Lipstick TAG
I found a tag video on Youtube called the "crazy about lipstick tag" and decided to film and answer the questions myself, you can find that video here. When filling out the description, I went out to find the originator of the tag, as I always do so I can include the link and give proper credit. Well when I went to do so, I found that the original questions were from this blog, and as the tag has gone around youtube, I guess the questions have been altered. I thought I would go ahead and answer the questions I missed from the original blog post, in my own blog post :)
What was your first ever lipstick?
Funny enough, I just stumbled upon it the other day when reorganizing my collection, I had no idea I still had it! It definitely needs to be thrown away, as that purchase was probably 8+ years ago now (man, that makes me feel old). Anyway, the name has rubbed off, but all I know is it's a disgusting deep but bright magenta/hot pink/so gross on my skin tone I don't even know how to appropriately describe it colour. One of those things I bought just for the sake of owning my first item of makeup.
What is your most worn lipstick?
My "most worn" lipstick is definitely not my "all time favourite" lipstick, which is why I didn't include it in the video, as it's not that worth mentioning I don't think. Anyway, my most worn lipstick is without a doubt, Myth by MAC. I could live without it (I have a few other MAC nudes I actually prefer) and it's not my all time favourite, but I find myself using it the most for some reason haha, try to understand that girl logic ;)
What is your favourite brand for lipstick?
Revlon and MAC are always at the top of my list because of their quality but also their finish options and colour selection, but Buxom also really impresses me.
How many lip products do you currently have in your handbag? (Including balms and glosses)
Four, which would be a pretty average number for me. I always always have a chapstick (either Blistex Lip Medex or an EOS lip balm) in my bag, then the lipstick and lipgloss combo I am wearing that particular day, along with a back-up lipstick (almost always a nude) in case I find myself getting tired of my current lip colour, which occasionally happens when I'm rocking a really bold lip. So 4 products.
I rarely do reds, but when I do it is Strawberry Suede by Revlon. It's matte and creamy and perfect. If I'm doing an bold orange lip (which is more common for me) it's Sail La Vie by MAC.
How do you store your lipsticks?
I just purchased the Alex 9 drawer from IKEA for make-up storage, and my lipstick is still in the process of being organized. Right now I have a little shelf above the Alex that fits all of my Revlon lipstick (my most worn overall brand) an acrylic organizer for daily makeup on top of the unit (which fits up to 12 lipsticks, so my MAC lipstick collection fits perfectly) and then one drawer inside the unit is dedicated to all the stragglers (along with stains, balms, glosses etc.)
What lip products are you currently lusting after?
Oh man, this answer could go on and on. There are a few MAC shades I would love to get my hands on (specifically from collections I can no longer find) as well as a couple Korres products, but mostly I'm lusting over Too Faced La Creme Lip Colours (Juicy Melons is at the top of my list) as well as Tarte Glamazon lipsticks which I've always been obsessed with (but have never found the nerve to buy) especially in the colours Bold and Enlightened.
Thanks for this tag Maxi, it was definitely a fun one :) Lipstick addicts unite!

Favourite Cloth Diaper Prints
These are my current favourite cloth diaper prints. I'll list the brand name, but keep in mind you can/will likely find each specific fabric pattern in multiple brands and types of diapers.
Chevron is so trendy right now, it's all over home decor items, clothing, accessories etc. I'm apparently a huge trend follower, because I love me some chevron/zigzag/squiggles... whatever you want to call this pattern. This grey chevron diaper from the etsy shop TheEliMonster is beyond
precious.
AMP has probably one of the cutest cloth diaper designs out there in my opinion. The frilly looking leg gussets, the rounded tabs..and we can't forget the amazing print options. This elephant print named Wee Trunks is almost too much to handle.
I didn't want to put diapers on this list that weren't readily available, but when I looked at this Goodmama 795 Jo OBV (according to her Flickr..but I can't find it anywhere else), I couldn't not include it. After all, it's at the top of my Goodmama "have to have it" list, the delicate floral print is right up my alley. I could easily make a top 6 list all of goodmama, they are just so freaking cute!
I know this diaper isn't for everybody, but seriously...whoever created the print on this Baby Wizard must have gotten a hold of my brain and made this diaper specifically for me. The leaves, the orange and navy and grey, the random goose...or is that a swan? Either way, it's a win.
This is my only cheat, because it's not technically a cloth diaper, but it's a cloth diaper accessory so it's allowed, I've decided. But seriously, have you ever seen such a glorious array of colours and geometric-wonderfulosity? I had not until finding this Etsy seller PETUNIAS.
Lastly, this beauty from Ananbaby (and the 2,349,823 other brands who also sell it) is probably my favourite. Sometimes I'm in the mood for calm and cool colours and prints, and sometimes I just want a bright colour and pattern explosion; this bird design definitely provides that!
Thanks for reading my loves, let me know your favourite prints of the 6 I listed, or better yet, tell me your favourite print! Go ahead and link to the diaper or brand, so we can all appreciate the art of the fluff.

Liam's Thomas the Train Birthday Party
Thomas the Train, Thomas the Tank Engine, Thomas and Friends etc etc. Whatever you want to call it, that was the theme of Liam's birthday party. He's loved Thomas for quite some time now, so during his annual camping birthday weekend I threw together some train themed stuff. Honestly, I started getting stuff together only a week before the party, and put most of it together in like 24 hours, so I could have done more or done better, but Liam loved it so it was perfect :)
I also had 2 picture frames with photos of Liam in them, but unfortunately I didn't get a great picture of, but these are the two photos I took for the frames:
I got this "chug chug, chew chew" idea from here and thought it was super cute. So I just threw together a couple different designs in Photoshop and printed them out on some glossy paper. I love the water bottle labels because it's such a simple idea but really adds something to the whole theme.
And finally, the banner. I love this banner. It was so fun to shop for fabrics and put together! Obviously I didn't have some fancy backdrop or nice crisp white walls or something to take pictures in front of, just nature haha, so the full effect is probably not quite there.
And Liam's face when you tell him to smile. He's a hoot.
Thanks for reading! I'm already thinking about ideas for Liam's 4th birthday! Check out my Pinterest board for birthday and other special event inspiration, as well as my Youtube for an upcoming video montage of Liam's birthday weekend!

Liam's Alphabet Room
I adore Liam's room, it was the first room we put together when we moved into this house almost 2 years ago. I love clean lines, soft muted colours and beautiful flowy decor, but when it came to my toddler's room, I wanted a crayon box explosion type look. Colours everywhere, nothing really matching..but all matching at the same time. We went with pine furniture and white linens, and then a rainbow of colours everywhere else.
As our time enjoying this wonderful home is coming to an end (shocking news, I know), I wanted to share some of my favourite parts of Liam's room.
Of course the first has to be the one that takes the most space...and took the most work.
As our time enjoying this wonderful home is coming to an end (shocking news, I know), I wanted to share some of my favourite parts of Liam's room.
Of course the first has to be the one that takes the most space...and took the most work.
The alphabet wall.
I had had this idea for quite a while before we finally moved and I could make my dreams of an alphabet wall a reality. In that time, I found a bunch of other bloggers who had done similar alphabet walls, and got even more inspired! These letters (while not perfect, or perfectly aligned haha) came from everywhere and anywhere. That "U" is a horseshoe that my grandfather had for probably 60 years above his workshop door. The "B" I found deep in a bin of junk at the thrift store, and covered it in a page from one of Liam's books, that I probably cut wrong 3 times before finally getting a usable scrap. That "W" was part of an iron sign that said "wine" until we took a grinder to it. Every letter was bought from a different store, painted or glued or cut or mended; it was a blast.
The bed.
A custom pine log bed, made by a local furniture maker/artist. I love the structure, the colour and all the little imperfections of the wood. The pillow and pillowcase are from Superstore, the white blanket is Coyuchi and the rainbow blanket was found at Winners (Piccolo Bambino brand).
The little details.
I found this awesome recycled magazine wastebasket at Bed, Bath and Beyond and the owl and piggy bank were thrifted (but I do think the owl bank originally comes from Chapters/Indigo). I thought it would be good to integrate some white decor into the room, so the colourful-ness wasn't too overwhelming. I think these break up the colours well, but still look like they fit in.
and you can't complain about the view.
If you want to see more; like my cloth diaper organization, cute wall canvas art and how we store toys in his room - make sure to check out our room tour video :)

I can't cloth diaper because...
Let me preface this by saying, there is nothing wrong with not using cloth diapers. Too often, some mamas get a tad sanctimonious and have a way of making others feel bad for their decision not to use cloth. If you don't want to use cloth diapers, don't use cloth diapers - but don't take anything I say the wrong way and assume I am judging you for your reasons or decisions. This blog post is not for those people, this blog post is for people who want to cloth diaper but feel there is something preventing them from doing so...I call these excuses. Some people cannot physically cloth diaper; I am not ignorant to this fact, I understand it is simply unrealistic for certain situations.
That being said, "I can't cloth diaper because.." is one of the most common phrases I see, and having done cloth diaper videos for 2 years now, I find myself regularly conversing with those people and trying to help them realize the "truth" about cloth diapers, and how their obstacle may be more easily overcome than they initially thought. So today I'm going to discuss some of those obstacles and maybe it will give even just one person a new perspective. Warning: Snarkiness ahead.
1. "I can't cloth diaper because I can't afford it."
The average cloth diaper stash is $300 over 2 years. The average disposable cost over 2 years is $1700. You don't mean you can't afford it, you mean you can't afford it all right now. If you can afford disposables, you can afford cloth. If you need ideas of how to affordably cloth diaper, go here.
If your concern is that the upkeep of the diapers will break the bank, throw that thought away. My water bill went up like $2 a month after starting cloth. And even if it does go up a noticeable amount, there are tons of ways to cut your water consumption.
2. "I can't cloth diaper because my mom/sister/friend hated it."
My immediate response to this is "Do you parent the exact same way at this person? Are you identical in personality? Do you like the exact same foods and watch the exact same tv shows and date the exact same men?" Unless you are literally the same person (which last time I checked, is impossible) WHY would you assume that you won't like cloth diapering simply because someone told you they didn't like cloth diapering?
My second thought is, "WHY didn't they like cloth diapers?" I can honestly say, the only times I have ever encountered people who hated cloth diapering were due to one of two reasons, 1) They were doing it 10+ years ago when cloth diapers were totally different, or 2) They were doing it wrong. Not to be rude, but if you're doing cloth diapers the 'right' way...there's not much reason to hate it. If you're getting leaks, if you're getting rashes, if you're getting the stinkies..you're doing something wrong, and there are tons of ways to change it and fix it and make it right. If there's another reason they hated it (like they just didn't have time, or found it too difficult to comprehend) I'll go back to point #1, which is "are you the same person? Do you live identical lives? Do you have the same opinion on everything?" And if the answer is no, than stop living your life based on the way someone else lived theirs. Yeah, some people don't have time for cloth diapers, and some people just can't get into the groove of it, but that does not mean it will be the same for you.
3. "I can't cloth diaper because they stink."
Yep, pretty much anything you put next to your baby's butt is more often than not, going to smell like whatever came out of said butt. Diapers don't smell, your baby produces things that smell. And unless you're taking that disposable diaper directly outside to the curb for the garbage truck every.single.time you change a diaper, those disposables are sitting in the nursery smelling it up just as long as a cloth diaper would be.
If you're finding you have a stinky cloth diaper pail, make sure you're using a dry pail, with an open lid and an odor disc; one or more of those may solve your problem completely. Here's a video on troubleshooting stink.
4. "I can't cloth diaper because I don't want to touch poop."
You do know you're having a baby, right? Creating a human being and then coming in contact with their bodily fluids is kind of a given.
5. "I can't cloth diaper because they leak."
If you put them on too loose, yes. If you use the wrong diaper cream or laundry detergent, yes. If you leave it on too long, yes.
Cloth diapering may take some trouble shooting and more thought put into them than disposables, but cloth does not always leak. For me, cloth diapers never leak...especially for no reason. Click here if you're looking for a video on leaks.
6. "I can't cloth diaper because I have to change them more often."
More often than what? Shouldn't you be changing your baby's diaper when they pee or poop in the diaper? Whether you're using disposables or cloth, won't your baby be peeing the same amount? I'm not sure when as people we decided that a disposable diaper claiming to "be able to last 12 hours" was normal or acceptable...in fact, the thought of that truly disgusts me.
7. "I can't cloth diaper because my child has allergies."
You can't really technically be allergic to all cloth diapers. You can have an allergy to a certain material - so choose a different fabric. You can be allergic to a certain detergent - so choose another detergent. Cloth diapers are made from many things; cotton, bamboo, hemp, microfleece, suedecloth, fleece, wool, PUL..and the list goes on. If they are sensitive to a fabric, detergent or cream..use a different one.
8. "I can't cloth diaper because they cause rashes."
As stated above, your child may be sensitive to certain materials or ingredients in certain detergents, or even allergic..so good thing there are many different options to help fix this issue. If your child is, or you've seen a child be really red in the diaper area after wearing cloth, the number of possible reasons for this is huge; they could be sensitive to the material, you could have build-up issues, you could need more moisture wicking in the diapers, or you could not be changing them often enough. Again, once you troubleshoot this and really learn how the perfect way to cloth diaper your particular child, it should go smoothly. Link to a video on rashes.
9. "I can't cloth diaper because I don't have time."
This one is legitimate. If you're working 18 hour shifts at your job every day of the week, and only come home to sleep...yeah, it sounds like cloth diapering probably isn't for you. If you have time to do your other laundry, you have time to cloth diaper. Cloth diapering takes no more time than disposables, besides the washing portion. I don't know how the myth got started that cloth diapering takes so much more time. How is it much different? You put a diaper on your baby's bum, a few hours later you take that diaper off, put it in a diaper pail and repeat. Where exactly is all this time consuming diaper changing occurring? Not in my house, that's for sure. Washing my diapers takes about 5 minutes. I put them in the washing machine and turn a knob, about 20 minutes later I go back in and turn another knob. Then I take them out to dry. *Yawn*, how truly exhausting. We're all busy, we all have more exciting things to do than wash diapers; it's about your priority level and what's important to you.
10. "I can't cloth diaper because I don't have a washing machine."
Yep, you can. Washing cloth diapers by hand in your tub is a possibility, or actually buy a hand washing machine..or get an apartment size/portable washing machine. There's also a laundromat, check out how much that would cost you. Keep in mind there are a lot of different types of cloth diapers, and some are actually quite friendly to use even if you don't have access to a washing machine.
11. "I can't cloth diaper because my child is in daycare."
These days, a ton of daycares are accepting cloth diapers, and if they don't it is often because they just don't know anything about it. Suggest to your daycare provider that you sit down and chat about cloth diapers and see if they are willing to be more open minded on the subject. As with your parent/friend/sister, they may not like cloth diapering because they don't know enough about it, or don't know the right information. If you truly are passionate about cloth diapering, perhaps looking for a daycare provider whose beliefs better compliment yours is something to consider.
12. "I can't cloth diaper because my husband said no."
This would hands down, be the number one 'excuse' I see, and the inner feminist in me gets quite heated when I do. Sometimes I feel like I am in the minority of people who are in relationships founded on communication, compromise and open mindedness. Not one of us is in charge, and not one of us makes the decisions. There is no such thing as "I want to do this." with the response being "No." When my partner and I make any decisions, especially that affect our children, it is a conversation, always. No, this doesn't always result in one person 'winning' or getting exactly what we want, but we base our lives around things that make sense..and cloth diapering just makes sense. If something makes sense, we do it. If something doesn't make sense, we don't do it.
If there is no legitimate reason not to do something, do it. What exactly are your partner's reasons for not cloth diapering, do they make sense? What are your reasons for not disposable diapering, do those make sense?
Let's have fun with a little scenario that you are telling me is happening.
Scenario #1 You say to him "I want to cloth diaper."
He says no.
Result: You don't cloth diaper.
Let's switch that up.
Scenario #2 He says "Let's disposable diaper"
YOU say "No."
Result: You'll still probably end up disposable diapering?
That's literally what you're saying. First of all, I don't know why disposable diapers are the default. Secondly, how is that fair? If you are truly saying no to disposable diapering, than you wouldn't be doing it. Period. What you're doing is putting his word and opinion at a higher importance than yours. That doesn't sound like communicating and compromising at all.
I can't give an answer to the age old "how do I convince my partner to cloth diaper?" because I just don't get how that's a thing you should have to do in your relationship. Discuss, Inform, educate, not convince.
13. "I can't cloth diaper because I don't know how."
In this day and age of technology, you have access to anything and everything you could ever want to learn at your fingertips. As far as I'm concerned, the days of using the excuse "I don't know" are pretty much over. May I use this as an opportunity to self promote my cloth diaper vlogs:
Point is, if you want to do something - you will find a way to do it.
This isn't an issue of wanting to cloth diaper or not, if you don't want to cloth diaper who gives a shit? Do whatever you want to do. But if you truly wanted to cloth diaper, you won't find excuse after excuse not to. Just do it and shut up about it :)
Love you

Drugstore BB Creams
BB Creams have taken over the drugstore, and there are way too many to choose from. In order to demonstrate how they look and feel, I made this (super long) video comparing the drugstore BB Creams. In this video you'll find a minute overview of each product individually with a demonstration, a list of what that product promises to do, it's stats and my personal opinion of how it functions.
To avoid a whole blog post repeating what the video includes, I'm just going to add some pictures here of the swatches.
Here's the video!
