While we are into Q3, I thought I’d take a moment to go through the products I emptied during the last quarter! There’s quite a few new faces this time around as I finished up some newer products so let’s dive into what was worth repurchasing and what was not. Continue reading
I feel like it has been awhile since I last did a favourites post as I didn’t do one for April! However, my habits have been pretty consistent across the past two months so let’s chat about both. The theme of the past two months for me has been simplicity. I haven’t been wearing much makeup, but when I have been I have been heavily using the products mentioned below! Continue reading
The Sephora Spring VIB Sale seems like it is a lot later than usual this year. It sounds like the sale is happening around the beginning of May this year. With that in mind, I decided to put together my annual wish list! I honestly think I’ll only purchase a couple of items, but it is nice to put together a list of all the products I’m interested in… just in case š Continue reading
Did March actually happen? I think I blinked because we are now in the first week of April and a fourth of the way through 2019. March was a super busy month so I’m not surprised it came and went in a flash. I have a feeling April will be the same way. But alas, let’s chat about the products that I was loving in the month of March! Continue reading
February just flew by! I guess it should as it is the shortest month of the year. It was a month of consistent blogging and continuing other positive routines that I’ve incorporated into my life. I feel pretty great about this past month so let’s chat about the products that I was favouring during February! Continue reading
For the last couple of years I’ve been drawn to Drunk Elephant products. However, I always admired them from a distance… never taking the plunge. I have to admit, their high price tag always deterred me from giving them a try. However, while browsing Sephora’s website I noticed they had two sets of deluxe sized serums/oils. One meant for daytime (Rise + Glow) and one meant for nighttime (Night Bright). They were a reasonable price and I figured they would provide me with enough product to see what the hype was about. I’ve been using them for a little over a month now (and still have product left!) so I’m ready to share my thoughts on them. Spoiler alert: I’m hooked.
Drunk Elephant’s philosophy is to only use ingredients that directly benefit skin health or support the effectiveness of their formulations. They are very much centred around avoiding what they call the ‘suspicious 6’ which they find to be at the root of almost every skin issue which makes their products suitable for all skin types. In case you were wondering, the suspicious 6 areĀ essential oils, drying alcohols, silicones, chemical screens, fragrance/dyes and SLS. Continue reading
I usually talk about how ‘fast’ a month goes by but was it just me or did January seem particularly long this year? It could have been due to the major cold snap we had for the last couple of weeks at the month that really made it feel long. If I don’t have to see -40 with the windchill on the weather network again for the rest of the winter I’ll be a happy girl! January however was a great month – it was a month of setting goals and working on achieving them. Though I didn’t get as much blogging done as I would have liked to, I did spend the month working on some other goals of mine. Continue reading
