New Workspace !

Hello friends, so in the past whenever i was working on a project or studying i did not have a proper workspace. I usually just sit in bed or on my couch, which can make one very lazy. However I do have a desk but its an office desk with very limited space. and not at all convenient when I am working on large art projects.

Thus I got this desk from Ikea! Now i had never been to ikea before and did not even know i could get a desk like this. however recently i saw a Vlog on youtube where some had purchased something similar. and i fell in love with it instantly.

I went to ikea and picked out the different parts and it was a very reasonable price.

The top was around $50 and each leg was $35.

I love how i could customize it to the size and exact look i wanted.

I also love the little shelves on the legs of the desk where i will store my various art supplies.

Overall this desk will be great for big projects. and i will surely try not to do my work in beg again!

self reflection

recently i have been working a lot on improving myself.
i hear the saying all the time "sometimes you have to be selfish"
well for me its the opposite
i can often be a little too selfish and blame everything on others
I need to learn to be selfless
i need to own up to my mistakes and look at things clearly and in that focus on myself and not on others and what they have done wrong or right
but on what MY part is in a situation or conflict
because i can only improve MYSELF
i cannot change others because i am in no position to make decisions for others
or even in a position to make someone realize something
i can only deal with my own thoughts feelings emotions and actions

lets declutter

I can be such a hoarder sometimes and buy things i could live without. i think we are all like that sometimes. However i have to many products in my life right now! well its nothing compared to alot of beauty gurus etc. but it is just to much for me. I have an abundance of lotions, face washes, scrubs , perfumes and shampoos! and i cannot stand it. So i have made a pact with myself to first finish ALL ( well mostly all) of these products before i venture out and get new ones.

This might not be a big deal to some people but i can really be anal with my organizing sometimes and this is driving me a little crazy. i think i will enjoy new products even more knowing that i do not have more to finish up. also i am such a big fan of lotions specifically the ones from the body shop so its very hard for me to contain myself! specially with all the great sales they have.

after i am done decluttering i will probably make a blog post and youtube video about it and review the products i used up!

heres to being organized!

down town

I got a new perfume! I have fallen in love with the new downtown perfume by calvin klein! Firstly the thing that attracted me most to this perfume was not even the scent at all... but the commercial for it. loved the concept and music. here's to great advertising. Then i went to my local shoppers drug mart and tried it out a few times and really did love it.

I am not a fan of very strong scents as my daily perfume. This perfume is a little fruity but not overpowering strong. it is just the perfect mix between fruity and elegant. I am not the best at describing scents so you should go check it out yourself! 

I got the 1.7 FL OZ / 50 ml which was around $80 canadian.

it is a little expensive for my taste but i don't mind making an exception for a great perfume.

new boots!

Hello friends

So i have been looking for some new boots for the fall... and so far in the stores i had checked they were tres expensive for my cheap taste. Then i stumbled upon the justfab website due to an online advertisement. I have heard a lot about this website and how cheap it is. However i doubted it because of the extremely cheap prices. But since i was getting 50% off on my first order i decided to give it a shot. 

the shoe is called "January" 

and let me tell you i am very happy with my order! 

1. firstly the amazing price!

2. super fast delivery... they came in mail in about 2 days!!

3. also the fit of the shoe is perfect

Therefore, so far I am extremely happy with my order... however i will have to wait and see how long these lasts and the quality seems pretty good so far. so i you are looking for cute new cheap shoes just fab is the perfect website to visit

look at all these useless things i bought...

Bioderma - I have heard SOO much about this product and its greatness... so i finally gave in and bought it! first i was shocked by the price which was $30 for this bottle. However then i realized that it will last me a very long time compared to other make up removers that that much smaller in size and cost a lot as well. I have used it once and i am really liking it! it feels like water on your skin and does not leave your skin oily like my other make up remover. After using this your skin just feels super soft and clean. 

Aloe soothing night cream- So recently i have really been trying to put in effort to cleaning my skin before bed. Therefore i wanted to get a good cream to apply before bed. And so far so good! this is a great, soothing, scentless product and is very gentle of the skin. it is made for sensitive skin however i think it is fine for any skin type and i am loving it so far. 

Seaweed pore cleansing facial exfoliator- So i was not on the look out for a new exfoliator. i just picked this up because they had a deal going on at the body shop ( like always). and i have heard good things about their seaweed line! I have only used this once and i would say i am loving it! it is not harsh on the skin at all and leaves skin smooth and refreshed. 

Rocket volume express- I am not a big fan os mascaras, i dont know why but i just dont wear it often. however i did need a new one and its always good to have at least one. i have heard alot of good reviews about this mascara so i went for it. After only one use i do like it. however i dont have much to compare it to... so i will keep you updated on that.

and then just some clear nail varnish just because....
