Being that I am a busy mom, I am always trying to create meals in the kitchen that taste good, take minimal time to prepare and cook as well as having a good nutritional value. Cooking can sometimes be difficult because I have 3 children that have different tastes and needs when it comes to eating. In other words meal time can be very stressful, if preparations are not executed properly.<br />
<br />
Pinterest is my best friend, it gives me inspiration for everything I do whether it be cooking or baking as well have home decor. While perusing I came across a few recipes that I wanted to try but I couldn't decide which to do. So I created my own with the inspiration from a few recipes I had tucked away. Bow Tie Pasta is one of my favourite pasta to eat and use when cooking a meal. I know most pastas taste the same and have similar textures but I really do prefer and love them more.<br />
<br />
I decided to make a creamy sauce which I am normally not a fan of but this meal turned out to be perfect and the family really enjoyed it. Now that the weather is cooler this meal is a perfect comfort meal and its pretty quick to make. Today I am sharing the ingredients and directions to try this meal at home. I promise your family will enjoy it as much as mine did.<br />

<span style="font-family: Century Gothic, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 16.1px;">My favourite is the skin therapy oil. I like to wear it on its own, right after I come out of the shower or I also mix it in with my moisturizer for added hydration. It is a dry oil so it doesn't leave back a heavy residue on my skin or oil spots on my clothes. I love the scent of it, not over powering at all. I also love to use the Skin therapy oil as a massage oil because I can get just enough grip on my skin without causing friction due to the fact that its a dry oil. During the colder weather I always suffer from dry patches that sometimes turn into Eczema. Since the<a href="https://www.palmers.com/en/cocoa-butter-formula/34-skin-therapy-oil.html"> <b>Palmer's Skin Therapy Oil</b></a> is made to improve the skins texture along with skin irritation this is a must have for me. </span></span><br />

<br />
<br />
Happy Monday everyone! Today I wanted to share with you a special review. With many holiday feasts behind and ahead of me I have many extra pounds that I need to shed and alot of bloating that I could do without. A few months ago, summertime to be exact I was contacted by a Canadian brand based out of Vancouver BC that specializes in cleansing/detoxing teas. Now <b>Purgo Tea</b> is not like most detoxes where you omit certain foods and replace with another instead the Teatox system is designed to boost the natural responses that our bodies have to cleanse and you are still able to maintain a healthy diet without feeling starved.<br />
<br />
The<b> Purgo Tea</b> detoxing line helps aid in eliminating bloating, increasing energy, boosting your metabolism and detoxing the body, We all know after a holiday feasts with all the food and drink consumption regrettably we don't feel the greatest after. In fact that is one of the reasons that I waited as long as I did to share with you my review. Especially after Thanksgiving! I know I had one too many slices of my homemade Apple Pie. I was able to stretch the product sample that I received in order to really put it into effect after a Family dinner. <br />
<br />
A little background on my eating habits. I have a gluten allergy that is increasingly getting worse when ingested I have body aches, migraines, extreme fatigue and bloating to the point where I look about 8 months pregnant. I also suffer from IBS and acid reflux. So in a nut shell my digestive system sucks! I'm always scoping out my surroundings to make sure there is a bathroom close by or I just refrain from eating while I am out.<br />
<br />
Now after the first day of using the Morning Detox for both morning and afternoon, I noticed a significant difference in my energy level and bloating, I peed like every 15-20 minutes, my IBS symptoms had lessened. I especially found that when I woke up after a long night and I was tired, I was able to make a cup of the <b>morning magic</b>, I call it and I was bright eyed and bushy tailed for my day.<br />
<br />
The Evening Cleanse was very intriguing, because I suffer from chronic Diarrhea most of the time with the tummy tornadoes as an alert to find a toilet I didn't experience any of that while doing the evening cleanse every other day. I was more consistent, my number #2's didn't have an odor and by the 3rd day my bloating which normally takes about 6-7 days to sort of go down was completely down.<br />
<br />
Since I don't have or want a scale I couldn't weigh myself to see if I had shed any pounds I did however notice that my close were much looser, I wasn't uncomfortable after eating either. Once the 10th day arrived I was able to take some measurements and noticed that I had lost 3.5 inches in my mid section because the bloating had completely gone away.<br />
<br />
What I love about the <b>Purgo Teatox system</b> is that its made to detoxify my body without the pain that normally comes along with typical detoxes. The Morning and Evening Cleanse are great tasting and all natural and you can actually see bits and pieces of the tea and make out what exactly you are drinking. It brewed very well and I was able to use the tea well over 2-3 times and each time it didn't weaken the steeping at all.<br />
<br />
You can either choose a 14 Day detox for a quick cleanse or a 28 day/4 week Teatox for a more thorough body cleanse to rebalance themselves. The best way to get good results while on this system is to follow a 4- step plan:<br />
<br />
1. Drink morning detox tea<br />
2. Eat nutritious food<br />
3. Be active (at least 30 mins of excercise)<br />
4. Drink evening cleanse (every other day)<br />
<br />

Well as you can see this isn't a beauty post. Let be real I lead a normal life with a family and baking is one of my passions. I will be sharing more lifestyle posts with you my lovely readers while I make a transition into a more lifestyle based blog. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I've never made Blondies before until recently. I heard alot about how delicious they were but since I am more of a cookie type person I didn't care much for it. I added alot more peanut butter cups then required just for the extra flavour. They turned out quite good given the fact the main binder in this recipe rather than using flour it called for Chick Peas.... crazy right!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
A few months ago I featured a<b><a href="http://boldnbeautifulmakeup.blogspot.ca/2015/03/review-jealous-body-scrub.html"> post</a></b> on <b>Jealous Body</b> a Canadian Brand out of Vancouver. Their products are made with natural products that are beneficial to the skin. Today's post features one of their new scrubs, along with others that provide the skin with nutrients to improve the overall feel and look.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
There are 4 new additions to the body scrub line which again, all contain natural products that are targeted towards 4 colour coded skin types. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b>Dry to Normal</b>- Dark Pink: Soothes irritated skin and improves complexion</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b>Sensitive to Normal</b>- Teal : Heals scars and hydrates skin</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b>Dry/Mature Skin</b>- Orange : Soothes irritated skin and improves complexion</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b>Oily Skin</b>- Purple : Tones skin to balance PH to prevent breakouts and repair skin</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b>All skin types</b>- Light Pink : Repairs all skin concerns</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I can't stress enough how much I enjoy using scrubs, I think they are essential in body care to get rid of dead skin for a more soft feel. I especially love the fact that they are made with natural products that I know are great for the care of my skin and after each use I can feel a significant difference in the way I look and my skin feels. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
To use I normally take about 2 -4 TBSP depending on where I am using the scrub. Its important to use circular motions in order to buff away dead skin. There are many uses for these scrubs, I also like to use them when I am doing my at-home pedicures a must try! I guarantee you will love!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-r9QNk2cnGNg/VgrXVyqj2nI/AAAAAAAANNc/qUYoZIt2LvU/s1600/L%2527occitane%2BShea%2BHoney%2BCollection.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="L'Occitane Shea Honey Collection" border="0" height="480" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-r9QNk2cnGNg/VgrXVyqj2nI/AAAAAAAANNc/qUYoZIt2LvU/s640/L%2527occitane%2BShea%2BHoney%2BCollection.jpg" title="L'Occitane Shea Honey Collection" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
If you don't know what <b><span style="color: #e69138;">World Sight Day</span></b> is, allow me to shed some beautiful light. <span style="color: #e69138;"><b>World sight day </b></span>is the second Thursday in October every year. It is an important advocacy day for the Community, for awareness around the prevention and treatment of Blindness. <b><span style="color: #e69138;">World Sight Day</span></b> is a time to engage with others on the importance of proper eye care. By urging those around us to focus more on the significance of proper eye exams, especially for those in need who cannot afford to maintain yearly eye exams.<br />
Now keep in mind <b><span style="color: #e69138;">World Sight Day</span></b> doesn't just advocate for eye exams but also for rehabilitation, and irreversible loss of vision.<br />
Studies show that there is an estimated seven million individuals that become visually impaired and that more than half (80%) of cases are avoidable.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #e69138;"><b>L'Occitane</b> </span>created a limited edition collection in honor of <b><span style="color: #e69138;">World Sight Day</span></b>. The Gem of this collection is the <b><span style="color: #e69138;">Solidarity Soap</span></b> which not only smells wonderful, but for every soap purchased an eye exam or pair of glasses is provided for someone in need in the rural areas of Burkina Faso.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-iFuSWtJxgdk/Vgvc9_jk7yI/AAAAAAAANNw/x3N2aW8bOUM/s1600/L%2527Occitane%2BSolidarity%2BSoap.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="L'Occitane Solidarity Soap" border="0" height="400" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-iFuSWtJxgdk/Vgvc9_jk7yI/AAAAAAAANNw/x3N2aW8bOUM/s400/L%2527Occitane%2BSolidarity%2BSoap.png" title="L'Occitane Solidarity Soap" width="400" /></a></div>
With the launch of this collection it brings together two of <b><span style="color: #e69138;">L'Occitane's</span></b> strongest commitments- the support of the visually impaired as well as the support of entrepreneurship of Women in Burkina Faso. With that being said <b><span style="color: #e69138;">L'Occitane</span></b> works with 17,000 Women in the country to produce the Shea Butter that is found in many of their Body care items today and these women are paid 3.5 the market price for their product and 80% up front to provide income throughout the year.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #e69138;"><b>FUN FACT</b></span>: <b> L'Occitane</b> is the first brand to include brail on their packaging.<br />
<br />
I love the smell of this collection the scent of the Shea Butter and Honey is very soft and the hand cream like many of the other <b><span style="color: #e69138;">L'Occitane</span></b> creams is very moisturizing on the skin. Now that the weather is cooling down and my skin gets a little drier the Ultra soft body cream is perfect to add to my body care routine to restore my skins moisture.<br />
<br />
This collection will be <b>launching on October 6th in store and online</b></div>

Now that summer is over I wanted to share with you one of my favourite manicures that I wore during the season. Summer is the best time to dig through your stash to find your Summer Neons and Brights. One of my favourite brands that carry a great range of Neons and fun bright colours is China glaze. For my Manicure I used <b>China Glaze's Flip Flop Fantasy</b> which is a bright neon Pink. To make this extra fun I added <b>Sinful Colors </b>glitter polish in<b> Pink 4 Fever</b>. Which is a pink based jelly consistency with small silver shimmer and small/medium sized circular flecks of glitter.<br />
To top off my manicure I used a high shined top coat from Seche Vite and allowed it to dry<br />
<br />
What were some of your favourite summer colours that you wore? Let me know in the comments down below.</div>

<br />
Anything Ombre I am totally digging, what better way to have Ombre but in your makeup. Hard Candy as you know is a go to brand for me for many makeup items for the face. I was recently given a blush to try and I wanted to share with you a little of why I love it so much. Lets talk about the price first, it is very rare that you find a makeup item for the face for under $10. Hard Candy's <b>Glow all the way </b>Blush ranges in the $7-$8 range and its packed full of pigmented heaven. The Hard Candy <b>Glow All the Way</b> Blush is a beautiful Ombre Pink that I wore alot during the summer. It gave just the right amount of colour to the cheeks without looking too pink. Its a great item to add to your makeup collection for someone just starting out in makeup, looking for a great Spring and Summer colour.<br />

Hello all my beauties! Its been about 2 months since I've done a blog post. During that 2 months alot have gone on in my life, all good things but I am glad to be back. I recently moved and started a new job, so things were packed my brain was not channeled into the beauty world.<br />
Now that things are getting somewhat settled I will be easing back into the blogging atmosphere. Thanks to all who stuck around during my little time away. I promise to get back to business shortly!<br />
<br />
Stay Tuned!<br />
xoxo Janella</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-yodT3RVrwtw/VZqtPYrmw-I/AAAAAAAANK8/LxJmLzJyU74/s1600/Givenchy%2BCroisiere%2BPoudre.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Celebrating 10 years of Beauty | Givenchy Croisiere Poudre Bonne Mine" border="0" height="640" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-yodT3RVrwtw/VZqtPYrmw-I/AAAAAAAANK8/LxJmLzJyU74/s640/Givenchy%2BCroisiere%2BPoudre.jpg" title="Celebrating 10 years of Beauty | Givenchy Croisiere Poudre Bonne Mine" width="440" /></a></div>
<br />
<b>Givenchy</b> is one of those luxury brands that every woman should own one of. In celebration of <b>Givenchy's</b> 10 years of beauty I wanted to share with you<b> Givenchy's Poudre Croisiere</b>. A weighless and long lasting healthy glow powder that can be worn all year round. It is the first talc free powder with invisible texture and gives a beautiful natural glow to the skin. Whats more intriguing is that is a baked gel powder which I have never heard of before. The texture is very soft and blendable as well.<br />
<br />
The price point is a little on the high side retailing in the $50 range but its well worth the money for a luxury brand. The <b>Givenchy Poudre Coisiere</b> applies perfectly with the Kabuki brush and <b>Givenchy's Mister Radiant. </b><br />
<br />
<b><i>How to apply:</i></b><br />
<i>Using the Kabuki Brush, stroke over the entire face paying attention to the forehead, cheekbones, bridge of nose and decolette.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
Since I have a lighter shade (<b>poudre bonne mine #2)</b> I love how soft the powder applies. It gives myself a soft golden sheen to my skin highlighting the high points of my face without looking overly highlighted. I would say that this is perfect for everyday makeup application where I wanted a subtle wash of colour to my face. Given that it is a higher price point I also only use it on occasion so that It lasts as long as possible. </div>

<br />
<br />
There are so many primers on the market, enough to confuse anyone just looking for one that simply primes and keeps makeup in place. I've tried many primers throughout my makeup years to know what type of textures I like and dislike. I was introduced to <b>Givenchy Mister Mat</b> back when I worked at Sephora and I instantly fell in love. I guess I should say that textures of primer I personally don't like to use are primers that are silicone based. Ewww! Anyway that brings me to my next point. <b>Givenchy Mister Mat</b> is a silicone based primer!<br />
<br />
Yes you heard me! and I love it. What I didn't know was that there are many silicone based primers that have different textures and I have discovered that the more slip to a silicone based primer the more I disliked it. <b>Givenchy Mister Mat</b> has become one of my true loves in the primer family. Its light weight, fills imperfections and mattifies the skin on those hot summer days. You can wear it alone to control oil or underneath makeup. Its also great for men who also have oilier skin and want to control it. Another plus to the <b>Givenchy Mister Mat</b> primer is that it can be used to touch up throughout the day on top of your makeup, which alot of primers do not allow you to do without compromising your makeup application. The perfect amount to use is a dime size amount and evenly spread it along the face. For those who have an oilier t zone I would recommend starting in the t zone first and distributing the primer outwards.<br />
<br />
Overall I love this primer, its always my go to for the warmer months and it makes my makeup look and stay fresh all. day.<br />
What are some of your favourite primers to use in the summer? Let me know in the comments below<br />

<br />
Mark. has just launched their limited edition body oils in 4 favourite bath and body collection scents. These oils are fast absorbing oils that lightly moisturize the skin not leaving back any lingering greasy residue and packed with a soft scent. The Mark. Body oils are available in 4 scents <b>Dreaming of Jasmine, Sweet on Lemon Sugar, Passionate for Plumberry and Crushing on Coconut. </b>Each bottle is 200 ml and is sold for $14.00<br />
<br />
I love how the oils absorb into the skin without leaving an oily residue. I prefer the residue more so in the Winter months when my skin needs it. However since its fast absorbing I love applying it while my skin is still damp or I also like to mix into my body lotion. The scent is also not over powering and it has somewhat of a cooling sensation on the skin.<br />
<br />
Overall the Mark. Body oils are great for the summer months for moisture and for soft scents on the skin and they are lovely to mix and play around with. You can purchase these through your <a href="http://www.avon.ca/shop/en/avon-ca/find-rep">Avon sales rep</a> or <a href="https://www.avon.com/category/mark?">online</a> </div>

If you checked my<a href="http://boldnbeautifulmakeup.blogspot.ca/2015/07/mark-cosmetics-buenos-aires-vibe-nailed.html"> <span style="font-size: large;"><b>post</b></span></a> out last night it featured<b> Mark. cosmetics</b> <b>Buenos Aires Vibe Nailed It kit</b>. This kit as I said is beautiful and a definite must have. As pomised today's manicure are done using the trend shades in the kit. It did take two coats of the holographic purple shade (<b>palermo purple</b>) for complete opacity and about 3 coats for the blue shade (<b>futbol blue</b>) topped with my Seche Vite top coat. I love how both shades really compliment each other as well.<br />
<br />
For a mini nail polish kit at $9 you will be pleasantly surprised and how well they apply and last on the nails. Since they are limited edition shades I would really love if they became permanent to add to my ever growing collection.<br />

Im always on the hunt to find a great brush for the eye area that can blend cream or liquid products seamlessly. <b>Eco Tools</b> has a great range of brushes that are made to suite the needs of an every day Woman. The<b> Eye Perfecting Brush</b> is made to mimic the shape of a finger with dense domed shaped bristles to apply cream and liquid products seamlessly as well as to diminish to appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Since the bristles are so dense you are able to focus on areas around the eye that need more coverage such as dark circles. You can purchase this brush for $10.99 along with other brushes in the <b>Complexion Collection </b>line at select retailers such as Rexall, Pharma Plus and Lawton Drugs.<br />
<br />
I really love how soft the <span style="line-height: 18px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>EcoTools Complexion Collection Eye Perfecting Brush </b>feels on the skin. I didn't experience any tugging and when applying my concealer I was able to blend and apply without compromising the coverage I was looking for. I love the design of the ferrule as well. Out of all the brushes I own I don't own any quite as beautiful as the design that the<span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span></span><span style="line-height: 18px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>EcoTools Complexion Collection Eye Perfecting Brush </b>has. The brush is also quite sturdy and I didn't experience any shedding. If you are looking for a brush that works well with liquid and cream products then I would strongly suggest checking out this line. </span></span></div>

<br />
Such a beautiful name for a fragrance. Amour is a fragrance that I love to wear on special occasions. Its a light romantic scent that blooms on the skin as the day progresses. Amour ( Meaning love in french) is composition of love and harmony in a bottle. The packaging has intricate floral engravings which gives the impression of romance.<br />
<br />
The main accords of the Amour fragrance are Floral (White Magnolia & Lily of the valley), White Floral ( Jasmine), Green, Woody (sandlewood & Cedar) and Citrus<br />
<br />
Overall this is a fragrance that everyone woman should have in their collection. The packaging and scent are a great addition because of its meaning and look. To purchase Amour you can visit <span style="font-size: large;"><b><a href="http://www.avon.ca/shop/en/avon-ca/amour-eau-de-parfum-spray#.VZfVrPlVhBc">www.avon.ca</a></b></span><br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
Well if you're reading this post and you didn't tune in yesterday you may want to go back and catch that post <b><a href="http://boldnbeautifulmakeup.blogspot.ca/2015/07/what-is-strobing-part-1-products.html"><span style="color: black;">HERE</span></a> </b>if you did and you're here to see exactly how <b>Strobing</b> is done awesome. Now as I said in yesterdays post, <b>Strobing</b> is the new/old technique of highlighting. If you are unfamiliar with what higlighting is. It is a way to emphasize the high points of the face where natural light normally hits.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
More so, <b>Strobing</b> is now known as a fool proof way to contour without using the traditional contouring technique of applying darker foundations etc to de-flaw the face for a more flattering look. When <b>Strobing</b> is done correctly it should look like a natural glow from within, not a shimmery disco ball look. Now from my <span style="color: black; font-size: large;"><a href="http://boldnbeautifulmakeup.blogspot.ca/2015/07/what-is-strobing-part-1-products.html"><b><span style="color: black;">post</span></b></a> </span>yesterday I provided a few products which I categorized based on complexions that are not overly shimmery or chunky in texture, instead they provide the skin with a more natural soft glow of the skin when applied strategically. As I said this is not so much a new technique but more a short cut way to achieve a contour. As promised I have posted a face diagram of the placement for highlighting I have also listed in the "shop the post" section for the list of products I used to do <b>Strobing. </b>Along with that I have also provided a side view of how strobing looks after completion.</div>

Contouring was a trend that started quite a few years ago and became very popular among some of societies favourite celebrities suck as <b>Kim K</b>. It was a technique that consisted of applying or "sculpting" the face with a foundation, contouring cream or powder that was 2-3 shades deeper than your natural skin to give the face a more chiseled / thinner look. Then you would follow with a highlight shade the same 2-3 shades lighter to the high points of the face where the light would naturally hit to give the skin a "glow". Basically alot of products and alot of time to build a celebrity "cake face"<br />
<br />
For some this technique could either work in your favor if you know what you are doing or it could potentially be a complete fail. The good thing is you can now forget about contouring and forcus on the new trend "<b>Strobing</b>" the bad thing is, you now have a bunch of high priced makeup items that are 2-3 shades darker than your skin and you know you will <u><b>never</b></u> be that dark.<br />
<br />
<b>Strobing </b>focuses primarily on highlighting the high points of the face that the light naturally hits. Some high points to mention would be the cheek bones, cupids bow, temples, centre of the nose, the chin as well as the forehead. Leaving your skin looking luminous and refreshed and not like an 80's disco ball. Which brings me to the purpose of my post. I decided that I would share some of the items that many of us currently have in our stash, that would be perfect for "<b>Strobing</b>" These items can be used for all skin types as long as they're used correctly. Tomorrow's post I will have a Diagram of my face of how I have done my own "<b>Strobing</b>" so you can see exactly how it is done. I have broken down the products in to 3 complexion categories fair, medium and deep. Stay tuned for my next post where I show you how to use these products.<br />

Over the last few months I have been sharing many affordable makeup items which are exclusive to Walmart Canada from <b>Hard Candy</b>. I decided to save a few of the fun items for last mainly because blue and purple lip gloss is not for everyone to wear on an everyday basis. <b>Hard Candy Fierce Effects lip glosses</b> come in 8 bold shades as well as 4 shades that are more on the sheer side for washes of colour. </div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The two shades that are pictured here <b>Skyfall</b>(sky blue) and <b>Plum Diva</b>( purple) are pretty shades in the tube however worn alone you have to put some work in to get an opaque colour pay off. The <b>Hard Candy Fierce Effects daring lip glosses</b> are enriched with argan oils to keep the lips well hydrated. With that being said be cautious, I did experience some bleeding from too much layering and the amount of hydration they provide. I do feel that these <b>Hard Candy Fierce Effects daring lip glosses</b> would wear better layered over a lipstick to give the lips more dimension.</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Overall I think the thought of having a pastel blue gloss along with a purple are fun as for practicality I wasn't impressed, which I was very sad about because generally <b>Hard Candy</b> has alot of great products in their line that are of quality. </div>
<br />
Now to see what these babies look like on my lips. Take a look and while you're here let me know in the comments if these would be colours you would be inclined to wear.<br />

White manicures have been on trend for a couple years now. Sometimes I like them sometimes I don't. It depends alot on the shape and length of the nails. The shorter the nail the more it looks like you painted your nails with white out. The longer the nails the more it looks super chic and on trend. Right now my nails are in the in between stage. I naturally have longer nail beds. So while my nails are fairly short they still appear to have some length.<br />
<br />
I decided on a white manicure just to brighten up my nails so they stand out for the time being. Actually the real reason I applied white nail polish is because I fell in love with my 15 year old's semi formal manicure she did on herself and I wanted to do the same. Since I have been cleaning out and purging my stash I got to play around with nail polish that I have only really swatched and not worn.<br />
<br />
To complete my manicure I used <b>Sally Hansen Insta Dry</b> line from the <a href="http://boldnbeautifulmakeup.blogspot.ca/2014/10/sally-hansen-2014-halloween-nail.html">Halloween 2014 collection</a> in the shade <a href="http://boldnbeautifulmakeup.blogspot.ca/2014/10/sally-hansen-2014-halloween-nail.html"><b>OMGhost</b></a> followed by an opalescent glitter from<b> Sinful Colors</b> in <b>Pearl Harbor</b>, and of course my Seche Vite top coat.<br />
<br />

We are now into summer just shy of a week and I have to say its a bust. I am ready for hot sun, tanned skin and a Satin Glow. So since Summer doesn't know when it wants to make its appearance I wanted to share with you <b>AVON Skin so soft Satin Glow Illuminating Moisturizer</b>. Its an Illuminating moisturizer that both moisturizes the skin as well as it provides a beautiful sunkissed glow to the skin.<br />
<br />
I took this illuminating moisturizer to the Dominican Republic last year and wore it and I was in love. Now that summer is here and the sun is still hiding its a great way to give the skin a healthy glow. Its great for all skin tones and the luminosity isn't overly. Infused with tropical oil and flowers your skin is left feeling very hydrated and supple.<br />
<br />
The reason why I love this so much is because it leaves my skin looking flawless. For those that suffer from cellulite or hyper pigmentation the <b>AVON Skin so soft Satin Glow Illuminating Moisturizer</b> is a great way to "cover up" or diffuse the areas we are to fond of showing. Since this is an older product, and I am sure it will come back on<a href="http://www.avon.ca/"> <b><span style="font-size: large;">avon's site</span></b></a> you may find that the prices vary. </div>

Hello Beauties! Sorry for all the press releases but you need to know the beauty buzz and today's (well yesterday's) news is really exciting. As well all know Kendall Jenner is the new fave of <b>Estee Lauder</b>, although I think its kind of odd knowing that this line is older than the spokes model herself, its nice to know that <b>Estee Lauder</b> is portraying themselves to be an ageless brand where any woman of any age can find something that they love.</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>Kendall and Estee Lauder</b> have just partnered to bring you a limited edition shade in <b>Estee Lauders </b>iconic Blue and Gold packaging, this shade described as being part <b>Poppy(red)</b> and part <b>Orange Crush</b> (Orange). What's even more exciting is that the texture is matte. The name of the lipstick is called <b>Relentless</b>.</div>

I will say the shade is absolutely stunning I love Orange toned Reds especially for the summer.
