When I first got pregnant, a staggering amount of people asked me if I planned to breastfeed. I always answered the same way: “I plan on trying”. I’d also planned on pumping so that my hubby could get the bonding that comes with feeding time by giving Everly a bottle. Worried about…

It’s a weird thing having a baby; One day you wake up and a few months have gone by. During that time, some days seem to go on for weeks, and some weeks seem to go on for months. All the same, I want time to slow down – it…
I thought it would be a neat idea to do an entire face of first impression products, and quickly realized how MANY products that ended up being when I went to try and photograph them all! Turns out I wear a decent amount of makeup every day, and I’m totally #sorrynotsorry…
When I found out I was pregnant, I instantly went into the first time mom panic stage where I needed to know all the things I should have ready when baby came home. Even though I had 8+ months to prep, I needed to get my list going asap (I…
By now you all know the deal; I’m spotlighting my favourites from 2017 (I realize its almost March at time of post, but gimme a break, I just had a baby!). I named my 5 favourite primers, foundations and bronzers and now I’m moving on to one of my favourite…
Up until a couple years back, CoverFx was solely known for their base products. Then they blew the market away with the Custom Enhancer Drops (read my review here). Well now they’re back at it, amping up the glow with two new products: Glitter Drops and Shimmer Veils. If you’re like me,…
If you read my labour and delivery story, you’ll know that little Everly’s entrance into the world wasn’t exactly textbook, nor easy. After going 2 full weeks late, 3 days of failed induction (ouchie, I’m still cringing about this) and ultimately a C Section that I had about 3 hours…
Last week it was all about my top 5 favourite foundations of 2017. Today, it’s all about popping those cheekbones and slimming that jaw with bronzers and contours. Bronzer is something I’m extremely picky about. The right contouring shade takes me from looking like a potato to having actual cheekbones. I…
Given that it’s the weekend at the time this post goes live, it seems only fitting to review the new Tarte Hamptons Weekender Palette! I love these little palettes; The name ‘Weekender’ really fits the concept of having blush bronzer and highlight all in one palm-sized compact! Of course, they really…
I’ve been on the full coverage foundation train for a while now, and I fully admit that I’ve been sticking to luxury brands for the most part. The thing about the drugstore is that I rarely can find a match that isn’t too pink. Even more so, I find anything claiming…
You guys, I am not even going to lie, before this collection, I had no idea who Kristen Leanne was. I know, I know, I am the worst. Then I was invited to a launch event here in Vancouver where Kristen was attending and knew I needed to get my…
One of the first things I wanted to sort out when I was pregnant is where baby Everly was going to sleep. I obviously have a nursery for her, but for the first few months, it is advised to have baby in the same room*. I knew as a first-time…
You thought I was done with the giveaways, right? Never! I recently got the chance to go to an Urban Decay event attended by Kristen Leanne to promote the collaborative collection between the brand and Youtuber. We were lucky enough to be sent home with the whole collection and so…
Last week it was all about my top 5 favourite foundation primers of 2017. Today, it’s all about that base people! One of the products I love to try the most is foundation; It’s transformative and confidence building if needed, and gives me the perfect canvas for getting creative with…
While I’ve been on the luxury mascara bandwagon for some time now, I do still love to try out drugstore mascaras occasionally. There is something to be said about only spending a tenner on something that needs to be tossed out ever 2-3 months! When I saw the new Maybelline Total…
