Pink Tartan clothing collection.

*Bonnie Bell- Eyes shadow stick - 14K Gold-$5

*Joe Lip Stain - Sheer Pink-$6

*Joe Fine Tip Liquid Liner -Black (I have tried to get this for months and months and they actually had it in stock I was really surprised)-$6

*Joe Lip Gloss in Fresh Glass- $6

They aren't overly expensive for make up products and I have heard positive things from different reviews so we will see how they are!

*Montagne Jeunesse Sauna Masque-$2

**********************************************************************

Shoppers Drug Mart:

* L'oreal - Total Repair Replenishing Detangling Care -$5

*Jergens Ultra Care-$4 (on sale)

*Cover Girl Wet Slicks - on sale two for $6

*Gauva Splash

*Raspberry Splash

* Arm and Hammer Spin Brush $8- I also had a coupon for $1 off

That is my mini haul that I spend more than I had expected too but hopefully its worth it! I haven't tried any of these except the Jergens & Montagne Jeunesse Mask so i am eager to see how everything is!

Have you had a chance to try any of these?

APRIL IS OVERRRRR-well almost. I swear as you get older time freakin flys by and everything is on a time crunch to fit everything in! 

So with the end of April almost here, here is where I blew some of my $$$ =)

I cannot believe this is my first product, and I have had it in my blow before when I did my mascara review but I wasn't a major fan..well I finished that tube and on to the second one. This month I am really liking the MAYBELLINE FALSIES in blackest black of course. The only thing I am not a fan of is I find it so  wet, so it takes longer to dry of course.

I have used LIP SMACKERS my whole life, I swear I was born with lip gloss in my hands! I have tried every flavor out there! I actually didn't buy it for a little white since I like the Bath & Body Works lip glosses just as much. But sometimes I like to pick these up. This one is peach and if you like the candy fuzzy peaches you will love its, it smells amaaaaaaaaaaazing!!So Amazing I secretly want to eat it!! but then I remember hey this is lip gloss not food, you will eat fuzzy peaches instead ! =)

Drug Store Eye shadow! COVER GIRL isn't my favorite drug store product in anyway shape or form but I do like some of their shadow's. I am a fan of anything brown or any neutral's really. This is Cover Girl's Shimmering Sands trio shadow. This is a great cheaply priced shadow for everyday colors. I believe this was under $8.

Bath & Body Works!!As per usual =) DARK KISS is my new obsession and this is their body lotion with vitamin e, jojoba & shea butter to help keep your skin not only smelling good but looking good.

Need something yummy smelling for your house? I decided to try the mini candle from BATH & BODY WORKS in Seaside Escape. This is different then what I regularly pick and I love it, it is a seaside smell  ;), its very pretty! I might even have to buy the full size when they have a sale again.

Some Random things worth checking out or leaving behind in the store...

 I have been testing eye make up removers lately and i am having a hard time finding a good one for a decent price, so if anyone knows of any let me know! This is Clean & Clear's eye make up remover. It isn't amazing but for a drug store product around $7 is does the trick. It is gentle on my eyes and removes most waterproof mascara without the awful stinging or oily feeling.

Here is a quick video on it if you are curious:
