Happy New Year!

Slightly early but, it’s been fairly silent over here on the blog since Christmas..but that’s expected. Surprising that only a week has passed since Christmas but it feels like an eternity! Anyway, things will pick up again in the next week, don’t you worry, so until then…HAPPY NEW YEAR!! Thank you for sticking around with me for the past half year or so, and here’s to hoping you all stick around for another half year or more! Expect great things and growth in 2016! 🙂

Stay safe and have fun, friends!

Miss Universe 2015…or naw?

If you’ve been alive within the last day or so, you have PROBABLY heard about what happened during the Miss Universe pageant crowning. If not, watch below:

Essence Cosmetics Haul + First Impressions

So I got a few things sent to me by Essence and I thought I’d do a little haul out of it. Essence cosmetics are VERY affordable and great for those that want to get into makeup, yet don’t want to spend too much money on quality products.

Random Ramblings: Update #6 – Identity Crisis?

Update #5 can be read huuuurr. 

Who am I and what is this blog? Get ready to get lost in my thoughts:

If you’ve read one of my recent posts about my career aspirations, you can tell that I’ve wanted to be A LOT of things. And to this day, I STILL want to be a few of those things. Lately, I’ve been binge-watching Youtube videos (non-beauty related videos), my excuse for this binge-watching is that I want to make sure I watch everything and get caught up BEFORE I’m in med school 😛 But this binge-watching has started to build up this passion inside of me that has always been there, it’s like a nagging passion that requires some sort of attention. It made me realize

Product Review: Quo by Orly Color Amp’d Nail Polish

Last week I posted a NOTD featuring the colour Fashion Forward, a Quo by Orly nail polish from the Color Amp’d line. I was really curious about this line as it is a seemingly new release in Shoppers Drug Mart in Canada.

Above is what the display looked like, $9 for the individual polishes ($11, regular price). They have a decent variety of colours that come in glitter, creme, neon, and holo-metallic finishes. I quite like the packaging, I’m not going to lie.

I wanna be in movies’ – accurate.

Since I’m at that point in my life where my future career path is well on the way of being paved out, I thought I’d reminisce all the occupations that have crossed my mind. In my 22 years of being alive, I’ve considered a wide spectrum of potential occupations, some more realistic than others. So here is the list, in no particular order.

NOTD: Quo by Orly Color Amp’d Fashion Forward

I have been doing SO well with my nail polish low-buy, and it has been way easier than I had anticipated! I guess the main reason that I’ve been refraining is because of my dilemma of not being able to bring even close to a quarter of my collection with me to Australia…the struggle.
