5 Items You Must Have In Your Makeup Bag



A lot of us might be in the stage where we're still getting into makeup and slowly in the process of building up your collection or maybe you already have a lot of makeup and just want to buy more products to try (I hoard a lot of makeup). Whichever it is, i'm going to be telling you 5 items that I think you should have in your makeup bag. I'll be giving a drugstore and high-end option to each item so don't you worry! Just a heads up, I live in Canada so all the prices I list are in Canadian Dollars.

1. Liquid Eyeliner
Some of us may prefer gel, pencil, or cake liner over liquid eyeliner but I said liquid eyeliner, especially the ones in pen form, because I find it quick and easy to use. I personally always do winged liner on a daily basis so getting that perfect flick is really important to me. I also find that I can do my winged eyeliner very quickly when I use liquid liner as opposed to using gel. A drugstore liquid liner I recommend would be the L'oréal Liquid Artist Eyeliner - $10.36 (Walmart CDN). A high-end liquid liner I recommend is the Stila Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner - $26 (Sephora CDN).

Garnier Clean Impurities Eliminating Scrub Review



I've been looking for a good exfoliating because my skin in oily combination skin so I get dry patches here and there. A lot of people are raving about charcoal products so I decided to get myself an exfoliant with charcoal in it. I decided to get the Garnier Clean Impurities Eliminating Scrub after seeing a couple reviews on it. No matter what skin type you have, you always want to make sure you're exfoliating your skin at least twice a week to get rid of the dead skin cells. Some exfoliators can be more abrasive than others so get a sample of the product first to test it on your skin before you buy it.

The Garnier Clean Impurities Eliminating Scrub is a gel exfoliator with micro beads (charcoal bits) that deeply cleanses, tighten pores and also makes your skin smooth. This product is more directed towards those with oily skin (it also says oily skin on the bottle) because of the charcoal and salicylic acid in it. It draws out the oils and dirts in your skin which can also dry out your skin so you wouldn't want to use it if you already have dry skin.

What is "Hey, Lets Makeup" ?

welcome
Hey Let's Makeup is a beauty and lifestyle blog started by me, Nicole! I started this blog because everything about beauty intrigues me. Everyday I learn something new about makeup and instead of keeping that knowledge to myself, I thought starting a blog would be neat so I can show others tips and tricks. I do go to cosmetology school so everything I talk about will not be just from watching YouTube videos or reading other blogs. I'm new to blogging and still getting used to the gist of everything.
Here are things you can expect from Hey, Lets Makeup:
  • Monthly Favourites - I talk about the products I've been loving this month (both beauty and non beauty item) 
  • Monthly Wishlist - I'll show you the items I've been wanting, basically my wishlist I build up in my mind
  • Product Reviews - Reviewing products and giving you my opinion on them
  • Beauty Tips and Tricks - Just tips and tricks I find neat
Those are just a few things you can expect from my blog, but theres much more than that! I still haven't figured out my posting schedule yet, but for now I'm planning to post at least twice a week and once I get into the habit of posting and figuring everything out, I'll start posting more ☺
