SUNNIES MOOD

Each year in Montreal it's the same thing: spring takes way too much time to come. While waiting for hotter and sunnier days, we always all get that tendency to dream on radiant pictures of sandals and other items that we couldn't wear for 5 long frozen months.
On a personal side, it seems like I can't get over sunnies. I just can't. And it also looks like this summer I'm probably going to wear colorful stuffs FOR ONCE.

So today I'm going to present you the sunnies that I can't stop thinking about, even in my deepest sleep. I'm pretty sure you guys can understand that I'm currently obsessed with cat eyes............ Just a bit.

And please note that I didn't order the sunnies by preferences and that we are not here to pay attention to the prices that can be sometimes not affordable for a student wallet but to think "I wish I had these" and happily sigh. 


Have a great week,

// Comme chaque année, le printemps se fait désirer dans notre belle ville qu'est Montréal. En 
attendant des jours plus chauds, nous avons tous cette petite tendance à saliver devant des images rayonnantes de sandales et autres items qui nous ont été impossible de porter durant un bon gros 5 mois.
En ce qui me concerne, on dirait que j'ai décidé de faire une fixation sur les lunettes de soleil. Et on dirait aussi que ÉTONNAMENT mon été va comporter des couleurs (histoire de contraster avec tout les couleurs neutres que je porte).

Je vous présente donc aujourd'hui une sélection de lunettes de soleil qui me pourchassent jusque dans mon sommeil, et ce depuis 2 semaines. Je pense qu'il est assez clair ici que les cat eyes m'obsèdent très légèrement...........

Notez qu'il n'y a aucun ordre de préférence et que nous ne sommes pas là pour regarder les prix parfois un peu élevés pour un budget étudiant mais bien pour rêvasser les ptits zamis.



Bonne semaine,
Sol.

ANOTHER BRICK IN THE WALL








 Sweater: Monki
Sunnies: H&M
Skirt: American Apparel
Shoes: Thrash_UNIF

Yaaaay finally had time to shoot an outfit! The weather yesterday was quite nice and warm (5 degrees wooot) so I decided to wear a skirt. I obviously put on 2 pair of tights because I'm the most cold sensitive person in the world.

I absolutely love this outfit it's so edgy, and I like how the pictures turned out!!
Hope you guys like it too :))

// Yaaaay j'ai finalement eu le temps de prendre des photos! Il faisait vraiment beau hier, et même chaud (si je peux me permettre d'utiliser ce terme pour décrire du 5 degrés), ce qui m'a motivé à porter une jupe. Évidemment on le devine tous, j'ai mis 2 paires de collants parce que je suis la personne la plus frileuse au monde.

En tous cas, j'aime pas mal beaucoup cette tenue bien edgy, et surtout comment ces photos ont tourné!!
J'espère que ça vous plait aussi :))

Make-up routine

Hi there!

It's been a while since I've posted and I apologize for it, but I'm terribly busy with my job, my internship and uni. I will do my best to post once a week when spring will be on Montreal I promise. I have tons of projects and things I want to share with you guys and I'm so excited about making them real!

In a previous post I talked about making a make-up routine video, and here it is! I actually filmed it a month ago but I never had time to edit it until now.
This is how I do my make-up but I'm not gonna lie to you. I am not a morning person. I basically never have time to put some make-up on before rushing to uni. I usually take 30 sec to put foundation on and that's it. I just feel like the most important thing to do in order to look alive after a short night is to have a good looking skin.
This time I did a pretty sharp eyeliner line for a more casual look but I like it better when it's larger because it gives a more dramatic and edgy look.

(watch it in HD!)

Products used: 
Naked Skin foundation + Sigma foundation brush
Garnier Concealer + RealTechniques flat foundation brush
Sephora gel eyeliner + MAC angled brush
Maybeline eye shadow (only low quality cosmetic that I own) + Bamboo angled brush
MAC bronzing powder + Lancôme brush
Bobby Brown blush + .Quo brush

Here's a cute lil picture of my most recent products and brushes. As you can see these are pretty much expensive products. I just feel like using products from renowned brands presents less risks of being exposed to ingredients that could be bad for your health or of less quality. I always go for quality in cosmetics.


If you're curious about what I think of my new products, I did reallyyy short reviews:

Urban Decay Naked skin foundation : Seriously the best foundation I've ever had. It makes the skin look smooth and is barely not noticeable. And is PARABEN FREE.

Sigma foundation brush: a-ma-zing. So soft. Doesn't absorb the product AT ALL. It's still white even if I've been using it for months.

Amazonian clay full coverage airbrush foundation: I use it less often than the other one because it is longer to put on. I just don't think that the way it works with the little fishnet is the best. However I believe this is a great product. It melts perfectly on the skin and is also barely noticeable. So if you are more powder foundation, this one is great. 

MAC bronzing powder: I like it a lot but I'm pretty sure you could find one that would last longer on the skin. 

Sephora gel eyeliner: Much better than expected. I really wanted to give a try to gel eyeliner and I must admit it takes a few times before mastering the art of putting eyeliner with a brush but once you got it it's amazing! I used liquid eyeliner for years, which wasn't bad, but struggling with the Gosh eyeliner pen disgusted me from this kind of products. Seriously, don't ever buy it. I dries while using it and after a few days you'll need to put water on to make it work. So if you've already mastered the art of liquid eyeliner and if you're patient enough, give a try to a gel eyeliner :)

MAC liner brush: Pretty sure you could find one that'll do a better job for a lower price, but it's still a good brush. I just feel like it's not sharp enough.

 L'Oréal Brow pencil: I'm not sure to own this exact same product but it's basically the same. It's really easy to use but once again if you've never done your brows before you'll have to give it a few tries before mastering the art.

RealTechniques travel essentials : love them, especially because they come with a travel pocket. There are amazingly soft and of great quality (and good looking!).



Thank you for reading and watching :) Let me know if you have any product to recomand me!
