Summer is pretty much here, and OPI’s Chamomile Mint Massage lotion is here just in time. The lasting thing I like in the summer is putting on a sticky lotion or body butter that’s just going to make me feel hotter than I need. Using the Chamomile Mint lotion isn’t just moisturizing – it’s absolutely [...]
Summer Must Have: Dr. Dennis Gross Alpha Beta Glow Pad for Body
Nothing makes me like I’m ready for summer than a nice fake tan. It makes me golden and like I’ve spent a day at the beach, but without any sun damage. Plus, a tan makes you look more toned and healthy, so it’s a win-win no matter how you look at it. I’ve usually used [...]
Spring Shower Must-Have
We’re all about the must-haves today, first the neon pink lippie, a BB cream, and now this shower scrub, new to the Almond range at L’Occitane. This scrub gets our pick because it foams and scrubs which makes shower time that much more productive. The scrub is well-formulated because it’s lightly scented, has almond oil, [...]
New Affordable Beauty: Clean & Clear Morning Burst Body Washes
I’m loving the newest from Clean & Clear. Body washes that come in strong scents and are great ways to start your day. The body washes have lots of lather and come in gigantic bottles. The three scents are: Charge – Pomegranate and Orange Splash – Mango and Papaya Splash – Wildberry and Guava. The [...]
Coconut Milk and Honey
I love the flavour of Coconut, both in food and in my potions and lotions, and the best new thing I’ve found that gets my mouth watering is my J.R. Watkins Coconut hand and body lotion! The lotion is nicely scented but not over-the-top so it won’t annoy people sitting beside you on the train. [...]
L’Occitane Shea Butter Ultra Rich Body Scrub – Luxury in the Shower
Believe it or not, I got back from vacation with my skin dryer than ever. All I wanted to do was bathe in a vat of oil, but first I had to get rid of dead dry skin that had accumulated over the two cold weeks. I was lucky. L’Occitane’s Shea Butter Ultra Rich Body [...]
Mary Kay Thinking of You – Fragranced Lotion that Actually Moisturizes
As much as I love the accompanying lotion to my favourite perfume, the problem that I frequently have is that there’s usually little to none moisturizing provided by the lotion or gel-lotion sold over the counter. My only hope has been the strongly scented Body Shop body butters that come out each year but sometimes [...]
Upper Canada Soap Naturally Coarse Salt Scrub
When it’s super cold outside, I think that it’s even more important to really take care of your skin. One way to get skin that really glows is to scrub regularly and I’m a stickler for scrubbing on a really regular basis. I’ve tried every scrub out there, and Upper Canada Soap Company’s Naturally Salt [...]
Lovely Things From Aveeno
Recently, Aveeno has updated their product line and it includes a really lovely set of body washes from their Active Naturals line. There’s a set of different kinds, but my favourite is the hydrating one that smells like fig and shea butter. Ever since L’Artisan’s Fig perfume, I have been obsessed with all things fig, [...]
More from Aveda’s Green Science Line
Adding to its collection of botanically driven formulas, Aveda is rolling out with a Perfecting Cleanser and Replenishing Toner. When it comes to my wash-up routine, a toner is a must. I’m never satisfied with the depth of cleaning I get with just a cleanser so I always call for back up from a toner. [...]
