Spring Makeup Favorites for Dark Skin Women, dark skin blush, dark skin foundation, dark skin lipstick, dark makeup

This post is sponsored by Nordstrom Canada

Spring is finally here and you know what means right? Do some spring cleaning and switch a few things in our makeup bags. I just got rid of a lot of expired beauty products because I never had the opportunity to use them during the pandemic so it’s not only time to restock but also to try some new products.

Have you ever visited the beauty section of Nordstrom, if you haven’t, you should. They have many of the top beauty brands in a wide range of shades and colors. I visit the store to seek the assistance of a Nordstrom beauty advisor when I am ready to try new products but, when it comes to my go-to’s, the site comes in handy.

Summer Wash Day With Target Beauty

June 19, 2021

Do you want to know what I do not have time for this summer? I do not have time for endless hair care routines that take an entire day to complete. The world is opening back up, and I am here a quick and easy wash & go so I can enjoy all that the outdoors have to offer. When it comes to summer hair, I turn to Target to help me achieve my go-to summer look. I’ve found many of my favorite curly hair brands over the years there, and they have one of the best selections.

5 things to know before Shopping for Fragrances

May 15, 2020

Happy Tuesday, loves! How is quarantine life treating you? Anyone else feels like 2020 is a wash at this point? Yeah, me too. I am still hoping that things will get back to normal soon. With that being said, a few days ago, I took a poll on my stories to find out if you guys would be interested in seeing our (me and the husband’s) perfume collection or learn about fragrances in general. Almost 90 percent of you said yes. So here I am with my first post.

Up until recently, I did not know much about fragrances. Like many others, I would walk in the store and pick up a perfume that I thought smelled good and call it a day. Never cared about longevity, ingredients, none of that. That changed when I met my husband. He loves fragrances and has a good collection that will probably last him a decade. I’ve learned so much from him that I want to share it with you all. This post will cover some of the basics you should know before venturing out to get your next fragrance. Hopefully, It will give you a glimpse into the wonderful world of scents.

3 Foundations For Dark Skin Tones I am loving right now

February 13, 2019

One of the most fun parts of what I do is being able to try so many new makeup products throughout the year. I definitely have more makeup and skincare products that I can use in a lifetime. Even with the daily packages, one thing I still invest my money in is a good foundation. Even with the recent extension of many lines to add more shades, finding the perfect shade for darker skin tones is still a bit of a challenge.

Quick and Easy Evening Skincare Routine

Quick and Easy Evening Skincare Routine.- Canadian beauty blogger

Happy Monday loves! Last week, I took over the Insta Stories of Shoppers Drugmart to share my quick and easy skin care routine. Talk about going through all kind of emotions. I am super nervous everytime I step in front of a camera to tape a video. Thankfully everything went well and the feedback from those who follow my stories have been positive. For those who missed the broadcast, I thought it would be nice to write a blog post to share all the details. The evening skincare routine I am about to share is for every woman who is living a busy life. If your evening skincare requires a lot of products and steps, nothing wrong with that. On Sundays, there are a few extra steps I take, since I have a little bit more time. Read More »

4 perfect Fall Lipsticks For Dark Skin Women

Fall Lipsticks For Dark Skin Women- Assa Cisse

I must admit, I love creating these lipstick posts. It’s not because of my lipstick obsession, but because I always find one or two that I have not worn in a while. Today’s post is all about Fall lipstick options that are perfect for dark skin tones.  Whether it’s Fall or not, I tend to gravitate toward darker lipstick shades. It doesn’t mean that darker shades are better on dark skin, just a personal choice. The darker the color the more drama it adds to your face. The options are endless and picking only four out my collection was not easy. Read More »

July 30, 2017

Raise your hand if you are not a fan of humidity. Yeah ! Me either. Those of us with very oily skin have it worse (insert shiny face). Going out in the morning and coming home at night looking like you’ve been dipped in shea butter. Not a good look.

Luckily, I found some amazing products to keep my skin happy during the hot summer months. The good news is all of them are available just a click away on your favorite of site Amazon.ca Read More »
