Marc Jacob's Velvet Primer and Mascara

False lash look without the fuss!

I was recently selected to try this mascara and primer from Marc Jacobs for free in exchange for my honest review.

First off I'm still not 100% sure that a primer is necessary. 

That being said the 2 of them together deliver the results that are expected of them.

This mascara is a nice deep black colour so going over top of the cream coloured primer most likely helps to bring that out. I cannot wear false lashes so I appreciate the extra bold look I can achieve with these items. 

I have naturally longer lashes so I feel the mascara on it's own does just fine but if you have shorter lashes this would help to build up that lenght as it dries before applying the mascara over top.

Lays Poppables and Brisk Iced Tea Watermelon Lemonade

Lays Honey BBQ Poppables 🍯and Brisk Half & Half Iced Tea Watermelon Lemonade πŸ‰πŸ‹


Netflix and... snack time πŸ˜‹


Thank you Influenster Canada and Lay's for sending me these new Honey BBQ Poppables free to try. I love the sweet and smokey flavour but most of all i really like the unique shape and light airy texture. Because of the hollow shape it feels like you're eating a handful of chips at once leaving me eating less then i normally would.


I came across this new Brisk at Safeway the other day and has to try it. Watermelon flavoured things are my weakness!! Just like other brisk drinks its a little on the sweet side. The first sip is like a watermelon jolly rancher with an after taste of a tart lemon iced tea. This would probably be exquisite with some vodka over ice 🍹

Le Petite Marseilles Body Wash Review // Mandarin and Lime

Thank you Influenster and Le Petit Marseillaisca for sending me the Mandarin & Lime Body Wash complimentary for testing purposes in exchange for my honest review. 


The first thing I noticed upon opening the packet was the wonderful scent it gave off. The lime was prominent and smelt so refreshing, perfect scent to wake up to in the morning.The lather was great, it was very lite and airy/bubbly. A little sure goes a long way, so this product will last quite a while! After a couple uses I noticed my skin feeling much more moisturized. Overall the product was great and I would definitely be buying it again if i see it on sale!

VIVA LA JUICY // JUICY COUTURE

I got 3 free samples of the Viva La Juicy perfume for free to try out from Influenster.

The scent is the perfect mix of sweet and floral and as it lasts all day it's not overpowering at all.

I gave one of the samples to my mom and she also really liked it.

The other 2 I have kept in different purses so I can use on the go if I forget to put perfume on.

Revlon Mega Multiplier Mascara Review

I absolutely LOVE the new Revlon Mega Multiplier™ Mascara !!! The 360 tube technology coats each lash individually and after a few seconds it sort of dries like "cling wrap" is the best way to describe it. Because of this new water resistant formula there is no flaking or clumping. The blackest black is a nice high gloss finish leaving you with natural but bolder longer looking lashes. The only thing I might change is the brush itself because I do typically like silicone brushes over the bristles.

INFLUENSTER SPRING VIBES VOXBOX

I was sent a variety of goodies for free from Influenster in exchange for my honest opinions of each product. 

The Spring Vibes Voxbox contained Quaker granola bars, Anne's Organic mac and cheese, Arm and Hammer laundry soap, a popsocket for my phone, Nivea Q10 body oil, ImPress press on nails and Nescafe inatant coffee. 

I have individual reviews on my instagram page @xoxbarbieprincessxox but I can say my favorite product was the mac and cheese and my product I didn't know I needed is definitely this popsocket which makes taking selfies 1000x easier
