Monday Challenge | Pastel Fantasy

Heyy girls,

on this wonderful Monday, we are going to jump right into Spring. I don't know about you, but I am sick of Winter right now. I can't wait to say goodbye to the cold weather & the snow, and to say hello to the sun & the warm air. Anyway, I hope this short post will bring some Spring spirit into your day. Let's get started!

Do you like pastel colors?

I don't like pastel colors, I love them! 

Do you wear it often? Never?

It depends on the season, but during Spring & Summer time that's all I am wearing on my nails. As for clothes, I only wear pastels during Spring. I was supposed to show you my favorite pastel fashion pieces, but unfortunately I am moving out currently and I only have my winter clothes with me...

Monday Challenge | Shiny Lips

Heyy girls,

I hope you had an amazing weekend. For me the weekend isn't finish yet since I'm on Spring Break right now and I have no school until next Monday ;) I hope you enjoyed my Friday post that I actually posted on Saturday (shuut don't tell anyone). If you didn't read it and you're interested into knowing what are my thoughts about the Tarte Lights, Camera, Lashes! Mascara, well click here. But anyway, this week I am back with another Monday Challenge. And this week we'll talk about lipgloss! Let's get started...

Do you wear lipgloss? Never? Occasionally? Everyday?

I used to wear lipgloss every time I wore makeup, but recently, I've just been disliking wearing lipgloss. I've juste really  been into matte lip products and let's be honest, my lips are somewhat big and sometimes I don't like putting lipgloss over them because it makes them look even more big... But, hey, I'm not complaining, I'm lucky to have a full set of lips ;)

What are your favorite shades? On the opposite side, what are the shades that you dislike? Or that you don't dare wearing?

If I ever wear lipgloss, I usually go for pinky nudes or just pink lipglosses in general. Wearable pinks though. The shades that I kind of fear are browns and purples.

What are your favorite brands as far as lipgloss goes?

For an high-end brand I like Benefit lipglosses. I like L'Oreal lipglosses for a drugstore brand. I've also heard that Revlon and Maybelline have amazing formulas.

Monday Challenge | Blue Nailpolishes

heyy girls,

I'm back this week with another Monday Challenge. This week challenge is about blue nailpolishes. I don't own a lot of them, even though I love this color, but I've decided to do it anyway. Don't forget to leave a comment saying what are your favorite blue nailpolishes! Here are the questions...

Do you wear blue nailpolish on your nails?

I'm not wearing blue nailpolish right now, but I do wear this color often on my nails because it one of my favorite colors.

What are your favorite shades of blue? Sky blue? Deep blue? Shimmery blue?

I tend to buy light blue nailpolishes because they don't look too bright compared to my very pale skin. I also gravitate towards shimmery or different looking blue nailpolishes.

Monday Challenge | Mini Beauty

heyy girls,

this week I'm back with another Monday challenge! Yeah! This week is about deluxe sized samples. Basically, those products give you more products and cute & practical packaging. Here are the questions for this week challenge...

Do you like mini sized products? Why?

I do like them. I'm not obsessed with them, but I think that they are way better than regular samples. Let's be real here...the packaging is just too cute to resist!
 

What are your favorite mini sized products? Skincare? Makeup?
For skincare, I like the Benefit Total Moisture Facial Cream. It is perfect if you have dry to very dry skin. I also love the Josie Maran Argan Oil to use on my skin or my hair. My favorite mini sized makeup products are Benefit Watt's Up?, Urban Decay Junkie Lipgloss in Naked, and Benefit Benetint.
 

Do you received them as gift when you shop?

I usually receive them as gifts when I shop, for example at Sephora. Or I receive them into palettes like the Urban Decay Naked and Naked 2 palette.

Monday Challenge | Perfect Manicure

heyy girls,

what better than starting the week with a Monday Challenge? I know, I love it too ;) This week is all about nails. I've also decided to show you my top 5 favorite nailpolishes of all time. Let's get started!

What are the tools you use to accomplish a perfect manicure?

First tip that I can give is file your nails instead of clipping them. I've been doing this for the past month and I have seen improvements; my nails are definitely stronger.

 

What is your favorite nailpolish remover?

I've been using the Sally Handsen nailpolish remover since I can't even remember. It's just the product that my mom has been using for ever, and because of her I'm using it too. It does remove well your nailpolish, but isn't too harsh on your nails at the same time.

 

Do you have any nailcare products to recommend?

I don't really have cuticles oils or fancy stuff like that. The only thing that I could recommend is a good base coat that corresponds to your nails' needs.

 

Do you have any trick to help remove cuticles?

Not really. Maybe try to moisturize your hands more often.

 

What is your favorite base coat?

My favorite base coat at the moment is All in One Base by Essie. I bought at Winners at a discount price and it's probably the best deal I've ever made so far. I got it for 6 or 7 $CA and it retails for at least 10$CA at the drugstore. #proudofmyself

Monday Challenge | All About Purses + My Purse Essentials

heyy girls,

I'm back today with another Monday Challenge. I hope you're enjoying them so far, because I know I am ;) This week's challenge is all about purses and I've decided to also show you my Top 5 purse essentials...

     

Do you prefer big purses or small ones?

I do usually go for bigger purses because I feel like I can put everything that I need in them. I also like how they look on me.

 

Do you change your purse regularly? Or do you use it until it's completely worn off before changing it?

I definitely don't change my purse regularly. I will wait until my purse is completely ruined or until I find another purse before changing it.

 

What purse is your favorite?

I haven't found my dream purse yet or a purse that I'm madly in love with... I'm on the hunt for one so leave me comments telling me your favorite purse :)

 

What are your dream purses?

Every night I dream of buying a Michael Kors Large Selma Top-Zip Satchel or some kind of a structured purse like this one. Since dream purses aren't supposed to be affordable, I'm going to continue with another purse that I think looks amazing; it is the Raspail MM from Louis Vuitton.

 

Do you match your purse with your outfit? With your shoes? Or you don't really care?

 I try to make it work with my outfit, but I mostly have neutral purses so they do go well with everything. I don't really try that hard though...

♥ Monday Challenge: Body Hydration ♥

heyy girls,

I recently discovered a beauty blogger named My Beauty and she does weekly challenge on her blog. I thought it was a cool idea so I've decided to do Monday Challenges starting today. This week challenge is all about the body hydration. Here are the questions that comes with today's challenge...

 

Do you hydrate your entire body, or only certain parts? (elbows, knees)

I only hydrate certain parts of my body, like my legs and my arms. I usually go for the areas on my body that I feel like I need to moisturize.

 

Do you hydrate everyday, sometimes, never?

I have a confession to make...I don't moisturize everyday. To be honest, I moisturize when I feel like my skin is dry or when I remember to. I know that I should be moisturizing every singe day, but I'm working on it!

 

What are your favorite textures? Oil, milk, butter, cream?

I love thick moisturizer, so for me the body butter's consistency is perfect. I do like cream formulas too, but the buttery texture is definitely my favorite. I don't really mind oils, but I can't stand the moisturizing milk.
