Worth Every Penny




This is Urban Decay's 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil in the shade Zero. I found that it does glide on easily which makes it easy to apply. The colour is also very intense which is great because you don't have to keep going back and re-applying the product. It also claims to be waterproof which seems to be true because I couldn't even get this off with makeup remover, I have to wait a few days while it faded before it came off! Overall it's definitely a great product and worth the price of $23!

Not So Much Love


This makeup remover by Nars isn't something I'd purchase in full size. Although it definitely wasn't oily it didn't remove all of my eye makeup. To be honest I'm pretty sure it hardly took of any of it because for two days it looked like I was still wearing eyeliner. I guess the eyeliner was awesome but not so much the makeup remover

Feather Earring Inspiration



I purchased these feather earrings at Sea Jewels. I love them because they're really simple and because I've been looking for a cheep pair of feather earrings for a while. Here's some of my inspiration.

YSL Mascara Review



This YSL volume mascara was given to me as a tester. I fell in love with the golden box but the love sort of ended there. This mascara definitely does not give a false lash effect. I'd say it makes your lashes look longer but in away so that it looks natural which is fine, but not what it claims to do at all. I'd say the Maybelline's Falsies has more of an effect than this and the Maybelline one is $10 while the full size YSL mascara is $30!

Golden Summer Arm Candy


I recently went on a trip to Sea Jewels (an accessory store that sells other random stuff) and I picked up the gold feather/leaf bracelet as well as the gold with blue beads bracelet. The golden chain bracelet is from ASOS, and I absolutely love this bracelet because I find it goes with a lot. This combination of bracelets is something that I think is great for summer!

Lots Of Testers



These are some amazing mini testers I got at Sephora. I'm not going to tell you what each product is because  there's a pretty good chance you can look at the pictures and read the labels. The only thing that isn't visible is the thing below the Fresh lip balm which is a Sephora lip liner. 

Stay tuned for reviews from these products.

Blue Eyeliner & Lots Of Shimmer


I got my makeup done at the Sephora around York Ville by Adi Lando. It was really cool and I gained some tips about applying makeup. My eyeshadow is a combination of three Urban Decay eye shadows, the eyeliner is also by Urban Decay, and the mascara is by Sephora's own brand. The blue eyeliner is definitely out of my comfort zone but it looks super cool and I love the eyeshadow, it's naturalish but is still noticeable. 

Beauty In Other Things




These are a few pictures I took while I was camping of a gorgeous sunset. It was absolutely beautiful so I thought I'd share. : )

Stay tuned for lots more beauty related posts, coming soon.

Henna?

(My rings are from H&M)

I got some henna yesterday it wasn't a professional putting it on but I still think it looks alright. I've come to the realization now though that my hand looks like I drew on it with a brown marker. This summer I'm thinking of buying a henna set so I can do it myself but I'm not sure 'cause right now I'm trying to figure out a way to get it off of my hand.

P.S. I'm going away so not posts for about a week.

I See Why



This nail polish called "Turquoise and Caicos" is very talked about and I see why. It's a beautiful combination of teal, mint, and baby blue. It took two coats to become opaque and lasted for about four days before becoming really chipped. I think it's a perfect colour for summer and I plan to be wearing it a lot.

By the way, this will be my last nail polish post for a while.

Essie's Sand Tropez




I got this nail polish to match a pair of flats and it matches perfectly! It's a very neutral colour which is great for layering under a glitter polish or for a really simple nail look. I've decided that I only want to buy Essie nail polishes for a little while because I love all of their colours and want to expand my collection. Especially because they look great lined up in a row on my vanity!

I know I've been doing a lot of nail polish posts lately but there's only one more to go.

Studded Phone Case

(Not my photo, I found it here)
(Not my photo, I found it on Tumblr)
A goal I have for this summer is to make one of these studded phone cases. I think they're super cute! Maybe cute isn't the best word to describe studs but you know what I mean. I think I'm going to make a gold and white one in the pattern above or place the studs in a big C for Chloe.
 I've found a lot of videos online on how to make them so I thought I'd share some good ones incase anyone wants to try out this super neat DIY project.

2 Coats The Charm



This is Revlon's Colorstay Longwear Nail Polish in the colour Bold Sangria. This nail polish is opaque with two coats and with two coats it becomes a very dark purple bordering on black. It took a while to dry but not any longer than any other nail polish. I've only had it on for a day so I don't know how long it lasts but I'll update this post when I know.

Kensington Market Photo Diary

I went to Kensington Market this weekend and took some pictures so I thought I'd do a photo diary.

The picture above and below are both from a couple of vintage stores. A lot of the clothing didn't really seem like something I would wear but it was really cool and entertaining to look at all of the pieces.

Someone was just selling these feather extensions on the street and they look really cool!


My amazing food for the day! 

I found this large collection of sodas and such in a store and was quite fascinated by all of the selection.

For a view of these pictures I used Instagram to edit them. If you want to follow to follow me my name is allthatshinesforever. I know some people couldn't care less but I thought I'd let you know.
Thanks for reading!
