*COLAB Dry Shampoo Paradise

I really love the way COLAB Dry shampoo works with my hair. It feels nice and soft, I use it to help with the days that I don’t feel like washing my hair. I also use it to give volume to my hair and it smells so good. Paradise is my fave! Available at London Drugs, Brunet, Rexall, Pharma Plus, Guardian, IDA and more!

HAPPY JUNE! SPRING VIBES! 2017

header sun blue

When Life gives you lemons you squeeze them and make lemonade! Or something like that. Well I was hoping to take a vacation this summer but life happens. SO change of plans! Just going to stick around Toronto and vlog my summer! 🙂 All is good though. I’m very excited actually. Even though I’m dying to see the ocean and smell it and touch it and feel it….LOL I’m okay and the lake will do for now.

I’m very happy that the weather is so nice and everything is green and beautiful! I’ve been preparing my feet and my legs for the nice weather. I’m very self-conscious about my legs and having two children my body has changed quite a bit. I am torn inside by the stretch marks and the weight gain. I’m working my way to loving the way I am and making healthy and better lifestyle choices. One of the choices is Clarins Body Fit Anti-Cellulite Contouring Expert.

I started using the CLARINS Body Fit Anti-Cellulite Contouring Expert and it’s been helping me take care of my legs. I tend to ignore taking care of my legs and I always hide them. Especially the back of the legs and behind the knees. It’s a very emotional thing for me to talk about, but using the Clarins Body fit along with the Self-Massage Body Appliance is helping me a lot. I’m finding that I’m starting to like the way my legs look and feel. Focusing on my body and legs helps a lot because  taking care of them is a positive boost to my self esteem. The Effective body coaching advice and tips from Dr. Olivier Courtin booklet is also very helpful and motivating on this journey. I highly recommend it.

CLARINS 76

The new name and new formula are completely in line with Clarins’ “healthy philosophy” that includes a balanced lifestyle for achieving a fit body. Body Fit, the 7th generation formula, capitalizes on the strengths of its predecessors and goes even further in terms of body contouring results thanks to an unprecedented discovery made by Clarins Research: there are not 1 but 3 adipocytes involved in the expansion of adipose tissue and the formation of cellulite.  -CLARINS

clarins 73

High-performing plants extracts offer optimal contouring results and skin that looks visibly more beautiful. Quince leaf extract’s targeted action is reinforced by caffeine, a known slimming ingredient, along with 7 other plant extracts: organic aquatic mint, celosia, baccharis, scabious, horse chestnut, sunflower phospholipids, and hazelnut oil.  -CLARINS

The Body fit comes in a new bottle with sexy curves that symbolize the “perfect” silhouette. A new, highly sensorial texture that makes application pleasurable and visible results. I’m very happy with the way the formula has a cooling sensation and applies nicely and smoothly. The Multi-Mass is a complete self-massage body device exclusive to CLARINS care products. It’s benefits are as follows: A body polishing and firming booster to help reduce fluid retention on the thighs, buttocks and hips. It strengthens the skin while helping to improve the tonicity and firmness of the tissues. Ideal for removing impurities and dead cells. Can be used to relax and soothe legs and back. I’m very pleased and I continue to use both products. The Body Fit is $70.00.


Not only am I getting my legs fit but I’m also giving them a natural sun-kissed glow with this duo.  Avon Skin So Soft Satin Glow Skin Illuminator and Skin So Soft Body Gel Moisturizer. I love this duo so much. They don’t smell like tanning lotion and they are nice and hydrating. They smell really amazing and make my skin soft and smooth. The results are so nice and natural. I’m very pleased. Have you tried this duo? Would love to know your thoughts.

Avon Skin So Soft Satin Glow Skin Illuminator

Look like you’ve been on a tropical vacay without leaving home. “Our moisturizing formulas also give you a beautifully bronzed glow.” Scented with hints of orange, green tea and vanilla. Silky moisturizing cream with sunflower oil. With sheer optical illuminators for a hint of colour and the perfect sheen. 200ml. BENEFITS: Optical illuminators diffuse light to magically blur imperfections. Silky moisturizing cream provides a hint of colour and sheen and leaves your skin feeling radiant and satin-smooth.

Skin So Soft Body Gel Moisturizer

Scented with hints of orange, green tea and vanilla. Hydrating gel glides on leaving skin touchably soft with no greasy after-feel. See a natural-looking radiant glow after just 3 days. 200ml. BENEFITS : Instantly absorbed. Glides on easily and streak-free. Leaves skin touchably soft and radiant and it is Non-greasy.


Let’s talk HAIR! Let me say there is nothing wrong with body hair. I just prefer not to have any. I like smooth silky skin. I use to wax but it is too expensive and hurts like hell. So I use Avon’s Hair removal creams and also the Shaving gel as well. I love this line. It’s fast and easy and it’s great for sensitive skin!

AVON 66

I’m very happy to be using AVON’s Moisturizing hair removal formulas. They easily remove unwanted body hair and leave skin feeling softer and smoother. I’ve been using the Sensitive Skin Body Hair Removal Cream which removes body hair in 2 1/2 minutes! it comes in 125ml and it is $10.00. Love using the Moisturizing Silky Stay Shave Gel. 200ml for $6.00. Fresh & Smooth Sensitive Skin Facial Hair Removal Cream. It Effectively removes unwanted facial hair for sensitive skin. With aloe and fragrance-free. 30ml $10.00.

I’ve been vlogging and busy blogging. I hope you had an opportunity to see my Vlogs. Here is my latest vlog. If you are not subscribed to my channel I would love for you to subscribe.  Last weekend the weather was lovely and I took my girls to the park. They loved it. I would like to continue vlogging and documenting. It makes my vlogs more special to see my children in them. They are the joy of my life.

So along with vlogging yesterday I received a few new lovely PR samples that I’ll be sharing with you this month on the blog. I’m really excited because there are some new items that I’ve never tried before and some that I’ve already tried and love. I’m excited to share everything with you. Coming soon!
