We have all heard the reports of how microbeads are bad for the environment. The Canadian government recently added microbeads to their list of toxic substances under the Environmental Protection Act. Many brands were already pulling microbeads from products or plan to over the next few years as they reformulate their products and bring out new […]

June Empties
It is no surprise that I don’t have a lot of empties this month. We got rid of a lot of close to empty products when sorting ahead of the move so my June empties are mostly things I have used up after opening new ones this month with a few that I did not […]
Avon Anew Clean Skincare
Throughout the winter, I am pretty loyal to Marcelle’s Ultra Gentle Cleansing Gel but once summer hits, it just isn’t enough for my oily t-zone and I have been trying out several skincare lines to find something that is gentle but will help remove waterproof makeup and clogged pores from sunscreen and sweat. One of […]
Keep Your Feet Cool With Avon Foot Works Pineapple Chill
After a day of moving, I am exhausted and my feet are killing me. I have been walking up and down stairs with furniture, books, other belongings (and a lot of makeup) and just want to curl up and sleep for a week. I know I will regret not taking care of the aches and […]
Don’t Fry – Wear Sunscreen
If you didn’t know, today is Don’t Fry Day because as the weather warms up, we need a reminder to slather on that sunscreen. As a pale girl (ghostly pale to pink), I will burn in minutes without at least SPF30 so I layer it on from sunscreen to SPF additives in makeup or skincare. […]

Get Your Feet Summer Ready With Footlogix Medical
The recent warmer weather had me pulling out my spring/summer clothes but I realized that my feet are nowhere near ready for sandals. After a winter hiding away in boots where you don’t worry about a perfect pedi or some dry skin, they are in need of a little TLC before that pale skin gets to […]
My March Empties
I always think to myself that I should keep my empties to do an end of month empties post, but our place is tiny and keeping the extra clutter doesn’t make sense. For March, I put a bag on the inside of my closet to remind me to keep them, so here it is – […]
Keeping Skincare Simple
I love Bioderma’s micellar water but am always on the hunt for cheaper alternatives to my favourites. It gives me more money to spend on things I love, like nail polish! I tried Simple’s micellar water a few months ago and really liked it so when Chick Advisor had a product review club opportunity for […]
