What's In My Make Up Bag?

I keep a make up bag with me everyday for touch ups at school, you never know when some eyeliner might get smudged or when your face gets a little bit oily. Here's what I bring with me to school everyday, excluding my powder. I use a Monokuro Boo make up bag that was gifted to me by my good friend for my birthday a while ago. As you can probably see, it's a bit beaten up since I just throw it into my bag everyday. I love pigs and Monokuro Boo is my favourite cute character out there because I love Monochromatic things.

What's in my Bag:

The Body Shop Lavender Blotting Sheets

GOSH Cosmetics Soft n Shine Lip Balm in Irony (Peach)

Revlon Make Up Eraser Pen

Revlon Colorstay Eyeliner in Brown

TooFaced Retractable Kabuki Brush

Physicians' Formula Eye Booster Liquid Eyeliner in Deep Brown

MAC Tinted Lip Conditioner in Petting Pink (bottom right corner)

Eye of the Day - Bronze Look

I played around with some settings on my camera and just look at how clear that is! Yeah I know, I have a lot of stray hairs but after I saw this photo and took off my make up I immediately fixed that haha. It looks really yellow here because it was the end of the day and I couldn't get good lighting but overall I'm quite happy with how it turned out on my camera because this was after about 10 hours of wear.

Products Used:

Eye of the Day: Sliver and Black

I realized that I'm a terrible photographer when it comes to taking eye pictures. My hands are shaky and I'm not very good at making the camera focus well enough to pick up everything. I'm also not very good with eye make up, I just like sharing my love for make up haha. I thought one of my recent eyes of the day was pretty decent so I decided to share. In the picture above, I really do like how the camera managed to pick up the light reflecting off the base I used.

Something Cool+More

Sorry guys, I'll start updating more, it's just that I have enrolled in prep school for the summer to prepare for my senior year next year and it's been keeping me busy! Also blogger wouldn't let me upload my photos which is weird. I'll be updating a lot of posts from now on from posts which I was suppose to post in July but couldn't.

I was downtown a few days after the opening of the last Harry Potter movie (it was so good, I cried!) and when I was leaving at Union Station I saw a really cool vending machine!

It dispenses clothes! It's from Mark's Workhouse so it was women's clothes but it was still pretty cool. It had a lot of shirts in different sizes and designs rolled up inside it dispenses the clothes from the bottom. I thought it was a really cool concept. What if buying clothes in the future was like this? Since it was about 11PM at night I only got to take a quick picture on my phone and I didn't get to see how much the shirts cost but I still thought it was kind of cute.

I also went to see a permiere of Captain America the day before it came out. I did quite like the movie but my highlight was the 3D glasses they gave us. They were limited edition 3D glasses and they sure made me smile. I usually throw out my 3D glasses after a movie because I have no use for them after but these ones I kept!

They had red frames and were quite a fun upgrade from the normal ones that you get at the theatre!

This was just a random and non beauty related post, I just thought I'd share these two fun things with you guys!

Review: Neutrogena Anti Residue Shampoo

I've been experiencing some build up in my hair and it's been really bothering me because my hair feels a lot oilier and I feel the need to wash it more when I really shouldn't I heard about this shampoo on some other blogs so I decided to try it. I bought this at Shopper's Drug Mart for about $10 which is a little pricey, but considering the fact that it's only for once a week use, I believed that it would be worth it and last a while.

Right now since I don't use many products in my hair (only shampoo, conditioner and serum), I opted to use it once every 2 weeks instead of one. I've used it for about 2 months now and I use about a palm full on my chest length hair. My very first thought about it was that it smells really strong. At first I was overcome by the smell and although it's not entirely bad, it was really strong and I was taken aback at first. It smells a bit like medicine and does not lather as well as other shampoos I have used.

After I rinsed out the shampoo and used conditioner, my hair felt really clean. I couldn't feel any more build up in my hair. My hair usually gets oily in a day and my hair felt clean even after 2 days. I used it a few more times in the next few weeks and it hasn't made my scalp itchy or given me dandruff like some other shampoos do.

I really do recommend this product to anyone who uses a lot of hair products and feels build up in their hair often. It does what it's suppose to do really well although to anyone I recommend it to I will warn them about the smell!
