I love beauty mists. They are a great way to add moisture and glow to skin, instantly. They feel wonderful and uplifting and have a perfect spa vibe that adds to any beauty routine. Clockwise from top in the photo below: Vichy Mineralizing Thermal Water is charged in fifteen minerals, restores skin’s pH, soothes and calms…
Vichy has created a line of foundations that help reveal your skin and glow instead of masking it. In this Instagram age of beauty, we are now “baking” our skin, and using layers of correctors, bases and powders until there isn’t a pore in sight! Ugh, no thank you. That has never been my objective…
You’d have to be living under a rock to not know that injectable facial intervention of all kinds have now become mainstream. Young women (and men!) approach the beauty aspect of injectables like any other beauty practice, like haircuts, hair colour, laser hair removal, facials, photo-facials, lash extensions and manicures. Getting a little facial tweak here…
Ladies (and, frankly, men) it is that time of year again. Please take the pledge, and share with your friends. Friends don’t let friends have gnarly feet. It seems I can’t go anywhere without seeing feet that should have remained in socks. Taking care of our feet is self care luxury and does not have…
One of my recent rabbit hole stumblings around Instagram led me to the coolest organic skincare brand ever, French Girl Organics. Honestly, their simple and clean styling is designed for Instagram perfection. Frankly I have always loved spare modern design in beauty. Our dear benelovent leader, CHANEL, changed the beauty landscape with their simple design and…

I have the Eminence Clear Skin Targeted Treatment ($65 USD) and can’t imagine being without it! I love it so much I’m almost afraid that declaring my love…
I am a huge rose lover – in gardens, vases and in my skincare. Roses are chock full of delicious skincare stuff, in addition to smelling wonderful. Kosmea Australia is a skincare company that has built it’s line around organic rosehip oil, as well as the finest herbal, plant and flower extracts. You…
I’ve been a fan of glycolic acid products since the first time I tried them. So, what is it? Glycolic acid is a natural ingredient extracted from sugar cane. However these days it is often created in labs synthetically. It is one of the skincare ingredients known as AHA’s, or Alpha Hydroxy Acids. Glycolic acid is one…
One of my favourite luxury beauty brands is the French line, Leonor Greyl. The line was started by Mme Greyl and her husband in the late 60s and was the first hair care line to introduce vitamins into haircare. They created the first dandruff shampoo without coal tar. From their site: Designed and created with great…
It seems everyone is talking about double cleansing these days, and for good reason. I sort of dismissed it as an extra step I didn’t need. But, like a trooper, I tried it. And I really liked it! My face felt super clean, but not over-dry, and my skin was glowing. However my laziness got…
