Here’s what I wore Thursday September 22. I had an appointment at the hospital that day, so I wanted to be super comfortable, and I really was in this outfit. I really like the combination of orange, mint, and navy as well.

For my birthday in August, I got a 20% off birthday code from Feelunique, so I decided to take advantage of that and pick up a couple of products, I’d been wanting to try.
I picked up three powders. A bit excessive, I know, but I just love powders. I purchased the Sigma Beauty Soft Focus setting powder in Vanilla Bean, the Laura Mercier Translucent Loose Setting Powder Tone Up in Rose, and the e.l.f. Cosmetics Prime & Stay finishing powder in Fair/Light. So far my favourite is definitely the Laura Mercier powder: it’s been one of my go-to undereye setting powders lately.
I’ve been wanting to try the Urban Decay Stay Naked Hydromaniac Tinted Glow Hydrator for so long, so I finally picked it up. I got the shade 20 Fair Neutral, which is a really nice shade on me, and so far I like this product. In my most recent 5 favourites post, I featured the Sigma Beauty Spectrum Color-Correcting Duo in Light to Medium, so I obviously love that product. Another product I’ve also been enjoying is the NARS Bronzing Cream in LAGUNA 1; it’s such a nice cream bronzer. And the last item I decided to get was the Wishful Yo Glow Gingerbread Latte Enzyme Scrub. I’d been wanting to get it since last Christmas, and I’m really excited to finally give it try.
Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I wore the eyeshadow palette and cheek palette from the Natasha Denona My Dream collection (which I haven’t hauled yet), and as always with Natasha Denona products I love how both palettes performed.

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. As you might have noticed, I love a monochromatic make-up look. It’s one of the easiest ways to create a cohesive look.

Here’s what I wore Friday September 16. I took the train home to see my family that weekend, so I just wanted to wear something comfortable and casual.

It’s been a while since I last made a Sephora order, but there was a few products I wanted to try, and then I also picked up a few outlet items.
The main reason why I made this order was because I wanted to try out some more Rare Beauty products. More specifically, I wanted to try the Warm Wishes Effortless bronzer and the new Kind Words matte lipstick and lip liner. I also got a free sample of the Always An Optimist pore diffusing primer.
The Warm Wishes Effortless bronzer is apparently very popular and it had been out of stock for a while, so when it was back in stock, I picked it up in the shade Power Boost, which is the lightest shade. So far I really do like this bronzer. The stick is very easy to use, and it blends out beautifully.
I love that the Kind Words matte lipsticks and lip liners come in matching shades. I picked up both in the shade Talented, which is such a pretty brown nude. I’m wearing both here. I like the packaging too.
The last three products I purchased was from the outlet section. I picked up the Natasha Denona I Need A Nude lipstick in 10NB Andrea, which is a very pretty nude shade. I also picked up the Fenty Beauty Slip Shine sheer shiny lipstick in Vamps Who Brunch, which is a fun deep shimmery purple. An lastly, I got the Too Faced Killer Liner gel eyeliner in Killer Turquoise, because I wanted to try out the formula, and I do really like it.
Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I had a midwife appointment that day and the midwife loved my eyeshadow and asked me if I was a make-up artist. What a huge compliment.

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I really wanted to try out my new MAC Powder Kiss Velvet Blur Slim Stick in the shade Devoted To Danger, which is a stunning yellow-based red, so I paired it with a neutral eye look to let the lipstick be the focus of the look.
