Favourite Nail Polish

I wear nail polish pretty much all year - reason being is if I don't have any nailpolish on I will bite my nails. So needless to say I've tried many many many brands and colours. But my all time, absolute favourite is JOE FRESH!!!!! The colours are stunning, it applies smoothly and it has awesome staying power. It doesn't chip for a long time! I am very impressed.

Here's the thing - people might think that it's cheap since you can get 3 for $10 CAD. But the truth is that the bottles are a lot smaller than other brands you might find out there. So in reality, the price of Joe Fresh nailpolish (ml for ml) is actually the same as that of high end brands like OPI and China Glaze (Yes I did the math lol).

I love them all but my favourite colour is Coral.

50s makeup

I really like 50s makeup - it's versatile, classy and has stood the test of time. You can always personalize it by changing the shade of lipstick, or adding extreme lashes.

Products used:
- Clinique gel liner
- Lise Watier eyeshadow in beige glace
- Yaby light brown shadow for the crease
- OPI red lip liner and Inglot red lipstick
- Cinema Secrets Foundation
- Cover FX loose powder
- Gosh bronzer to contour
- Mac lashes #35
- White eyeliner in the waterline

Olay Regenerist Touch of Foundation VS Total Effects Touch of Foundation

Let's face it - I am lazy when it comes to the morning makeup routine and more often then not I end up doing my makeup in the car!!! So cutting corners is what I'm all about and that's why  I decided to try the Olay moisturizers with a touch of foundation - they are esentially tinted moisturizers but the only issue is that they are only available in one shade. You will be fine with the colour if your complexion is fair-medium. If your skin is very light, then these might end up slightly too dark.

They are both quite decent at evening out the skin tone, they are well formulated and even contain sunscreen. They are not completely matte - they have a slight sheen which gives skin a healthy glow. But if you are pro-matte, then you can always use powder over it.

So which one do I prefer? At the moment, Olay Regenerist because it is slightly more matte than the Total Effects and I love the way it blends on my skin but I wouldn't hesitate to recommend either of the two.
