Green nail polishes can be hard to wear, especially for St. Patrick’s Day when it is a little too early for the brighter summer greens. My top pick (and the one I am wearing this year) is Zoya Pixie Dust in Chita, a forest green with a hint of gold and signature pixie dust sparkle. […]

Zoya Naturel Satin Swatches: Rowan, Sage & Tove
As most of you will know, Zoya is one of my favourite brands of nail polish, they rarely disappoint. The Zoya Naturel Satins collection is a transitional collection that is meant to ease you from Winter shades to brighter Spring shades and has some great nude colours.

Batiste Dry Shampoo Review
I really don’t know how I lived before I discovered dry shampoos and Batiste has long been one of my favourites. I have really thick hair that tends towards frizzy and keep it fairly long, so washing my hair takes forever. Drying is a minimum of twenty minutes to make sure it is completely dry […]

The Essence of Affordability: Four Nail Polishes For $10?
I was planning a beauty stock up shop this past weekend when I saw that Shoppers Drug Mart was offering 20x Optimum points, but decided to stock up on some Essence when they sent me a weekly coupon for an extra 20x points on Essence nail polishes. Essence nail polishes are already super affordable at […]

OPI Fifty Shades of Grey Swatches
I was excited to get my hands on this OPI collection. Grey polishes are some of my favourite and having a collection dedicated to them is just pure heaven especially with the mix of silver, red and sparkle thrown in. With the movie coming out soon, they are pushing Fifty Shades of Grey. The mall had […]
