Tarte | Salt Lyfe Eyeshadow Palette: Review and Swatches

Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links and the products featured were provided for review.

It's been a while since I tested new makeup so it felt wonderfully nostalgic to play with a fairly recently released eyeshadow palette from Tarte, a brand that seems to be churning out one palette after another. I'm not complaining though, because when it comes to eyeshadow palettes, variety is key so it's always good to have options, especially since Tarte eyeshadow formulation has remained consistently great and affordable over the years. The Salt Lyfe Eyeshadow Palette (C$49 for 12 x 1.8 g) is a limited edition neutral palette featuring 12 extra-large, beach-inspired shades. To see my review and breakdown of the palette, click......

CLOSED: The Happy Sloths | Five-Year Blogiversary Giveaway (Valued at ~$900)!

It's kind of hard to believe but last month (January 30th, to be exact) marked the fifth blogiversary of The Happy Sloths. Five years ago, I started this blog with my friend Angela, with the hopes of doing something fun with our love for makeup while making our way through university. Never have I ever imagined that the blog would grow into what it has become today. As some of you may know, I am still in school (five years later, hard to believe, I know...) and this blog is by no means my way of making a living. However, it has truly become a huge part of my life. Blogging is what I do for fun, what I do to relax, and what I do to let my creativity flow. For me, it's a big accomplishment and I feel so lucky and proud. So in celebration of this momentous occasion and to give back to you, my readers, I am hosting a "little" giveaway. Whether you stumbled upon the site in search of some lipstick swatches or have been around since the beginning, I thank you! To enter this giveaway (valued at ~$900 CAD, open internationally), click......
