I have been meaning to review this for months now, but I always get distracted with other more “fun” things to review. That, and I’ve been super busy with work. What else is new?
Lancôme’s Noir Artliner is jet black with a semi-glossy finish. Its felt tip applicator allows for a super precise line, thin or thick, and the formula is phenomenal; fast drying and doesn’t budge. You get opaque after only one layer and it will last all day. Seriously! Artliner’s felt tip is very gentle on the eyes — it doesn’t tug or pull. The only drawback that I can think of is that because it’s super pigmented and dries in seconds, you will need to have steady hands when lining your eyes because fixing it up can be a bit of a pain.
I bought this for about $10 USD at an outlet outside the Strip when I visited Las Vegas. It normally retails for about $35+ CAD. Definitely recommended!

MAC Studio Moisture Tint
Perfect for when I want a bit more coverage than concealer.
Some random bracelet I bought on sale for $7.
Greek Salad
I’ve been on a Greek Salad bender for the past month now. It’s all I ever think about when lunchtime rolls around. No, it’s not because of some diet (I don’t think I could ever commit to that). I just love vegetables and salads that much.

Another Greek Salad
Yeah, I think I’m obsessed with Greek Salad. I took my brother to Sophia Restaurant across the border for his birthday a week ago and got this (he ordered the monstrous chocolate chip pancakes).

Bumble and Bumble Surf Spray
The perfect tool for turning sleek and neat hair into just-got-into-a-bar-brawl-messy hair. Can’t live without it. Moo La La from Caffe Demetre.
Waffle with double scoops of Nutello (tastes similar to Nutella and contains chunks of chocolate chips) ice cream, banana slices, dollops of whipped cream, shaved almonds, and hot chocolate fudge.

A job well done.

It’s been almost a year since my last “in my purse” post, so I thought I’d do another one for old time’s sake. Lately, all I’ve been carrying around is Pepper. I almost didn’t get her at all, actually. I initially wanted the same style of bag only with the giant hardware instead of the regular hardware that Pepper has, but it was all sold out here. My bf offered to get me either the Anthracite or Papyrus or Praline in Las Vegas, but the only colour that I really liked (Praline) was snatched up by someone else. Thankfully, he talked me out of getting a bag that expensive without seeing it in person and I’m glad he did because I believe that Pepper and I were meant to be, guys.
