<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Makeup collections and beauty hauls aside, one of the things I really enjoy reading on other beauty blogs is blogger tag posts. I was recently tagged to complete this really fun Beauty Blogger Tag by my close friend over at <a href="http://glossedbeauty.com/">Glossed Beauty</a>! (She has a great blog that you should all totally check out ASAP!) This is my first time completing a tag, and I'm excited for you to get to know a little more about me, the blogger behind <a href="http://simplyblushed.com/">Simply Blushed</a>.</span></div>

</span></span></span><br />
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">I absolutely have to wash my hair every day (except for days where I have a bad cold and just stay in bed all day). I know washing my hair daily isn't very good, and it is a habit I'd like to work on breaking soon. </span></span></li>

<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">I leave the mani/pedi to the professionals, and visit the salon when I feel the need to treat myself!</span></span></li>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><br />
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">With school and work, it's difficult to find the time to put on nail polish, but when I do, I usually stick to similar designs while changing colors once a week. </span></span></li>

just in the summer?</i></b></span></span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><br />
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">I only polish my toes in the summer since I'm always in flip flops or sandals. </span></span></li>
</ul>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><br />
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">The fastest that I've ever put makeup on is 8 minutes (including mineral foundation, concealer, blush, bronzer, mascara, lipstick, eyeliner). When I'm going out or want to do my entire makeup routine (adding face primer, liquid foundation, highlighter, gel liner, more detailed contouring, eyeshadow primer, eyeshadow, filling brows, setting makeup in addition to the other steps I mentioned for my 8 minute routine) it can take anywhere between 25 and 35 minutes.</span></span></li>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span>
<br />
<ul>
<li>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">I always start with my face and leave the eyes as the last step in my makeup routine.</span></span></li>

what you need when you need it?</i></b></span></span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><br />
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">I have to say it's a little bit of both for me, but more leaning towards collecting makeup. There are so many products out there that I want to try. I'm always on the hunt for the perfect mascara and have yet to find it, although there are a few brands that come close. I do buy makeup when I need it like when I run out of liquid foundation and concealer, but as you may have seen in my collection posts, I own more than enough of the other categories to last for years. In all fairness, I am working to reduce my collection before going out to buy more.</span></span></li>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><br />
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">I've tried Sephora and E.L.F. lashes, and failed miserably at putting them on each time. I'll have to practice before I decide to walk out in public with false eyelashes.</span></span></li>

<li><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">

<ul style="text-align: justify;">

</span></span><br />
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">I don't bother planning my OOTD beforehand, because when I wake up the next day, I'd always change my mind. I just decide my outfit when I'm getting dressed, and often change pieces 3-4 times before finalizing my outfit. </span></span></li>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">Today
I will be sharing Part 3 of my updated makeup collection and storage.
This post will showcase all makeup products that are found in my
5-drawer Muji Acrylic Storage Unit for 'EYES'. This includes both
high-end and drugstore eyeshadows, eyeshadow primers, mascaras, eye liners, gel liners, and brow products. </span></span></div>

I begin, I would like to include the same disclaimer as I did within the others:</span></span><br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">I would just like to mention that in no way am I creating this
post to brag. I do acknowledge that I own more makeup than I'll ever
need; however, I'm always on the lookout to try out new products. That
being said, makeup is one of my hobbies and my collection has grown over
the last two years. I did purchase the majority of the products that
are in my makeup collection, and the rest was given to me as gifts from
friends and family. </span><span style="font-size: small;">I'm creating this post so that I could
share with you how I store most of my makeup, and I'm hoping that this post will
help those who would like new storage ideas for their makeup
collection.</span></span></blockquote>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">Hello fellow makeup lovers!</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">Today
I will be sharing Part 2 of my updated makeup collection and storage.
This post will showcase all makeup products that are found in my
5-drawer and 2-drawer Muji Acrylic Storage Units for my 'FACE'. This includes both
high-end and drugstore foundations, concealers, face primers, pressed and mineral powders, blushes, bronzers, and highlighters.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">Before
I begin, I would like to include the same disclaimer as I did within Part 1:</span></span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">I would just like to mention that in no way am I creating this
post to brag. I do acknowledge that I own more makeup than I'll ever
need; however, I'm always on the lookout to try out new products. That
being said, makeup is one of my hobbies and my collection has grown over
the last two years. I did purchase the majority of the products that
are in my makeup collection, and the rest was given to me as gifts from
friends and family. </span><span style="font-size: small;">I'm creating this post so that I could
share with you how I store most of my makeup, and I'm hoping that this post will
help those who would like new storage ideas for their makeup
collection.</span></span></blockquote>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">Hello fellow makeup lovers!</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">Today I will be sharing Part 1 of my updated makeup collection and storage. This post will showcase all makeup products that are found in my 5-drawer Muji Acrylic Storage Unit for 'LIPS'. This includes both high-end and drugstore lipstick, lipgloss, lip balms, lip butter, lip liners, and lip tints/stains.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">Before
I begin, I would like to include the same disclaimer as I did within my first Makeup Collection post:</span></span><br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">I would just like to mention that in no way am I creating this
post to brag. I do acknowledge that I own more makeup than I'll ever
need; however, I'm always on the lookout to try out new products. That
being said, makeup is one of my hobbies and my collection has grown over
the last two years. I did purchase the majority of the products that
are in my makeup collection, and the rest was given to me as gifts from
friends and family. </span><span style="font-size: small;">I'm creating this post so that I could
share with you how I store most of my makeup, and I'm hoping that this post will
help those who would like new storage ideas for their makeup
collection.</span></span></blockquote>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">I also have a detailed review for the Muji Acrylic Drawer Units on the blog if you're interested in reading that!</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">Hello fellow makeup lovers! </span></span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">Today I will be sharing my product review for the Muji Acrylic Storage Units.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">For those of you who are not familiar with the Muji drawers, they are clear acrylic storage units that come in a variety of sizes. You can find these units on the Muji website here: <a href="http://www.muji.us/store/storage/acrylic-cases.html">Muji Acrylic Storage Units</a>. I'll also link to the specific Muji drawers that I own further below.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">These storage units have been on my wishlist for the last two years, as many youtubers and beauty bloggers have been raving about their quality, durability, and attractive characteristics. I also wanted these storage units as they wouldn't take up too much space, they would allow me</span><span style="font-size: small;"> to see all my makeup, and they would encourage me to use the products that I already own before going out to purchase more. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">After two years of wanting these drawers, I received the </span><span style="font-size: small;">Muji Acrylic Storage Units for Christmas from my amazing boyfriend! As you can imagine, I was very excited to unwrap these drawers and start re-organizing my makeup collection. Re-organizing my makeup collection was actually quite difficult as I needed to convince myself to let go of quite a few of my beauty products as I owned substantially more products than I needed. This storage system made me see just how out of control my collection became, and after getting rid of a lot, I was very satisfied with the end result. <br /><br />For those of you interested in seeing my updated makeup collection, I will split the posts in 3 parts beginning with Lip Products over the next three days.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">The <span style="font-family: inherit;">Muji Acrylic Storage Units </span><span style="font-family: inherit;">are durable and high-quality products.

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Makeup lovers looking to decrease or increase their makeup collection and searching for an attractive and affordable storage system, look no further!<span style="font-family: inherit;"> I'm still kicking myself for waiting so long to get my hands on these drawers, and I must say, the </span><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Muji Acrylic Storage Units</span>are definitely worth the wait!</span></span></span>

<span style="font-size: small;">Today I'll be sharing my thoughts on products that I've used up for the month of November. This is my first beauty product empties post on the blog, and I'm very excited to be sharing this with all of you. I really like the idea of sharing monthly product empties as it is a great way motivate people to finish up products they own or try something new in their collections. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">For this post, I decided to number the products to avoid making this post too long<span style="font-size: small;">.</span> Please feel free to let me know if you'd rather I take individual pictures of the products for future 'empties' posts<span style="font-size: small;">!</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: small;"> </span> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;">*Disclaimer: All of the products within this post were purchased by me, with my own money.*</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />Ready to see my November Empties?</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">As I've already mentioned once before on my blog, I'm a huge fan of Lush's Fresh Face
Masks. I've tried most of their Fresh Face Masks and my favorite two would have to be the ones I will mention here today. Here's a brief description from the Lush website for <b><a href="http://www.lush.ca/Catastrophe-Cosmetic/06093,en_CA,pd.html">Catastrophe Cosmetic</a></b>: </span>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">For those of you who have not previously tried out the Lush Fresh Face Masks, they <span style="font-size: small;">retail</span> for $6.95 each, and they come in individual black pots with 60g (2.1 oz) of
product. Depending on how much you put on your face each time you apply the mask, one container can hold 3-4 applications. Similar to MAC, Lush also has a "Back to Lush" program where you can return 5
empty black pots in store and exchange them for a free mask! As you can see, I go through my masks pretty quickly because they expire within 30 days of purchasing them due to the ingredients. I would definitely highly recommend Lush Fresh Face Masks!!! </span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><b>3. E.L.F. <a href="http://www.eyeslipsface.com/studio/lips/lip_balm/studio_lip_balm">Studio Conditioning Lip Balm SPF 15</a> in <span id="goog_1537185491"></span>Mellow Mellon (26 oz) </b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">I'm a big fan of E.L.F.'s studio collection and own nearly all of their studio line products. I currently own all of the E.L.F. Studio Conditioning Lip Balms as they are all very pigmented, I prefer Mellow Mellon because it's the perfect shade that's more subtle and is best for all the seasons. It isn't very long lasting on the lips, but there is a ton of product within the container and it does prevent lips from becoming chapped. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Here's a brief description of the product from the E.L.F. website: </span></div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">"With the e.l.f. Conditioning Lip Balm, lips get treated to a sheer
splash of color that's super smooth, velvety soft and non-sticky. Not
only are these sheer, natural shades beautiful, they're also beneficial,
with natural ingredients that condition dry, chapped lips including
Vitamins A & E. SPF 15 to protect delicate lips against harmful sun
damage."</span></div>
</blockquote>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"> At $3, the E.L.F. Studio Conditioning Lip Balm is definitely a great product worth trying out.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">I saw this product on my way to the Sephora checkout counter on their cash wraps and I'm so glad I picked this up! This product retails for $6 in this specific sample size. It smells like pomegranate, one of their main ingredients, and I have definitely noticed a whiter smile after having finished using up the product. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Here's a brief description of the product from the Sephora website: </span></div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">"A whitening toothpaste enriched with antioxidants and vitamins to promote a healthier, brighter smile."</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">I purchased this product from an Avon catalog. It retails for $7.99, however, I bought it on sale for less than $2. Unlike most of the products in this empties post, this is definitely a product that I DID NOT LIKE. The smell is overpowering and gave me a headache. It really doesn't really do anything at all except for discoloring water. Just after one use I decided not to use it again. </span></div>

As I mentioned earlier, I have extremely sensitive skin, and this product works very well for me, even with the willowbark in it. It has a nice cooling sensation on the skin that lasts a few minutes after rinsing off and definitely leaves my skin feeling very smooth. As it is pretty expensive here in Canada, I always wait until I visit the <span style="font-size: small;">U.S<span style="font-size: small;">. and buy it for $8 at Target.</span></span></span></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Here's a brief description of the product from the BURT'S BEES website: </span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;">"Keep your skin peachy clean. This natural sulfate-free facial cleanser
rich with finely ground peach stone naturally and gently exfoliates to
remove excess oil, dirt and dead skin cells leaving skin soft and
smooth. Willow bark and golden seal extracts, known for their astringent
properties, and ginger and sea algae extracts help to revitalize your
skin and replenish essential minerals, leaving your face deeply clean
and naturally nourished." </span></div>

I'm still on the search to find the 'perfect' mascara for me, but this one definitely comes close. Although this is a brand you can find at most drugstores, I would definitely categorize it as a higher end product at an affordable $12.50 price tag. I received this product in a GlossyBox this summer and I'm so happy that I had a chance to try it out. It definitely lengthens and separates my lashes perfectly. I also really like that it's hypo-allergetic and perfume free.</span></div>

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><u><b>How to become a Sephora VIB Beauty Insider Member:</b></u></span><br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><b>From the </b><b>SEPHORA Website:</b> <i>"EARN VIB STATUS BY SPENDING $350 AT A SEPHORA STORE, SEPHORA.COM,
SEPHORA.CA, OR IN A SEPHORA INSIDE JCPENNEY WITHIN A CALENDAR YEAR
(JANUARY-DECEMBER). VIB STATUS IS GOOD FOR THE CALENDAR YEAR IN WHICH
THE BI MEMBER QUALIFIES AND THE FOLLOWING CALENDAR YEAR; ANNUAL
REQUALIFICATION IS REQUIRED."</i></span> </div>
</blockquote>
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><u><b>What this means:</b></u></span><br />
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li><span style="font-size: small;">If you spend $350 at any SEPHORA location or online website within one calendar year (from January-December of the same year), you will qualify to become a SEPHORA VIB Beauty Insider. This status will begin the second you have met the qualifications and will last until the end of the following calendar year. <b>For example: </b>If you've placed a mixture of online and in store purchases (also just online or just in store purchases) that total $350 at March 5, 2012 from January 1, 2012, you will be a VIB Beauty Insider at that date that all your purchases from January 1, 2012 add up to $350, (March 5, 2012) and your status as a VIB Beauty Insider will last until the end of the following calendar year, December 31, 2013. <span style="font-size: small;"></span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">To continue with the above example, in order to keep your VIB Beauty Insider status in 2014, you must then make sure that you spend another $350 (total of all SEPHORA purchases) throughout the following calendar year (January 1, 2013 - December 31, 2013). This is the annual requalification requirement by SEPHORA.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>*IMPORTANT* The $350 excludes the purchase of gift cards.</b></span> </span></li>
</ul>
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><u><b>What do you get as a SEPHORA VIB Beauty Insider:</b></u></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span>
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="font-size: small;">All SEPHORA VIB Beauty Insiders will receive a Welcome Kit that includes the following three items:</span><br />
<ul>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: large;">My Overall Impressions of the VIB Beauty Insider Program:</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: small;">In only two weeks of becoming a VIB Beauty Insider, I've received access to quite a few beauty deals already, including in-store discounts and exclusive samples. (SEPHORA haul posts to come). I definitely think that becoming a VIB Beauty Insider is worth it because of the great deals being offered to VIBs only. So, if you're shopping at your local drug store for Smashbox or Benefit items, why not shop for them at SEPHORA and accumulate points to become a VIB Beauty Insider? I think it's also important to mention that just because you forget your regular or VIB Beauty Insider card at home when you're shopping at SEPHORA, you can always tell the cashier the email associated to your card so that you can still receive your points! Also, just because you may have more than 350 points on your card, doesn't mean that you qualify for the VIB Beauty Insider program as you must have spent the money on purchases (non gift card related) within one calendar year.</span> </span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;">Now that winter has arrived, our glamorous summer tans have begun to fade which means that it's time to update our foundation routines. In my case, I have to purchase all my <span style="font-size: small;">foun<span style="font-size: small;">dation and con<span style="font-size: small;">cealer</span></span></span> products in one shade lighter than what I normally wear during the summer. I also make the switch from mineral foundation which I normally use on hot summer days, to liquid foundation during the fall and winter seasons. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Pharmaprix, a Canadian drugstore also known as Shoppers Drug Mart, <span style="font-size: small;">is currently </span>having a promotion in which for every $50 purchase, customers would receive a $10 gift card to use for their next purchase. This promotion couldn't have come at a better time seeing as I was running low on my favorite Bourjois liquid foundation. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;">The Healthy Balance Unifying Powder is a new favorite Bourjois product of mine. This is my first time purchasing this product, which is also new to the Bourjois collection, and I was definitely impressed with the quality. This pressed powder is great to set the Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum Gel Foundation, and gives an long-lasting matte and natural complexion. I'm actually tempted to go out and buy a second one (that's how much I love it!) What I also really like about this product is that it can easily fit in my purse in case I ever want to make any touch ups throughout the day.</span> </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: small;">In addition to the Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum Gel Foundation and Healthy Balance Unifying Powder, I also purchased the Healthy Mix Radiance & Anti-Fatigue Correcting Concealer. Since I use the gel foundation in the shade 52, the best shade to get for the concealer would be a shade lighter (51 - Eclat Claire) as I have very dark circles under my eyes. This concealer gives excellent coverage with my dark circles, and is also long-lasting. This is definitely another new Bourjois favorite of mine! With the promotion going on in store, as the other two items added to a little over $50, I received a $10 gift card and was able to apply it on this concealer!</span></span></div>

For $12 a month, subscribers will receive 4 deluxe beauty samples or at times 3 deluxe beauty samples and a full-sized product will be included as the fourth product within the tube.</span> </div>

<span style="font-size: small;">Before I continue, I just want to take a moment to disclose that I have not received any monetary compensation for this post. I am a </span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: small;">Topbox </span></span></span>subscriber and I pay for the monthly tubes with my own money.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;">After having been on the waiting list since April, I was really disappointed with the October Edition as my first Topbox tube.

<span style="font-size: large;">My Overall Impressions for the Topbox November Edition:</span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Overall, I am very happy with two of the four products within this month's Topbox tube. I know that I'll have great use for the nail polish and mascara. As for the other two products, I'll most likely pass them on to a friend that I know will enjoy them. I'm still torn on deciding whether I should remain as a Topbox subscriber, and I may possibly stay just for one more month and cancel after I receive the December Edition. Hopefully, Topbox will include some nice goodies for the holidays.</span></div>

I gave this product several tries and wasn't able to master a good technique of applying just the right amount of this product as I either put too little or too much and I often found myself removing it completely and using something else. Overall, this shade is gorgeous when swatching, however, I just don't think that I'll be using it again unless I find a good use for it.

My skepticism stemmed from the product not being in powder form, so I was worried about it being too sticky or coming off way too pigmented on the skin. After trying out the product, I was glad that the sticky/wet sensation only lasted for a few seconds and it then dried into a powder looking effect. I also liked that it wasn't too pigmented and the product can be built up to look darker as you apply more. Overall, I'm still not completely sold on it but I'm definitely willing to try it out more. </span></td></tr>

<span style="font-size: large;">My Overall Impressions:</span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;">O<span style="font-size: small;">ne
of my favorite aspects of the SEPHORA FAVORITES - In The Glow Sample Set, is that there is a great variety of higher end products within this set. Like I mentioned above, this is great for
makeup lovers to try out all these different brands
before committing to their full sizes which can be quite expensive. When purchasing a full-sized higher end product without having tested it out before, there is the added risk that you may not like the product even with its rave reviews, and the product will end up going to waste. As a total blush, bronzer, and highlighter junkie, this sample set was definitely on my radar the second it became available. I ended up really liking the most of the products within this sample set that have also become my new favorites that I would have otherwise not tried out had I not purchased this set. Any products that I didn't enjoy, I'll be giving away to friends who I know will enjoy them. Overall, I would definitely recommend makeup lovers to purchase the SEPHORA FAVORITES - In The Glow Sample Set while it's still available!</span></span> </blockquote>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: large;">My Overall First Impressions:</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;">One of my favorite aspects of the Sephora Favorites Lash Stash Kit, is that makeup lovers get to try out all these different higher end brands before committing to their full sizes. I also really appreciate that there are two full sized products within this kit, including smashbox Full Exposure Mascara which retails for $22 Canadian and Beautenizer Fiberwig which retails for $29 Canadian, and that the rest of the products are genuine deluxe samples. Buxom is my favorite mascara to date and having it included within this kit was definitely a bonus for me. The main reason for purchasing this kit was that I've heard great things about the other higher end brands and was curious to try them out for myself. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;">Although mascaras generally expire between 3-6 months after being opened, mascaras can be the main product within people's makeup collections that will continuously change throughout the year. I personally change my mascara quite often, even before they expire simply for hygiene purposes. I would definitely recommend this kit for those who want to try out more products before committing to their full sizes which can be quite pricey, and for those who change mascara as often as I do. </span></blockquote>

<span style="font-size: small;">Over the last year, MAC has definitely become one of my most reached for brands within my makeup collection. The more that I experiment with MAC products, the more I<span style="font-size: small;"> love the<span style="font-size: small;"> brand</span></span>. The products are long-lasting, they give great pigment payoff, and the quality is unbelievable. I recently made a small MAC blush wishlist which I had intended to buy for myself, but today my mom decided to surprise me with an early Christmas gift. (THANK YOU MOMMY!) *SQUEE!*</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">In addition to sharing my MAC Haul/Gift here on the blog, I also wanted to share my entire MAC Collection that I hope you'll all enjoy. Before I cont<span style="font-size: small;">inue</span>, I just want to mention that I'm not posting this to brag <span style="font-size: small;">in any way</span>. Also, to avoid this post from getting too long, it will mostly contain pictures. I hope that's alright! </span></div>

<tr align="justify"><td class="tr-caption"><span style="font-size: small;">Here's a quick overview of my Bath & Body Works haul. I ended up purchasing a big Cider Lane candle
that was on sale for 60% off. I couldn't resist the price as their regular sized candles regularly sell for $22 Canadian each. Cider Lane has a great fresh scent, I just wish I had purchased two! Next I bought two mini candle holders for $3 Canadian
each, and finally, with the coupon Cindy and I both had, I got a free body lotion in Cashmere glow!</span> </td></tr>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Our next stop was Sephora! I was really excited to go to Sephora with Cindy because there were a lot of products that I had wanted to recommend to her. Naturally, I wanted to purchase the entire store but luckily, I was able to stop myself from making a purchase as I had received a V.I.B. coupon that's only valid as of tomorrow. I did, however, take not of some awesome products that I plan on buying this weekend *whistles innocently*. Cindy did end up buying some great beauty goodies which you can see here: <a href="http://cindysloveofbooks.blogspot.ca/2012/11/spending-time-with-friend-and-shopping.html">Cindy's Haul</a>. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">After Sephora, we made our way into a Lush as I desperately wanted to stock up on a few masks.</span></div>

<tr align="justify"><td class="tr-caption"><span style="font-size: small;">I'm a huge fan of Lush's Fresh Face Masks! After having already tried most of their Fresh Face Mask collection, my favorite would have to be <a href="http://www.lush.ca/Catastrophe-Cosmetic/06093,en_CA,pd.html">Catastrophe Cosmetic</a>. Here's a brief description from the Lush website: </span><br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="font-size: small;">"Prevent disasters by taking regular care with our deep cleaning
blueberry mask, Catastrophe Cosmetic. The little blue bulbs are packed
with vitamins, with a gentle calamine base to cleanse the skin without
stripping it of its natural oils. Use this one weekly as a deep
cleansing treatment to kick off your regular skin care routine."
</span></blockquote>
<span style="font-size: small;">I always buy two Catastrophe Cosmetic masks because it's great for sensitive skin like mine and I use them up pretty quickly. I also bought another mask, <a href="http://www.lush.ca/BB-Seaweed/06091,en_CA,pd.html">BB Seaweed</a> (Amalgame D'Alques in French) because I've heard great things and I was curious to try it out. This was my first time trying BB Seaweed, and I'm so glad that I did. BB Seaweed is definitely my new Lush Fresh Face Mask favorite! Here's a brief description from the Lush website: </span><br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="font-size: small;">"BB Seaweed is a best-seller for its ability turn every rough patch into
smooth, supple skin. No surprises here, BB Seaweed is packed full of
none other than the ocean greenery itself! Seven pounds of it in each
batch, in fact. Finely ground almonds gently slough away dry skin, rose
absolute balances skin tone and organic extra virgin olive oil
moisturizes. Slather up in seaweed and feel your skin smile."</span></blockquote>
<span style="font-size: small;">The Lush Fresh Face Masks sell for $6.95 Canadian each, and they come in individual black pots with 2.1 oz of product. What's also exciting about this product is that you can return 5 empty black pots in store and exchange them for a free mask.</span></td></tr>

Lush normally sells their Charity Pots in large formats for $22.95, however, they are currently selling smaller formats for $5. For those of you what are not familiar with this product, here is a brief description from the Lush website:</span><br />
<h3>

<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">"Charitable cocoa butter cream that keeps on giving. Inside every black pot of Charity Pot is a whole lot more than a
creamy body lotion to hydrate parched, dry skin. Of course, it’s filled
with the finest ingredients, including Fair Trade organic cocoa butter,
and made by hand with love. Not to mention the gorgeous fresh, ylang
ylang floral fragrance. What makes it so special? Every penny (yes,
every single penny) that you pay for a pot, excluding the tax, goes to
fund and support grassroots charities all around the world. You end up
with softer, floral-scented skin AND you’re doing a world of good with
every pot purchased."</span></span><br /><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"></span></span></span></blockquote>

<span style="font-size: small;">Hello fellow makeup lovers! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">As I have been asked many times regarding how I store my makeup and which products <span style="font-size: small;">do </span>I use regularly, I thought it would be exciting to kick off the blog with a makeup collection and storage post! <br /><br />Before I begin, I would just like to mention that in no way am I creating this post to brag. I do acknowledge that I own more makeup than I'll ever need; however, I'm always on the lookout to try out new products. That being said, makeup is one of my hobbies and my collection has grown over the last two years. I did purchase the majority of the products that are in my makeup collection, and the rest was given to me as gifts from friends and family. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">I'm creating this post so that I could share with you how I store my makeup, and I'm hoping that this post will help those who would like new storage ideas for their makeup collection. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br />So without further ado, here is my makeup collection!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: small;">The images below include acrylic drawer organizers that I use to organize my makeup. I purchased from the dollar store in my area, however, you can definitely find similar drawer organizers at an office supply store, or at your local container store. I would recommend getting them in acrylic as they are more durable. Before going out to buy them, it would be great to use items around the house such as gift boxes, or containers that you no longer use.</span></div>

My name is Lucy and I'm a Canadian Blogger from Montreal. I began blogging two years ago as a book blogger and created
<a href="http://moonlightgleam.com/">Moonlight Gleam's Bookshelf</a> so that I could connect
with other book lovers everywhere, and recommend titles that I
personally enjoyed! </span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: small;">Over the last two years, I have also grown a passion for makeup. I've purchased many makeup products and my collection has grown immensely. My desire for sharing recommendations of beauty and makeup related products lead me to create <a href="http://simplyblushed.com/">Simply Blushed</a>.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: small;">I am currently creating natural mineral eyeshadows and other natural beauty products which I will display on the blog from time to time.<br /><br />My other hobbies include photography, and coin collecting, just to name a few. <br /><br />I am always looking for makeup recommendations so please feel free to recommend the products you love (both drugstore or high end)!</span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Here at Simply Blushed, we consider the privacy of our
visitors to be extremely
important, especially for our younger readers. The following will
outline the types of information that is collected by
http://www.simplyblushed.com and how
we use it.<br /><br />
This privacy policy applies only to our online activities and is valid for
visitors to our website and regarding information shared and/or collected
there. This policy does not apply to any information collected offline or via
channels other than this website.

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Like many other Web sites, Simply Blushed makes use of log files. These
files merely logs visitors to the site - usually a standard procedure for
hosting companies and a part of hosting services's analytics. The information
inside the log files includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type,
Internet Service Provider (ISP), date/time stamp, referring/exit pages, and
possibly the number of clicks. This information is used to analyze trends,
administer the site, track user's movement around the site, and gather
demographic information. Those statistics might be shared with advertisers but
IP addresses, and other such information are not linked to any information that
is personally identifiable. </span></span>

Simply Blushed does not knowingly collect any personal

we will use our best efforts to promptly remove such information from
our
records.<br /><br />
If you are under 13, and would like to enter a contest, please have your
parents enter their information. (We have no way of confirming your age, so we are
expecting everyone to be honest, please.) No one’s address will be shared or

information is posted in the winner announcement, beyond their first name

To further aid in the privacy protection of our readers, some contests
and giveaways will have a form provided for participants to enter. This
is done to provide our readers with the ability to hide their email

related to these forms are then deleted at the end of the contest or
