Polish Review: Revlon's Mad About Mango

Hey everyone!

I am back with a new Polish Review. Surprise Surprise! It's another Revlon nail polish! This time I thought to show you one of my favourite nail polish colours for spring time, that i wear through the spring and summer months.  It was from the limited edition collection of scented polishes, the first one they had out, and it is called Mad about Mango. First off, i think the idea of having scented nail polishes was cleaver but actually I don't like very much the scent of artificial mangoes...it just doesn't make justice to the real fruit. Scent apart, The colour is so pretty, it's a corall-y sort of red-ish colour going to the side of bright neon orange. Here is a picture of what it looks like: 


It is a fun colour to rock and it just makes you feel more confident about yourself and your appearance. It's not necessary for me to say this, because you all know how I feel about this brand, It is very lasting and it chips not so easily and has great pigmentation, the only side note here is that to get a very rich colour you need to do 3 coats to really appreciate it. 

I hope you have a great day!

Beauty Vlogger Boot Camp: The Beginning

Hey Everyone! 

Beauty Vlogger Boot Camp is a new reality airing via YouTube in the channel of ulookhaute. It is hosted by Elle and Blair Fowler and is one of those shows in which people tell other people how to become what they are aspiring to do. 

Today   is the first episode and they had a really interesting Challenge, Do your Makeup with no mirror! you heard right, NO mirror AND it had to be done in 3 minutes or less. This sounds crazy but when you are in a reality tough things should be done to show skill and how professional you can be. The contestants are a very varied group of people, I was not expecting that they would allow guys in the competition and was a bit awkward, in my opinion, asking them to do their makeup... but everything in fashion and beauty is acceptable if you truly love it despite your gender or political views right? Don't take me wrong but I was expecting it to be just for girls that wanted to be immersed in the vlogging duty to show their skills and share their tips and tricks. 

Lets talk about the hosts and judges of the competition. They were the ones who gave the challenges and they are the ones in charge in judging how the contestants/participants did in each challenge from now on, they are the ones who make the decision on which participant didn't do as well as the other and that person has to go home. It's not an easy job to go around telling people that they are not good enough and I felt like Elle and Blair were having such a rough time at it. While judging you have to be completely honest and tell what you are seeing. Truth hurts right? I think people should not get into a competition if they can't handle this painful reality. But these girls I feel did a great job and looked just FAB while doing so. 

On to the prices, which is the most exiting part of it all, A collection of clothes and accessories sponsored by JustFab, Makeup from Dermstore,their own series on ULookHaute and a cash price (which they don't say the amount of it). They are all really great prices and makes sense for a beauty vlogger to get those prices. 

Over all, I think the reality is going to be filled with great moments and a lot of drama, which is a special ingredient for every reality/competition program. 

Have a great day and don't miss the Premier of the Reality Competition, Beauty Vlogger Boot Camp! (click on the image to go to the video)

Happy Monday! Yummy Foods, pretty flowers and cute puppies

Hey everyone! 

I hope your Day has been amazing and just really jump-started your week with a lot of energy and nice thoughts. Yesterday I had to study for my first Finance class test and I think I did pretty good on it. I have a 10 min. bridge right now before I head on to class. 

Lets get this post started. (well I think I already did, but lets get to the important part)

Today I ate a really good and home-made spring spaghetti with Parmesan  cheese and for dessert I had a cheese cake sort-of cake with orange jelly on top. It was so good and healthy which is the best part. Well the dessert might have been the unhealthy part of it, but it's ok to have a small piece and not deprive yourself. 

Earlier in the morning, I was walking to class and found some pretty flowers on the side of the street and loved them, unfortunately I didn't had my camera with me but I will insert a picture sometime this week. 

And as my day is coming to an end, sleepy puppies are the best thing to smile at and make you feel a lot less stressed. 


Aren't they so so cute? little cupcakes of love <3 (Queenie & Cinderella) 

I hope you have a great week!
