Week in Vancouver and Seattle

Two weekends ago, I went to Vancouver for the most beautiful wedding!  The bride is so amazing at all sorts of DIY projects - she even planned a 60 guest list wedding all by herself.  T, your elegant dress was gorgeous, makeup and hair so beautiful! You were stunningly breathtaking.  Congratulations again T!  I am so happy that I flew in to celebrate your special day, I had such a great time.

NOTD: Zoya Luna

Happy Friday!

I'm in an extra celebratory mood because of this gorgeous Zoya polish in Luna.
Three coats of it made me dance!

Fashion at the Museum

On my plane ride back to Toronto, I was looking through some past photos and came upon my visit to the Metropolitan Museum of Art (or The MET) in NYC last summer. I attended a special exhibit called "The Model as Muse: Embodying fashion"

Focused on iconic models of the twentieth century and their roles in projecting, and sometimes inspiring, the fashion of their respective eras. The exhibition, organized by historical period from 1947 to 1997, will feature haute couture and ready-to-wear masterworks accompanied by fashion photography and video footage of models who epitomized their epochs. 

Cargo 50% off sale at Sephora

Sephora is clearing out their online and in-store Cargo inventory at 50% off!  Cargo is a Canadian cosmetics brand and in addition to its' regular line, they feature two other collections:

1. PlantLove - natural and eco-friendly. Their hippie packaging is very cute.
2. Blu-ray - makeup suitable for high-definition filming and photography.

The online selection at Sephora is limited, but keep checking because I've seen some items quickly restock and run out.  All listed prices on the website are the 50% sale price.  I hear the Toronto Eaton Centre does not have much inventory left so I recommend checking other Toronto locations. EDIT: shexilicious informed me that Scarborough Town Centre is also out of stock.

If you have no idea what to check out, try their beautiful blushes and bronzers, especially 'The Big Easy' (a pinkish coral blush) and 'Sunset Beach' (multitasking bronzer and blush).  You also can't go wrong with a blu-ray product.

I was lucky to be in Seattle and found a few good items.

Review: Biore Skinpreservation Dual Fusion Moisurizer + spf30

"Do you have skin that's too old for acne but too young for wrinkles?  If your skin is showing dry patches, uneven tone and texture, you have in between skin. Biore's Skin Preservation products optimize your skin for today while preserving it for the future."

Hands up "in between" skin types!  I think many of can relate to this category?  The moment this line went on sale at my local drugstore, I eagerly hauled their day moisturizer and eye cream.  Let's see how their day moisturizer performed.
