Jean-Coutu and Winners purchases + Mario Galaxy 2 + FOTN + OOTN + HOTN

Friday, I went to Jean Coutu to grab my pills, and, of course, I had to quickly browse the makeup aisle. I found those two mascaras on sale (both were around $2 off):

 Rimmel LYCRA Lash Extender in Black 001

Rimmel LashMaxxx in Exterme Black 003

My boyfriend bought me a box of Vector (because I always eat a bowl of those at his place) and... Mario Galaxy 2!

I spent 5 hours straight playing this game on Sunday LOL.


I loved Mario Galaxy 1, but it was to my boyfriend and his brothers and they decided to sell it for another game before I could finish it )= I'm already at World 3 in Mario Galaxy 2, and the feature I like the most is Yoshi, of course! I also love the fact that you can play with a friend who will be a Luma who follow Mario (you can't control her) and who can immobilize ennemies and even eliminate them. The Luma can also grab coins and star pieces. Sometimes, you can even play as Luigi! This game also appear easier than the first one so far, but it's a lot of fun!


Friday, my friend Stéphanie held a party in her house. My boyfriend suggested it would be cool to make it a cocktail night, so every one attending had to bring a liquor so we could make lots of cocktails. It was fun, but I think I prefer to stick to beer (cocktails tend to be too sugary). Here's my FOTN, OOTN and HOTN:


Face
Annabelle Zebra Bronzing Powder - Haute Gold
Marcelle Minerals Powder Blush in Natural Glow
Joe Fresh Duo Concealer - Light
Annabelle Satellite Pearl Powder - Celestial Pearl 


Eyes
Maybelline Great Lash Clear Mascara (used as eyebrow gel) 
L'Oréal ColorAppeal Trio Pro Hazel Eyes - Honey Brown
Maybelline Great Lash Blackest Black Curved Brush Mascara - Blackest Black

Lips
Vaseline (my lips always seem to be dry and irritated!)


cardigan: Stitches
white cami: Stitches
black cami: Simons
shorts: Stitches (old jeans I cut into shorts)
socks: Ardène


 I like to messily curl my hair with my flatiron to give it some volume when I go out.



Here are some randoms pictures of the party:


Oh yeah, one sad thing, though...

Sara accidentaly broke a wing of my ring (blame it on the alcohol!). I will try to fix it, but I'm not sure if it will do )=


Sunday, I went to Winners because the boyfriend needed some shorts. I didn't really need something, but as we were heading to the fitting room, I spotted a rack filled with pretty little prom dresses. I couldn't help but take a quick look (I needed a dress to attend my friend's wedding in August, after all!) and a super cute yellow dress catched my attention. At $24.99, it was such a bargain, so I bought it. Here it is:

It has cute ribbons in the back that you can tie in a bow, but I wasn't able to do so without help, so I didn't took a picture of the back of the dress. The back is made of stretch material, so I don't even have to were a bra (but I will LOL). There's also a zipper in the back.

I was thinking about getting this dress from H&M for the wedding:


But when I saw the one from Winners at $24.99 and exactly my size, I couldn't pass by!

I also spotted this super sexy dress that I wanted to try on just for fun:


I love the zippers! It's a dress made of stretchy denim with decorative zippers. I didn't buy it because I don't know where I could were it. It seems too sexy to go clubbing... It was also $24.99, so I was hesitant... I still don't know if I should buy it or not, but by the time I go to Winners again, my size will probably be gone -_-


Monday and Thuesday, I basically spent all day in the sun in my backyard in a swimsuit (with loads of sunscreen, of course!) hoping to get a tan. It was around 30°!


CAM WHORE CAM WHORE CAM WHORE

 My baby also got to play in the sun, but not for long, as he is used to A/C LOL.


My mother, who works at a local college's library, brought me those three books they just received:
I think I heard about those books (The Vampire Diaries) before, and the story looks similar to Twilight (which I'm absolutely NOT a fan), but I've started reading the first one and it's good so far. We'll see!

FOTD using Annabelle Zebra Bronzing Powder

I was thrilled to try my new Annabelle Zebra Bronzing Powder that I received yesterday (thank you, Isabel!), so I took some pictures to share with you the results.


Face
Annabelle Zebra Bronzing Powder - Haute Gold
Annabelle Blossom Blush - Peachy
Joe Fresh Duo Concealer - Light
Annabelle Satellite Pearl Powder - Celestial Pearl


Eyes
Maybelline Great Lash Clear Mascara (used as eyebrow gel) 
Marcelle Dome Eyeshadow - Tourmaline
Maybelline Great Lash Blackest Black Curved Brush Mascara - Blackest Black

Lips
Vaseline

I like this bronzer. It gives a radiant glow without being overpowing (like Annabelle Mineral Bronzer, which was a little bit too dark for me). It has little shimmers but they only won't make you look like a disco ball. Stay tuned for my upcoming review (I will continue to use it for about a week before reviewing it).

Last week FOTDs + OOTDs + NOTW

Hello! I've been busy with school lately as the end of the semester is coming fast, and I won't have any rest because I'm starting summer classes on May 10 (the semester ends on May 7). I still have 3 exams coming in the following weeks, but one of them doesn't require study as it will be a simple translation from English to French, yey!

Monday of last week was my first real day at school since the strike finally ended after around a month an a half! Yey, I'm finally able to do some constructive things on weekdays LOL.

 This is not really a FOTD as it is the only picture I could snap before leaving the house. I don't even remember what makeup products I was wearing xD


cami: Stitches
vest: Stitches
leggings: eBay
heart-shaped earrings: Ardène
necklace: Giant Tiger
boots: Giant Tiger

I'm totally getting addicted to those leggings! They are perfect for this strange weather (not warm enough for shorts or skirts, but not cold enough for wearing a coat). They are even warmer than my usual skinny jeans!

Tuesday, I played with some of the new Annabelle mineral line products I received to test and review.

  (messy hair... I'm on a no styling tool regiment)

Face
Annabelle Mineral Powder Bronzer - Terra
Annabelle Mineral Powder Blush - Au Naturel
Annabelle Sattelite Pearl Powder - Celestial Pearl
Joe Fresh Duo Concealer - Light
CoverGirl CG Smoothers All Day Hydrating Make-Up - Classic Ivory 710 (used as concealer)


Eyes
Maybelline Great Lash Clear Mascara (used as eyebrow gel) 
Annabelle Mineral Pigment Dust - Myth
Maybelline Expert Wear Eyeshadow Single - Vanilla (used as highligther)
Maybelline Lash Stiletto Mascara - Very Black

Lips
nothing (I had allergies)

skull earrings: Ardène
vest: Stitches


  • Myth is my favourite shades out of the three Mineral Pigment Dusts I had the chance to test. It's such a unique shade! It a gorgeous shimmery gray-brown, depending on the lighting.
  • The Mineral Powder Bronzer is a little hard for me to apply since my CoverGirl Minerals Powder Brush is too large for the jar, but I'm doing better every time. Maybe I should get a Kabuki brush?
  • The Mineral Powder Blush is perfect! Just like its name, it really delivers a natural glow.
  • I'm still not sure how I'm really supposed to use the Sattelite Pearl Powder, but I use it as a highlighter as it gives a really subtle glow.

Friday, I experimented with another of my new Annabelle goodies: Mineral Pigment Dust in Violet Vibe. I had an exam and it was the last time of the semester that I had class on Friday. After school, I met with friends to have dinner at my house. We cooked meat macaroni (is that how you say that in English?) with melted cheese on top. D-e-l-i-c-i-o-u-s!

(excuse my right brow... I over-trimmed it and tried to fill it with eyeshadow because I don't have a matching eyeliner LOL)

Violet Vibe is a greatly pigmented shimmery purple. I might try to use with a black base under it to make it appear darker next time.

I also attempted for the first time to achieve gradiant nails:

without flash

I used:

- Sally Hansen Hard As Nails Xtreme Wear - First Blush
- Sally Hansen Hard As Nails Xtreme Wear - Rockstar Pink
- Sally Hansen Ultimate Shield Fortifying Base & Top Coat


 Of course, it's far from perfect, but it's fun and so simple to do!
