Head-To-Toe Acne Control ft. Neutrogena

The drugstore is a beauty lover's happy place, and while I haven't been shopping there nearly as much as I used to, I still enjoy coming across makeup and skin care items that end up performing better than I had expected. Coping with severe acne both on my face and body in my teenage years meant trying a lot of different affordable skin care brands to help calm my skin, one of them being Neutrogena. Today I will be revisiting an old favourite as well as share some new additions in my routine.

Fall 2015 Empties | Products I've Used Up!

The year is coming to an end, and to me that means clearing out the junk to start fresh so that I can keep my room tidy. I showed you a sneak peek of what products I've been holding onto for the purpose of this empties post in My Room Tour video, which also reminded me that I should get to sharing these with you... so let's get cracking!

G.M. Collin Skin Care | Review

I've been trying out a lot of new skin care lately and my skin has been coping pretty well with the changes. Dealing with acne prone skin does make my skin more sensitive, however as odd as it may sound, it has been under control for the last little while despite regularly switching up which products I use. You can see in my latest Get Ready With Me that I am currently not breaking out as much, and my scarring has faded quite a bit (but more on what I've been doing to help speed up the healing process in a future post coming very soon)! Through the Canadian Beauty Bloggers Network, I had the opportunity to test G.M. Collin Skin Care, a Montreal-based company specializing in natural, plant-based products. I was hooked up with six products suitable for my skin type, including a pretty neat lip product which I'm excited to share! I gave you a sneak peak of these in my Room Tour, and today I'm breaking down how this line has been working for me.

SOUFEEL Jewelry 925 Sterling Silver Christmas Charm Bracelet | The Perfect Gift For Her

You might recall that a while back I reviewed this beautiful charm bracelet from SOUFEEL Jewelry and it has honestly become my favourite piece I own. I've been wearing it constantly - I love how it can be worn with a casual outfit or on a special occasion. You can imagine my delight when SOUFEEL reached out to me again and asked if this time I would like to build my own Christmas charm bracelet! I got to pick five charm sets from their large selection of Christmas charms, many of which are on sale and also received a 925 Sterling Silver basic bracelet*. The charms are beyond adorable, and once again I have fallen completely in love with my new custom charm bracelet.

Get Ready With Me | Light Bronze Daytime Makeup ft. Eye of Horus Cosmetics

Over the last few weeks I have discovered a bunch of new brands, one of them being the Australian-based Eye of Horus Cosmetics. I first heard of this eye-focused makeup line through Tashina of Logical Harmony - her blog is one of my favourites as she always has the best recommendations when it come to vegan and cruelty-free beauty products. When I saw that she was holding a giveaway to win one of their gorgeous eye palettes, I couldn't resist entering and luck just happened to be on my side! I received the Isis Sun Goddess Palette and it has quickly become my new go-to. This eye shadow trio includes Enigma Myst, a shimmery peachy pink, Chalice Bronze (the name gives it away) and Sacred Husk, a shade somewhere between copper and bronze.

Softlips LUXE Lip Moisturizers + $50 Prize Pack Giveaway!

If there is one thing I think one can never have too much of, lip balm would be it. I keep a handful of lip balms a bit everywhere: on my vanity (see here), in my hand bag (more evidence here), not to mention I also have back ups since I go through them rather quickly... oh the perks of Canadian winters! The newest additions that have made it into my stash are the Softlips LUXE Lip Moisturizers in Creamy Coconut* and Silky Shea*. I am sure you are all familiar with this brand. Reflecting back however, I realized that I have actually never tried any of their products! Shocking, I know. One lucky reader is in for a treat too - I have partnered with Softlips to offer one lucky reader the chance to win a prize pack worth $50!

My Paula's Choice Skin Care Routine | Review

Paula's Choice* is one of those brands that has appealed to me ever since I came across reviews on their line years ago. I kept hearing how amazing their products are, especially regarding their skincare, so when the opportunity arose to try out their range, I, of course, could not turn it down! What I really appreciate is that Paula's Choice is there to help you build your own customized skin regimen suited for your specific skin type and concerns following a free personal skincare consultation which is just a phone call away. Keep reading to find out how you can save on their products, too!

Room Tour | Office Organization, Makeup Storage + Tips to Make a Small Room Look Bigger!

Well, the day has finally come. My room was in need of a major makeover, and although I did not document the before (you can still catch glimpses of my obnoxiously bright yellow room in some of my older videos), I decided to share my new space with you. This time around I opted for decor that gives off a simplistic and modern vibe, going with a grey and white colour scheme which I think represents my style a lot better. I envisioned a space that would inspire me and get my creative juices flowing and I'm happy to share that I have finally achieved that. I now spend most of my time here, working on my blog and videos or to just simply relax and get my mind off of things.

Lisap Easy Build Hair Reconstruction System: "Botox For Hair?" | Review

Has your hair not been looking or feeling its best lately? With winter slowly rolling in, it seems my skin is not the only victim of drier times. My hair has been looking quite sad for the last few weeks and in need of a good set of conditioning products so the opportunity to try the Lisap Easy Build Hair Reconstruction System*, described as "Botox for Hair" because of its anti-aging effect, could not have come at a better time! I first heard of this Italian brand from fellow blogger friend Cosmetic Proof not too long ago, so I was really excited to put some of their products to the test. Are these as good as they sound?

ZAYA Body Oil Blend With Grapefruit and Rosemary | Review

If a product is eco-friendly and made with essential oils, I am all over it! I was recently introduced to ZAYA, a Canadian skin care brand that produces natural oil blends that are skin part specific, targeting areas such as the face, eyes, hair, nails, belly and the one I have to share with you today, the Body Oil Blend*. Most of the oils used are organic and you can rest assured that their blends are free of mineral oil, synthetic fragrances and are cruelty free and vegan. Their products are also categorized by 'lifestyles' or moods, including serene, charismatic, alluring, flirty, majestic and playful, under which the Body Oil Blend falls.
