perfume review: paris hilton platinum rush
I am no stranger to Paris Hilton perfumes. In fact, my collection is finally complete. For the last couple of years, I have been looking for the follow up to Rose Rush. Platinum Rush was released in 2018 but despite constantly keeping my eyes peeled....I couldn't manage to get my hands on a bottle. Personally, I don't like to order fragrances online because you never really know if the bottle will make it to your doorstep unscathed. So instead, I looked in every perfume and beauty shop imaginable trying to hunt down this bottle. Sadly my search was unsuccessful. On the plus side? My mom was able to track down a bottle and gifted it to me over the holidays. Since then, I've been reaching for this fabulous fragrance day after day.

fill your life with experiences.
Niagara has become my home away from home lately. It's true! I've gone four times in the past four months. There were discount shopping trips, holiday musicals, and concerts galore. One thing is certain: this entertainment area always has plenty to see and do. Most recently, my husband and I visited Niagara Falls to celebrate Valentine's Day. We jetted off for a few days to see a concert, eat delicious food, and do some sightseeing. In case you're curious - or are dreaming of your own Niagara getaway - here are a few of my recent vacation highlights.

makeup revolution week: eyeshadow palettes (3 palettes 3 looks)
One thing I cannot seem to get enough of? Eyeshadow palettes. My obsession with eyeshadow palettes knows no bounds. I can't even imagine the number of palettes I've reviewed here on the creation of beauty is art. over the years! It is something of an obsession. So imagine my delight when I discovered that this holiday set from Revolution (aka Makeup Revolution or Makeup Revolution London) included not one, not two, but three eyeshadow palettes. There is the Metallic Crush Pigment Palette, Ultimate Neutrals Pigment Palette, and the Velvet Mattes Pigment Palette. Since there were so many eyeshadows to test and try...I decided to do a 3 palettes 3 looks post. So there will be one makeup look made from each palette along with a mini review of the overall quality. Here goes!

makeup revolution week: haul + review (setting sprays and primers)
There are many reasons the holiday season is special. The traditions, time spent with family, and all of the beautiful twinkling lights. Another perk? Fabulous holiday beauty sets. The months of November and December are notorious for all of the special makeup and beauty collections. During that time, I was given a holiday set loaded with items from Revolution (also commonly called Makeup Revolution or Makeup Revolution London). The amount of product inside was shocking - in a good way. There were twelve items in all with all but one of those items being full-sized versions. With so much to test, try, and review from the brand...I wanted to highlight and dig into those products properly. That is why this is the first post of the latest theme week here on the creation of beauty is art. Ready to find out what is inside the holiday box? Learn more about each product? Keep reading to find out all the essential information about this holiday release.
