Esqido Eyelashes | Little Black Lash Review
Esqido just opened up shop in Holt Renfrew, and though I couldn't make it to the opening event I was kindly gifted a set of their Little Black Lash EL101 ($30 USD) for review. Esqido is a Toronto-based false eyelash company started in 2013. Made from mink hair and cotton bands, the lashes range from simple to extravagant. Their branding is incredible, with snakeskin-printed boxes and rose gold accents.

Essence 2-in-1 Eye Shadow & Liner | 06 "She's Got The Mauve"
I'm always in the market to try a new taupe coloured liner, shadow, or cream eye base. After falling for the Burberry Eye Colour Contour Stick in 116 Dusky Mauve (review) I couldn't help but notice this wonderful creamy eye pencil on the shelf at Shoppers Drug Mart.

Navy Velvet & Tokyo Tortoise | Clearly™ Review
I used to buy new sunglasses all the time, testing out the latest shapes and sizes with each passing summer. I predominantly wear glasses over contacts now since I'm at a computer almost 7 days a week, and my prescription changes every time I visit the optometrist. This means that my sunnies need to have prescription lenses too, which leaves me with very few options to choose from.

Make Up For Ever Water Blend Face & Body Foundation | Review
I am so picky with my foundation products. My favourite concealer is Clarins Instant Light (review), my go-to foundation base is Smashbox CC Cream and I switch between Laura Mercier's Mineral Powder or It Cosmetics Celebration Foundation powder to set it all in place. I recently won this beautiful Face and Body foundation ($54) in a giveaway hosted by Beautezine, and I am so pleased with how it works on my skin.

Make Up For Ever Pro Sculpting Face Palette | Review
Earlier in the summer, I felt as if this Make Up For Ever palette was following me. Popping up on social media, featured in blog giveaways, and gracing the cheeks of my favourite YouTubers. I bit the bullet and purchased the Sculpting Face Palette in shade 20 ($54) for light skin tones.

Avoid The Makeup Meltdown!
I am partial to a simple morning routine: 10 minutes for makeup, and very little skincare underneath. Especially going into winter, I adapt certain steps to make sure that my face makeup is simple and light so that it doesn't melt off by the end of the day.

FOREO LUNA™ mini 2 Save the Sea | Review
Soon after I purchased my Clarisonic Mia 1™ in 2012 (Read: How to Deep Clean a Clarisonic), alternatives to this popular cleansing brush began to enter into the ring. I have been so intrigued by the FOREO brand for years, and I was literally jumping up and down when I received this limited edition "Save the Sea" FOREO LUNA mini 2 for review.
