Feeling Blue

Hey ya'll!

First of all, I hope everybody's Good Friday has been going splendidly!

Today, was a lazy day for me but I had errands to run around town. I have been wanting to try something new so I decided to take a page out of my girl Mila Victoria's book and dare to wear COLOURED  brows.



I was completely stoked to rock it out today and decided to use my MAC Navy Stain eye pencil. I will work my way to the coloured brows big leagues soon enough.

So, how did my day go with coloured brows, you may ask? Well, allow me to tell you that it is not for the faint of heart or for those who want to blend into the crowds. I got looks. Plenty of looks. I did have a few women stop me and say that they loved my eyebrows though!

I'm usually not one to be comfortable standing out so much but in the honour of reinvention and becoming a better, brighter, more colourful me, this was the perfect step.

All-in-all, I absolutely adored rocking the coloured brows look and will for sure be venturing to rock them again soon. I keep eyeing my other creamy eye pencils and am itching to try them out. The possibilities are endless.

Illasmasqua Eye Brow Cake Review

This is my first beauty product review and I couldn't be more excited about this product!

Today's review is on Illamasqua's Eye Brow Cake in Gaze.





The eye brow cakes will run you £14.50 ($23 CAD) each.

Now, before you start in on me with all the "GIRL! You are crazy!" or  "You paid what now for that little thing!?" Listen carefully. This is one of the best products I've tried when it comes to filling my eyebrows. Ever. Illamasqua was on point when they created this little baby.

The eye brow cakes can be used wet or dry depending on the look you're after.



When used dry, they give you more of a natural look. Used wet, they give a more dramatic finish to your overall look. Now, I've used it both dry and wet, to which I must say, I love it both ways. However, my favourite way to wear Illamasqua's eye brow cake is paired with their sealing gel (I will be reviewing the sealing gel at a later date). Let me tell you, once that sealing gel is added to the eye brow cake and you fill your eyebrows, you better believe that your eyebrows are there to stay!

To test out the power of the sealing gel, I went dancing. Anybody who knows me, knows that I love to dance and twerk like it's going out of style.  I must say, I was very pleased with the fact that my eyebrows I had filled earlier that day using the sealing gel and eye brow cake, were still perfectly intact! Amazing!

Overall, this product has now become a staple in my make up bag and I urge anybody who is looking for an incredible filler for your eyebrows to definitely give Illamasqua a try. You will not be disappointed.

A New Beginning

Hey ya'll!

So...

What is this blog all about? Well, let me tell you:

I seem to try a load of new products since having moved to the UK from Canada. I've searched online and usually don't have the greatest luck with finding reviews pertaining to the product I'm specifically looking for. Therefore, your girl here decided to start a product review (also any hauls I partake in will be featured) blog of her own in order to help anybody else who may encounter some of the same problems as me. Especially when moving to a new country. I plan on using this blog to review makeup, hair, beauty and fashion products.

I also want to use this blog to share lifestyle and hair tips. Being a Naturalista - and a product junkie!- for the past five years, I want to share my up's and down's with you all. Especially since moving to a new country and having to cope with not having my usual brands available. I will gladly answer any questions you may have regarding your hair as well.


For now, how about you sit back, relax and let Miss May help you out. :-)

P.S. I will be be revamping the blog as soon as possible. Please be patient with me through the changes. Thanks!
