I have been an esthetician for 14 years which translates to I have done A LOT of waxing and used A LOT of different types and brands of wax. I wax myself at home all the time as it is, so i was excited to try a new wax brand.
Before I yried the wax I opened the little booklet that comes with the wax. One thing I did not like when reading the instructions is that it tells you tonapply the wax in the opposite direction of the hair growth. This is not the way you are supposed to apply wax. You awlays apply in the same direction as the hair grows and remove the wax in the opposite direction of hair growth. The wax doesn't properly adhere to the hairs if you go the opposite way.
Parissa wax is a very nice wax, it is super gentle on the skin and grabs onto the hairs nicely too. I had no irritation and didnt experience any redness other than what you normally get fron waxing. The resness was gone withing 20 minutes. There was barely any wax residue after and the Ultra Soothe Oil removed any wax that was left behind and left my skin so soft and obviously smooth.
Overall this is a very good wax that does a great job. The only complaint I have is that I wish the container could go into a wax warmer insyead of using the microwave. You have to be so careful when it comes to the temperature of the wax when it comes out of the microwave. I have seen too many burns from wax that was too hot.
I also wish they would fix the the instructions on applying the wax.

This is a very gentle cleanser that produces a small amount of foam. My skin feels nice and clean after but I definitely didn't notice a difference with the moisture level, or brightness in my skin. So what I dont really like about this cleanser is the key ingredients arent very high up on the ingredient list. Vitamin E is actually the last ingredient. So I could see why this is for sensitive skin as there is nothing in the ingredients list that would irritate the skin, there is also nothing in the ingredients list that wows me either. So overall I dont think this is a product for me. It still gave me a nice clean and I think it would be a great cleanser for those with sensitive skin.
I just personally wouldn't repurchase.

I was completely blown away by this mascara. The wand manages to seperate every lash and leaves your lashes looking fuller and longer!! You don't get any clumps or lashes that are all stuck together. I usually do 2 coats of mascara so I get nice full lashes but after only 1 coat I was completely happy with the way my lashes looked! I think my favourite part of this mascara is the fact that I can go all day without smudging or the mascara flaking.i haven't fully tested it's waterproof capabilities, but it removes easily with a cleansing oil.
I am super impressed with the formula and the fact that I know what 95% of the ingredients are in this mascara. On top of that you can't beat the price!! At $7.50 USD/ $9 CAD I think I have found my new favourite mascara!!
I think I will be trying the whole Kind & Free line!

This perfume almost puts me into a trance everytime I put it on. I instantly smell the pear nectar followed by the lovely aroma of the tobacco flower and cedarwood, then my favourite scent of musk finishes it off and perfectly wraps it all together.

If I am being completely honest I was a little weirded out by the texture of this primer. As i squeezed the product out if the tube I was expecting for a liquid to come out but what i got was not liquid, and obviously it wasn't a solid either. I was like a powder mix with a bit of oil or something. Anyways it was definitely weird at first, but I decided to continue on and started to apply it to my face. As I applied it onto ny skin it turned into a powder form. It was really neat!! Once i finished applying it i gave myself a look in the mirror and i waa absolutely shocked and how amazing my skin looked. You couldn't see the lines on my forehead or the pores on ny nose. I felt like i was using a skin perfecting filter on Snapchat or something, it was unbelievable. I decided to see how it would stand up as a primer so I applied my foundation and did my makeuo as usual. It held up great as a primer and my skin still looked incredible. I have also tried wearing it alone without any foundation or anything and I actually prefer to wear it withiut foundation. I have tried a lot of makeup primers and this one is hand's doen the best inhave ever used! It is $18 cad for 20ml but a little goes a very long way and will have no problem purchasing this again and again. The pictures of me with my makeup on is not using any filters whatsoever and I did not edit the photos either. -

The Colassal Curl Bounce Mascara definitely defined my lashes and gave them length! The brush did a great job at separating my lashes. Now this mascara is supposed to give your lashes a really nice curl but I didn't get that at all and I find it didn't give me the volume I usually like. So you would still need to use your lash curler to give a proper curl to the lashes.
This mascara does last all day and doesn't flake or smudge. My mascara looked the exact same in the evening as it did in the morning when I applied it so that is definitely a positive!

I was a little iffy on trying this foundation as I didn't really like the original True Match foundation but I am so glad I did! I couldn't believe how incredibly close I was able to get it to my actual skin tone. I think by adding the Hyaluronic Acid was a big help to as it was hydrating my skin and was able to sit on top of my skin without creasing or settling into my dry skin patches. This foundation gave my skin a flawless look and stayed on all day without looking cakey or dry. -
Garnier Whole Blends Argan & Camellia Nourishing Shampoo Bar
This shampoo bar is amazing!! It lathers nicely and my hair feels incredible after!! My hair feels softer, smoother, and overall healthier! What even better about this bar is the fact that the box is 100% recyclable.

I was definitely excited to try my favourite deodorant in spray form.
My first time applyjng this deodorant i was not expecting such a strong fragrance. It is a nice fragrance but very very strong. The spray nozzle is a little too wide so you end up spraying more than your underarms mind you I was further back than the 8 centimeters stated in the directions. It dis not leave and residue or white cast which I was really happy about.
After a few minutes the scent settled down to a nice light fragrance.
The first day I tried the deodorant I was on the phone all day at work so i was still nice and fresh when I got home. The next day I was running around all day and I needed a refresher in the afternoon. (I don't blame the deodorant as I have to reapply no matter what deodorant I use when i work in the warehouse)
I dont feel this deodorant would give you a full 48 hours of protection, I think you would get a full day out of it but no more than that.
Overall I really like this deodorant . The scent once it settles is very nice.
The only reason I took a star off is because of how strong the scent is when you first apply the deodorant. It is almost too strong to for me, but as long as I spray and walk away fron where i sprayed then i am good

Guerlain Abeille Royale Advanced Youth Watery Oil it is a luscious facial oil that combines the power of a serum, the freshness of a toner, and the richness of an oil that is as light as water.
Formulated with Dynamic Black Bee Repair Technology, Guerlain Exclusive Royal, and Commiphora Oil.
This multitasking lightweight oil hydrates, visibly plumps, and boosts skin's radiance while softening the look of fine lines and wrinkles. With the healing power of honey the skin is able to repair itself 9x faster than on its own.
I am absolutely in love with this facial oil. It instantly hydrates my skin without feeling greasy. My skin has a renewed radiance to it. After using for only 2 weeks my skin is unbelievably smooth and plump. My fine lines an my forehead and my smile lines are visibly reduced. This oil does a scent that is more like a perfume that I can't get enough of but it is on the stronger side and I could definitely see people stating that it is too strong for them. Now this product is quite pricey as it is $70cad $55us for the 15ml bottle I have right now and usually I would try and find something that could give me the same results but at a lower price point. I am totally okay with paying the high price for this because I absolutely love the results and with how little you need this bottle will definitely last quite a while.
I would recommend this to anyone that wants results instantly and gradually see even more results. You have to be okay with a stronger fragrance.
