I don’t have a lot of experience with REN skincare, but that is going to change. I’ve started using their Keep Young & Beautiful SH²C Serum as part of my morning skincare routine and I LOVE it. I became obsessed with learning more about the line after discovering it at Space NK in Florida. They had…
Summer is here! Yipeeee! If you’re like me, you couldn’t be happier to peel off the layers and bask in the heat and sometimes, the sun. Not on purpose, other than to dry off after swimming, as that feels heavenly and healing. Just getting around in our day to day lives exposes us to enough…
Hourglass is one of my favourite cosmetic lines. Not only are the cosmetics of the highest quality and perform above and beyond the call of beauty-duty, but their packaging is gorgeous. Hourglass products feel like high quality items and there is nothing flimsy about the construction or the design. They feel nice in the hand…
Summertime means outdoor music and festivals season is upon us! Time to bust out your prettiest and breeziest summer looks and look lovely while keeping your cool. This can be tougher than it seems under the hot summer sun, while we sweat and melt in the humidity. But I have a few tips for staying…
Not sure how I ended up on the Jurlique website – maybe I wanted some more rosewater? At any rate, I ended up on this page which is their Scent of Rose page. Sounded good to me. But what sounded even better was their Essence of Rose Roll-On Fragrance Oil. I love the scent of Jurlique’s…
I thought I would share two items I am LOVING right now. These are items that have earned permanent spots in my collection for one simple reason – the reason anything becomes something I can’t be without – they work. Vichy LiftActiv Serum 10 Eyes & Lashes is a new product in the LiftActiv line,…
I recently got an email asking me which cleanser I might recommend for someone with combination skin. She did not want a cleanser that would dry the skin, and is using retinols on her skin. That got me to thinking about the cleansers in my life. I use lots anti-aging stuff on my face, and…
Ok why did it take me so long to try this stuff? Hydraluron, made by Indeed Labs, is a gel-serum designed to boost the performance of any moisturizer. It is to be used under your creams/lotions/serums and is basically full of hyaluronic acid goodness, meaning it draws moisture into the skin, keeps it there, making…
Jean Naté After Bath Splash is another terrific product from my youth that seems to have disappeared from Canadian drugstores. Happily, it is everywhere in the US! At $10 for a huge bottle, how could I not get it? I used to love the splash, the spray cologne and even the powder. It was the…
I have mentioned La Roche Posay Cicaplast in passing, which isn’t really fair. It is a miraculous product I can’t be without and deserves a solid mention. Cicaplast was created to deal with several different skin irritations like dry patches, chapped skin, and skin that is tender and healing post-dermatological procedures like peels and resurfacing. I…
