I'm so late on this, but Happy New Year! I hope the new year is treating everyone well- it sure has been good to me so far :)<br />
<br />
Anyways, i've missed out on so much since i've been gone for quite a little while now since my last post was in November *sigh*<br />
I've had an overwhelming courseload for the past couple of months since i'm in my final year of Business School and it's basically crunch time, trying to get all i need done for graduation in the summer. <br />
<br />
I do enjoy blogging and i love my blog, however there are times where it becomes quite difficult to maintain the blog with school and my social life. It is the new year and i decided to review the direction i'd like to take the blog- adding new features to spice things up. I want the blog to be more exciting and a more enjoyable read for readers out there. Therefore, over the next couple of weeks i'll be tweaking and adding new updates and information as to the upcoming changes i'll be making to the blog. I hope my dedicated followers will continue to enjoy my blog, as well as new followers. <br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;"><i>Have any suggestions on what features to include? </i></span><br />

<i> </i> I purchased this foundation around christmas of 2010 when i finally got matched correctly. A few years prior, i was in Toronto and visited a mac store where the makeup artist attempted to match me but failed to do so with a decent shade. I didn't like the shade because it didn't match my skintone properly and i wasn't about to pay for that. So anyways, right before christmas last year i was visiting the mall and decided to try and get matched again. I was out of my Clinique foundation and wanted to try mac since i've heard such good things about mac for years. I was matched and the finish was nearly flawless- i loved it! However, after using this foundation for a few days it started to irritate my skin and left my face with small little pimples. Now i've never had acne so i know it's not that- it was some sortof allergic reaction. I did stop using it until my face cleared up and gave it another shot to see if it really was the mac foundation--- it was. As much as i like the flawless finish it gave my face, i could not sacrifice a flawless finish if it was going to irritate and ruin my face. Sadly, i had to stop using it.<br />
<br />
<i><span style="font-size: large;"><u><b>Verdict</b></u></span></i><br />
The Mac studio fix fluid foundation is a nice foundation apart from irritating my skin. It has a thick consistency (not too thick and not watery) that is easy to apply with a foundation brush. I didn't really have any issues with the foundation streaking and it did not dry too fast either. I would classify this foundation as full coverage in my opinion, or medium to buildable. It is definitely a buildable coverage foundation. I don't wear concealer when i use this foundation; it covers flaws so easily without too much product. Other than the irritation on my skin, the other thing i didn't like about this foundation was the fact that it made my face very pale in some photos taken with a flash because of the spf in the formulation.</div>

<i>** I've used this foundation for over a year** </i> </div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This used to be my favourite foundation, up until last year. The first time i tried Clinique about 8 years ago in the UK. I thought it was an amazing product, but i didn't purchase it when i came back to Canada because at the time i did not wear foundation. When i started wearing foundation, i looked all over to try and get a foundation that matched my skintone; i think that was the hardest part. Foundations were either too light or too dark for me, it was very disappointing. I didn't think Clinique was available here, until i went to the mall one year and saw their kiosk in The Bay. I was so excited, i immediately went over to get matched- and they actually had a shade for me! A shade that matched me; it wasn't to light or too dark; it wasn't too punk or too yellow; it was just right.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The foundation itself is a nice consistency that is medium coverage but buildable. It's easy to apply with either your fingers, a sponge or a foundation brush; I've tried all three and prefer using a foundation brush. I find that this foundation is long lasting, stays put, and leaves me looking flawless. This does not dry out my skin, nor does it irritate my sensitive skin. I've fallen asleep with it on, and it never once gave me pimples or breakouts. The only thing i would change about this foundation is to add a pump instead of pouring the foundation out of the bottle. It's not super thick but it's not runny either, so when it's finishing i have to spend a bit more time trying to get the foundation out of the bottle. This isn't a major problem for me, because what i do is leave the foundation upside down so it's easier to get to.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
This has been a favourite foundation of mines. The only reason why i stopped using this foundation was to try other foundations to see if they are any better. I bought MAC studio fix fluid foundation because i heard so many good things about MAC Cosmetics, which i'll be doing a review on soon. </div>

SHOES, shoes, BEAUTIFUL shoes!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here's a preview of the GIANMARCO Lorenzi Fall-Winter 2011/2012 collection. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love the designs and elegance of Gianmarco LORENZI designs; they are just so beautiful and eye catching. I love that they are so feminine and sparkly and comes with matching bags. The collection has variety and any woman will find at least one shoe that they adore. There's studs, spikes, crystals, fur, leather, lace- just about every kind of shoe. STOP! Okay, okay, so these shoes are way too EXPENSIVE, but nonetheless they are still beautiful DROOLICIOUS heels (^.^)<br />
Enjoy the preview & have a happy friday,<br />
Cheers!</div>

This month i'll be blogging more often with product reviews, more swatches, FOTD, VOTD, and more addition to the blog *yeaaaaah!*<br />
I plan on posting even more often this month than what i did last month. There was so much going on that i hardly had any time to blog about anything. I had family visiting, illness to cope with, exams and assignments at school-- It's been hectic to say the least. But this month i'm in such a happier mood and feeling more as ease with a bit more time to spare-- at least i do for now but hoping it'll remain this way *hehehe*. So I've been thinking of what changes to make to the blog to keep it fresh and spice it up a bit. I plan on adding new features such as the FOTD and VOTD posts. We'll see where it goes; if it seems to work then i'll definitely do more of those posts. </div>

<i>** I've had these liners for about 6 months** </i></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b></b> Of the three colours, my favourite is the Extreme Blue. It's such a pretty vibrant colour that brightens up so many looks. However, the Gold and Silver haven't worked out so well for me so far. I've tried a few times but i just don't like the way they look so i stick with wearing the Blue; especially when i'm feeling for a pop of colour. The best way i like to wear the blue is when i'm wearing a neutral or light eye shadow, then i apply this liner and BAM! My eyes pop and look amazing *yeaaaaaaah!* </div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><i><span style="font-size: large;"><u>Verdict </u></span></i></b></div>
The bright colours seem to work better for me. Extreme Blue is great when i need a pop of colour but not over dramatic. It's easy to apply, and i can go for very thin lines or thicker lines with more application. This is my favourite liquid liner ever. They are very affordable and of such good quality. Why pay more when NYX does the same job?<br />
<i>A word of caution:</i> Please avoid getting these liners in your eyes because they burn like a MOTHA MOTHA!<br />
<br />
<b>Re-purchase?</b> I would re-purchase Extreme Blue, and I will definitely try the other bright colours in this line, but i wouldn't try the gold or silver again.Beauty Style Addicthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09097180022177601504noreply@blogger.com65tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7384170800185507060.post-64958451536816142672011-10-07T00:24:00.002-04:002011-10-07T05:01:13.080-04:00{Swatches} Manly 120 Palette<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

I've had this palette for a few years now, and i think doing a review is well overdue. As you can see there is visible wear and tear to the palette; although i haven't used the shadows all that much. It fell from me right before i took this picture, so you can see that some of the shadows broke up a little-- the reason for the palette being a little messy. This is the largest palette i have, and go straight for it most of the time when i decide to wear makeup. I did say that i would do a review, and dont worry because i will soon after i complete an upcoming exam *yeaaah* So for now, enjoy the swatches (^-^)<br />

I've heard of E.L.F for years now but never actually made an order with them until now. I felt it was time i give them a try and see how well their products work for me. I live in Canada so i wasn't sure if it'd be worth it to order the products and pay $14.95 for shipping and also risk the chance of being charge customs fees. But last week ELF was having a promotional sale, where they were only charging $1.98 for shipping in the U.S. With this promotion, i still had to pay $4.97 shipping to Canada, but that's much better than the original $14.95 fee.<br />
<br />
It took a bit over one week to get my package, which i'm pretty excited about. As well i did not get charged any customs fees *woot woot*<br />
So here's a pic and a list of the products i bought. I will review them after i've had enough time to fully test them out.<br />

<b>Laneige Moisture Power Essential Skin Refiner (Toner)</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Size: </b>200 ml</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Price:</b> Approx. $26 CAD</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Where to buy:</b> S. Korea </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Rating:</b> 4/5</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Likes:</b> Almost everything ^-^</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Dislikes:</b> Not sold locally. A bit pricey. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<div style="color: #ff0033;">
<i>** I've been using this toner since last year along with the <a href="http://beautystyleaddict.blogspot.com/2011/05/review-laneige-multi-cleanser.html">Laneige Multi Cleanser</a>** </i></div>
<i> </i> </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Their Claim: </b>Moisturizing skin refiner with purifying and softening effect for clear skin. Removes dried keratin and purifies the skin for clear and transparent skin. Bio Dusali, extracted from fermented seaweed with strong energy of
life, supplies energy to the skin and promotes keratin turnover, while
the Hyacinth extracts purify the skin from heavy metal, smog, and other
harmful materials to leave the skin moist and transparent. Exfoliating enzymes gently remove the dead skin cells with less
irritation. Skin-nourishing royal jelly extracts and sugar cane extracts
refine dry and rough skin for moist and healthy skin.</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>My experience:</b> What can i say about this toner? Where do i start! I love this toner. It truly is moisturizing and gentle enough to not irritate my sensitive skin. It comes in such a cute bottle that looks so sleek and stylish; not overly dressed up, but rather simple and chic. It's a good size bottle (200ml) which lasts a long time, as little goes a long way. (I've used a bottle for well over 6 months and still there's a lot left).</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
As for the smell, It's light and very pleasant. I can't pinpoint what it smells like, but it's a very light scent. I do not smell or feel any alcohol in this product which is really awesome for me. <br />
I use this just as i would any toner/skin refiner. I dab some on a cotton pad and gentle cleanse my face with it. After i'm done my face is left feeling moisturized, soft and clean<i>.</i> This is by far the best toner/skin refiner i've used so far. I love almost everything about it; except the fact that it's not available locally, and that it's a bit expensive. Other than that, i have no complaints. <i></i></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Verdict:</b> The Laneige Moisture Power Essential Skin Refiner is a great buy. It does exactly what it says it will. It cleans my face very well, and leaves it soft and moisturized NOT irritated. I have re-purchased, and will continue to do so.</div>

<br />
For his Fall/Winter 2011 look book, Christian Louboutin collaborated with photographer Peter Lippman. The portraits are inspired by classic paintings, from Francois Clouet's "Elizabeth of Austria<b><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"></span></span></span></b> to Francisco De Zurbaran's <i>"Saint Dorothy</i>" portrait.<br />
<br />
The new collection is mostly fur, studs, and suede. My favourite would have to be the Daffodile Strass & Very Mix. <br />

I cant wait for it to all be over so i can seriously spend more time making new posts and just having a little fun. The summer's almost over and i've yet to take a visit to the beach :( Well i hope i can go even if it's just once before the summer's officially over.<br />

It's quite unfortunately that i have to be studying during the summer but i try to look on the bright side- i'm finishing a year early and it'll be over soon. I know it'll be worth it in the end, but it just sucks that i'm unable to do as much postings as i'd like to right now. But never fear followers, this draught will not last forever, it too will be over soon. In August i'll have a bit more time, and i do plan to do some reviews and swatches then. Until then, i leave you with a music video for your enjoyment.<br />

Now i'm getting back into wearing them, only thing now is that i have only a few in my collection. It's been a long time since i've bought perfume and i really want to get back into starting my collection again. That is why i want to know what your favourite perfumes are! When i was younger i remember my aunt bought me a bottle of White Diamonds by Elizabeth Taylor and i was sooo in love with this perfume. But now i don't really have a favourite... So what is yours girlies?<br />

Evidently, there's been some controversy over this video being too violent, because she shot the guy who attacked her.<br />

<b>Their Claim: </b>A new 4-in-1 cleanser removes makeup, removes sunscreen, exfoliates and cleanses at once. Micro-sized dense foam removes makeup completely leaving fresh feeling. Mild plant-based cleansing ingredients and Papain enzymes, the exfoliating enzymes extracted from papaya fruit, remove makeup completely and exfoliate for smoother skin.<b> </b>Completely removes base makeup, such as sun cream, BB cream, and foundation, as well as color makeup.<br />

<b>My experience:</b> I absolutely love the multi cleanser. It has a pleasant citric scent, that is quite refreshing in the morning. The first time i used it i was very suprised at the fact that it really does remove makeup! It has these tiny little exfoliating particles that feels really nice on the skin; it does not irritate my sensitive skin. And not only does it remove makeup, but it's also very cleansing and moisturizing-- it does not leave my face feeling dry after. My face just feels soft, i feel awake, my skin appears to be glowing everytime i use it (or maybe it's my imagination lol).<i> </i><br />
<b>Verdict:</b> The Laneige Multi Cleanser is everything i want and need in a cleanser; it is worth every penny! I would re-purchase this over and over again without hesitation!Beauty Style Addicthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09097180022177601504noreply@blogger.com9tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7384170800185507060.post-78306612193817339472011-05-07T22:26:00.000-04:002011-05-07T22:26:33.442-04:00Happy Mother's DayI just wanted to take the time out to acknowledge this special day and say happy mother's day to all the mothers out there.<br />
<br />
I'm also wishing my mommy a happy mother's day. She's the best mom in the entire world; i'm sure we all say that about our mothers, but she's the best mom i could have ever asked for. She's my inspiration, my icon, my hero; she's my best friend, and i love her with all my heart... and maybe one day when i become a mother, i'll be a great mom just like her *blush*. <br />
