Hello September! Paint Party Friday!

banner bestdayblogger

It’s been a long summer and I had so much fun with my girls. We went to so many places around Toronto and they loved it. We went to the Art Gallery of Ontario, The Museum, the Science Centre and the CNE. We also saw two movies this summer. We saw Despicable Me 3 and the Emoji Movie. We had a lovely lunch date with my cousin and God Mother to my eldest daughter. Anna took us to see the emoji movie and to an amazing lunch at Swiss Chalet. Anna probably won’t read this but I want to thank her so much because she always makes time for us and takes us out around this time every year.  She is truly incredible and has a big heart. We love her so much. If you’re reading this Anna, I love you and thank you!

The girls and I had fun and they are ready to go back to school. They are looking forward to it and I’m very happy for them.  I’m not ready for school lunches though. It is such a huge challenge to make school lunches. But thank goodness for Pinterest.

I would like to say thank you to Five Star Canada for the pencil case. I won it on instagram @bestdayblogger.

My daughter loves it and it’s perfect for back to school.

Processed with VSCO with a5 preset

Speaking of back to school, I bought the girls backpacks, lunch bags and containers for their snacks and food. I also bought water bottles, binders, pencil cases, markers and pens. I think that covers it for school supplies. I still haven’t bought Fall clothing. They have fall jackets thank goodness and hopefully their winter boots will still fit this year. It’s so crazy how they grow out of their shoes and clothing every year.

Speaking of back to school how cute are these QUO Beauty Kits? I wish I had these when I was in high school or university. They are so cute and I love how colourful they are. These are available at Shoppers Drug Mart. This is not an ad. I kindly received these as samples and I love them! Super cute for back to school.

QUO COSMETICS NEW IN BEAUTY 2017

bestdayblogger-banner-blog

Quo Cosmetics has new and beautiful makeup available at Shoppers Drug Mart and I’m overjoyed that I received lovely samples to review. I’ll be sharing with you the Quo Nourish & Primer Hydrating Primer, QuoMakeup Setting Spray, Quo Concealer Palette and the Quo Matte Bronzer Duo28

Starting with the amazing Quo Nourish & Prime Hydrating Primer. This costs $24.00 dollars and it has 28ml of product. It feels so good on the skin and indeed it hydrates and absorbs quickly. You can wear this alone or under makeup. It really hydrates the skin, it is light, non scented and not greasy. Really makes my skin feel soft.

If you are looking to conceal and cover imperfections and dark circles the Quo Concealer Palette is incredible! Thick in consistency, it applies smoothly and evenly over the skin. You don’t need much to cover up problem spots and it is perfect for under the eyes as well.

I really love this concealer palette and I like the fact that I can mix and blend.  When I use this under the eyes it is not heavy. Feels nice and light on the skin. This is the first time trying a thick formula. I thought it would be hard to work with, but I’m pleasantly surprised. It is amazing and covers my dark circles perfectly. It also covers my breakout spots and I also use this to highlight and contour my features. This palette is $19.00 and can be purchased at Shoppers Drugmart. I absolutely love this!


QUO BRONZER “GOLDEN GLOW” 10g

$19.00 Shoppers Drug Mart

I really love the Quo Bronzer Duo “Golden Glow”  because this really gives my skin a sun kissed look. I love how it feels on the skin. Definitely gives a beautiful glow and each pan is filled with 2 complimentary shades. I use them together and then I also use the middle shade to highlight. I apply this on my cheeks and T-Zone. Really beautiful warmth and glow to the face.

To complete a makeup look I always use a finishing spray. This helps keep the makeup on longer. Quo Cosmetics has a lovely setting pray for $19.00 and it is weightless fine-mist setting spray which absorbs quickly and has a matte finish. It prevents fading and transferring of makeup. It is ideal for all skin types. I use this by closing my eyes and spray from 8-10 inches away from the face. A truly wonderful spray that works!

Totally recommend!

It’s the hap-happiest season of all
There’ll be parties for hosting
Marshmallows for toasting
And caroling out in the snow
There’ll be scary ghost stories
And tales of the glories of
Christmases long, long ago
It’s the most wonderful time of the year
There’ll be much mistltoeing
And hearts will be glowing
When love ones are near
It’s the most wonderful time of the year….
