ABH Master Palette by Mario

I feel like I need to try every ABH product that comes out because honestly, I can't get enough of these products. I got my hands on the Master Palette by Mario the day it launched on Sephora.ca because I just couldn't wait. This palette only has 12 pans as opposed to the Modern Renaissance palette which has 14. The palette costs $59 CAD which is a little expensive but in my opinion totally worth it. I won't go through the background on the palette or the inspiration behind it. You can find all that out elsewhere. But I will go through my first impression and how I wear it.

I love this palette because I absolutely love warm browns. I find them so easy to wear. And like other ABH shadows, these are extremely pigmented and super blendable. There's two colours, Claudia the blue, and Bronx the beautiful olive green. Part of the reason I bought this palette was because of Bronx. I was a little afraid to use the blue that I went for it today and I actually found it really wearable and was surprised how much I liked it.

It has the perfect amount of matte and shimmer shadows. Lula and Isabel are my favourite to wear in the crease. Marina and 5th Ave are my favourite shimmer shadows. For my look today I wore Isabel in the crease along with Lula. I then went in with Claudia to do a cut crease. I then put Marina all over my lid. These colours looked so beautiful together and were so pigmented. I didn't have any fallout while applying these shadows, which I found amazing especially working with dark shadows.

If you can afford this palette I completely recommend it. The palette size is smaller and more compact than the Modern Renaissance palette which I really enjoy. You can create daytime or nighttime looks with it. ABH shadows are still my favourite shadows because they are so pigmented. I know this palette is limited edition and it may sell out online. But you should be able to find it in some stores!

November Favourites

So November is over, and Christmas is almost here. I'm not the biggest fan of Christmas, and I'm still missing Halloween. But Christmas means new makeup, and I'm all for that. I haven't had time to try new products (or the money), so most of my favourites are older products that I just can't get enough of. This month my skin has been so dry that products I initially thought I loved ended up not working for me anymore. If you live in Canada, you know how horrible our winters are (unless you live in B.C., then you don't understand). This year in Saskatchewan we've had barely any snow, and it hasn't been that cold. But since everything hasn't frozen over, everything hasn't died yet, so my allergies have been horrible. Favourites My first favourite isn't makeup related which I know, surprising. It's essential oils. I never thought I would jump this hard onto the bandwagon. Because my allergies have been so bad I've been getting a lot

Colour Correcting 101

So it seems colour correcting is the new trendy makeup fad. But it can also be very useful to help complete your look or combat unwanted redness that your foundation just can't cover. I'll go through the most common colour correcting products and explain how they work and what it can do for you. If you feel like this is too much for you, don't worry it's not necessary. I would only recommend this if you have very problematic skin or want to look completely flawless. I think most brands now have come out with their own colour correcting products, so it shouldn't be hard to pick up a product! So by looking at a basic colour wheel you can see how colour correcting works. The colour you are wanting to combat, you use the colour on the opposite side of the wheel. Even with this basic understanding, you are now an expert on colour correcting! But you can keep reading to see how to use the products for each problem.

Too Faced Sweet Peach Collection

One of the biggest problems I have with Too Faced is that they always release Ulta exclusive palettes. I live in Canada, so I can't get these items, and I'm especially not buying anything from their website and paying almost double for the product because of the exchange rate and duty. But this collection was available at Sephora so I was thrilled I could pick it up. I recently picked up some of the items from this collection. I wanted to get my hands on the eyeshadow palette the first time it came out, but it sold out too quickly that I missed it. This time I picked up the eyeshadow palette and two of the lipglosses. I wanted to get Papa Don't Peach and the contour palette, but I just didn't have the money to buy the entire collection. So I chose the items that I wanted most out of the entire collection. Sweet Peach Eye Shadow Palette $59 I was completely on the fence about if I should purchase this palette or not. I had heard from some people that the palette doe
