So, a $38 mascara with a bendable wand? Can Givenchy’s Noir Interdit mascara live up to the hype and actually get all of those lashes? Is it worth $38? Don’t get me wrong, I will splurge on something that works for my lashes but with a short shelf life, $38 is high for mascara. I […]
Below Deck Inspired Nail Art
Below Deck is my guilty pleasure. The regular one with Kate and Captain Lee and not the summer Med one (although I will watch that if I am bored too). Since I gave up the Real Housewives of New Jersey, I need a little trashy TV in my life and this is what I picked […]
Color Club Serene Green Mood Polish Swatches and Nail Art
Possibly my favourite from the collection, Color Club Serene Green is not very serene nor green. This thermal mood polish transitions from teal when warm to indigo-purple when cold. As you can see on the brush, a nice opaque formula. Still needs two coats for full opacity but it is beautiful. Unlike some of the […]
Color Club Feelin’ Myself Mood Polish Swatches & Nailart
I seem to be on a bit of a pink kick lately which is weird for me as I rarely wear pink. But Color Club Mood Polish in Feelin’ Myself changes to purple and you know I love a good purple. This shade has a great formula, none of the brush stroke issues I experienced […]
Color Club Extra Vert Mood Polish Swatches & Nail Art
I recently got my hands on the Color Club Mood Changing Polishes and since my BM-XL25 plate had just arrived with its sea and wave designs, Extra Vert with a beautiful blue to pale green transition was top of my list to try. Color Club Extra Vert Mood Changing Polish seems pretty opaque on the […]
Burlap & Twine (Hamilton Independent Business) Bath Bombs
I love supporting local businesses so am a big fan of Burlap & Twine. It is near downtown so I can easily grab some bath bombs or other beauty goodies without a special trip to the mall. They recently celebrated four years in Hamilton and bath bombs were half price, just $3 so I stopped […]
Wild Heather Campfire Smores Tea
I realize that lapsang souchong is not for everyone. The smokey smell, the strong flavour, definitely an acquired taste. But if you have ever wanted to try one, Wild Heather Tea Company’s Campfire Smores is a great starter. With a sprinkling of cocoa nibs, chocolate chips and sugar the sweeter taste makes it the perfect […]

The ABox by Avon: Divine Wine Fall Beauty Trend Box
Ever want to refresh your makeup bag for a new season but are not sure where to start? Avon will now sell curated boxes with the basics for a new themed look. They currently have a skincare box available but I tried out the Fall Trends Divine Wine collection. The box sells for $49 but […]
Craftadian Made In Hamilton Fall 2017 Show
If you have been reading for a while, you will know that I love Craftadian shows. For most things, we need to go into Toronto but Hamilton has a thriving indie maker scene and several craft shows a year. Craftadian’s Made in Hamilton is the next one and less than a week away. So what […]
