Well, at least when it comes to my beauty routine. My night time beauty regimen is where I let my products work their magic and just lay back and sleep. I find night one of the best times to use more concentrated or powerful products, because you aren't piling...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basAs many of you know from previous articles, I've dealt with my fair share of acne. I've used so many products and treatments (everything from yoghurt and lemon juice to glycolic acid), so I consider myself something of an acne treatment connoisseur. Of course, that doesn't mean that I don't love and need your recommendations. This week, from July 29 to August 4 when you review an acne treatment...

First there was the BB cream, which is a Beauty or Blemish Balm. Similar to a tinted moisturizer, BB creams gave coverage and moisturization but with added benefits like SPF or antioxidants. It was a major hit. Then, there was the CC cream and yet again, we collectively lost our minds over a new product. CC cream stands for Colour Correcting...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basJust like I associate Christmas with the scent of eggnog, gingerbread and peppermint, summer has a distinct set of smells as well. For me, summer is filled with fresh, invigorating scents that make me think of lying on a beach with a mojito in hand, even if I'm actually lying in an office chair with bad coffee.
Here are four of my favourite summer scents and a few ways to incorporate...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basWhenever I see anyone with flawless skin I immediately want to know their secret, though few of us are comfortable enough to march right up and ask.

The mask contains avocado, yoghurt and turmeric. The...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basSo, it's hot out. Obscenely. And I'll be honest, I'm having a hard time adjusting. Fun fact about me: I hate being hot. I dislike sweating immensely. I would not do well south of the equator.
What I loathe however, is when my makeup literally starts to melt off my face. Makeup, sun, heat and sweat don't really do well together, do they? It kind of just accumulates into a puddle on the floor....

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basAbout two months ago, I read a post by a blogger and loved it! She wrote about how much she enjoyed taking baths.

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basNot too long ago I started having some major skin issues. Like a twitter feud between two celebs, my face and the rest of my body were in constant battle, and things were getting ugly. Since then, my skin has calmed down somewhat (mostly due to prescriptions from my doctor and a good skincare routine), but I've still been experiencing some small crops of pimples.
Since I've been...
