AQUALIA THERMAL FACE SERUM + LIGHT CREAM---Review

/ Filed in: Favourites, Products, Review, Skincare

A Q U A L I A
T H E R M A L

If you are someone who enjoys spending their free time reading about skincare on the internet, chances are you've probably heard of Vichy and their newest collection, Aqualia Thermal. Their approach to skincare is to produce natural and hydrating skincare products at reasonable prices. Other than the price point, I found that the ingredient list really contribute to the effectiveness of the product. The packaging really speaks to the overall hydrating factor as it is a vibrant aqua blue glass bottle (which is why i doused it in water for the photoshoot!). Thanks to Influenster, I got to try the Aqualia Thermal Hydrating Face Serum and Light Cream.

AQUALIA THERMAL HYDRATING FACE SERUM + LIGHT CREAM

According to Vichy the face serum "replenishes water loss for dry skin. This serum helps target dry skin patches, and plump dehydration lines." The serum is also great for those with sensitive skin as it mostly contains natural ingredients (97% natural origins!) including hyaluronic acid, mineralizing water and plant mannose. The formulation of the serum is a clear color and it has a runny viscosity to it. By using just a bit of the product (one pump) my skin was able to absorb nicely without it feeling too tight, oily or sticky. Like the serum,the creme is light and a refreshing scent.

Overall I'm really happy with the results! I'm going to continue using the serum and cream as part of my night time routine on days when my skin is overly dehydrated.My skin looks healthy, nourished and feels really soft, supple, firm and smooth. I would definitely consider purchasing the serum in the future but not so much the cream (as im not sure how it differs from the serum itself).

MY SKIN TYPE: Oily, Combination

MY SKIN CONCERN:Acne, Hydration

Disclaimer: I received this product for free to test and review from Influenster, in their #VichyVoxbox however all opinions in this post are my own.

1 // FIFA World Cup ⚽
The best part of getting home from work for the past few weeks was eating lunch and yelling at professional football players as they kick a ball for over 90 minutes. But seriously I'm thoroughly impressed with the skills and perseverance shown by so many players. ps. peep the video below that resulted from the Germany-Korea game. 🤣🤣

If you are into fashion chances are you probably know about fashion icon Andre Leon Talley. He is the former editor for American Vogue and is highly influential in the fashion industry. I was first introduced to him in an interview with Tom Power on q. and was really drawn into what he was saying about the code of dressing well and about his life experience. Take a Listen

Indoor plants are all the rage in interior home decor. I am currently trying to propagate a pothos/money plant. It's been 2 months so I''m excited to see what it becomes.

Back to School in Style

/ Filed in: Celebrities, Fashion, Favourites

Even though I always enjoy the long summers, as August rolls around, I tend to get a little antsy for school to start back up. There are a few telltale signs that classes were right around the corner. Like the Staples commercial that declares 'back to school' to be the "most wonderful time of the year" or the CNE opening up as August ends. Not to mention the endless school supply list. But my favourite part of the '#BTS season has to be the fashion deals and inspiration that has me eager to put together outfits for the first week. This year I'm taking inspiration from a very stylist celeb

Sebastian Metamorphik Collection // Eruptek+ Resintek

/ Filed in: Favourites, Hair, Shop

I am, by no means glam. More often than not you’ll find me with bags under my eyes, dry shampoo in my hair and a make-up free face. Although lately I have been venturing into trying out new things with my hair. Everyone knows I am a sucker for good packaging; anything rose gold, sleek and blush is a winner in my books. So I really surprised myself when I picked Sebastian Metamorphik duo collection that comes in a (sexy?) black bottle that is salon worthy. Which is not perplexing considering the Sebastian brand has a reputation for producing some of the most coveted items by hair salons. So basically they are a big deal in the hair styling community.

The Sebastian Professional Resintek is a moldable hyper shine wax that is perfect for shaping and reshaping hairstyles with limited amount of product and effort. I’m not a big fan of using styling products on dry hair so I apply it after a shower with my hair slightly damp. Overall, I was amazed at how quickly I could see the difference in volume; but most of all the product did not weight my hair down!

On the other hand, is the Sebastian Professional Eruptek which is a ‘volcanic ash paste’’ that quite frankly sounds so scary but interesting at the same time. It is a yellowish sticky paste that is flexible and provides a weightless hold. I think these two products are definitely a dream team of texture and volume.

It' s getting super cold, really fast in Toronto. I have started to drink this lemon/ginger goodness to keep me strong this winter. I find myself not reaching for the cough syrup or soothing lozenge for my throat on days when I drink this.

You will need:

The juice of 1/2 lemon
Half a ginger, sliced
1 teaspoon honey
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon turmeric
1 cup hot water

Let’s begin:

In a mug, combine the lemon juice,ginger, cinnamon, turmeric and honey. Fill up the mug with hot water and let steep for 2-3 minutes. Enjoy!
