My Favourite Blogs

I was originally inspired to start writing my own beauty blog just over a year ago after following a couple blogs fairly regularly throughout my time at university. I am going to discuss three of my favourite blogs below-- although I do follow many more, and constantly find new blogs as my interests change and develop.

1. Makeup by TiffanyD was the first beauty blog that I found. I had been searching for makeup looks using my new Naked palette and stumbled across Tiffany's YouTube channel. I quickly became addicted to watching all of her makeup tutorials and looking at all of her outfits on her blog. I love that this blogger uses a range of drug store products as well as very high end makeup. Her taste in clothing also seems to reflect this price range, making it really easy to mimic a lot of the looks that she posts.

2. Lauren Conrad I have been a fan of Lauren Conrad since her days on "The Hills"-- mostly because I thought she had the best fashion sense of all the girls on the show. I still follow Lauren for fashion and hair styles and love how helpful her website's makeup tips are (ex. find the best red lipstick for your skin tone). She even has recipes and home decor advise!

3. Eau de Cafe This isn't a beauty blog (although this blogger also has a nail blog featuring tons of awesome nail designs), but it is still one of my favourite blogs to keep up with. Eau de Cafe features cafes all over Montreal but also in other cities that the blogger travels too; the blog also discusses fragrances that the blogger uses. I have learnt a lot about coffee and found lots of awesome cafes since I started reading this blog (I went to school in Montreal), and would also recommend checking out this blogger's incredible nail designs
