Hey Everyone,

I’ve abandoned this site and I feel terrible. What has happened since I last posted….a year ago? Let’s do a quick wrap-up and see what I can remember!

I went to Arizona in November 2017

I’m still in school…since September 2015

I celebrated my birthday in Whistler, BC

I hiked a ton during Summer 2016

I had a co-op job in my field in Summer 2016

Clearly…nothing too exciting but I’m hoping that 2017 would bring a lot of surprises and adventures.

I’m graduating!

I’m in the process of planning a South-East Asia trip (give me tips!)

Friends are getting engaged and/or popping babies every month!

I am wanting to go on more nature walks and hikes in my province…maybe a road trip?

This is a short post, but got to start somewhere! Always good to start small, but frequent then grow into the larger roles. I have many products that I’ve tried over the year and I want to share you my thoughts on them and my skin recovery story too!

Until next time!

I made a purchase months ago from theBay.com filled with some beauty goodies that were just replenishments of mine. I also had a coupon code to use for some discount, so why not?!

Anyways, I just wanted to share with you the “haul” I had received from The Hudson Bay company included in my shipment! It was definitely a nice treat, now I also have a small bag to use!

If you didn’t know, The Bay has some pretty good stuff and they are now starting to include more and more brands. Definitely another place you can splurge at if you don’t feel like going to your usual Sephora or Ulta. They also have a points program too, that gives you more than just points…it gives you GIFTCARDS back! And you can also earn it form cosmetic, skin care, clothing, to appliances! Imagine all the points you can get if you were to get your entire house’s needs from here. DANGGGGGG ;)

Sephora usually has those 500-point perk and this time, I finally splurged on my points and got myself this Josie Maran pack! In here you will find the following:

Josie Maran Argan Oil

Josie Maran Argan Enlightenment Illuminating Veil

Josie Maran Argan Infinity Lip Cheek  Creamy Oil

Josie Maran Pure Argan Milk Intensive Hydrating Treatment

The only thing that I’ve tried from this kit prior was the regular argan oil. I use this at night on top of my nightly moisturizer to add in extra moisture and seal in the hydration. The new thing that I’ve tried from this kit was the highlighter. It was definitely creamy and lives to the name!

Beautylish Charlotte Tilbury Magic Foundation

Charlotte Tilbury MAGIC Foundation – I’m soooooo excited to have finally received this order I placed just at the end of February. Let’s just say that it was a long 1.5 weeks of waiting! I cannot wait to try this out.

I’ve been looking at her demo videos and the results, and I cannot wait to try this out on my picky skin. For reference I have dry, sensitive skin that is prone to acne (mostly jaw and just right before my ears). There have a lot of redness too. So I would love to see how this makes my skin look. It has claims that it would camouflage these red bumps and smooth out the look of the texture on my skin.

Be back soon with a VIDEO! Maybe a FIRST IMPRESSION video?

Revlon Matte Balm

When I got the L’oreal Pro Matte Lipgloss, I came across this Revlon Matte Balm. I used to have their stick lip glosses, but gave those away due to the colour not suiting my lifestyle? I’m more of a lip balm/chapstick type of gal. This went on smooth and was initially not drying. Of course, with any matte products, the first and foremost thing is to have a moisturizing base! If you don’t, you can…

It's officially been a year since I've set foot on Iceland. Still surreal how I was given the opportunity to visit a place I never would have thought could blow me away like that. I can't wait until the next time I get to go back. But more importantly, I can't wait until the next time I get to go on a trip. ✈️🌧☀️🏞🌌 #studentlife #travelbug #iceland #icelandair #takemeback #aurora #heklaaurora #island #anniversary #oneyear #untilnexttime #reminiscing #nordic #icelandic #ineedabreak

L'oreal Infallible Pro Matte Gloss

L’oreal Infallible Pro Matte Gloss

Recently, I went on a haul to get some NUDE MATTE lip colours. I’m not a lip colour girl, but I thought that if I were to get some nudes, it be ‘aight. Here, I have the L’oreal Infallible Pro Matte Gloss. I purchased this from Superstore when they had a sale on L’oreal products! For the price point, I thought it wasn’t bad. Unfortunately……when I opened it and tested it out, it was too mauve for…

PST…coupon code is somewhere in this article ;)

So back in December, I discovered a new #subscriptionbox! This was a box that only provided or supplied with cruelty free, vegan, and natural products! Which is rare, and some of the brands that they supply include #juicebeauty, #glamnatural, #studioaroma, and many up and coming new brands that are so underground!

cream blush and night cream

konjac sponge

cuticle oil

front facing card

Some background info: #laritzybox is a monthly subscription box that includes a small box or the regular, which you can choose. The regular one is about 25$USD per month and the mini box is around 15$USD per month. As a Canadian purchasing these, it’s quite expensive with the conversion, and also there is a 5$USD shipping charge for Canadian orders. Just an FYI.

Pros: – this allowed one to try out different brands at a lower price – great for those who are looking into finding cruelty free, vegan, and natural products – it is reasonably priced considering what you get in the box – you get beauty and cosmetic – coupon code: HOLIDAY5, BF40

Cons: – the shipping company they used charge me duty (This issue was EASILY resolved, Emily – the creator of LaRizy is an absolute ANGEL. I love her for her customer service and her courtesy. Just everything!) – USD to CAD is terrible (I know it’s not related, but it is a great reason why I stopped) – the mini box and regular box contain the SAME item (as in if you order the regular box and also have the mini subscription, there will be repeats) – not tailored to individual

Overall: If it wasn’t for the shipping and possibility of duty (with the exchange rate), I would have continued with it. I love looking for alternate products that are not harmful. Will I try this again? Yes I will, once the dollar isn’t so bad and that I have researched enough and understand what postal company they would use in the future.

  Love,
