Birchbox vs. Sephora PLAY! / Video





I've noticed two things recently. 
1. I have been putting out a lot of video content 
2. A lot of my content has not been style related.

I can explain why. When I started editing my vlog of Canada (I've been working on it for months!) I realized how much I LOVE making videos. I like every aspect of it. I love filming and editing so why not keep exploring this passion? I'm currently working on an "alternative" apartment tour of sorts. I'm excited to see how it turns out. 

Another reason I haven't had much fashion content lately is due to some health problems I've been having lately. Normally I'd go out and shoot my outfits on the weekends really early in the morning but I've been spending my weekends resting as much as possible. I am hoping the fatigue will be gone soon as I love fall fashion and want to show you guys what I've been wearing! 

Anyways, do you subscribe to any beauty boxes?

The Pros and Cons of Beauty Boxes



Sephora Play - November!

It's been a while since I've done a beauty post! To clarify from my last post - I will be posting on this blog but just not on instagram. I'm still trying to figure out a schedule that will work because I'm not sure I can commit to three posts per week but we'll see!

I recently started subscribing to the Sephora PLAY box. I've never gotten a beauty subscription box but a friend of mine recommended this one and it's only $10! I was pretty pleased with my first box so I thought I'd show you what I got! And I might have subscribed because of the blog content....








November's theme was "Best in Glow" so it featured a myriad of products to help either give you a natural glow or give you a little help with it! 

The first product is the Glam Glow Hydrating Thirstymud Treatment, which I was really excited to try out. It's a really nice mask for clearing up my skin BUT very drying. I definitely wouldn't pay $70 for a full size. 

The next product is the Caudalie Vinosource Moisturizing Sorbet. This is a really nice moisturizer. It didn't irritate my skin (like most) and left it fairly hydrated. But again, I don't know if I would pay $40 for it. 




One product I haven't tried yet is the Cover FX Illuminating Primer. I haven't been wearing much face makeup lately but when I do, I'll definitely be giving this a try! 

Probably my favorite thing from this box is the Laura Mercier Cavier Stick Eye Color. I've been wearing it everyday since I got it! It lasts all day and is the perfect champagne color for this time of year. I'm obsessed. 


One product I honestly didn't even try is the Sephora Ultra Shine Lip Gloss. It's a hot pink color and I really hate lip glosses so I didn't even bother. 

The box also comes with a perfume sample each time, which is fun but I normally stick to the same perfume (a-hem cologne) everyday. 

Would you get the Sephora Play box?
