I cannot say that I liked this product. The scent was extremely off putting and it didn’t feel like it was doing enough to hydrate my skin throughout the day. It also had a very strange grainy texture which did not blend in well on my skin or allow me to apply makeup over it. I did appreciate that it has SPF 30 in it but I cannot see myself ever reaching for this product, even if it does absorb excess oil and help with my breakouts.

really enjoyed the Clarifying Exfoliant. I was already using a salicylic acid toner before and this one was a great addition to my every day routine to help prevent breakouts. This formula is also very gentle and I love that it doesn’t have a strong scent like the other products.

I am an avid user of the Benzoyl Peroxide cream and have used it on my face and underarms before! It’s great at killing acne and odour causing bacteria on the skin while still being extremely gentle. Careful though because it will bleach your towels and the sleeves of your sweaters. I will definitely continue to use this product.

The new CLEAN RESERVE H2EAU Nectarine Petal by @cleanbeauty_collective is part of an amazing eco-conscious and sustainable fragrance collection inspired by water, nature’s most gentle ingredient. It is also cruelty-free, gluten-free, phthalate-free, and vegan.
I love fruity floral scents and this fragrance is a perfect example with key notes of nectarine and peach blossom 🍊🌸I’ve been wearing this scent non-stop and it honestly lasts so long which I didn’t expect from a water-based formula. I’m super excited to try all of the other scents in the H2EAU collection

Blue Lizard is not a brand I’ve used before but I have always wanted to! I heard so much about how amazing Australian sunscreens are and this one definitely proved to be. While the weather in canada is still cold, I still continue to apply sunscreen on my face daily. The formula feels really nice and light and absorbs fairly easily. While it does leave a slight white cast, it is very easy to blend into the skin. The product also worked well under makeup, while running, and working out and didn’t leave me feeling greasy. I am excited to try this sunscreen on the rest of my body in the summer! -

I’ve been an avid fan of aluminum free deodorant for a few years now and have always had good experiences with them. Tom’s is definitely a brand I’ve dabbled with before and I always appreciated the transparency of the ingredients and sustainability of their products. Tom’s is of course cruelty free and also uses components made with 100% recycled plastic. This dermatologist tested deodorant came in the scent Rose Vanilla which I’m a huge fan of. The product also provided long-lasting odour and wetness protection without feeling like a heavy antiperspirant that always leaves my skin feeling dry. I will definitely continue to keep Tom’s in mind when purchasing an aluminum free deodorant. -

. This product is pretty much everything I look for in a moisturizer. It provides deep and long-lasting hydration and it’s FRAGRANCE FREE! I definitely feel like it is a much simpler product but it does a much better job than the previous formulation. I will definitely continue using this moisturizer and consider purchasing once finished! -
YSL Lashclash Mascara

This product claims to volumize and stay on for up to 48 hours. I can honestly say that is 10000% correct! While I did struggle to take this mascara off at the end of the day with all manner of removers and oils, I can really appreciate the longevity of the product. The colour is a great shade of the black and the formula was really easy to work with and build on for extra volume. I am also the kind of person whose eyes water up constantly throughout the day and the waterproof formula really kept up well without any running or smudges throughout the day. I also am in love with the component, YSL really knocked it out of the park with the luxurious, sleek, and minimalistic packaging. I will definitely continue using this mascara and consider ysl for future beauty purchases! -

This little device removes hair so easily and I didn't even feel it. I will definitely be swapping out this little guy for plucking and facial razors. I initially used it on my upper lip area but as I got more comfortable with it, I was able to use it easily around my eyebrows and on the peach fuzz on my cheeks which I previously removed with a facial razor. This is a great product and I will definitely be purchasing replacements for the hair remover bit in the future. Amazing!

I trialed this primer over the course of one week, wearing makeup for a variety of time periods ranging from 3-12 hours. On application I did note that it felt super light on the skin, as if there was nothing there. It also instantly blurred pores and left my skin feeling fresh and ready for makeup application. I really liked the fresh botanical scent as well which was NOT overpowering at all! All of my makeup products reacted well to the primer and I didn’t notice any separation or patchiness once finished. Over the course of my various wear tests, I noted very minimal oiliness on my skin throughout the day and honestly didn’t even feel like taking my makeup off at the end of the day. I will definitely continue using this primer
