Squeaky Clean Skin

Hello my lovelies, hope that all of you are having an amazing day! This past weekend has been a bit of a tough one, however I'm making it through.

Change is a funny thing. Humans don't adapt well to it. Even if its a good thing or bad. Not to mention that its extra stress that really we don't need. But change is inevitable. We must learn to deal with it, and come out the other side as a stronger person. No matter what.

Anyways.. thats my little ramble for the day.

Today I wanted to share my absolute favourite skincare product that I've been using for the past year and achieving great results.

Most of you have probably heard of the Clarisonic. Either the Original, Mia, or Mia 2. Now when I first heard about this product I kind of thought it was a fan fad. Meaning that its just popular because a few select individuals said that it was a great tool.

I was mistaken. This skincare tool is something I will never go without.


The Clarisonic Mia claims to deep clean 6X better than just using your hands, clears pores and reduces pore size, cleanses thoroughly so other skincare products are better absorbed, and noticeably healthier looking skin.

This system is going to benefit you regardless if its for anti-aging, acne, radiance, brightening, uneven skintone, pore size, you name it!


And for the record, yes it does all of this. There is a selection of different brush heads that range from cashmere (for the super sensitive) to normal (non sensitive skin types).



Simply put whichever cleanser you typically use on the brush head, or put directly on your face, dampen the brush and then press on! Ta da! You're on a one way road to beautiful skin, friend!

Honestly this is one of those tools that once you start, you'll always want to use it.

Keep in mind though, when you first start using it, you may notice that your skin is breaking out a bit more. Don't be alarmed though, that is because this system cleanses so deeply, that its grabbing all that gunk and bringing it to the surface. The breakouts will clear in a few uses.

You're skin is going to feel soooooooooooo soft and just look greater. Trust me when I say, you'll be addicted ;)

I honestly don't even know what I did with my skin prior to this. Besides the price point being a bit high, this system is a clear 10/10. 

My favourite way to use this is with the Philosophy Purity Cleanser. Its a very gentle cleanser for my sensitive dry skin.

Following that I use the oil that I mentioned in my previous post HERE

And of course Kiel's Eyecream

Thats all my loves,

Stay tuned for more posts coming!


Love, Love

Review: LUSH Mask of Magnaminty

Hello all,

Today I wanted to talk about facial masks. I myself, love doing mask treatments. My skin is always so happy after, and my makeup glides on that much easier. We all know that what you put on your skin, (and of course diet) are the major predictors of how your skin will look on the outside. Once in awhile, your skin needs a treat to get rid of makeup clogged pores, dry dead skin, and promote cell turnover. 

Cell Turnover?? Whats that you ask?! Well this is the process of when your new skin cells can reach the surface. Ever wonder how babies have smooth, plump skin? Well its because babies cells turnover about every 14 days. Now if your in your twenties, such as myself, you can expect your cells to turn over ever 30-40 days. and trust me, it continues to just get worse from there. Besides masks, regular exfoliation, or even microdermabrasion if you can afford it, promote the cell turnover process by getting rid of the dead cells, making way for the new cells to come to surface. 

Okay after that little skin lesson, lets actually get into this.
