I’ve created a makeup look with the following products:

Brow Show ( Truly amazing eyebrow shaping gel. I absolutely love it! I love how easy it is to use and it applies very nicely. I also love how natural it looks. The colour is perfect for my eyebrow colour. I have the colour Light/Medium)

Eyeshadow Base ( A truly amazing base that really intensifies colour and maximizes hold. Soft and creamy consistency and I adore this!)

Matte Eyeshadow ( I applied this on top of the Eyeshadow base all the way up my eyebrow. The colour that I have is PINK LEMONADE. It’s a wonderful Matte eye shadow and I love using this on top of the eyeshadow base.

Eye & Brow Palette ( amazing eyebrow powders and perfect highlight powder. Incredible eyeshadows that are very pigmented and last all day.)

The Skinny Palette ( This comes in 6 various palettes with various colour harmonies. I used the Taupe Neutrals. I absolutely adore this and it is amazing pigmentation. Lasts all day and I love how compact it is.

I also used the Chrome Eyeshadow in the colour Rose Gold and it has a creamy consistency. I’m absolutely in love with this and I’m going to purchase them all and backups too. It is soft, creamy and beautiful. I highly recommend you try these.

Skinny Gel Eyeliner (I used this all around my waterline for definition. I have the colour Black Onyx. This is very long lasting and waterproof. I love how soft and creamy this is and it applies smoothly and nicely. Just letting you know this does not twist back down so don’t over twist the tip.)

Full Blast Mascara ( Incredible mascara that grabs all the lashes and makes them longer and fuller. I’m absolutely loving this mascara and can’t get enough of it. The brush and bristles are really incredible. They really grab all the eyelashes and ones that I never knew I had! I highly recommend this mascara. Loving it!

On my lips I’m wearing BigShow Lacquer in the colour LOVE FIERCELY and on top I dabbed the Chrome Eyeshadow in the Rose Gold! I’m SO LOVING IT!

RiRi Introduces Crush by Rihanna – INFO

A Daring, Mischievous, and Intoxicating New Fragrance!

I’m very excited about  Rihanna’s New Fragrance. The bottle is absolutely beautiful and the the fragrance sounds like it is spicy and sweet! I’m a huge fan of Rihanna and I’m very excited about her new fragrance launch. crush-by-rihanna-box

 

September 11, 2016– Rihanna announces the debut of Crush by Rihanna, the second fragrance in her namesake RiRi collection. Crush is a mysteriously sexy and provocative scent. Breaking boundaries and setting new rules, this perfume feels empowering, strong, confident, and unapologetic.

RiRi CRUSHES it with her newest fragrance – sensual woody notes pair with playful red fruits and pink musks to create an intoxicating fragrance with an undeniably fun, feminine twist. The addictive floriental opens with a vibrant splash of bergamot, juicy mandarin and vivacious pink peppercorn. At its heart, pink rose is accented with spicy ylang drizzled in the tangy sweetness of red berries for a mouthwatering signature; while creamy musk, cedarwood and sexy patchouli combine to leave a lush, lasting impression.

The bottle, designed by Rihanna, inspired by the original RiRi bottle, combines a sense of luxury and femininity. Its rich golden tones create an irresistible allure that is accented by a playful touch of pink on the outer box. The eye catching, luxurious jewelry-inspired pattern on the cap is alluring to the touch, and is carried through to the outer box to create a chic, high-fashion contrast to the bottle’s feminine lines.

Crush by Rihanna will be available exclusively at Shoppers Drug Mart and beautyboutique.ca beginning September 11, 2016 for $69 EDP (100mL) — and a limited-edition holiday gift set containing a 100mL EDP Spray, 75mL Body Lotion and 6mL Rollerball will be available at $70 for the holidays.

#TakeyourChance CHANEL Launch Toronto

bestdayblogger blog header

Chance Eau Vive “You have a new opportunity” -CHANEL

The above quote speaks volumes for me!

4570

I’ve had the most wonderful experience last week. I graciously received a VIP invitation by CHANEL to join them at the Launch of the new CHANEL Chance  at Yorkdale Mall in Hudson’s Bay. The CHANEL Chance Lounge was filled with various stations of entertainment. There was a makeup artist ( Kris Wares), DJ( Gimmemar) Photo booth, artist (Chris J. Nevin), Card reader and delicious food and drinks. I felt like I was transported to a magical place!  I took the chance and went to each station to have a new experience. I tried everything for the first time and it opened up my senses!

I had my makeup touched up by the lovely and talented Kris Wares. The lovely blogger in the photo is IG (@styleblogca). We chatted and she gave me many tips on how to apply makeup. I’ll be using these tips for my future video tutorials. 459245964597

I  took some lovely photos at the photo booth. I love photo booths so much because you get to keep those moments with you. Very nice touch to the evening.

img_4383

Following the photo booth I had a Tarot card reading. It was my first time doing this. I wasn’t nervous at all actually. It was a positive reading and accurate too. Following my Tarot card reading the lovely artist Chris J. Nevin drew a sketch of me. I adore it and I’m framing it for my office.

I also had my hands massaged with one of the new creams. Did you know that all the Chance fragrances have lotions, creams, and they even have hair fragrance without alcohol! You’ve got to stop by The Hudsons Bay and smell them! They are amazing!

The Four  Fragrances

Chance Eau Vive ( A wave of energy. A boost of vitality, explosive character, floral-zesty)

 Chance eau FRAÎCHE ( Natural and casual, vibrant and sparkling, happiness and fantasy.)

 Chance eau Tendre ( A delicious caress. A burst of tenderness. A poetic whisper. Wrap yourself in CHANCE EAU TENDRE It is a soft and delicate fragrance.
A special moment to savour with chance. )

Chance  (Unpredictable by nature. Candid, sincere and joyful.
Go with the optimism of CHANCE. It is a surprising fragrance that is reassuringly authentic. A captivating one-to-one with chance.)


I tried them all and It was hard to decide on just one. I really love the Eau Tendre. I love the sweetness of it.  The bottles are beautiful, simple and elegant. I truly want them all in my collection.

img_4392-1img_4394-1

Thank you so much to CHANEL for the invitation. Thank you to all the lovely people and artists. It was a magical and fun filled evening. I’m truly grateful and I will always remember the wonderful and special moments shared that evening.

The packaging is really lovely. It is all plastic and very simple, lightweight and modern. I really love the texture of the pressed powder.  I swatched it and it feels very soft and silky. I’ll be writing up a first impressions blog post and review very soon.

The Autumn Trends for 2015 can easily be achieved from H&M’s new beauty line. The cosmetics line is full of inspiration and ideas to experiment with for this season.  A neutral look can be warmed up with sages, cinnamon, terracotta and chestnut colours.   Here is the Nudes palette followed by the pressed powder. Then there is a lovely nail polish that is pearly white and sparkly. Also, a lovely blush in the colour Apricot. The candy apple lipstick is beautiful! A strong lip is perfect for this season! But a statement can be made with glossy, high-shine textures for the lips too.  I can’t wait to try these on!
  Hello lovely Candy Apple! The design, shape and colour of this lipstick is beautiful! It’s also light weight and sleek.
  
  
 I’m truly impressed by the new products and I can’t wait to create a lovely look with them. I must say the creative team behind the design of the new Beauty products from H&M are truly beautiful!  I can’t wait to try these on!
