Thank you to Butterly and YSL Beauty for choosing me to be a part of the YSL LoveShine Lipstick Campaign! I was super excited to receive "Shade 44 - Nude Lavallière" to try out for free in exchange for my honest review.
This shade is an iconic nude pink and more on the pinkish mauve side. It's a soft, subtle shade and works well with any makeup look. I'm loving this shade! By the way, I outlined my lips with a plum lip pencil before applying this lipstick.
I love how smoothly this lipstick applies... basically glides on my lips so easily. It's very moisturizing and leaves a soft, buttery feeling when applied. It's long lasting and feels luxurious on my lips. It has a pleasant, fruity fragrance as well. This lipstick is a "High-Shine Caring Lipstick" and overall I'm very happy with the shine and colour I received. Great for when you want a simple, nude lip colour for all day wear.

This nude shade is more on the orangey-pink side. There are also gold flecks of sparkles for that extra shine! By the way, before applying this lipstick, I outlined my lips with a plum lip pencil.

Thank you to Butterly for sending me the "Neutrogena Hydro Boost Ultra Hydrating Serum" to try out for free in exchange for my honest review. This serum is fragrance-free and very gentle, so it's perfect for all skin types including those with sensitive skin.
This serum feels so lightweight and basically weightless on my skin. It applies very smoothly and keeps my skin well hydrated overnight, which is usually when my skin gets the driest. It's especially great for these cold seasons. Also, I really like the fact that this product comes in a recyclable glass jar and it's not tested on animals.
Every night after I shower and cleanse my face, I apply this serum... followed by the Neutrogena Hydro Boost Gel Cream, which I was gifted as well. Definitely a must-have in my nighttime skincare routine! (Although it can be used at any time of the day.) This serum gives me that glowy look and my skin feels soft to the touch!

Wow! I'm loving this "Neutrogena Hydro Boost Gel Cream", which I received from Butterly for free in exchange for my honest review! It's fragrance-free and very lightweight, so it's perfect for all skin types and especially gentle enough for sensitive skin.
I absolutely love the texture of this gel cream, which is a water-like gel formula that instantly cools the skin and makes it feel refreshed. It glides so smoothly on my skin as I apply it and feels amazing on my face. My skin feels really soft, nourished and moisturized after using it for the past few days. It keep my skin well hydrated overnight. Perfect for this cold weather here in Canada, for sure! Also, I really like the fact that this product comes in a recyclable glass jar and it's not tested on animals.
I highly recommend this product as it has become a part of my bedtime routine after I shower and cleanse my face each night, which is when my skin feels the driest... although it can be used at any time of the day. First, I cleanse my face and then I treat my skin with the Neutrogena Hydro Boost Ultra Hydrating Serum, which I was gifted as well. Lastly, I apply this Neutrogena gel cream on my face. I feel like it hydrates my skin and gives me a hydro boost with glowing, radiant skin! It has definitely improved the overall look and feel of my skin!

Thank you to Butterly and Yves Saint Laurent (YSL Beauty) for choosing me to be a part of the YSL Lashclash Mascara Campaign! I received the YSL Lashclash Waterproof Mascara in Black for free in exchange for my honest review.
This mascara is great for a night out or a special event! I never use false lashes, so I like making my lashes look bold and dramatic using the correct technique which I've learned over the years. By the way, I didn't curl my lashes as I wanted to see how the mascara actually worked... I was able to separate and lengthen my lashes with the brush wand quite well, but I did have to work a bit quickly as I noticed that it will dry a little faster due to it being a waterproof formula. I found this mascara to be long-lasting and it held up well for basically the entire day whenever I wore it. The colour is a nice, deep black and gives an eye-catching look. Be sure to use a waterproof eye makeup remover or micellar water to remove it at the end of the day. Overall, the quality is great and I recommend it for anyone who likes spectacular long lashes!

Last year, I was lucky enough to be chosen to try the new Van Houtte Brew Over Ice Coffee K-Cups... and I just received the newest flavour in the family, which is Hazelnut in Medium Roast from Butterly to try for free in exchange for my honest review.
I love coffee and I also love hazelnut flavour in just about anything... So I really enjoyed this new hazelnut flavour, which filled my kitchen with the most wonderful aroma as it was brewing over the ice in my Keurig machine!
Here are instructions on how I made it:
First, I added water to my Keurig machine, filled a large mug with ice and brewed the K-cup pod on the "bold" setting. Then I added brown sugar and some evaporated milk. I even made it into my own fancy drink with whipped cream for an afternoon treat and it was delicious with the perfect, rich flavour and smooth blend! Looking forward to trying the other flavours!

My little ones got to be the product testers this time since I was sent the "Aveeno Baby Daily Lotion" from Butterly to try out for free in exchange for my thoughts on the product. I wanted my kids to use this lotion for an adequate amount of time in order to give my honest review on this product, so they've been using it for the past few weeks now. This lotion applies well on my children's skin and feels so smooth. I found that their skin stayed moisturized and nourishes for hours later. My kids have somewhat sensitive skin and this was a gentle formula that worked well for them since it's formulated with natural Colloidal Oatmeal and it's also fragrance-free, hypoallergenic, free of parabens, pthalates and dyes... So it's perfect for my kids! Thank you for the chance to try out this lovely product for free! -

I've been dreaming of the warm summer (and wishing I could chase away the winter blues) ever since I was sent the "Aveeno Calm + Restore Daily Face Moisturizer Mineral SPF 30" from Butterly for free in exchange for my honest review.
I've been using this moisturizer daily for the past couple of weeks, because I wanted to give it a good try before sharing my thoughts... I found that it applied smoothly on my face and also felt lightweight, non-greasy and soothing on my skin. My skin still felt nourished, moisturized and soft to the touch even hours later, so it's definitely long lasting. It contains pure Colloidal Oatmeal so it's very gentle on the skin. It's also hypoallergenic and doesn't clog or cause breakouts, so it's perfect for anyone with sensitive skin.
Unfortunately, it didn't blend in to my medium-tone brown skin quite as well as I had hoped... but it did blend in better than a few other moisturizers with SPF that I've used in the past. Although, it does work well when applied underneath makeup, since it effectively evens skin tone. I feel that it does great job protecting my skin from the harmful effects of the sun, since it contains 100% mineral actives for broad spectrum UVA/UVB protection. I also like the fact that this product comes in a tube made with 40% Post-Consumer Recycled Plastic.
Given my overall positive experience of this product as an all-day moisturizer with mineral SPF, I will continue to use it to maintain smoother, softer and protected skin.

I love trying new flavours of K-cups... and this was the perfect new flavour for me to enjoy during the holiday season! As it was brewing our my Keurig, it smelled absolutely amazing and my kitchen was filled with its lovely aroma! McCafé French Vanilla is a medium roast coffee, which is smooth and light on the French Vanilla flavour. There's a delicate, hint of vanilla which adds a bit of sweetness as well. I added brown sugar and some evaporated canned milk to enhance the richness and it tasted delicious! I like the fact that there are no artificial flavours and that this coffee is made with 100% ethically sourced, Rainforest Alliance Certified Arabica beans. This blend of coffee is perfect to help you feel all warm and cozy on a cold day! I usually like to enjoy this as an afternoon treat with a couple of cookies!

These NOMA iQ Smart Wi-Fi Wall Plugs came at the perfect time! I'm certainly making good use od them this holiday season! I'm using one wall plug for our main Christmas tree and the second wall plug for my child's nightlight in his room. It's simple to install and set up through the NOMA iQ app. Easily set timers to stay on schedule, control and power them on or off. You can also control them remotely, which is convenient if you're away. The voice command feature works well with my Amazon Alexa as well. Loving the NOMA iQ Smart Wi-Fi products so far!
