One of the issues those of us with oily skin have is that despite the oil, our skin still gets tight and dry. Often in an effort to control oil and rid ourselves of that shine and large pores, we cleanse, exfoliate and tone our skin to death until it’s stripped. Then our skin is…
I have no shortage of skincare stuffs in my stash. I try lots and lots of products (so you don’t have to) and some I love, some I learn to love, some give me zits, some give me a rash, some make my skin peel. When a new Rodan+Fields regimen came across my beauty desk,…
This season is wreaking havoc on my hands. My gorgeous nails have snapped off one by one, and are now short and sweet, if you will. In the meantime, I was desperate for something more intense than my oils. I have and love LUSH Lemony Flutter, but I had read a few fellow bloggers raving…
We’ve all tried night creams, amirite? They are usually heavier than a day cream, as they are intended to address our skincare needs when our skin is optimally ready for help, and this time happens to be while we sleep. We slather them on and hope for a miracle. I recently spent some quality time…
I love Consonant. They are a natural beauty company, and their logo “what goes on your body goes in your body” is food for thought, indeed.

The oils used in facial preparations have a molecular structure that works with our skin….
Ugh there is nothing like a cold Canadian winter. The temps dip below zero, the furnace cranks up, and everything becomes dry, crinkly and papery. I actually dry my laundry by draping it all over the place just to get extra moisture in the air. Showers and baths feel good because they are, well, water,…
Feeling a little dehydrated after a summer sun, wind and being outdoors? While we brace ourselves for cooler temperature and central heating, it is time to moisturize, moisturize, moisturize* and pamper the skin you’re in. I love the cotton/cloth masks for deep moisturizing, but I think I may have found the cream equivalent to delivering…
Jane’s Lip Balm Obsession, Chapter 1 million, continues. And the latest I have tried is a new offering from Biotherm, Beurre de Lévres, aka Lip Butter. I love the Biotherm line, it is gentle, the products smell good, and they don’t make outrageous claims. I used a lip gloss they made a few years ago-…
