After 2 failed attempts, I finally was able to get my hands on the Colourpop Yes Please palette during the most recent restock. If you have yet to get your hands on it, don’t worry! Colourpop will restock again today at 10am EST – just in time for fall, too! This warm-toned palette has very quickly become a staple for me. With a variety of shades and 2 gorgeous finishes, there are so many ways to wear it!
BOLD PINK & GOLD LOOK
Playing with bright, bold makeup is such a meditative experience for me. I feel like my mind goes blank, I simply focus on the moment – blending, combining, exploring, creating. It’s therapeutic. On Thursday afternoon, instead of worrying about heading back to work on Friday morning, I sat down with a bunch of makeup, without a plan and just went for it. The final result was this bright pink and gold look – and I love the final look!
LOVING LATELY No. 8 – MY CURRENT FAVOURITES
You may know that I like to share my current favourites from time to time! However, I realized I hadn’t posted a Loving Lately round up for over a year… So I figured it’s time to let you guys know what I’m currently loving. There’s a mix of makeup and lifestyle items that I can’t get enough of at the moment, so let’s just jump on in!
My current faves
For my first “Loving Lately” post in over a year, this round up may seem quite boring. I’ve been wearing very tonal, easy makeup most days and relaxing as much as I possibly can in downtime. I haven’t been feeling well, and so I’ve been working from home a lot, so haven’t been wearing much makeup. But I have been really loving these items I’ve found myself reaching for the most.
COLOURPOP (MATTE) PRESSED SHADOWS REVIEW

COLOURPOP CREME GEL LINERS
There are some things you can always rely on Colourpop for – fun colours and a good price. Like all of their products I have tried, the Creme Gel Liners totally live up to that! The brand offers an array of bold, unique colours as well as essential neutrals in their Creme Gel Liner formula for just $5 USD or about $6.60 CAD at the moment [insert crying face] per pencil. Although the conversion to CAD at the moment is so dramatic, these liners are still significantly less the price of a lot of drugstore brand liners cost now! I currently have 5 shades from the line up – Zulu (pastel sea foam green), HoneyDude (warm nude), Exit (true white), Boots (hot pink) and No Shame (blackened violet) – all of which are fun, pigmented and creamy shades.
Above you can see just how saturated and vivid these colours are! Left to right I’ve swatched – Zulu, HoneyDude, Exit, Boots and No Shame. I admire that Colourpop releases adventurous shades that I don’t see from other lines. And for such a great price point, why not try colours out of your comfort zone?!
I am looking forward to trying out more shades, I am especially interested in some of the metallics for something different. If you’ve tried these colours, or any others, please let me know your thoughts!
