NARS Explicit Content Climax Mascara Duo - Holiday Gift 2022

This deal is too good to pass! Two full size NARS Climax Mascaras for only CA$ 40 from Sephora Canada!! I am always so excited about gift sets because I get some really amazing products at great prices but this just went up a notch. Usually there is a mini and a full size mascara in a holiday gift set but this is so much better! I usually use my mascaras for 3-4 months so these two tubes must last me 6-7 months and all that for just 40 bucks! Maybe I need to stock up on this one! For a full review click here

NARS High Profile Cheek Palette Review and Swatches

NARS blush palette for the Holidays 2021 got me so excited, I couldn't resist getting one for myself and I am so pleased to share it with you today with the swatches. This is probably the best blush palette I have tried from NARS in a while mainly because all shades have a smooth and buttery, non glittery finish which looks absolutely stunning on my skin. All the shades are super pigmented and long wearing on me. There is a gold bronze-y highlight, a couple contouring shades and three pinkish hues for an instant pop on my medium skin tone. If you are looking for the ultimate blush palette, then this might be it! Keep reading for swatches and review.

NARS Climax Mascara Review

Hello lovelies, 
Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving followed by shopping Black Friday deals! I did all my shopping online and those Black Friday deals will continue into the weekend for most retailers so there is still time if you need to order something. 
I wanted to quickly share a mascara that really amazed me. It is none other than the NARS Climax Mascara which retails for $32 at Sephora and is also available in the mini size for $17 so you can still try it out or add to a stocking stuffer. This mascara gave me the most clump free lashes ever. It adds volume and gives them a nice lift and curl. 
I can't wait to share how it looks on my lashes, so keep reading and get shocked at how much of a difference it makes...

NARS Voyageur Eyeshadow Palette in Quartz Review and Swatches

Oh my gosh! I am back at it again! This summer has been insanely busy as my kids grow up and their activities and curiosity goes up to a whole new level. I am super occupied, however, I never stop thinking about my makeup diaries and how much I neglected it. I actually neglected myself and everytime I look at my feet, I cringe at why I didn't go for a pedicure yet... so it is that crazy busy! Anyways, I wanted to share this gorgeous NARS Voyageur Eyeshadow Palette in detail on the blog. I posted about it on Instagram when I purchased it and since then I have taken it to two vacation trips and this palette has helped me pull elegant looks for date nights and even for strolls around the city. Its definitely become my most used palette over this Spring/Summer and I can't wait to talk more about it.

NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer in Ginger (Medium 2) Review and Swatches

Some products are so good, they need no introduction and I use this concealer every single day but never did a full review on it because I felt that everyone already owns one. Its the world famous, everyone's favorite concealer, the NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer (C$37 for 6ml). It is the best formula for covering dark circles and other blemishes on the face. I mostly use this on my under eye area to brighten up my eyes and it always looks great. I never get a powdery, flaky look that happens with some other concealers. It smooths out the undereye area and adds enough brightness to make me look well rested. Its a medium to full coverage formula that looks very natural on skin.

More on this and swatches on the shade Ginger in today's blog...

Nonetheless, it seems like a well thought out palette. So, let's move on the the pictures, swatches and then my experience.

With no more snow, we are headed for warmer temperatures this week, however, the past few days have been incredibly gloomy, cloudy and windy. It makes me so lethargic. No amount of makeup or bright scarves or even my neon orange manicure, could brighten up the day. There is something so magical about the sun...
**All I wanna say is I miss my natural lighting for pics! hahaha #BloggerProblems :P:P**

Anyways, I thought about sharing this new favourite with you guys. Its the Nars Pro Prime Smudge Proof Eyeshadow Base. You will be shocked to see the swatches at the end of this post!
