This is one of those thicker cuticle oils that borders on more of an "ointment" and has been incredibly effective at helping soften and smooth my cuticle area as well as the area around my thumbs that can get red, dry and irritated. At first, you think that the product will not absorb, but then a minute later, it's all gone and my skin looks human again!

As a fan of the Amande collection, this hair and body mist is the perfect way to keep that scent going after a shower and while I love the Shimmery Body Oil, having something lightweight for the hair and as a touch up for throughout the day is so nice to have! The mist is also super fine and sprays lightly and comfortably. Packaging is glass and makes this product extra luxurious to reach for as a lot of hair and body mists come in plastic packaging. The scent obviously fades with time, but even after a couple of hours, my hair still smells very faintly of sweet almonds. This is a beautiful addition to my dresser right next to my L'Occitane Shimmering Oil!

Using this oil feels like the ultimate in self-care from the scent of sweet almond oil from Provence to the silky texture. I just wanted to use this from head to toe and then just cup my hands and inhale. If you already use the Amande body wish, then layering with this body oil helps make that fresh almond scent last a little longer. This is for sure going to be my moisturizer of the summer!

Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Cheek Tint
A little goes a long way with this product as it is quite pigmented, but the formula and texture are super blendable and lightweight so you can either use your fingers or a brush. The colour also truly lasts all day!

I have been using the All Nighter Makeup Setting Spray for over 10 years now! I even used it on my wedding day because it is the only setting spray with a nozzle that sprays pleasantly on the face, has a pleasant scent and works to make makeup last up to 16 hours! Make sure you give this guy a shake first and then spray away! It also dries down incredibly quickly without leaving a "tight" residue on the skin. I feel like when I don't use this spray, I get oilier on my chin and cheeks so this really DOES keep oil and sebum at bay!

This is some seriously bougie skincare with the new Renergie H.C.F. Triple Serum Eye bringing together three potent actives to target the full eye contour! Each active is housed in its own chamber protects against light and contamination so that when you are ready to use it, the ingredients are at their MOST active! I love niacinamide, hyaluronic acid and Vitamin C and when they are all in one OMG! Around the eye can be very sensitive so what I like about this serum is that I can use it all around my eye and not feel any irritation or see redness. I tend to get sensitive with Vit C, but not with this serum! The serum also has a lovely smoothing texture so perfect for underneath makeup.
The only thing I don't really like is the packaging as it is so shiny and perfect that I hate getting fingerprints on it! Other than that, this is a unique product especially for targeting all three potent ingredients at the eye area!

Aveeno® Calm + Restore Oat Repairing Lotion
This moisturizer has the nicest texture as it is smooth, a little bit gel-like and glides onto the skin very easily. If your skin is especially irritated, this moisturizer does not require much massaging and absorbs quickly into the skin.

Aveeno® Calm + Restore Body Wash
This body wash lathers nicely and leaves skin feeling clean, but does not strip it of moisture and leaves skin feeling soft “like skin”. It also has a nice texture and no fragrance which is perfect for reactive skin which mine can be.

I liked how compact the packaging was! Secondly, I REALLY liked the idea of a foundation that was self-setting, but I had seen so many reviews that people found this foundation drying. I have not had a lot of time to test this foundation out so I will have a full blog review in a week or two, but what I WILL say is that you do need to do some good skin prep before and that depending on your sunscreen/moisturizer, this foundation will pill. I did feel that this foundation held up well over the day and gave truly weightless coverage to the point where I forgot I had it on! I also really liked the super precise applicator that just kept everything neat and tidy!

I love the idea of a water-based fragrance as it sounds so refreshing and, I’m gonna say it, “clean”. The only thing is that the scent isn’t as long-lasting on me at least as I noticed the scent is almost all gone after about 4 hours, but I can see this being a nice summer go-to where I want everything I put on my skin to be light and airy.
“Nectarine Petal” itself is labelled a "Fruity Musk", but to me smells more floral than fruity which is still a good thing, but just an observation in case anyone is looking for a sweeter scent. I was surprised that for a water-based scent, that it had just as much scent potency as their alcohol-based counterparts! It is also a light enough sent to layer with my other CLEAN scents to create my own unique scent depending on my mood. I would have given this 5 stars if the scent lasted longer on me.
