HEY!
My name is Jess and I am 27 years old. I live in Ontario, Canada and as you can tell, I am obsessed with makeup!
I started collecting makeup a few years ago, and I believe I have quite the collection now–which I figured, why not share it with all you lovely people? 😉
I went to Sheridan College for Early Childhood Education and pursued my studies by graduating with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Child and Family Studies at Nipissing University. While studying, I became a Don (also known as a Resident Advisor) and I quickly fell in love with Residence Life. I now work in Residence as a Supervisor :).
I am now engaged to the love of my life – we have been dating for 9 years! We are getting married in June of 2021 and to say I have been planning is an understatement.
My makeup journey began many years ago when I got my eyebrows waxed and the lady did a horrible job. I ended up running (literally, running) to Shoppers Drug Mart, where I asked a lady to help me shape my brows into what they somewhat were before. That is when I instantly fell in love with makeup! Since then, I have been collecting makeup and the obsession only grows! And yes, I still use the brow product the lady recommended me 😉

Hi Jess, I love your blog! It’s funny how you got into makeup after a lady messed up your eyebrows. I actually had mine messed up pretty bad and I ended up just doing them on my own. One wrong move and goodbye beautiful brows! I am also in Canada! Vancouver, actually. Looking forward to seeing more posts from you!

Hi Brandie!
Thank you so much for coming across my blog and reading about me aha! Yes, unfortunately my eyebrows were a hot mess BUT I guess I have her to thank for messing them up…I’m now a makeup junkie (in debt haha…).
I get my eyebrows threaded now though, so that has worked out for me! WOW I wish I could do my own eyebrows haha I definitely don’t trust myself enough to do that!
I’m so excited you live in Canada! I live near Toronto (like 30 mins–Oakville!). If you ever visit sometime, we should meet up! I’m following your blog, so I’m very excited to read your upcoming posts! ❤

I actually had my eye brows threaded right off… it took them like a year to grow back. So brutal. Then I had a woman accidentally wax off half my brow… I have eyebrow trust issues now LOL. I’ve been to Toronto a couple times actually, I went last summer for a wedding in Hamilton and I think we actually may have drove through Oakville! I’d love to meet you on my next trip out!
