So if you would like to read more about this fab find, simply head over to Sew Crafty Angel and read my guest post by clicking here!

Interview with Amie Skincare Founder Fiona Parkhouse + Giveaway (6 Winners!)


I recently had the opportunity to interview the founder of Amie Naturally Kind Skincare, Fiona Parkhouse, and asked her a few questions relating to her brand and her background in the beauty industry. This skincare line is relatively new to the drugstore scene here in Canada and despite its short time on the Canadian market has already gotten a lot of praise. I myself have tried a few products from the UK based line and so far am super impressed with the range which boasts natural and safe ingredients at a very affordable price point. One of my favourites from the line is actually their Morning Clear Purifying Facial Wash (reviewed here), and I'm excited to have partnered with Amie to also bring you a fab giveaway. That's right - six readers will win their very own tube of Morning Clear Purifying Facial Wash, so keep reading to find out how to enter!

Sothys Escale Estivale Spring-Summer 2015 Makeup Collection: Beach and the City | Review + Makeup Look


With spring officially right around the corner (although it doesn't feel like it quite yet here), it's time to put ourselves in the mood, and what better way than by brightening our faces with some added pop of colour? I have to admit, I wish we could just skip spring and go straight to summer, but the chances of that happening are very slim. So for now, I am delighting myself with this gorgeous Sothys Escale Estivale Spring-Summer 2015 Beach and the City Collection* which will be launching next month. This coming season is all about "less is more," and Sothys has translated this into sheer makeup and nail polishes that can also be built on to bring more intensity to the overall look. This collection definitely had me ohh-ing and ahh-ing, it is simply gorgeous! I have four items to share with you today, so let's get right into it shall we?

Make Up For Ever Mist & Fix | Review


Sometimes, no matter how much time and effort I put into doing my makeup, it just does not look as I would have hoped. I remember the first time I heard about makeup setting sprays. I couldn't imagine it would make that much of a difference. Well, I was wrong! I don't use one on an every day basis as I've been keeping my makeup to a minimum lately, but when I go through all the proper steps of full coverage makeup such as using a foundation, concealer, powder, blush, eye shadow, etc., I find myself always reaching for one of my trusty makeup sprays because it helps everything blend together nicely. I've been trying the new and improved Make Up For Ever Mist & Fix* out, which has recently been re-launched. Does it do what it claims? Keep reading to find out!

7 Signs It's Time for a Haircut + My Before and After Pics


I think we're all guilty of searching the web for advice on how to make our hair grow extra fast. In fact, I wrote a post all about this topic a while back when I shared my 21 Tips for Growing Long, Luscious Hair FAST! I still swear by these tips today, and will for sure be applying them now that I've finally decided to chop a big chunk of my hair off. Since my hair growth post went down so well, I thought I would tackle the topic of haircuts and give some of my tips and advice on knowing when it's time for the chop. Can you relate?

Get To Know Me | The Girl Behind The Blog


This one's a long time coming! I've had this tag on my to-do list for the longest time but never got around to it, until now. I am feeling more confident than ever and think you all deserve to get to know me on a more personal level after all of these years (for some of you)! You may or may not have guessed from watching some of my past videos, but I am quite the introvert in real life and usually avoid being the center of attention, but today I am taking a step towards opening up to you guys and sharing bits and pieces of my personal life with you. A good starting point I thought would be to tackle a popular tag here on the interweb, the Get To Know Me TAG. So I'll be answering these 25 questions that span a variety of topics and interests so that you get to know the face behind the blog a bit better!

Getting Messy with Jealous Body Scrub | Review


Body scrubs seem to be all the rage right now. I've tried quite a few over the years, however I've only tried a handful of natural ones, which I've quickly grown to love. There are of course many DIY recipes out there, but it sure is nice to get treated to one that is already made for you. Coming out of the rougher months, my skin could definitely use a little extra TLC, so when Jealous Body Scrub* showed up in my mailbox, I couldn't help but put it to the test that same day.

NEW La Roche-Posay Effaclar BB Blur | First Impression + Review


As you may already know, I am far from waking up every morning with a clear complexion. Some days are better, some days are worse. My skin seems to go through phases, and on days when I need a little extra help from my friends (aka the makeup stash), I like reaching for products that offer a bit of coverage to still look presentable and not scare people away. Jokes aside, I have become much more comfortable in my own skin and now often go out without any makeup on, but of course I always get that confidence boost when I know my imperfections aren't the main focus when people see me. Insert the new La Roche-Posay Effaclar BB Blur*, an anti-shine unifier that promises to blur the appearance of pores, imperfections, while keeping the skin matte. This soon to be released, all-in-one product definitely caught my attention as I could definitely benefit from its claims - so on top of this review, I decided to film a first impression video so you can see for yourself how it works!
