All Time Favourite Beauty Oils

Friday, 30 May 2014

I'm OBSESSED with oils! I love using them for my face, hair, body and so much more. The best thing about them is that they are 100% natural and full of skin-loving & healing ingredients. Here are my TOP 4 OILS FOR MY FACE:  1. ARGAN OIL:   Who hasn't heard of this baby by now? It's my absolute favourite multipurpose oil  that I primarily as a moisturizer for my face. It is a very dry oil and unlike other oils it doesn't leave a greasy residue behind. Massage onto your face and skin quickly absorbs it in! I love to use this on make-up free days and on nights when I'm not applying other serums. Its my go-to product when my skin needs a break. When I wake up...

5 Beauty Products Not Worth The Hype

Saturday, 24 May 2014

I may BREAK ALOT OF HEARTS with this... SO before I get into this: SO SORRY if these are YOUR HOLY GRAIL products!!! Please don't hurt me (LOL). I know these products are LOVED by many, but sadly they just didn't work out for me for different reasons--- I'm not saying they are absolute horrendous product rather that they didn't live up to the HYPE for me.

Breaking 5 Common Beauty Myths

Saturday, 10 May 2014

1. Myth: "I must use a specially formulated Eye-Cream for the delicate area around my eyes".  Fact: There is no evidence or research that indicates that the under-eye area needs special ingredients (or what these "special ingredients" should be) that are any different from what you use on your face or neck. You can use the exact same well-formulated face cream under your eye area as well. Even if your under-eye skin is different (extra dry) you can still use a face cream for dry skin to treat it. An eye-cream simply allows companies to sell a cream in a significantly smaller container for a significantly higher price. We all know how pricey eye-creams can get! 2. Myth: "My skin...

Setting Sprays: MAC Fix + VS. Urban Decay All Nighter

Monday, 5 May 2014

  MAC Fix + and UD All Nighter are both "setting or finishing sprays" for your face but they are really are not comparable to each other as they meant for completely different purposes. I love and use both sprays depending on my needs. One's great for a dewy look and another is great for long-lasting makeup. MAC Fix + Skin-Refresher or Finishing Mist   Described by MAC as:  An aqua-spritz of vitamin and minerals, infused with a calm-the-skin blend of green tea, chamomile, cucumber, topped off with the fresh, natural, energizing scent of Sugi. Adds radiance, finishes makeup. Spray it on. Skin drinks it up! It is often referred to as "just glorified-water" but I beg...
