I could say my skin is the bane of my existence. I have acne since I was in Grade 3 and from there on it never went away. One time my mom did see a dermatologist about my skin condition back in the 80s and he was going to charge over $100 each month for the medication. We never went through with it since we didn't have $100 to spare. I have lived with my acne for years and even to this day I still do get the odd acne. Things I know now, I wish I knew ages ago. I think I should have been using Cetaphil...

SkinCeuticals Hydrating B5 Masque ~ #Review
Now that is officially Fall and so far the weather has been decent. There were a few times it has been cool but I had tried to hold it off turning on the furnace. I am try to limit the time I have the furnace on recently. Once the heat is are turned on at home, at the office, in the stores, or at the malls, my skin gets uncomfortable tight and dry - more than normal.

Cheeky Umbrella ~ #Review & #Giveaway
It is that time of the season now that I have to carry an umbrella where ever I go. I am so terrible in keeping up the weather that I keep an umbrella at work so I will never be caught without one. The one at work never lasted since it rusted. I cant believe my umbrella rusted and I hate to find it snap while using it. That would be a downer...

Ecotools Six Piece Day to Night Clutch Set ~ #Review & #Giveaway
Anyone planning a getaway? A dream vacation? Seeing the family? Some kind of a long day trip? As for me, for any trip or just going to work, I need to bring a few essential brushes when I am out and about. My criteria is that it has to be small and able to fit into my purse or carrying on (if I was flying out) in case I need some emergency makeup application and don't want to be kept off guard without one. I just can't believe I have found the perfect brush kit!!

Verdura Jewellery in Toronto ~ #PR
I love jewellery. Who doesn't? In the past I have hinted to my hubby I needed a new pair of earrings or a necklace. Now I am drooling over a new watch and other things... I think it is so romantic when my co-worker received a huge diamond ring for their 10 year anniversary.

Transformers Rescue Bots: Griffin Rock Rescue! ~ #Review & #Giveaway
More Than Meets the Eye. Another popular TV show growing up in the 80s was our beloved popular Transformers. After that season was over, I also remember watching Transformers again in the late 90s. When the movies came out I watched every one of them. Now as I wait for the next movie my daughter and I will be watching Transformers Rescue Bots.

SkinCeuticals: Aox + Eye Gel ~ #Review
I know I am doing one too many things. I am always juggling too many things on my plate. To catch up I always work late and get up early in the morning. If I am lucky I could squeeze in maybe 6 hours of sleep a night but usually I have less than that. I am not the only one who battles long hours and getting not enough sleep. I know that, when I have gone too long without sleep, my eye twitches...have not gone there yet...
Province Apothecary ~ #Review & #Giveaway
Province Apothecary is a gem in my beloved Toronto which sells a wonderful range of 100% natural products.
Julie Clark is a holistic health practitioner, aromatherapist, and the owner of Province Apothecary. Julie suffered from sever allergies and eczema which led her to produce her own line of skin care products because she was not satisfied with what is available in the market that she could use on her sensitive skin.

Lovable Labels: 10 years Anniversary ~ #PR
I have been using Lovable Labels for close to 5 years now, since when my daughter started going to her day care. I knew I needed something to label my child's bottle since I didn't like the idea using a permanent marker. I needed something that won't wash off and would stay until I peel it off. I wanted it to last and not dissolve over time. I did some research and stumbled upon Lovable Labels and have been using them ever since.

Yoga Jeans by Second Clothing Co. ~ #Review & #Giveaway
For months during and after my pregnancy I had worn my yoga pants because I found them the most comfortable item to wear during those times. I have only two pairs of jeans because I find most of them out there either do not fit me or are very uncomfortable. Through the grape vine I heard the words Yoga Jeans which got me interested. If someone told you that you could wear jeans that feel like yoga pants would you not be interested?
