4 beauty tricks using ice

Ice isn't just for drinking anymore! There are a few key tips using ice for your beauty regime. It doesn't take long to go to your freezer and grab a couple pieces. Check out these tips for a cooling face treatment.

1. Facials: Wrap your ice cubes in a ziploc bag or a paper towel and slowly rub over your whole face. Do this for 1-2 minutes right before bed and it will not only smooth your complexion it will also fight acne and wrinkles.
2. Eyes:  Have puffy eyes? Apply some ice wrapped in a washcloth to the puffy areas of your eyes. Do this for a few minutes to serious reduce inflammation.
3. Pore Reducer: This is a great trick to do before applying your makeup. It works almost as well as pore-fessional by Benefit! Ice your pores for at least 2-3 minutes to reduce the size and redness.
4. Zit Zapper: Zits can be combated by holding an ice cube directly on the spot. Wrap the cube in a ziploc bag and apply to the affected area,  for about 5-10 minutes.  It will remove redness and reduce the size of the zit!

You can find a scentsy at scentsy.com, prices range from 35-50$

2. Kate Spade wallet

These wallets are perfect for any girl, they have a wide variety of styles and colors. They are a little bit on the pricey side as the prices range between 60- 200 $ depending on styles , lengths, and colors. But they are very durable and a great gift for any girl.

3. A coffee mug, and Christmas tea

I went to Target recently and they had the cutest Christmas mugs! Last year I gave someone this combo gift and they absolutely loved it. You could switch up tea packets with hot chocolate from Starbucks (one of my personal favorites). This gift is really perfect for anyone girl or boy.

4. TNA sea to sky sweater

These cozy lambswool sweater is perfect for cold weather. They come in some really cool geometric patterns, making them unique yet stylish. This sweater has lasted me 3 years and is my go to sweater for those freezing cold days. You can get them at aritzia.com for 85$

5. Bath Bombs from lush

I get one of these every year and I absolutely love them. I have pretty sensitive skin and I have never had a reaction to these, and they make me smell delicious, some of my favorite scents are cinder, and father Christmas. You can by them at any lush store, prices range between 5 and ten dollars.

Got auburn?

Hey dolls,


Recently I pulled the plug and finally got my hair dyed back to almost my natural color. I also purchased 14' remy hair extensions from Sallys Beauty. SO heres what my hair looks like dyed and with the hair extensions in it.

I really like my hair now, a lot better than I did the weird ombre thing I tried. I did a waterfall braid in this photo which I just learnt to do and definitely like it. Ok well thats it

Hair mask for dry hair

My favourite drugstore mascaras + mini reviews

Hey Loves,

Today I am going to do a review of my favouirte drugstore mascaras!

Maybelline Falsies Express

Maybelline falsies is a great cheap drug store find. I use this mascara when I want dense lashes, or at the base of my lashe proceed by a different mascara as a base.

Covergirl lash blast volume

This mascara is great for lengthening the lashes, I like that it is a dark mascara, and really defines and separates the lashes.

Maybelline great lash

This is probably one of the best mascaras for defining lashes. I like that it comes in brown as well as black tones. Brown is a hard mascara color to find ,at least where I live, but is great paired with a neutral eye or if you want more of a natural eye but bold lashes.
