Review on - Joico K-PAK Products!

I recently purchased Joico K-PAK shampoo, conditioner and deep conditioning treatment and so fair I’m loving the results.

My hair feels well conditioned and silky but not weighed down with this. It makes my hair feel so much better. Smooth, shiny, stronger. My hair is extremely fine textured and prone to protein loss and breakage. 

I haven’t been using to for long so I can’t say it helped hair loss and breakage but the overall quality of my hair has improved greatly. Are you a deep condition fanatic like myself? If so, what products do you love let me know in the comments below!

Happy Valentines Day Everyone! 

I needed to pick up some items at the mall and

decided to treat myself for this oh so special day. I can't wait to try Mac's Mineralize Skinfinsh in Lightscapade.

 I was originally going to get Mac's Soft and Gentle which I've had before and loved, so I thought why not try something different. I'm also on the hunt for the perfect baby pink lip that suits me and I'm feeling like it's impossible. I always feel like it washes me out or its just light and looks like I have "foundation lips". I'm still on the hunt but I picked up Mac's Please Me, it's more of a coral pink but it was the only one I was feeling. Any suggestions on a nice light pink lip for fair skin tones? Please let me know!

Tarte’s Amazonian Clay 12 hour Full Coverage Foundation SPF 15

Let me just say that I love this stuff. It's medium coverage but is buildable to full coverage. I have very fair skin with pink to neutral undertones. I got this in "fair beige," and the color is absolutely perfect. My skin looks amazing, and it stays matte for a good 9-10 hours. Plus a little bit goes a long way. I don't have to set it with powder, and it's very pigment dense without having to use a lot of product. And it's so creamy that if you wanted to mix it with moisturizer, you could. You can dab it on with just your fingers or even a stippling foundation brush to blend it together I personally prefer to use my Beauty Blender (which is a other obsession of mine)

So some of the PROS and CONS-

PROS: It’s winter here in Canada and I’m finding my skin dry and I don’t find itching to dry patches like some foundations (it makes the dry parts looks moisturized and the oily parts look matte), it stays very matte (but about 9 hours), it has very good coverage, you don't need to use a lot, there is no funky smell, it has SPF, it doesn't transfer/rub off to my clothes or hands, and it doesn't turn orange. Best of all, its cruelty free! 



Cons: The price in Canada its $49, which isn’t unreasonable but still, is expensive to some but I tell you it’s worth it. Another con for me is the SPF, I always prefer my foundation to not have it I find when I take photos I can have a white cased, although have experienced with this foundation. I personally like using sunscreen or a SPF moisturizer if I’m looking for sun protection.

But overall I am a convert. I will buy this again and again. This is a great foundation, from a wonderful make up line that’s formulated WITHOUT: - Parabens- Sulfates- Synthetic Fragrances- Petrochemicals- Phthalates- and cruelty free. What are your thoughts on the foundation or any other Tarte’s products?

Anastasia Of Beverly Hills - Brow Wiz

Anastasia Of Beverly Hills - Brow Wiz hands down the best brow pencil I've ever used! I have very thin sparse eyebrows and usually don't leave the house without at least filling in my brows, I have tried plenty of drugstore pencils and powders, and the first time I used this brow wiz I was amazed at the finished result. The formulation of the brow pencil is so smooth and perfect for whatever brow look you're trying to achieve. If you want a lighter, more natural look, all you have to do is just be more light handed with the pencil, and if you want a bolder brow, you can just be a little more heavy handed.

My eyebrows now look fuller, defined and sculpted when I fill them in, but in a natural way, not harsh at all, you can build up the intensity of it but I'm not a strong brow lover I like a more natural brow. 

I love that it also brings a spoolie on one end for more convenience. It's hard to tell how much product comes in the pencil but if I'm very satisfied with the result, I don't mind paying for a good product, Can't wait to try out more of Anastasia's products. Bottom line, go try this stuff it's freaking awesome, I will def continue to re-purchase! Have you fell head over heals for the Brow Wiz? I would love to hear your feedback on Anastasia’s products or your must have brow pencil?

Cheers,
