FOTD + OOTD: Tell me what you want so we can do just what you like

I recently started working as a sales person at a clothing boutique at my local mall (I won't discolse the name here, I don't want any problem, but if you really want yo know, you can tweet me) and I love it so far, it's very different from my previous jobs but I'm always up for new aventures and challenges!

The employees have a dress code to follow and I'm actually enjoying having to get dressed up for work - and we are also required to wear lipstick or lipgloss, which is cool because I don't have lots of occasions to wear lipsticks and I have so many! So here are my FOTD and OOTD for my second day at work.

Halloween FOTN + OOTN: & I don't ever ever want to grow up I want to keep it going, keep keep it going come on

Can you guess what was my Halloween costume this year?

That's right... I was Pikachu!

Of course, I was working before the party and when I came home (one hour later than what I was planning), I was in a rush and I didn't have the time to do anything over the top makeup-wise, hence why I don't have any proper picture to show you. I have cropped some semi-decent pictures though, and I hope you will be able to get the idea.

I didn't really have a sepcific idea in mind and I didn't find lots of inspiration on the net so I decided to do something simple but still a little more dramatic than my everyday makeup. I wanted something yellow but of course, I didn't have anything yellow in my stash! I rumaged through my mother's makeup and found the Annabelle Studio 4Show Eyeshadow in Eye-Candy that I gave her some times ago and even though I had to really dig the eyeshadow and even wet my brush for it to properly show on my lid, it still appeared more gold than yellow but, oh well! Then I added some black eyeshadow and eyeliner for definition and ta-dah!

For the cheeks, I used a GOSH lipstick which was a really bad idea because even though I applied loose powder on top to set it, it was a sticky mess and it eventually melted and rubbed off. For the nose, I used the same Maybelline eyliner that I used on my eyes, and it wasn't a great idea either because it rubbed off on everything - and everyone - I touched. Oh well!

Melting cheeks and nose

My costume was quite simple too - it didn't cost me a thing! I simply used things I already had and I cut the ears and tails in cereal boxes.

This is NOT a camel toe, it's a crease!

Yellow tank - Forever21 | Yellow bikini bottom - Wal-Mart | Brown thigths - borrowed from my mother | Lightning earrings - Ardène

Of course, my costume was not complete without a proper manicure, and I got this super cute idea from Holly Ann-Aeree:

Avon Nailwear Pro Nail Enamel - Sunshine

Sally Hansen Nail Art Pen - Red*

Essie Nail Polish - Really Red

Sally Hansen Insta-Dry Anti-Chip Top Coat*

It wasn't a big party but it was fun! We ate, drank, danced and played Twister... have you tried playing Twister with drunk people?

A vegetarian plate for me - bread with melted Brie, vegetable mashed potatoes and salad, yum!

Fred the Jedi, Véro and me dancing... LOL

* Product tested on animals. You may (or may not) be aware that Gaby's Beauty Blog recently went cruelty-free. However, I hope it's understandable that I can't simply throw away the products I have previously purchased that have unfortunately been tested on animals - believe me, I wouldn't hesitate if I were rich! My goal is to use up those products but not repurchase them in the future. Also, Gaby's Beauty Blog will no longer accept for review purposes products that have been tested on animals.

FOTD + OOTD: You had a lot of crooks tryna steal your heart, never really had luck, couldn’t never figure out how to love

I've been requested a look using MAC Surf Baby Cheek Powder in My Paradise that I recently won in Michelle's 100 followers giveaway (thank you again Michelle!) and I couldn't wait to show you how gorgeous it is!

Face

OLAY Regenerist Eye Touch of Concealer Eye Regenerating Cream *

Marcelle Concealer Palette - Universal Beige

Benefit That Gal Brightening Face Primer *

Sheer Cover Mineral Foundation SPF 15 - Bisque *

Annabelle Zebra Bronzing Powder - Haute Gold

MAC Surf Baby Cheek Powder - My Paradise

Eyes

L'Oréal Voluminous Carbon Black *

Too Faced Eye Shadow - Sitcom Siren

Lips

Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick - Pink In The Afternoon

L - R: only the blush color, only the overspray, both blended together

As I mentionned above, the sole purpose of this FOTD was to show you how gorgeous My Paradise looked once applied on the cheeks... but of course I forgot to take proper pictures before leaving for school, so I had to rush to take pictures with my phone once in my car, hence the crappy quality. I hope you can still see how gorgeous and shimmery it is? I have found the glitters to be quite chunky and hard to blend but I love how they tone down the blush a bit, because it's super pigmented.

FOTD + OOTD: Girl my body don't lie, I'm outta my mind, let it rain over me

My first day of Uni was on September 1st so this post is a little late but it's better late than never, don't you think? Oh and I'm not that pale in person, I blame the flash and the stupid cloudy weather we've had lately! Maybe it's time to fake tan?

FOTD + OOTD: The scars of your love they leave me breathless, I can't help feeling we could of had it all

I realize I don't post FOTDs or OOTDs often on here and I don't really have a proper reason besides lazyness. I must admit I never thought my makeup looks or outfits could be of any interest as I mostly stick with basic and neutral looks - boring much? - but these types of posts seem to be very popular on the blogosphere.

Anyway, I had a job interview two weeks ago (I got the job, yey!) and for once, I was not in a rush and I had the time to take proper pictures!

OOTD: Should of known you was trouble from the first kiss, had your eyes wide open - why were they open?

Just a very quick and simple OOTD of my last day of Uni before the holidays. I think this is the outfit I will also wear on New Year's Eve.

Tunic: L'Aubainerie Entrepôt

Leggings: eBay

Oh and I've been told I have J. Lo's butt in this tunic... I guess it's a compliment? LOL.

black cami: Jean Bleu

leggings: eBay

necklace: Etsy

And on my nails, it's Superstar Nail Lacquer in Uptown Girl:

I got it as a prize from Celly's giveaway. I haven't seen something like this before, it's so pretty!

FOTD & OOTD: Geneviève & Donald's wedding

Saturday, my friends and I gathered together to celebrate our friends Geneviève and Donald's wedding, and I wanted to share some pictures with you.

The wedding was celebrated in a church somewhere in Laval, but I don't remember which one it was. The reception was held at Buffet Il Gabbiano, which is where my friends and I celebrated our prom!

Unfortunately, I absolutely didn't have the time to snap some close-up pictures of my makeup, but it was a basic gold and brown smokey eye - just like I always do (=

The bride and the groom

We have known Gen since high school, so it's great to still be in touch with her and to have the chance to be with here in this very special day. Donald is also a great and funny guy!

I got this dress from Winner for only $25!

I tried to find pictures of the back of my dress, and those are the only ones I found.

Strapless dresses are so annoying, but I couldn't resist this one... especially in this color! I also wore some bracelets and earrings (the same the bride wore!) that I borrowed from my mother, along with a simple necklace I got from Etsy. I wanted all the attention to be on the dress!
