While I’m not one to turn up the sparkle + colour in my holiday wardrobe, apparently that doesn’t apply to my makeup routine. I love a good red lip during the holidays and I’ve actually mixed two shades together to create the perfect dark red colour. I wore this makeup look in a post last week, 5 Items That Get Me Through the Holidays, and so many of you asked about it that I thought I would recreate it!
For my second Holiday giveaway, I’ve got some of my favourite Smashbox products – three of which are featured in this video! They are valued at $235. Entry details are below and the contest is open for one week, ending on Sunday, Dec. 18 at 11:59 EST. Good luck!
The Bite Beauty giveaway is now and the winner’s name is up! Please shoot me an email and we will organize shipment of your gift 🙂 Congratulations!
Really liking the new video’s you’ve been posting and giving me idea’s on new products to try! As for your query on the self tanner, I really love this one by Clarins for the face! I mix it in with my daily moisturizer and adds a really nice natural glow! http://www.clarins.ca/en/radiance-plus-golden-glow-booster/0143210.html#start=1

Love the make up videos. I really liked the first shade of red lipstick. As for self tanners I don’t use them a lot. Prefer bronzer. However, I do like the St. Tropez.
Looking forward to the next posting
Great tutorial! Love seeing you branch out into more beauty posts. Please keep it up
I loved the tip about making use of bronzer as an eye shadow! The lip colour you create is also fantastic. I was wondering if you have any teeth whitening tips, or products that you make use of. Your teeth look great with the lip colour 🙂

Hi Lesley!
Yes I have and I love it. I didn’t have it for the video but am using it daily now. The bronzer is soft and natural looking and the highlighter is so so pretty. Definitely recommend it! And thank you, that means so much to me!
