I am in love with YSL Beauty's Lash Clash Waterproof Mascara! With spring coming, I need a mascara that lasts. First, the packaging is so luxurious and regal. The tube is sleek and beautiful with the blue YSL logo. I like the mascara's creamy consistency and appreciate the neutral and pleasant scent. The straight applicator brush easily aids in the application process, adding instant oomph and length. With each coat, you can see the noticeable length and volume that gets added, and I love how buildable it is! There is next to zero clumping, flaking, or smudging during application, which is my biggest pet peeve with another brand I use. Lastly, performance and longevity? This mascara holds up throughout the day without smudging, flaking, or running. It is most definitely water resistant, as I have been testing it out by spending time outside in the moist spring air and appreciating how it holds up while I sweat the rest of my makeup off in dance class. Ultimately, it provides volume, length, and lash separation. The overall look is both natural and glamorous. I love that it lasts throughout the day but is easy to remove when the time comes. I would recommend this Mascara to anyone looking for buildable length and volume without the flaking and smudges! I received this product for free in exchange for my honest review. -

Van Houtte Hazelnut Iced Coffee 🧊☕️🩵✨
Van Houtte Brew Over Ice K-Cups have really leveled up my make-at-home coffee game! 😋 These k-cups are specially made to stand up to ice so flavour won’t be watered down 🧊👏🏻
These Hazelnut, Medium Roast, Brew Over Ice K-Cups have been such a welcome addition to my morning routine. I appreciate the smooth taste of this flavoured blend, made with 100% Arabica responsibly sourced coffee beans, roasted to perfection👌🏻
I hate to admit this, but I loathe hot coffee and end up drinking room temperature or iced coffee anyway, so these Van Houtte® Brew Over Ice K-Cups will be a new staple on my grocery list! I appreciate that they are compatible with ALL Keurig Brewers, meaning I can drink iced coffee at home or work without having to spend money at a restaurant or cafe 😁😋
You are supposed to brew in a mug filled with ice and not use glass, however, I did this and transferred it as I prefer the glass tumbler to a mug in the afternoons.
I have been enjoying an iced coffee daily as my afternoon pick-me-up, and let me tell you, it’s tasty and refreshing. I would highly recommend Van Houtte Brew Over Ice K-Cups to anyone who loves iced coffee, owns a Keurig and wants to save a few bucks without compromising on taste. ☕️

Clean Reserve H2EAU Nectarine Petal 🌸🍑🌱💧
I’m totally hooked on @cleanbeauty_collective 💚
They’re always about clean, sustainable, eco-conscious, cruelty-free, gluten-free, phthalate-free, and vegan-friendly products made with ethically sourced ingredients🐰
I recently tried their new CLEAN RESERVE H2EAU Nectarine Petal Eau de Parfum from their CLEAN & GENTLE line of eco-conscious fragrances inspired by water - nature’s gentle touch. I was impressed to see that this clean, long-lasting, and water-based fragrance was gentle on my sensitive skin while still being hydrating and without sacrificing quality 👏🏻
Let me tell you - the scent is both fruity and floral: light, bright, and oh-so divine! It’s citrus fresh with hints of floral and fruity notes; beautifully blended to become my new favourite fragrance. I’ve received loads of compliments on it because it’s light on the senses and perfect for any occasion. Plus, it lasts through intense workouts and long workdays 😄
I’ve been raving about it to everyone and will definitely buy it again when this bottle runs out. Ohh and I love the roller ball format. Perfect for travel and smelling good on the go! 🩷

Grown Alchemist Skin Defense Primer✨
I am already a huge fan of #grownalchemist products and was so excited to try their newly reformulated skin defense primer (formerly called Anti-Pollution Primer).
With aging skin I find it so important to use products that nurture my skin and Grown Alchemist products do just that. I only use primer, concealer, eyeliner and mascara in my makeup routine so when I find a good primer, it makes my life and makeup, so much better.
I adore this primer as it is unlike anything I’ve used before. It blurs imperfections and pores, while lessening the look of wrinkles, but it is completely silicone-free! It has been the most amazing primer for use under my makeup 👏🏻
I appreciate that it reinforces a barrier between my skin and environmental stressors, containing adaptogenic ingredients like Reishi Mushroom, Ashwagandha and pre-biotic peptides. It also smells good, is vegan friendly, gluten free, and a positive luxury product.
I have been using it daily after applying my favourite Grown Alchemist Hydra-Repair Day Cream and I can visibly feel and see the difference in my overall skin texture and appearance. My skin feels hydrated and the appearance of fine lines and other textural issues are minimized/smoothed/blurred 🧖🏼♀️
I am so happy I received this product for free in exchange for my honest review as it will now be my new go to primer! 🩷
I am already a huge fan of @grownalchemist and I will definitely be recommending their products, especially this primer, to my friends and colleagues ✨

I love this Aveeno Stress Relief Body Scrub! It provides a holistic skincare experience by addressing both physical exfoliation and added relaxation through its blend of ingredients and calming scents.
Including oatmeal in this body scrub offers a soothing and nourishing effect on my skin as oatmeal is known for its skin-calming properties. This scrub not only soothes but also exfoliates the skin. It effectively cleanses my skin, removing dead surface layers to reveal a smoother and refreshed complexion.
The calming scents of lavender, chamomile, and ylang-ylang oils add an aromatherapeutic element to my skincare routine. These fragrances can help create a tranquil and stress-relieving atmosphere which is so helpful after long work days.
The Aveeno Stress Relief Body Scrub has made a great addition to my self-care routine, helping me to unwind and achieve smoother skin at the same time! I would highly recommend this scrub to anyone looking for smoother skin and some destressing at the same time.

Listerine’s Antiseptic Mouthwash in Cool Mint has been a staple in my life and dental hygiene routine for as long as I can remember. This beloved classic still stands unrivalled among other brands as it refreshes your breath and kills 99.9% of germs to prevent and reduce gingivitis and plaque below the gumline! 👏🏻
The medication I’m on sometimes leaves me with a dry mouth, but this mouthwash helps so much with that! I typically swish a capful of it for 20-30 seconds and spit it out - super easy to use! I love the cool mint flavour, legendary formula, and how it leaves my mouth feeling - minty fresh!! 💧
Recently, I went to the dentist and the hygienist said my teeth and gums were looking great, with strong enamel and less plaque buildup. The bottle is easy to open and comes with a convenient cap, making it user-friendly. I have been recommending this mouthwash to my friends and family, especially to those who are diabetic, since “gingivitis is one of the most common mouth problems associated with diabetes."
I received this product for free in exchange for my honest review. I will definitely be swapping back to this mouthwash moving forward! 😁

I am utterly obsessed with Lancôme products, and this Rénergie H.C.F. Triple Anti-Aging Serum is no exception.
As I approach closer to my 40s, I continue to seek skincare products that combat the effects of aging while addressing the needs of my thirsty and occasionally sensitive skin.
This serum is the first triple-dose serum of its kind on the market, offering a unique and innovative approach to anti-aging skincare. It contains Hyaluronic Acid, C + Niacinamide Vitamins and Ferulic Acid; while each ingredient is beneficial on its own, they combine to create a high-performance anti-aging concentrate with just one pump from the triple-chambered bottle.
Triple-Dose Hyaluronic Acid is one of the key ingredients in the serum, known for its hydrating properties. This ingredient helps to retain moisture and plump the skin.
C + Niacinamide Vitamins: It also includes a combination of Vitamin C and Niacinamide (Vitamin B3). These vitamins brighten the skin, improve skin texture, and address various signs of aging.
Ferulic Acid: Ferulic Acid is an antioxidant that can help protect the skin from environmental damage and contributes to anti-aging benefits.
Triple-Chamber Packaging: The unique packaging, with three separate chambers, ensures the ingredients are kept separate until they are dispensed, possibly to maintain their potency and effectiveness.
I've been using this serum for nearly three weeks and am amazed by its high efficacy, which is gentle on my dry, sensitive skin. This serum strikes a balance between being highly effective in addressing signs of aging, as it moisturizes, plumps, brightens, improves texture and provides a gentle and caring experience for my skin at the same time. This balance is crucial and really sets it apart from harsher anti-aging products that I’ve tried in past.
I would highly recommend this serum, especially for those with similar skin concerns and goals in their skincare routine. I am so grateful to have received this serum for free in exchange for my honest review.

This was the first summer in a couple of years where I didn’t have University or work, and I could just relax, breathe and concentrate on what I call life admin tasks! ☺️
On that list of tasks came some important DIY projects, including replacing a toilet flange and seal, painting walls, decluttering and resealing some crevasses that needed to be done.
In came DAP’s ALEX ULTRA Advanced Latex Sealant which is a high performing acrylic latex sealant which is low shrink, durable, and flexible! I found that it applies evenly and effortlessly, is low in odor, and doesn’t pick up any other crud.👌🏻
I was surprised to learn that ALEX ULTRA adheres to a wide variety of surfaces: it adhered just fine to my granite countertop and laminate flooring around my toilet base. 😁 It provides a 100% waterproof seal, and so far, so good! When it’s fully cured, the caulking is mold and mildew resistant.👏🏻
I couldn’t get over just how easy this professional grade caulk was to use and the hardest part of the process for me was loading the caulking gun 🤣 I’m excited to use it for other projects on the list, and it will now be my go to project product! I highly recommend it and you can find it at your local Home Depot! 🧡

This cherry-flavoured antioxidant-infused beverage with vitamin C is both flavourful and delicious, without added sugar or many calories! It is light and refreshing with the perfect mix of tangy and sweet flavours! 😋 I love that it contains only 10 calories and 10 mg of salt, with less than 1g of sugar! Lastly, it provides a nice pick me up when I need it with a 55 mg caffeine boost from green tea extract. Definitely tasty and better for you than other water-beverage alternatives! I have already recommended and repurchased these bai drinks in multiple flavours. I received this product for free in exchange for my honest review. -

I love my new 12-cup coffee maker by Paderno 🤎
My partner has been hunting for a new 12-cup coffee maker for the last few months as he drinks a lot of coffee and his workplace doesn’t have a machine. However, I was hesitant as I only brew 2 cups daily - but this coffee maker is amazing as it has a both a small batch setting for the brewing of 2-4 cups, or a large batch setting for more! It has been so handy to use as both my partner and I are getting as much coffee as we need! 😋
It is sleek with its black stainless steel finish and the built-in filter basket eliminates the need for disposable filters, allowing for both easy brewing, cleaning and minimizes waste! The removable water reservoir makes for easy filling, and the keep warm feature keeps the temp for two hours! It also has programmable brew strength settings to choose between regular or bold coffee, which is great as I like my coffee regular and my partner prefers more of a bold pour.👌🏻
I was surprised by the ease of setup and use, and I love the ergonomic, non-drop, 12-cup carafe. Lastly, the coolest feature is the ability to pause your brew allowing for no-mess, mid-brew pouring for those who are impatient like moi 👏🏻
I would highly recommend this awesome, convenient and professional coffee maker by Paderno to anyone looking for a “consistently smooth, well-balanced coffee at the touch of a button. Customize your morning brew and start your day with perfection.” 💛
