My Everyday Makeup Routine

Today I am sharing my everyday makeup routine and all of my daily go-to products! 

My Favourite Winter Beauty Products

BITE Beauty Matte Lip Creme

I was SO excited to find out I would be receiving the BITE Beauty box from Influenster this past month. Inside, there were three shades of matte lip creme. I fell in love with them, of course - but here's some more information in case you were wondering about the brand!

Their Facebook page explains what they do, perfectly -- BITE Beauty proves you don’t have to sacrifice performance for a product made from nature. BITE contains the age-defying antioxidant Resveratrol and organic shea and fruit butters for a moisture-rich feel. All of the colourants that make BITE so richly pigmented are food grade approved.

BITE products are available exclusively at Sephora USA and Canada and via the Sephora.com website.

In the specific package that I got, there were three shades in matte lipstick. 

Cava - A light nude shade that is sure to go with just about any look

Red Velvet - A bright cherry red, perfect for the holidays

Glacé - A deeper dusty rose, almost brown shade that would be perfect to throw on for a night out

My favourite one was Cava! Here are some photos of me wearing it:

Current Beauty Favourites

I have been LOVING so many products lately from a bunch of different brands - so I thought, why not share all of the beauty things I've been obsessed with recently?!

Back to School with Jouviance Beauty

As you may or may not know, my college program runs a little different than normal schools, and I started a new term at the beginning of October! I got this package from Jouviance Beauty just in time to add these products into my back-to-school beauty essential routine. Read my full review for each of these items below!

Face-Swapping Makeup Edition: Collab with Tiffany Kwong

I am super excited to share this collaboration post with you all today! I teamed up with Tiffany from The Picky Princess and we decided to do a legitimate "face swap" on each other - and we did each other's makeup! I put my girly and glittery touches into her makeup look, while Tiffany did a super glowy and sophisticated look on me. 

I had never done anyone else's makeup before, but I know that it's very important to properly wash and sterilize any tools you may be using on someone else. I prepped all of my items for Tiffany and washed my brushes so they were ready to go. If you ever want to know how I clean my makeup supplies, comment below to request a tutorial!

We decided to start off with our own base of foundation and concealer, and the rest of the makeup was applied by me!

This was the look that I had come up with! I went for a rose gold eye, shimmery pink lip, and lots of highlight on her cheekbones to accentuate them. I added some glitter to her eyelids for that perfect feminine finish!

Here is a list of all the products I used on Tiffany:

Eyes:

The Naked 3 Palette (Strange, Dust, Limit & Nooner)

Stila Stay All Day black eyeliner

"Dark Brown" ABH Eyebrow Pomade

NYX Rose Gold Face & Body Glitter

Face:

"Watts Up" by Benefit 

Cocoa Contour by Too Faced

Lips

"Petal Pink" by Paladio

I think that it actually turned out super pretty on Tiffany and she looks like a little fairy princess! It was so cool to see my pastel makeup on her, as she usually does her makeup more neutral or dark.

Next, Tiffany did my makeup. I was so excited to see what she was going to do with the look!

Here is a list of all the products Tiffany used on me:

Eyes:

Maybelline The Nudes Palette

Stila's Stay All Day Liquid Eyeliner in black

Anastasia's Beverly Hills DIPBROW Pomade in dark brown

Covergirl LashBlast mascara

Face:

Jordane Cosmetics contour palette

Benefit CORALista blush

Lips:

Rimmel London Moisture renewed lip clear liner

MAC's Ruby Woo lipstick

Sephora's Cream lip stain in Always Red

I think that this look is so pretty and very bronze with the perfect pop of red on my lips! I loved how Tiffany perfectly lined my lips and how amazing the eyeshadow turned out.

KISS Beauty Products Review + Fall Makeup Tutorial

I recently got a package in the mail from KISS Products and it was filled with a variety of beauty items from lipstick to eyeshadows! Over the past couple of weeks, I've had some fun trying them out and incorporating them into some of my daily makeup looks.  

As far as the products go, I was impressed with them for sure! Especially the lipsticks. The prices are SUPER affordable and they offer a wide range of items/colours to pick from as well. 

My favourites would have to be the EGOISM velvety matte lipstick and the ulti-matte lip crayon in the shade Harlem.

I decided to create a fall makeup look that uses two of the eyeshadows and a shimmery off-red lipstick from KISS. You can watch the tutorial at the bottom of this post!

The single shadows that I had received were not my go-to colours, but I thought they were perfect for fall! The eyeshadow itself crumbles really easily and I found it hard to blend on my eyelid, but the final look turned out pretty good, I think!

Watch the makeup tutorial video below:

My Perfume Collection

Today I am sharing my perfume collection! I love scents that are sweet, sugary, and feminine. Light and girly fragrances is where it's at. I will be going through a few of my favourites - so keep reading!

ARI by Ariana Grande

This one remind me of raspberry and marshmallows. The perfect sweet scent in the most beautiful crystal bottle with an adorable white pom pom for added cuteness!

Daisy by Marc Jacobs

Who doesn't love this one? From the packaging to the beautiful scent, I think this is one of my all-time favourites! 

Chloé 

This mini roll-on is the effect perfume to-go and is a super chic scent that I actually really like. It's probably the most different and distinct from any other fragrance I own. 

Juicy Couture Perfume Sticks

These wax perfume sticks are also great for popping in my backpack or purse and are actually quite strongly scented when worn! Juicy Couture perfume will always be where it's at for me - I am obsessed with it!

Juicy Couture Mini Sprays

Yes, more Juicy perfume. The Viva La Juicy has got to be my top pick from the bunch (of course!)
