<div style="text-align: center;">
I feel like 2016 was a tough year on us all. I know personally, it was probably one of the hardest years of my life. </div>
The US and Britain both made huge changes that will affect the rest of the world, there were mass shootings and continuing conflicts in Syria, many beloved celebrities passed as well as a gorilla the world still seems to be mourning. It seems hatred and vitriol have become common in our everyday discourse and the media promotes stories that fill us with anxiety and pessimism. While I will be happy to see 2016 end, I want to go out on a good note by remembering all the wonderful and exciting things that happened this year, both personally and publicly.<br />
<br />
<h3>
<b>Thesis!</b></h3>
I finished my Sociology Honours thesis earlier this year. A huge accomplishment and something I'm really proud of.<br />
<br />
<h3>
<b>Gilmore Girls!</b></h3>
One of the best TV show ever returned this year with 4 new episodes. We got to spend 360 more minutes in Stars Hollow and regardless of what you thought of those <i>final four words</i>, we should be thankful for being allowed back into the Gilmore's universe.<br />
<br />
<h3>
<b>Graduations!</b></h3>
My bestie graduated and became a Registered Massage Therapist and finally got to start her career and I couldn't be more proud of her! I was also supposed to be finished my undergrad degree this December, but due to a situation out of my control, I'll now finish in early January instead. Close enough though right.<br />
<br />
<h3>
<b>More Harry Potter! So Much More!</b></h3>
I grew up with Harry Potter. From the time I was 6, those books have been in my life. I was one of those obsessed kids dressing up for the movies and going to midnight releases. Well 2016 brought us both the release of the Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, and Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. What more could a Potter fan want!<br />
<h3>
<b><br /></b><b>First Real Job!</b></h3>
I got my first job related to my field of study this year and it helped open up doors for my future, my grad program, as well as gave me lots of experience and confidence that this is what I want to do with my life.<br />
<br />
<h3>
<b>New Music!</b></h3>
My favourite artist George Watsky released a new album this summer which I have been listening to non-stop ever since. X infinity is really great and I would suggest everyone go give it a <a href="https://soundcloud.com/gwatsky/sets/x-infinity">listen</a>. Also Beyoncé released her album Lemonade.<br />
<br />
<h3>
<b>John frickin Scott!</b></h3>
I expect this one will fly past a lot of you but if you watch the NHL (hockey) you'll have heard about John Scott and the All-Star Game controversy that started off our crazy 2016. John Scott has been one of my favourite players since he was a Chicago Blackhawk in 2010. Well for me, seeing John Scott lifted up by his teammates after being named the game's MVP was one of the highlights of my year. His story is one that brings me so much joy, I would encourage everyone to go give it a <a href="http://www.theplayerstribune.com/john-scott-retirement/">read</a>. He also has a new memoir out and it's on my wish list.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
These have been some of the highlights of my year. It felt really nice to think about the positives that came out of this year. I highly suggest everyone take a few minutes to think of the good 2016 has brought them.</div>

Choosing only 3 lipsticks was really hard. I really emphasized the formula but these are also my favourite shades from each specific lipstick line. You'll notice I clearly lean towards more rosy colours.</div>

I always get compliments whenever I wear this lipstick. I really believe these are the best matte lipsticks at the drugstore and are good enough to rival any high-end matte lipstick. They are super comfortable, opaque and creamy. However, due to their creaminess they don't last as long as other matte lipsticks.<br />

<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This is my favourite everyday lipstick. I'd describe it as halfway between a creamy lipstick and a lip balm. It feels really nourishing on the lips but it takes a few swipes to build up the colour. It's so comfortable, it doesn't feel like you're wearing anything on your lips. It's also drugstore so you know the price tag is reasonable. Plus they smell so yummy!</div>

<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Last but certainly not least. I know I've raved about the formula of these a lot recently but it's really that good. It is super opaque with just one swipe, it's super long lasting and very comfortable. I don't have a bad thing to say about it except for the steep price tag, however I think it's worth the money.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Monthly Favourites Time! It's been a while since I did a monthly favourites post. November was a very strange month for me as I didn't have school (long story- not by choice), so I didn't wear a lot of makeup. However the Sephora VIB sale allowed me to get some new products.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b>Urban Decay Naked Skin Weightless Ultra Definition Foundation</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I needed a new foundation and the lovely woman at Sephora helped me pick this one out (finding a foundation that comes in my snowy-white shade is not easy so extra points to UD). I love how it doesn't feel like you're wearing foundation but it's still buildable enough to give you good coverage. It also doesn't stick to my dry patches and allows my skin to still look natural which is literally all I'm looking for in a foundation. The downside is it smells, quite literally, like paint. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b>Ulta3 nail colour in Sizzling Red</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This is a nail polish I got in my Ipsy bag. It's super opaque with only one coat and surprisingly long lasting. I've been wearing it a bunch this month. It looks especially festive with a glittery gold top coat.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b>Marc Jacobs Lipstick in Slow Burn</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This a a perfect everyday lipstick for me. The shade looks really natural and the formula is super comfortable and long lasting. I know I've talked a lot about Marc Jacobs lipsticks on my blog but it's got to be one of my favourite formulas.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b>NudeStix Concealer Pencil</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This is another product I received in an Ipsy bag. I really love this concealer pencil for covering up spots. It's thick and has high coverage which makes it perfect for concealing small problem areas.</div>

I really like the brushes from this brand so I was excited to see this in my bag. This is an extremely soft brush and it applies just a little bit of product at a time so I've been liking it to apply highlighter. This brush is travel size and retails for $16.<br />

I haven't been a fan of the other Skone products I've recieved in bags before but this brow pencil pleasantly surprised me. The shade is perfect with my dark brown hair and it comes with a brush on the other end which is convenient. I find the triangle shaped tip takes a little getting used to, but overall it's a good long lasting brow pencil. This is full size and retails for $18.<br />

I've never heard of this brand before and I'm usually not a fan of cream products but this highlighter is pretty good. On my pale skin, it works a little bit better as a blush topper as the peach is a little dark for my cheekbones. It gives a nice glow and the texture isn't sticky. This is a sample size but full size, it retails for $18.<br />

I always love getting high end brands in my Ipsy bags. I've actually used this mascara before and while I love the brush and how it makes my lashes look, I find it smudges on me so I'll probably give this one away. This travel size which retails for an astonishing $15.</div>

Another higher end product. I have very fine hair so hair oils are tricky for me but this one didn't make my hair too oily. It also didn't make too much of a difference so I'll need to use it a bit more to determine how I feel about it. This is a sample size but the full size retails for $16.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is probably the best value bag I've gotten. I've calculated it to have over $55 worth of product! </div>

Just in case it isn't obvious to anyone, I am NOT trying to brag about my makeup. I love to be nosy and look at other people's makeup collections so I thought I would share mine for all you other nosy people out there. I know I have a lot of makeup, I am lucky and have received much of it as gifts from family and friends. I also save up my money and mostly only spend it on makeup. I have attached links for the products I have reviewed in the past.<br />

The last time I showed my makeup storage was over a year ago and I've made quite a few changes to how I organize my makeup since then. If you want to take a trip down memory lane you can see how my makeup storage used to look <a href="http://makeup-by-meggy.blogspot.ca/2014/09/my-makeup-storage-and-organization.html#.WCzz4fkrLIU">here</a>.<br />
The point of this post is to share how I organize my makeup and maybe give some tips on how to store your makeup. I also made the brands/companies clickable so it's easier for you to shop the storage options for yourself. Come back next week for my updated makeup collection posts. </div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
I'll start with my vanity which I got from <a href="https://www.bedbathandbeyond.ca/store/product/charlotte-2-piece-vanity-set-with-power-strip-and-usb/3281011?Keyword=vanity">Bed, Bath and Beyond</a> (I think my exact model is discontinued but I found a similar one). <span style="text-align: center;">It has a tri-fold mirror and a fake marble counter top as well as a drawer and a cupboard for storage. I added the vanity lights on top.</span></div>

<span style="text-align: center;">I used a file organizer from <a href="http://www.staples.ca/en/Merangue-Metal-Mesh-Desk-Set-Combo-Black-4-Piece-Set/product_1463403_2-CA_1_20001">Staples</a> to display my eyeshadow palettes. Not only is this a good way to store them, I also am more inclined to use them because they're all in my line of sight.</span></div>

<span style="text-align: center;">I got the hexagon shaped rose gold dish from <a href="http://www.urbanoutfitters.com/ca/en/catalog/productdetail.jsp?id=37418274&category=A_DEC_JEWELRYBOX">Urban Outfitters</a> and I use it to store my everyday skincare (and my little rose gold bunny). I got the 3 drawer organizer from <a href="http://a.co/dHFcuMY">Amazon</a> and I use it to store my highlighters and cheek palettes (top), blushes (middle), bronzer and cream blush (bottom). I bought the vase, stones and flower from <a href="http://canada.michaels.com/on/demandware.store/Sites-MichaelsCanada-Site/en_CA/Product-Show?pid=10297072&cgid=809188371">Michael's</a>.</span></div>

My eyeliners are held in a purple flower pot that I filled with clear beads. I store (most) my lipsticks in this acrylic holder from the dollar store but you can also find them on <a href="http://a.co/0hhfyMu">Amazon</a>. Behind that I keep my larger blush palettes. My eyeshadow sticks and lip pencils are stored in this rose gold candle holder from <a href="https://www.anthropologie.com/shop/dappled-glass-votive-set?category=candles-candleholders&color=067">Anthropologie</a>. </div>

I converted this flower pot I found in a hardware store into a brush holder. I filled each side with clear beads so the brushes will stand up. I don't have a link for this one but it's really easy to convert any small flower pot. I especially like this one because it has a distressed vintage look and a way to separate my face and eye brushes.<br />

I wanted to do a really warm autumn eyeshadow look that incorporates lots of reds and oranges. This is what I came up with. This look can be done with any similar shadows.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I started with Sunset and Sunrise from the itCosmetics <a href="http://makeup-by-meggy.blogspot.ca/2014/09/it-cosmetics-naturally-pretty-palette.html#.WCfdkfkrLIU">Naturally Pretty </a>Palette. I took Sunrise, the matte brownish orange shade, and buffed that messily in my crease, almost to the brow bone. I then took Sunrise, the matte reddish shade, and took a more precise crease brush and applied that directly into the crease. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
All over the lid I used the shade <a href="http://makeup-by-meggy.blogspot.ca/2016/09/august-2016-ipsy-bag.html#.WCfdVPkrLIU">Spice Market</a>, a reddish cranberry from Nomad. I used Mac Fix+ to make the shadow more pigmented and bright. Using my finger I then pressed a gold shadow (I used one from Sonia Kashuk) right in the middle of the lid.</div>

I mixed Spice Market and the gold shadow and smudged that along my lower lashline. I finished up the look with Jordana Liquid Liner and Tarte Lights Camera Lashes Mascara.</div>

It's another Ipsy post today. I promise I have more exciting posts coming up but I wanted to make sure I got a chance to share what I got in my October Ipsy Bag. It was a good one this month.<br />
I'll start with the bag. It's Halloween themed as you can probably guess. There's lots of ghosts, magic potions and spell-books decorating the bag. The bag is also a metallic pink. However the zipper on the bag broke off after only a couple of uses which is sad because it was in the shape of a really cute ghost.<br />

I have to say I'm getting a little tired of receiving leave-in-conditioners in my bags. This one is fine but nothing too special. It's not replacing any of my multitude of other leave-in-conditioners. I got a sample size but this retails for $26.<br />

I actually really liked this lip scrub. It's really sweet and smells and tastes nice. It's a sugar scrub so it's good at exfoliating but there is also a lot of oil in it so your lips are left feeling really moisturized and smooth. It retails for $11.99.<br />

I've recieved a sample of their lipstick before and I really like the formula. It's very confortable and opaque. However the colour I received has purple/grey undertones which combined with my fair skin kind of makes me look dead. The other shades are great though. It retails for $18.<br />

I was most excited for this product. I had heard a lot about this brand but had never tried anything from it. I was impressed with this concealer. Since it's in pencil form I thought it would be less creamy than it is. It has good coverage and can be blended out quite easily. I would only use this to spot conceal as it's a bit thick for under the eyes. The full size retails for $28 and I'm a little confused if this is full size or not as the stick says it's 0.088oz but Sephora lists full size as 0.05oz so...?<br />

I love powders from theBalm, their Mary-Lou Manizer highlight is one of my favourites and their eyeshadow formula is great so I was excited about this blush and was not disappointed. It's a beautiful peachy-pink with gold shimmer. Thankfully a little goes a long way as this is a crazy small sample size. (The packaging is super cute though). Full size retails for $20.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
I've been a very bad blogger lately. I'm sorry I haven't had a new post up in a while but I have a bunch planned for the rest of the month so things should be getting back to normal soon. Because I didn't get a September or October Favourites up and it's now November, here is everything I have been loving this autumn. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjk7ewHfbqGoUOn0u-eG-Jkg5VfQedHkZvAlx6GoDmhCoDMvg7YqeJvoCYL_wSW-1J7ERxTi-ekLoJVqddahNl9WuMhcQpn5PgpTuKtR4U3jeKZ5ShLHjNKmii6Z6gNNWgK39yhsiN1Xkc9/s1600/DSC_0170.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjk7ewHfbqGoUOn0u-eG-Jkg5VfQedHkZvAlx6GoDmhCoDMvg7YqeJvoCYL_wSW-1J7ERxTi-ekLoJVqddahNl9WuMhcQpn5PgpTuKtR4U3jeKZ5ShLHjNKmii6Z6gNNWgK39yhsiN1Xkc9/s400/DSC_0170.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<u><b>Nail Polishes</b></u><br />
<b>Sephora Formula X- Ignite</b><br />
I finally got into the autumnal spirit with this dark red shade. I've been very vocal about my love for the Formula X polishes. They're definitely the longest lasting that I've tried.<br />
<b>Ciate London- Spinning Tea Cup</b><br />
I tried to hold onto summer with this shade. It's a beautiful lilac purple, one of my personal favourite colours. The formula of Ciate nail pots are also great as they're opaque and long lasting.<br />
<b>Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat</b><br />
I started using this top coat and it is amazing. It makes my polish last for weeks and keeps my nails super shiny. The one major downside is it smells much stronger than most other nail polishes I own.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<u><b>Beauty</b></u><br />
<b>it Haircare 12-in-One Amazing Leave in Treatment</b><br />
This is a product I received in a recent <a href="http://makeup-by-meggy.blogspot.ca/2016/09/august-2016-ipsy-bag.html#.WCJd5vkrLIU">Ipsy bag </a>that has made a big different to my hair routine. It has so many benefits (12 actually), including heat protection. I just apply a little to my wet hair before drying and it leaves my hair super shiny and soft. Plus it smells nice and fresh.<br />
<b>Maybelline Dream Wonder Powder</b><br />
I'm sure this powder has been in a favourites before at one point. I recently repurchased this powder and I absolutely love it. It's creamy and has high coverage but doesn't look too cakey on my skin.<br />
<b>Marc Jacobs Lip Creme in Kiss Kiss Bang Bang</b><br />
This mini lipstick came in the Sephora Birthday gift this year and I just can't stop wearing it. This has quickly become my favourite lipstick formulas. It's so comfortable (I mean forget you're wearing it comfortable), it is really creamy, insanely opaque with just one swipe and it's super long lasting. Literally the perfect lipstick. The colour is a really nice dusty rose too.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<b>Jordana FabuLiner</b><br />
I know for sure that this eyeliner has been in a previous favourites because it's one of my all time favourites. In my opinion it's one of the best drugstore eyeliners and it's super affordable (like $3). It has a felt tip which I find easy to use, and the biggest plus for me, it has a matte finish.<br />
<br />
<u><b>Non-Beauty Favourites</b></u><br />
<b>Heartland</b><br />
This fall I ended up spending some time riding horses at a ranch near my lake. Because of this I started watching Heartland on Netflix and quickly became hooked. It's a Canadian TV show that centres on a horse ranch in Alberta. Heartland is currently in it's 10th season which gave me confidence that it was worth watching. There aren't that many sweet family drama's on TV anymore so it's really nice if you're looking for a relaxing Netflix binge. For Canadians, I think it's nice to support CBC and Canadian television because there's really not that many options and for everyone else, this is just a really sweet and addictive family show. Plus the animals are cute!<br />

I have another Ipsy bag post today to get us caught up. I really like the design on this bag. It's metallic and the design on the front is really cute with the women spelling out Ipsy.<br />
So here's what I got in my September Bag.<br />
<br />
<b>itCosmetics Superhero Mascara</b><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I love itCosmetics as a brand but I've never tried their mascaras before so I'm really looking forward to using this. I have so many mascaras going right now so I'm going to wait a while before I open this one. It is a fairly small sample. The full size retails for $24.<br />
<br />
<b>Ulta3 Nail Colour in Sizzling Red</b><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

This is a vibrant bright red nail polish from a brand I've never heard of before. As with most nail polishes in Ipsy bags this is full size. It retails for $2.30<br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>eyeko London Eye Do Liquid Eyeliner</b><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I'm all about black liquid liner so this is exciting for me. I have a couple liquid liners going at the moment so I'll probably wait a while to use this. In a black liquid liner I'm looking for it to be very pigmented, matte and easy to apply so we'll see how this one goes. This is a decent sized sample at just over half of the regular size. It retails for $20.<br />
<br />
<b>eva-nyc Forget Me Knot Dry Conditioner</b><br />

I've loved this brand ever since I got a dry shampoo from them in a previous Ipsy bag. I'm really looking forward to trying this dry conditioner as detangling products are always really important to my hair care routine. This is a sample size that would be great for travel. Full size retails for $14.<br />
<br />

Unfortunately I already know that I do not like this product after trying it on the back of my hand. While I'm generally not a fan of cream blushes there are a few types of cream blushes I enjoy. However, this one doesn't dry to a power and instead remains fairly sticky. Most annoyingly it has a VERY strong fruit punch scent which doesn't seem to fade with time. I can't stand having scented products on my face so this one is not for me. However if these aren't drawbacks for you, the colour is very pretty. Plus the brand is vegan which is great. This product is FULL SIZE and retails for <u>$24</u>.<br />

It's Back!!! That's right I've resubscribed to Ipsy so you can look forward to another year of Ipsy Bag Reviews and to start us off, I've got <b>TWO </b>Ipsy bag posts this week. Due to the Canada Post strike fiasco, I got my August and September Ipsy bags at the same time so check back here on Thursday to see what I got in my September bag<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you want to see a rundown of what I got last time I was an Ipsy subscriber you can check out <a href="http://makeup-by-meggy.blogspot.ca/2015/08/my-year-with-ipsy-review.html">My Year with Ispy</a> post. </div>
First off, the bag is really cute this month. It's a little smaller than the bags I was getting last year but it feels well made.<br />
Here's what I got in my August Bag.<br />
<br />
<b>Beauté Basics 3 Tone Bronzer</b><br />

This is a very tiny, very shimmery bronzer. It is also fairly pigmented but blendable. It's going to give you a nice bronze glow. I swatched the individual shades and the top swatch is all three combined.</div>

This reddish cranberry shade is absolutely beautiful and perfect for this time of year. The shadow is quite pigmented but blendable. Downside is this is a fairly tiny sample. This might be my favourite product from this month's bag.</div>

I really like Ciaté nail polishes so I was super excited to receive this full size polish in my bag. This lilac colour is also one of my all time favourite colours so I'm super excited about this.<br />

I haven't tried this yet but I love hair treatments so I'm really excited. It's also a decent size at 100ml. It claims to do so many things so it will be interesting to see how this works.<br />

I haven't talked much about hair care on my blog before. That's mostly because I'm not very diligent with my hair care routine. I'll often choose to spend my time getting ready doing my makeup or picking a cute outfit and I'll forgo styling my hair, instead leaving it natural. However there are a few hair products that I swear by and I thought I would share.<br />
<br />
I'll start with my hair type. I have medium length, fine, brown hair. I've never coloured it and I rarely use heat (my fine hair air dries quite quickly). My hair varies between straight and wavy whenever it pleases despite what I have planned for it.<br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>Shampoo and Conditioner</b><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiM9qFGAf8GuIaloshyphenhyphenz2rXbtanpffcADlfQRsCdRYHyxL29xrmcIzmZmWB94ZyeVzazVHnIp1jBhU7UQGhuFY6ybof07CYquFOjarXNC3ZX8h8knLutg_UejBGlDGe0bs4SATh81U_kz-O/s1600/DSC_0963.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiM9qFGAf8GuIaloshyphenhyphenz2rXbtanpffcADlfQRsCdRYHyxL29xrmcIzmZmWB94ZyeVzazVHnIp1jBhU7UQGhuFY6ybof07CYquFOjarXNC3ZX8h8knLutg_UejBGlDGe0bs4SATh81U_kz-O/s400/DSC_0963.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
I've just started using the <i>Dove Advanced Hair Series- quench Absolute for dry, wavy, curly hair</i>. I've been loving it. It makes my hair really shiny and soft. The shampoo lathers up nicely which I always enjoy and the conditioner isn't too thick so it doesn't weigh my fine hair down. Strangely my hair dries straighter when I use this shampoo compared to other shampoos not specifically for wavy hair.<br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>Leave-in Conditioner</b><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0p0rJNNBwCH2xhkYloGlYJ7ulgE-JqQFLVrVL8zkXrEm_1oiHnlV5NmCoycLqjubKXU5t4PNL5mywkhN0KvtZdeGhkPpVSsUC3S2-wCpDoqtPtsTZE_BJe-lrpe3NJit01wY1wJmsobjA/s1600/DSC_0972.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0p0rJNNBwCH2xhkYloGlYJ7ulgE-JqQFLVrVL8zkXrEm_1oiHnlV5NmCoycLqjubKXU5t4PNL5mywkhN0KvtZdeGhkPpVSsUC3S2-wCpDoqtPtsTZE_BJe-lrpe3NJit01wY1wJmsobjA/s400/DSC_0972.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
I have been using this <i>Sebastian Professional Laminates Detanging Milk</i> for years now. I just spray it through my wet hair and brush it through. It smells really nice and it leaves my hair super soft and shiny and most importantly it helps me get a brush through my fine, tangly hair.<br />
<br />
<b>Heat Protector </b><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhS5dDkHhDPSDLJ_A_sijEZwO2EDbDP4Jhkny6zjGYuZv9pTKu046j6mqgI2EXMHBILkvAWNQmFiazJ94FzEBE18LMVyAgOG-51VzgeJdN9XQ76ogrPwvAEbL8UDOiBh7h_UUYcHOBbJaj/s1600/DSC_0978.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhS5dDkHhDPSDLJ_A_sijEZwO2EDbDP4Jhkny6zjGYuZv9pTKu046j6mqgI2EXMHBILkvAWNQmFiazJ94FzEBE18LMVyAgOG-51VzgeJdN9XQ76ogrPwvAEbL8UDOiBh7h_UUYcHOBbJaj/s400/DSC_0978.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
On the rare occasion that I blow dry or curl my hair, I'll use the <i>TRESemmé Thermal Creations Heat Tamer Spray</i> to protect my hair. It smells nice, it comes out in a fine mist and it leaves my hair shiny and smooth all while keeping my hair from being damaged.<br />
<br />
<b>Hair Brush</b><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikgo8_MotjoA67IxWfyMqjvqCN7yuxpsftWZ4-U_kyTrA2-fuMfxEykVFcML7-Ki4lufBBhbE1v0b2QunxodiKCXrO0G5NwwxdqeCh7SZDA7QJi63_pW4e20Ntj_SdQTOIsb3zxpbgbv5m/s1600/DSC_1005.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikgo8_MotjoA67IxWfyMqjvqCN7yuxpsftWZ4-U_kyTrA2-fuMfxEykVFcML7-Ki4lufBBhbE1v0b2QunxodiKCXrO0G5NwwxdqeCh7SZDA7QJi63_pW4e20Ntj_SdQTOIsb3zxpbgbv5m/s400/DSC_1005.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
I have very tangly hair due to it being so fine. Brushing my hair was always a chore I hated because it usually hurt and took a long time. Everything has changed since I got the Tangle Teezer. It gets out tangles and knots in seconds. It's seriously magical and I highly recommend it to everyone.<br />
<br />
<b>Dry Shampoo</b><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8b-GWNGWBh1upjWzSjBvgYS8fS30NhUtl_wv-d75lICzKPXQ1OR69f2PmgrE_g7UHIUgZA27KLw27uqt7-vzu8y8UBl2-t0uSBA04BTCvMq40_wrpzbNOnyS4vnzmMWxU70_bsnDeko2c/s1600/DSC_0987.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8b-GWNGWBh1upjWzSjBvgYS8fS30NhUtl_wv-d75lICzKPXQ1OR69f2PmgrE_g7UHIUgZA27KLw27uqt7-vzu8y8UBl2-t0uSBA04BTCvMq40_wrpzbNOnyS4vnzmMWxU70_bsnDeko2c/s400/DSC_0987.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
I wash my hair every other day so for second day hair, I use <i>Dove Invigorating Dry Shampoo</i> to make my hair look less oily. The smell isn't too over powering and as long as you're careful with the distance you're spraying from, you won't end up with white in your hair. It also provides lots of volume.<br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>Texturizing Spray</b><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNvoG0j93JhmvYHZngPkQRHOx72QE6XgekaYQpKQ3pgZiaiGlvbnSiCzsAhhOxgs3W6JdQO1Te4aFGGoXAWk4Kf1tO1PORgwi9ZD-97TWDEZccCcjlQA_7V5SBNQlxTQsuKwV7XEIoHu02/s1600/DSC_0990.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNvoG0j93JhmvYHZngPkQRHOx72QE6XgekaYQpKQ3pgZiaiGlvbnSiCzsAhhOxgs3W6JdQO1Te4aFGGoXAWk4Kf1tO1PORgwi9ZD-97TWDEZccCcjlQA_7V5SBNQlxTQsuKwV7XEIoHu02/s320/DSC_0990.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
This is an expensive little product so for special occasions I'll use a some of this <i>Orbe Dry Texturizing Spray</i>. It gives a crazy amount of volume and texture. It's amazing!<br />
<br />
<b>Hairspray</b><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

As I rarely curl my hair, I don't often use hairspray but I thought I should include it anyway because finding a hairspray I actually like has been a hard task. I use the <i>TRESemmé Perfectly (un)Done Waves Ultra Brushable Hold Hairspray. </i>I hate hairsprays that make my hair feel hard and crunchy so this one is ideal for me. The hold isn't anything too special but it leaves my hair feeling naturally movable.<br />

Doing a post like this has been on my list for a while and now it's a really popular youtube tag. I have always had an interest in makeup but like a lot of young girls, I didn't have the budget or the skills to ensure my makeup looked good.<br />
In high school I mostly wore eyeshadow. I only wore concealer under my eyes and rarely ever wore foundation. I hated lip gloss and lipstick and I didn't start doing my brows until a few years ago. I didn't understand bronzer, had never heard of highlighter and thought my cheeks were naturally too rosy to wear blush. Below, I recreated my three most worn makeup looks from High School. I tried to copy the technique (or lack of technique) that I used to apply my makeup.<br />

<i>Annabelle Eyeshadow Duo in Kir Royal and Black Revlon Eyeliner</i><br />
It was my first year in high school and I wanted to look super grown up so what did I do? That's right, I went heavy on the black liner. I would actually line my lower lashes (not the waterline), then use makeup remover to remove it leaving only a very thin line right at my lashes.<br />

<i>Claire's Shimmer Eyeshadow Palette with Lancome Eyeliner in Black Coffee</i><br />
I got super into the shimmers in the middle of high school but I tamed it down with the brown liner. I didn't know how to blend and I used a very shimmery, white highlight on my brow bone. These eyeshadow came in a rainbow palette with 48 shadows. I'm just thankful I went for the neutral shades and not the bright blues.<br />

I know the saying "don't judge a book by its cover" but I can't help but judge a product by it's packaging. Really nice packaging can make a lackluster product seem much better than it is, conversely, a great product with tacky packaging can seem kinda lame.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
While the most important thing about a product is obviously the formula, the product's packaging is also important. Often times high end products are more expensive in a large part due to very luxurious packaging, but the packaging on inexpensive products can be just as good. Of course this post wouldn't be complete without mentioning the worst packaging too. </div>

Charlotte Tilbury is my favourite packaging of all time. It's rose gold and the attention to detail is very impressive. It also feels extremely luxurious and well made. There is quite a bit of weight to it and it doesn't feel like plastic (although I think it probably is). Just looking at it makes me happy.</div>

Specifically the packaging on their eyeshadows is beautiful. These are expensive little products at $22 each and I'm pretty sure that's partly due to the ornate packaging.The lid is partially clear so you can see the shadow, but the rest of the lid is very detailed. The packaging is also a dark metallic, almost steel like in colour. I am very much a fan.<br />
<br />

Hourglass is another luxury brand with beautiful packaging. The colour and unique shape is what I like the best about this packaging. It does feel a little bit more light and plastic than other luxury brands.<br />

This is a well named brand because their packaging is quite sleek. It's very thin and black but feels very sturdy and well made. Plus there is a quality mirror included in the palettes.<br />

Now the actual packaging on this one is very minimalist. It's just a clear lid with a gold base but the flower imprint on the product is what makes this so special to me. I think this is such a unique and beautiful way to package your product. I just love it.<br />

Now to be fair this was a limited edition Christmas release so I'm not going to be too hard on them but this packaging is so clunky and hard to store. Plus I'm not a huge fan of looking at the Christmas theme in August. However I did get 5 blushes, a bronzer and a highlight for the price of one regular sized blush, so I can live with the terrible packaging. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As you can tell I favour packaging that looks very sleek and pretty. There are other brands that have really cute and fun packaging (i.e. Too Faced, Benefit, theBalm) that didn't make my cut.</div>

I've picked up a few beauty items this Summer and I thought I would share them all with you in a haul post. These are items I got between June and August including some Birthday presents. Since I've been using some of these products for a while. I have some mini reviews to go along each product.<br />
<br />
<b>Hourglass Ambient Lighting Palette</b><br />
I'll start with my favourite product I got this summer. This was a birthday gift from my parents and I have been wearing it every day since. It's seriously makeup changing.<br />

The first powder, Dim Light, is perfect for setting your makeup all over the face because it isn't shimmery but it gives your face the most natural glow while minimizing pores. The middle shade, Incandescent Light, is actually my least favorite of the three. It has tiny flecks of micro-glitter which makes it a nice highlighter. The final shade, Radiant Light, I have been loving using as a bronzer topper. I wear it around the perimeter of my face on top of a matte bronzer and it makes it look like I have a nice natural tan.

This is a great lip liner from a Canadian brand I don't give enough love to. This liner is self-sharpening which is totally amazing as you can always be assured you'll get a sharp precise line. This colour Vintage, is also great for going under so many of my darker pink lipsticks.<br />

<b>Ardell Demi Wispies</b><br />
After hearing so many bloggers talk about these lashes I just had to try them for myself. Applying lashes is definitely still a weakness of mine but I like how they look. Dramatic, but not too dramatic. You can see me wearing them <a href="http://makeup-by-meggy.blogspot.ca/2016/06/dramatic-eyes.html#.V83ZkpgrLIU">here</a>.<br />

I picked up this inexpensive lip colour this summer. It is a really lovely, pigmented colour. The formula is super wet and since it's in a squeeze tube with no real good applicator, I would strongly suggest applying this with a lip brush (i.e. <i>paint </i>the colour on). It stays fairly wet and doesn't dry down very much which makes it prone to smudging so I wouldn't suggest eating with it on.<br />

For this years Beauty Insider birthday gift from Sephora you got a choice of this Marc Jacobs duo or a Fresh Skincare set. I obviously went for the makeup and I've quickly become obsessed with this lipstick. It is one of the most comfortable lipsticks I've ever worn. It's not matte so it has a bit of a slip but it's super long-lasting, even through eating. Plus this shade, 216 <i>Kiss Kiss Bang Bang</i> is gorgeous.<br />
The liner is also super creamy and opaque, and it is the most long lasting pencil eye liner I've tried.<br />
<br />
<b>Maybelline Eyestudio Gel Liner in Eggplant</b><br />
I've talked about my love for the Maybelline Gel Liners before so I'll keep this brief. The colour is very nice. It has a bit of a shimmer but it's a dark purple so it's more natural looking than you'd think.<br />

Last summer I did a What's in My Bag which you can find <a href="http://makeup-by-meggy.blogspot.ca/2015/09/whats-in-my-bag.html">here</a>, but I got a new handbag for my birthday and so I thought it time for a new <i>What's in My Bag</i> post.

I'm totally in love with my new bag and not just because of it's rose gold hardware. It's really well made and cruelty free so I don't have to feel guilty while wearing it. It's large enough to fit everything I would want to carry but not so big that it's a hassle to carry around. I like wearing it cross-body but it also has a sturdy top handle.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
I had to take some time off this summer due to work and travelling but things should be getting back to my normal Monday/Wednesday posts now. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This summer I've had quite a few favourites because I started a new professional job. I've been doing my makeup everyday unlike during school when I wear quite minimal makeup. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<b>Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum- </b>I loved wearing this foundation all summer, especially for work. It has light coverage and is semi-matte which was nice for the summer months when it's hot outside and it's easy for your skin to get oily, but it's not completely matte so it still gives you a nice natural finish.<br />
<b>MaxFactor Primer-</b> Primer was important in making my foundation last and continue looking good for the 7 hours of work. It also really smoothed out my skin.<br />
<b><br /></b>

<b>Urban Outfitters Nail Polish in Tutu- </b>I've been on a nail polish kick this summer and found a few that I'm totally obsessed with. This gold glitter polish looks beautiful especially with the flecks of purple. It's like my perfect polish. Checkout my Instagram (@makeupbymeggy) to see a picture of it on my nails.<br />
<b>Revlon Nail Polish in 420 Copperglaze Platinum- </b>When I first got this polish, I wore it three weeks in a row. Besides the fact that it's rose gold, it's also long lasting and applies nicely.<br />
<b>Flower Beauty Kiss Stick Velvet Lip Color in Tea Rose- </b>This is my perfect nude lipstick. I have fairly pigmented lips so really light nudes look weird on me. But this nude is just the perfect tone for my fair skin. It's also a very comfortable velvety matte. And if you can catch the theme here, the packaging is rose gold.<br />

<b>L.A Girl Pro. Conceal- </b>I had heard a lot about this very inexpensive concealer and I finally picked it up this summer. I got the shade classic ivory which has a pinky undertone making it perfect for concealing and correcting under the eyes. It's also very opaque but extremely blendable. I've been loving it.<br />
<b>Rouge Edition Velvet in 07 Nude-ist-</b> Just for the record, this is in no way a nude. I would almost call it a pinky red but I love it<b>. </b>It's extremely long wearing, even while eating and it's comfortable on the lips. It goes on feeling velvety and smooth but dries completely matte.<br />

Sorry for the lack of posts lately but as you can probably tell from this post, I've been spending a lot of time at the lake lately where internet is unreliable.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In Canada one of the most popular summer activities is going to the lake. We are lucky enough to have access to a cabin on a very nice lake and I tend to spend a lot of time there during the summer. Lake life is very different from being in the city. I often won't wear much makeup, but I still bring a makeup bag. So here's my Lake travel makeup bag.</div>

I started by using Sunset from the itCosmetics Naturally Pretty palette in my crease. I buffed that out with Sunrise. Then took a light cream shade to highlight the browbone.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used Charcoal from the Lorac Pro 2 palette and packed that on the lid. I finally used my finger to dab a little of the Josie Maran Coconut Watercolor Eyeshadow in Rio de Rose Gold in the very centre of the lid.</div>

This is a pale pink lipstick that is great for the spring and summer months. As it's a lip butter so it isn't long lasting but it feels really comfortable and moisturizing on the lips. It is definitely one of my favs.</div>

This is the darkest of the spring lips products I like to wear. It may be a darker pink but it's still fairly bright and really pops on the lips. It's a matte formula but it's really comfortable and long-lasting which is important when wearing a brighter colour.</div>

This hot pink matte lip crayon is really comfortable on the lips. It's long lasting, and mint flavored which leaves a cooling feeling on the lips. </div>

This is a nice, bright coral lipstick that is perfect for the warm months. I find the colour very wearable even with my pale skin. It's a matte formula but comfortable and long lasting. Also the packaging is very cute. I got this in my Ipsy bag so I don't know if it's available in stores but you can find it <a href="http://www.teeezcosmetics.com/read-my-lips-lipstick">online</a>.</div>

<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br />
We're all here because we love makeup. I mean you're reading a beauty blog so I can only assume you share my love for makeup. I thought it was time to explain why I love it!<br />
<br />
Makeup is good for making you feel more beautiful and more confident but, to be honest, I have become completely comfortable going out with no makeup at all. The reason I love makeup is for the creativity. I love playing with new products and experimenting with colours, especially when it comes to eyeshadow. For me, makeup is art. To save myself from becoming really cheesy, I thought I would just leave a few of my more artistic eyeshadow looks. I don't believe I'm the best at doing makeup but it's fun and it allows me to use my imagination.<br />

I was inspired by the colours in this photo I took of the bleeding heart flowers in my backyard. I wanted to do an eyeshadow look that incorporated the pinks and greens.</div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's that time of the month again. Here's what I've been loving in the month of May.</div>
<br />
<b>Jergens Natural Glow Daily Moisturizer</b><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh56EdY7diAksvTRsWj18Qv-mGJ4X3EAlmOblRcH4KyjByRPZDtkfPypBQKilSH-RscQXM7sGak92ZoEtiXci-jhpor05AF7e4_jqvIMIHzD_9EPP0Gz6jtjkm_na4hJQDz9_8Q1spsvi55/s1600/Jergens+May+2016+Favourites.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh56EdY7diAksvTRsWj18Qv-mGJ4X3EAlmOblRcH4KyjByRPZDtkfPypBQKilSH-RscQXM7sGak92ZoEtiXci-jhpor05AF7e4_jqvIMIHzD_9EPP0Gz6jtjkm_na4hJQDz9_8Q1spsvi55/s400/Jergens+May+2016+Favourites.jpg" width="266" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I am as white as snow and thanks to some Icelandic/Irish ancestry, I don't tan, like at all. My skin burns, freckles a little, then returns to snowy white so if I want tanned skin in the summer I have to do it artificially (which is safer so I would suggest it anyway). I like this gradual tan lotion because it doubles as a moisturizer and I can control how dark I get by how often I apply it. It also looks really natural.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<b>Too Faced Melted Liquid Lipstick in Chihuahua</b><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I have been loving this lipstick this month. It's a really pretty mauve colour. The formula is comfortable and long lasting. Plus it smells really good. I like the sponge applicator but it does make it a little difficult to apply.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<b>Too Faced Better than Sex Mascara</b><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Another Too Faced product I have been loving this month. This mascara leaves my lashes looking long and voluminous. I love the wand which has bristles instead of plastic. It also does a really good job of separating my lashes. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I have been reaching for this quick eye shadow pencil a lot this month. It's perfect for days when you're in a rush to get ready. It is such a gorgeous champagne colour and its easy to apply and blend out. I did a eyeshadow look with it a few years ago (one of my very first posts). You can find it <a href="http://makeup-by-meggy.blogspot.ca/2014/04/easy-everyday-eyeshadow-look.html#.V0y7q5ErLIU">here</a>.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This is probably my favourite blush for spring and summer. It gives you an amazing glow that looks very sun-kissed. It's also especially great when you have a bit of a tan. I usually wear it alone on my cheeks without any bronzer, highlight or contour.</div>

I, like a lot of people I think, like to mositurize my hands before bed. My current favourite hand lotion is this one by Zoella. Not only is the packaging super cute, but the lotion is quick to sink in, doesn't leave my hands too sticky or greasy and it smells lovely.</div>

I know I've talked a lot about this body butter on my blog lately so I'll keep it short. I like to use this to moisturize my arms and legs before bed, especially in the summer because of its citrus scent.</div>

This is not a product I use every night, only when I'm having trouble getting to sleep. It's a lotion with a Lavender Chamomile scent that is supposed to help you fall asleep. The scent is so calming and I find rubbing it on my hands and taking a few deep breaths can really help me relax.</div>

This is a step I literally cannot miss before bed. If I don't have some kind of lip balm on my lips, I can't sleep. My favourite brand is Nivea because I find it really moisturizing, it smells good but has no taste. Perfect for bedtime.</div>

Although not technically a beauty product, I love drifting off to sleep with the scent of this candle. This is one of my favourite scents from Bath & Body Works. I never light it because I feel beds and candles are a dangerous combination, but the candle is scented enough that it doesn't need to be lit. </div>

I've amassed another pile of empty products to do a final review on. Like I always say, you can determine your most compete opinions about a product if you've used it all up. Most of my empties this time are skincare related but I do have a few makeup products. I'm using the same format as my past empties posts (<a href="http://makeup-by-meggy.blogspot.com/2014/07/empties-1.html">Empties 1</a>, <a href="http://makeup-by-meggy.blogspot.ca/2014/11/empties-2.html">Empties 2</a>, <a href="http://makeup-by-meggy.blogspot.ca/2015/03/empties-3.html">Empties 3</a>, <a href="http://makeup-by-meggy.blogspot.ca/2015/07/empties-4.html">Empties 4</a>, <a href="http://makeup-by-meggy.blogspot.ca/2015/11/empties-5.html">Empties 5</a>) including a mini review of the product, an estimate of its longevity and whether or not I will repurchase it.</div>

This is one of my most favourite daily moisturizers I've ever used. It smells unbelievable for starters. It also leaves my skin soft and ready for makeup.

A game changer for my skincare. By applying this thick cream before bed, I would wake up with hydrated and soft skin. It's called a renewal cream and that's exactly what I feel like it did. Renewed my skin over night. The citrus smell is also a plus. It's become holy grail for sure!</div>

<b>Origins GinZing Energy Boosting Moisturizer</b><br />
After raving about the Night-A-Mins cream I have to keep Origins humble. I can't say this GinZing Moisturizer was anything special. It hydrated my skin, it wasn't to thick so it applied well under makeup and it smells of citrus, but in my opinion, not worth the money.<br />

I have a review comparing this mask to the Glam Glow Hydrating Mask which you can find <a href="http://makeup-by-meggy.blogspot.ca/2015/02/hydrating-masks-glam-glow-vsthe-body.html">here</a>. I think I like this one just as much as the more expensive option. Overnight it can take my skin from dry and flakey to completely moisturized and back to normal. It's kind of a miracle. Plus a little goes a long way.</div>

This is such an amazing mask! Because it's soooo expensive I tend to only use it on my nose and sometimes the rest of my T-Zone. It immediately clears up any blackheads and makes my skin the clearest it will ever be. It's by FAR the best mask I've used.</div>

It's the return of everyone's favourite series, Take it or Leave it! In this series I provide mini reviews on all of the products I own of a specific brand and let you know which products are worth your money and what you should avoid. Today I focus on Soap and Glory. In Canada, the body products are available from Shoppers Drug Mart. I picked up the makeup when I was in the UK. I certaintly haven't tried everything from the brand but I thought I would give my options on what I have tried. Overall Soap and Glory is one of my favourite brands. </div>

<b>Rich & Foamous Body Wash</b><br />
This is a really great body wash as it smells absolutely amazing and it gets you nice and clean while leaving you feeling moisturized. I'm totally in love with it. You also get a lot, as it comes in a large bottle.<br />
<b>Sugar Crush Body Butter Cream</b><br />
Another amazing smelling product. This has more of a sweet citrus scent which I think is great for spring and summer as it's a really energizing fragrance. It also has a super thick formula which is great for moisturizing.<br />
<b>Archery Brow Tint & Precision Shaping Pencil</b><br />
I am obsessed with the way this product makes my brows look. It fills in your brows while still keeping them looking natural. One end has a fine tip pen which is great at mimicking the look of brow hairs to fill in sparse areas. The other end has a pencil to help shape your brows. I don't know what I'm going to do when this pencil runs out. I guess another trip to the UK is in order :)<br />
<b>Kick Ass Concealer </b><br />
This is the perfect all in one concealer. It has two cream concealer shades and a powder to set everything in place. The pinker more salmon toned concealer is perfect to counteract dark undereye circles, while the more yellow toned concealer hides blemishes perfectly. It's creamy and thick but blends really well and once set with the powder, it won't budge or crease all day.<br />
<b>Sexy Mother Pucker Gloss Crayon</b><br />
A lip crayon that acts more like like a lip gloss is a fairly unique idea but is something that I reach for on a regular basis. The shade I have is Nudist which is perfect for more natural makeup days. It's also really moisturizing and smells wonderfully sweet.<br />
<b>Solar Powder Bronzer</b><br />
All the makeup I've tried from Soap and Glory has been fantastic and this is no exception. It's the perfect bronzer for my fair skin. It has a matte bronze side and a lighter more shimmery side which adds a sunkissed glow to your complexion. One of my all time favourite bronzers.<br />

<b>Hand Food Hand Cream</b><br />
It's not that this isn't a good hand cream, but I find it leaves my skin a little greasy. While the smell is nice, I think there are better hand creams at the drugstore.<br />
<b>Scrub 'Em and Leave 'Em</b><br />
Personally I am not a big fan of the scent of this product but besides that, the granules in this scrub are fairly rough on my sensitive skin. It also is not as moisturizing as I would have liked. There are many better scrubs out there. Unless you love the scent, save your money.<br />
