MAY BEAUTY FAVOURITES

Welcome back for another installment of my Monthly Beauty Favourites posts! Today I’m chatting summer beauty and sharing some of my favourite liquid lipsticks, lip liners, a new brow pencil, a gorgeous baked bronzer, a stunning ombre blush, and my all-time favourite eyeshadow to complete bronze and gold looks.

I placed a Colourpop order in May to test out some of their newer launches, so most of my favourites today are from Colourpop — one of my favourite affordable makeup brands. I also tried some products from the Lise Watier limited edition Summer 2016 Escale Collection and found a great bronzer for the summer! If you’re looking to inject some new life into your beauty routine this summer or incorporate a few fun new shades, this post is for you. Let’s chat summer beauty!

WHAT TO WEAR TO | SPRING WEDDINGS

Wedding season has arrived! Every year, what to wear to spring weddings is something I’m asked about frequently — so today’s post is another installment in my WHAT TO WEAR TO series. It’s such a popular request, I wrote a post about it last year before I was able photograph my style content! Today I’m chatting about what I’m wearing to spring 2016 weddings when the weather is still a bit unpredictable (FYI, it snowed in Calgary last weekend and it was sprinkling when we photographed this post!). I may be a bit biased because of my love for flowers, but that I think floral print is perfect for spring weddings. It’s colourful and fresh, and there are so many interpretations of it each spring. From soft subdued, to bold and colourful like I’m wearing here, you’re sure to find a print that compliments your personal style. I’ve included links to my favourite floral print dresses this season for every body type (pssst, the dress I’m wearing is under $40!). I also chat about choosing accessories to compliment a statement dress, along with my special occasion hair and makeup tips.

APRIL BEAUTY FAVOURITES

Hey guys! It seems like forever since my last monthly beauty favourites post, doesn’t it? It’s a few days later than usual because I bumped it back to coordinate with my In Search of Yummyness In The Kitchen With interview, so today I’m excited to share my April Beauty Favourites with you! Like last month, I gravitated towards cooler purple tones on the eyes and peaches and corals on the lips. It was an especially busy month and I tend to fall back on my favourite formulas when I don’t have time to search out and test new products!

This month I fell in love with a stunning neon-purple eyeshadow, a gorgeous peach lipstick, an array of peach and coral glosses, an affordable new setting spray, and a new dry shampoo from my favourite brand. If you have a few minutes to relax this Sunday, grab a beverage and a snack and let’s chat about some great beauty products!

COME HANG OUT IN MY KITCHEN

Today’s post is something a little different! I’m excited to share a look inside my kitchen as part of the In Search of Yummyness In the Kitchen With Series. Shareba and I are both members of the Food Bloggers of Canada and we’ve always enjoyed keeping up with each other online. I was honoured when she asked me to be part of her new series, where she takes a look inside the kitchens of her favourite bloggers! You can hop over to her post for the interview, where she asks me things like what’s in my fridge, what I make for dinner on a hectic weekday, what I like to serve when I’m entertaining and what my favourite restaurants in Calgary are. I also let you in on some of my biggest recipe fails since I’ve started blogging! In my post today I’m sharing lots more photos of our space, so come hang out in my kitchen — I have snacks, flowers and chilled rosé!

DIGITAL BLOOMS MAY 2016 | FREE TECH WALLPAPERS

Who’s ready for another installment of DIGITAL BLOOMS?! Rebecca and I are so thrilled with all the positive feedback you gave us last month! We’re happy you’re enjoying the series and excited to bring you some fresh new designs this month. May is going to be all about tulips here at JustineCelina (because who doesn’t love tulips?), so we thought it would be the perfect time create tulip-exclusive designs for May’s Digital Blooms! This month we were inspired by ombre hues and cascading patterns. Rebecca will also be chatting All About Tulips later this month (did you know there are different varieties of tulips?), so stick around if you’d like to learn more about these beauties!

If you missed last months post introducing this new series, here’s the gist — I’ve partnered with my friend and amazing flower designer Rebecca Dawn Design to bring you 3 free downloads on the 1st of each month. We’re teaming up to create some beautiful flower art inspired by seasonal flowers, foliage and a fresh colour palette! Now you can enjoy the beauty of flowers year round on the background of your computer, tablet or phone. As always, these downloads are 100% free with no strings attached. Click through to get these gorgeous tulip-based designs onto your devices!

I’m so thrilled to bring you the first post in a collaborative, educational series ALL ABOUT FLOWERS! It’s an absolute joy to be able to work with my friend and amazing flower designer Rebecca Dawn Design to make flower education accessible — and what better time than spring to begin? Today we’re kicking the series off with An Introduction to Spring Flowers! In this information-packed post we’re answering your most common questions about flowers and sharing some insider tips and tricks.

You’ll learn about what’s in season, how to identify flowers, as well as how to care for and condition them. Rebecca shares her inspiration for this charming, freshly gathered arrangement and gives you some tips on how you can create your own!

SIMPLE PLEASURES

I’ve had an insane week. You probably have too, right? I’ve had tons of photoshoots and lots of personal and professional commitments, which are all wonderful things — but often weeks like this leave me feeling a bit frazzled and burnt out. I know we’re all starved for time these days, so today I thought I’d share a few Simple Pleasures that bring me joy, in hopes that they might bring you joy as well! These are a few of my favourite things and small acts of self care that don’t require a lot of time or money, but make a big difference to my mood and overall well being. Simply put, these are the little things I can do for myself even when I’m busy that make me happy and keep me sane! If you’re in need of some R&R, come kick back with me and take 15 minutes to do a few nice things for yourself.
