First ColourPop Order

Trying out new purchases from ColourPop

It’s been a really long time since I did a Beauty Blog post, but I figured I’d do a quick run down for my first ColourPop order.

Back around December/January I was seeing a lot of ads for ColourPop, and they were having a pretty nice sale – so I put out the call on my socials to see if anyone I knew had ever bought from them – and… crickets.

Either my post didn’t get seen (thanks algorithm), or no one I knew had ordered from them to give feedback.  In early June, they had another similar sale (not quite as good, but pretty good all the same…) so I figured I’d take the plunge and check it out.

Dreamgirl & Boudoir Eyes

While I was doing a lot of cosmetic shopping at Winners, I first passed up this Boudoir Eyes eyeshadow mini-palette from Two-Faced. I mentioned it to a friend, and she said that she thought I’d like their products – because for pale skin the shades still showed up…

So when I was back at a different Winners, and found it again – I picked it up.

Paris Hilton Cosmetics

While shopping at Winners for other brands, I also saw a few items by Paris Hilton Cosmetics. They looked decent, and the packaging was well-sealed so I wasn’t worried about contamination. I thought I’d share a little bit about them here…

Good news/bad news beauty

Picking out shades of the Lime Crime Diamond Crushers at Winners

Over the last month or so I’ve been scouting the Winners stores in Calgary – looking for beauty products. A friend was super keen on Lime Crime, but since there really aren’t any retailers locally, and I don’t love the idea of ordering makeup entirely online – I was psyched to find the products at Winners, and went HUNTING for more…

One last post specifically about Lime Crime cosmetics I bought from Winners today. I bought three different shades of Diamond Dew; but I’m not nearly as obsessed with them as I am about the Diamond Crushers…
