    February 2, 2021

    Hi Everyone!

    I am revisiting last year’s favourites. There were some products I really enjoyed, but I don’t love them enough to repurchase. Others are favourites and I will repurchase again in the future. Keep reading to find out which products from my 2019 favourites made the list!

    This year, I’ve taken a look at those “Revisiting” posts and reviewed them again. I’ve decided that every year, I will take a look at all of my favourites to see how my tastes change as I get older.

    January 2020 Faves

    January 28, 2020

    Hi Everyone!

    I’m sharing my favourites today!

    Good Molecules Pure Cold-Pressed Rosehip Seed Oil* – I love a good facial oil! This one and their Ultra Hydrating Facial Oil are great. I love that they aren’t fragranced.

    Ole Henriksen Banana Bright Eye Crème – I really liked this eye cream. While I didn’t love the scent of it in the beginning, I got used to it. It wasn’t greasy and didn’t feel too heavy. It was perfect for my under eyes.

    I was just informed that this eye cream has caused some bad reactions for people who have been using it for a long period of time. I only had a mini that lasted about 2 months. Check out this post on Instagram.

    Good Molecules Silicone-Free Priming Moisturizer* – I’m currently loving this moisturizer. It’s silicone-free, fragrance free and alcohol free! After having to declutter (give to my mom) the Touch in Sol No Poreblem Primer, I needed a new smoothing primer to replace it. The No Poreblem Primer blurred my skin and made my makeup look good, but whenever I used it, I would breakout. I have been using the priming moisturizer for a few weeks now and my makeup layers beautifully on top of it. Will definitely purchase once I finish this bottle that they gifted me.

    What have you been loving lately?

    December 26, 2019

    Hi Everyone!

    I haven’t tried many new products in the past two months, so I don’t have many favourites for you this time.

    Volition Beauty Strawberry-C Brightening Serum* (read my review) – I really enjoyed this serum and will definitely be repurchasing in the future.

    Ole Henriksen Banana Bright Eye Crème – This is a great eye cream. I don’t know if it brightened my under eyes that much, but I haven’t had any reactions to it. A lot of eye creams have caused milia or some type of reaction because they’re too thick for me. At first I didn’t love the smell of this, but I eventually got used to it. It keeps my under eyes feeling smooth and moisturized.

    Good Molecules Ultra-Hydrating Facial Oil* – I really enjoyed this facial oil. Once it started to get colder, I would mix this with the Volition Serum to add some more hydration to my face.

    What were your faves this month?
