My Pinterest vision turned reality when I found these two blank canvasses in the apartment. I used tape and three colours to make a geometrical pattern. I posted on instagram (@SimplySarahxoxo) and everyone loved it and wanted to know how. I decided to add two small canvasses to make the ‘L’ shaped canvas into a square and film a DIY how to video.
Here it is 🙂

Drugstore Foundation Review
Lately I’ve been experimenting with foundation.
I’ve got acne and scarring thanks to some wonderful genetics (insert thumbs up here ), which I’m very self conscious about.
I’m always on the hunt for a foundation that will blend well, not too greesy, mask most of my smaller Problem areas and that will last a long time. These last few months I have been on kind of a frenzy and have tried 5 different drugstore foundations.
I have filmed a review video describing the pro’s and con’s of each.
What foundations do you use? Do you have a Fave or hated foundation? Let me know!

DIY Makeup Brush Cleaning Board
This DIY makeup brush cleaning board is so amazing! I got this idea from SecretLifeOfABioNerd on Youtube.
The Idea was thought of after the Sigma brush cleaning mitt came out. Its a good idea and I like that its a mitt but the con is that its 40$. That’s way to much to even spend on that IMO.
This is what the Sigma brushes look like:
Looks pretty cute but again…$40.00
I’ve put together a DIY video on how to make your board.
All you need is a plastic clipboard (or similar) and a glue gun with glue.

Body Shop Haul
I got an email from the body shop this morning about their one day sale. It was today only and it was 50% off ALL the makeup. I needed new face stuff so it could not have been any more convenient.
I made the special trip to the mall to check it out. The staff were amazing and the manager helped me pick out exactly what I needed. I found a cream foundation that I will try out along with a loose powder.
The Marcelle loose translucent powder has been making my face look a little to pink and really making my acne show through. The powder is more yellowy so I’m hoping this will work out.
Of course that was not all I got. It’s 50% off!!!
I didn’t go too crazy but I did get lip gloss. I don’t actually own translucent like lip gloss. I got peach and watermelon. The peach is pretty clear but the watermelon gives a hint of colour. I have tried these already and they are not terribly sticky or gummy. They smell nice with out being too sugary smelling…. If that even makes sense
My next purchase is a blush. At the moment I don’t have a nice sheer like blush. On the recommendation of the manager I got this one. I swatched it on my hand but its hard to see 🙂
The last thing I purchased, which I’m most excited about is the illuminator! I’ve been eyeing the benefit high beam highlighter but I’ve had trouble coughing up the 26$ for it. This one was 14.50$ regular price and I got 60% off!!! I decided to try it.
I’m really excited to try out all if these products and ill keep you posted in how I liked them 🙂
Have you ever tried the body shop make up???
