Another Example of Why My Sister Gives the Best Gifts

Hi, everybody! I'm coming at you with another quick but exciting holiday-related post. I've given shout-outs to the amazing beauty-related goodies that my little sister has gifted me in the past. This Christmas was no exception, so I thought I'd give you a peek at what I was lucky enough to receive from her this year. 


In addition to a perfectly festive fashion magazine (love Lupita!) and a decadent chocolate bar (um, yum), I got some perfectly colourful items from Revlon and NYX. First up is Revlon ColourBurst Matte Balm in Shameless, a bold, cool purple. Then we have NYX Powder Blush in Pinched, a warm mid-tone flushed pink. Finally, two lip goodies from NYX. We have a Butter Gloss (my new favourite lip gloss formula!) in Peaches and Cream (a true coral) and Soft Matte Lip Cream in Addis Ababa (an amazing vibrant fuchsia). I can't wait to give them all a go! 

 In sum, the girl did good! Thanks so much to my lovely sis for all that she does, including feeding my voracious makeup (and chocolate) addiction! 

 Did you get any makeup goodies for the holidays? Loving any of the items I featured here?

 Thanks for stopping by! xo
