Beauty || Last Days Of Summer || @VichyCanada Favs

I can’t believe we are in our last days of summer. I thought I would share with you the products I’ve been loving this season from my friends at Vichy. From hydration, fortifying to sun damage these three beauty secrets have you covered. It’s the perfect time to try a few of their lines because they are running a Back to School promo! Use code SCHOOL to save. Here are my current 3 top product picks from Vichy:

Mineral 89: I can’t say enough about Mineral 89, it’s my daily defence against stress, pollinates and the environment in general. It strengthens and hydrates my skin. I love wearing under my makeup in the morning and as a base under my serums at night.

Quenching Mineral Mask: This mask is so hydrating! Not to mention it helps amazing. If you’ve been looking for an intensive gel based moisture mask this one fits the bill.

After Sun Hydrating Milk: I’m outside constantly, so I love this formula that not only helps repair the sun damage I’ve done, it also helps with future exposures. I’m happy to report it’s paraben free. What is not to love!

Let’s Talk: Essential Oil #SpreadWellness Edition || @SajeWellness

I’m an essential oil lover, that’s a fact. So naturally I gravitate to Saje locations monthly. Their mission is to help you feel better, naturally through plant-derived alternatives to pharmaceutical medicine. I can’t say enough good things about this Canadian owned sustainable and eco-conscious company. Whenever I share them on my IG stories I always get asked what are my most used products from Saje. Here are my top 5:

My Marble Ultrasonic Diffuser: Because my little ones are too young for direct skin contact with essentials oils, I love to diffuse their powers into the air we breathe around our home. Aromatic and purifying this is a perfect touch to at home wellness.

The Pocket Farmacy Remedy Convenience Kit: This is my most used item. I carry it wherever we go, especially when traveling. And it’s a great way to sample several of Saje’s best sellers. I can’t live without the Peppermint Halo for headache relief, it’s an on-the-go lifesaver.

Beauty || Skincare Secrets Geisha Style || @Tatcha_v

TATCHA as you know has made almost every favourite beauty product list I’ve made for the past 4 years. If you are not familiar with them, their products are carried online directly through TATCHA, Sephora, Barneys New York, Spring online and goop. I love their classical approach to skincare encompassing Japanese beauty secrets passed down by generations with a less is more theme. You know what goes into the products thus you know exactly what you are putting onto your skin and into your body. If you haven’t discovered this brand I would definitely give them a try. Here are my current TATCHA go to products that will suite anyone’s beauty routine:

One Step Cleansing Oil ℅ : I love using this residue free all in one cleaners with my Clarisonic brush at night. It completely removes all my makeup gently with no irradiation on my sensitive skin.

Beauty || Luxury products you don’t want to miss || Skincare Confessions

Looking for splurge worthy beauty products this summer? I’ve got my latest favourites that are sure to impress. From skincare to hair styling, I’m covering all the bases my beauty junkies. Here are my Top 5!

Herbivore Lapis Oil: So many of you have been asking what facial oil I’ve been wearing this summer, it’s no surprise this luxurious oil made my list. I’ve talked about it before and we all know I’ll talk about it again. It’s quick-absorbing formula allows vitamins, fatty acids, and antioxidants to get into your skin without clogging pores. So many people ask if I break out when using a facial oil… No! Instead your face stops producing excess oil and finds a natural balance!

Rodial Snake Serum: For all my ladies aging gracefully this is the serum for you! It’s a perfect combo of complexion glow and skin surface smoothing. It’s like blur in a bottle … wear it at night with a moisturizer or I like to mix it into my foundation in the morning.

IGK Beach Club Texture Spray: After the perfect beach wave? It adds volume and texture to some limp hair. It has a build-able formula but I find a little goes along way.

Biotherm Skin Fitness Smoothing Treatment: Let me start by saying the ENTIRE line is amazing, it was hard for me just to pick one… but this moisture rich treatment is amazing for dry patches so I had to include it. If you have reactive skin, this gentle formula shouldn’t effect it. I’m out in the sun and elements so my skin takes a beating, this treatment is perfect for rebuilding my moisture barrier on my skin surface. My hubby loves it too!

LIERAC Paris The Supreme Mask: The premium line from this luxury beauty brand is unreal. We all know I’m a mask addict, so this all-in-one youth boosting treatment was my favourite by far. I love the smoothing effect it has on my skin after just one application. Continue reading →
