Tarte Baby It's Bold Outside Sets Review

Hi all! Before I begin my review today, please check out my last blog post to win some free makeup. Open to everyone! All you have to do is follow me on Twitter and tell me what you would like to see next on my blog. It's that simple :)

Back to our main topic today.. Tarte. I've been a great fan since I discovered their products about 2 years ago. Outside of North America I find that it is almost impossible to get their products, and if lucky enough, the products will cost a bomb!

Today I'm sharing a short review about the holiday sets that came out in Sephora. You'll be able to find this set in store and online.

Baby It's Bold Outside Makeup and Blush Set 

The first set is one that comes with 24 FULL SIZE Amazonian clay eyeshadows, 8 maracuja lipglosses, 1 Amazonian clay blush in Shimmering Rose, 1 brush, 1 tester size mascara and a small finishing powder.

Tarte Amazonian Clay Blush in Shimmering Rose

This set is amazing for $70! The eyeshadows are super pigmented as well as the blush. Their Amazonian clay line it most well known for the longevity of the products. A little goes a long way :)

At first I was concerned that the lip glosses will be really crappy as the packaging looks like the ones you can find for little girl makeup sets. But no! They are amazing glosses despite the slightly cheap plastic container it comes in. I'm super stoked to have so many colours to play with. 

The brush and the bag that it comes with are also very handy. Size is great, good for travelling and makeup gigs!

The blush set comes with 4 Amazonian Clay blushes (I LOVE THEM!) in colour Angelic, Fantastic, Magic, and Stellar. It's a great selection and fits most skin tones. Prior to this I only have Dollface, and this has made my blush collection so much better!!!

All in all, I highly recommend you to check it out in stores if Tarte is accessible to you. I'm sure you will fall in love with it!

Stay tune tomorrow for some Givenchy makeup review.

Givenchy Fall-Winter Makeup Collection & Fan di Fendi pour Homme Launch

I was fortunate enough to be invited to the Givenchy Fall-Winter Makeup Collection & Fan di Fendi pour Homme Perfume launch last week at Bloor St. Sephora.

It was an amazing experience with all the important staff working behind the scene jumping out to give us introduction and explanations to the products.

In the past I have only purchased one Fendi product, and often than not, I stop and stare at their amazing packaging.

Amazing makeup artist & beautiful model

 

 

Some breakfast prepared

 

 

As it was in the morning, the kind LVMH team prepared some lovely breakfast for us hungy bloggers before the event starts.

 

Makeup artist introducing us the new Givenchy Noir Couture Mascara

 

 

The mascara is absolutely AMAZING! This is my first time using a mascara from Givenchy and I cannot believe how well it performs! It volumises without clumping and also lengthen my short Asian lashes.

 

Check out my lashes!!!!

 

Fiona telling us more about the Givenchy Dahlia Perfume

 

 

I was given the Dahlia Eau de Toilette and I love it! It has a slight peachy scent without the over powering sweetness that a lot of perfume has.

 

Fan di Fendi pour Homme perfume

 

 

Since a friend of mine couldn't make it, Yoshi came along with me. Lucky for him, they were also introducing the new Fan di Fendi perfume for men. It's really refreshing but at the same time it also has the autumn musky scent. If you are thinking to get your men a new perfume the next time, try giving this a go!

 

Some goodies we got!

 

Here are the goodies we received from the event. I've tried some of them and very excited to share with you all about it so please stay tune!

 

 

Have a great week and it will be FRIDAYYYY tmr :D Yipee!











 

 

Tarte Maracuja C-Brightener Eye Treatment Review & LOTM

Tarte Maracuja C-brightener Eye Treatment

So I think I've found the perfect eye cream! Tarte Maracuja C-Brightener Eye Treatment is my secret to  fine lines!

I received this premium tester when I did my last Tarte purchase from QVC. I am so grateful because I have not been able to find an eye cream that does not sting my eyes and make them all sticky when I wake up in the morning!

My husband also used this eye cream when he had an eye infection. He rubbed the skin around his eyes too much and became extremely puffy and wrinkly, I suggested to him to use my eye cream and it caused no extra irritation to his already irritated eyes!!! Moreover it helps to soothes the skin and reduced inflammation.

This product doesn't claim to do much, but all your skin really needs is to be moisturised. Moisturised skin can prevent pre-mature fine lines and ease your makeup application!

Content

Pros:

• Non oily/greasy
• Does not cause irritation
• Very moisturising

Cons:

• Only available in QVC or Sephora (will be launched with the Fall Collection)

LOTM (Look of the Month)

To end this post, I'm sharing a look that I have been wearing VERY frequently this month. It's quick, easy, and long lasting!

Close up

See you!!

Sephora Haul

Hi all! I hope everyone had a great weekend! Yoshi and I were lucky enough to be able to visit our families and went star gazing during the weekend. Unfortunately the weather in Toronto and surroundings are not so great.. so we only had about 30 mins of meteor shower watch until the clouds covered the sky again.

I was feeling a little bit discourage today and decided to head to Sephora to check out if there are any new products that interest me! Please click on the video for my haul! I'm including some swatches here for some of the products.
