“Seasons change and our love went cold” With the change of the seasons, I have to adjust my daily beauty regime; the winter months bring pale dry dull skin and subdued colours, so hot right? In the fall I had posted my go-to skin products, so I thought I would do a round-up of all the products I am loving this winter. My winter beauty regime requires a little bit more upkeep; I don’t feel like myself unless I have a natural sun-kissed glow and bright radiant complexion (at least that is the goal). A Touch Of Colour I have been experimenting with sunless tanners for the face and I…

Fall Capsule Wardrobe
Summer is my jam. I love sundresses and shorts and maxi dresses; I have way too much clothes for the three to four-month stint that I get once a year. Fall on the other hand is not exactly my preferred season to dress for. I have a love/hate relationship with it. I love all the pretty colours of the changing season, I love hot coffee on a crisp day and knitted sweaters, but I grimace the first day I have to slither back into my jeans after a long summer of sunkissed skin and short shorts. There is more layering involved and fall clothes are more function than fashion. It…

Skin Care: These are a Few of My Favourite Things
I usually try to stick with the same beauty regime, especially when I find products that work for my skin. I only switch things up if there is a change in the season, or my skin has gotten “used” to a certain product. A while ago I put together a list of the products that I found worked well for my daily routine, some of them I still cycle through but I do like to change things up and try new products so I put together an updated list of all the products that I am loving right now. I picked my top five choices and included how I use…

Blonde Hair Care: Maintaining the Perfect Shade of Blonde
In hairdresser speak my hair is naturally a level two or three, which in layman’s terms means almost black. I basically came in asking for every hairstylist’s nightmare, a dark-haired person requesting to leave the salon with their hair lifted to Kim Kardashian/Draco Malfoy blonde. Check out my Pinterest board to see my inspiration for my hair. It took me almost a whole year to get my hair to the colour that I wanted and the maintenance to keep it from getting brassy is intense. Ideally, I like to keep my hair in the realm of a grey-ish blond, so it effectively masks my greys (yes I have greys) and…

My Secret to Long Lashes
My Eyelash Journey I had never had my lashes done before but I was headed off on a few beach vacations last winter, my girlfriends and I decided to get lash extensions so we could have effortless lashes on our trip. I was only planning to have them while I was on vacation but I became obsessed. I hate doing my makeup, so waking up and having my lashes looking flawless was such a treat. It is definitely a tradeoff, you know the old adage, pain is beauty, this definitely applies to eyelash extensions. They were so irritating to my eyes, I had trouble sleeping with them on and I…
