Skincare Review: IT Cosmetics Confidence in a Cream, Cleanser & Eye Cream | Darling Magpie

September 8, 2018 Danielle D'Ornellas
It-Cosmetics-Confidence-Skincare-3.jpg

When other beauty bloggers do projects where they do a "full face" of makeup from one brand, I always watch but I know I wouldn't ever do it myself. I find it rare that I'd like the entirety of what one brand is offering to even attempt to do something like that. But when it comes to skincare? I think IT Cosmetics might be just the thing for me!

July 2018 Empties & No Buy Challenge Update

August 5, 2018 Danielle D'Ornellas

Back when I started the no-buy challenge in February, I had no idea how long I would be running it. Three months? Six months? A year??? But I'm happy to say, I've fully completed six months now and July was probably the easiest month of all.

Skincare Review: Vichy Aqualia Thermal Light Cream & Rehydrating Serum

July 30, 2018 Danielle D'Ornellas
VichyAqualiaThermalCreamSerum-Bottles.jpg

Over the last few months I've been downsizing my makeup, beauty and skincare products and this means I don't always replenish my basics if I have something similar that "does the trick" in the meantime that I want to use up. But lucky for me, I was sent Vichy's Aqualia Thermal Light Cream & Serum to test out RIGHT when I'd finished similar products in my skincare regimen. But would they live up to their predecessors? Find out!

June 2018 Empties & No Buy Challenge Update

July 15, 2018 Danielle D'Ornellas
June 2018 Empties

June was the fifth month of my no-buy challenge and while it wasn’t a "successful" one in my opinion, it definitely gave me some food for thought. While I finished quite a few products this month, the real lessons came when I looked over my receipts and realized I'd fallen into a few old habits without realizing it.

Wedding time! #TashJam2019
I've been struggling with writer's block and photography block lately, probably due to perfectionist tendencies & anxiety. My goal this month is to try to unmoor myself from these feelings and just do what I want to do. That said, here are some UNEDITED photos of @opi's #OpiTokyo connection of Suzi-San Climbs Fuji-San. Gorgeous spring-like teal that I was drawn to immediately. Only took two coats for this consistency but it can flood if you're not careful (as you can see). #pr #gotitfree

Sprained my ankle pretty badly last week during the worst snowstorm of the year and had to take multiple trips to the doctor's to figure out the damage while also navigating the coldest temps all winter and an aircast all the same time. BUT THAT DOESN'T MATTER because I was still able to have a great time celebrating @dr.tashbot's upcoming nuptials and made a cool piece of art at the same time. We didn't take any pictures together because we were having such a badass time. ♥️♥️♥️ my friend!

Sprained my ankle yesterday, no break but still need an ultrasound on Friday. So much for yoga! I have at least three events I'll need to attend this week and will have to do so in my aircast. At least my cats will keep me really warm.

Captain's Log: Jan 26, 2019. Still not a nail blogger despite my best attempts. This is @opi Berry Fairy Fun on my stubby little fingers but it does look good in the sunshine which we haven't had a lot of lately! Also, new back drop is kinda cool, too bad I sliced off some of my finger on my other hand putting it together. Instagram is Reality indeed! #beautybloggerlife
