June Favourites!

These are my favourite fashion, beauty and random products for the month of June!

 Boyfriend Jeans: I've been living in boyfriend jeans all month. I got this pair on mega sale at American Eagle a little while ago. They are no longer online, but these three pairs are similar and are also on sale.

 Olay Pro X Advanced Cleansing System: I have been loving this cleansing brush so much! It makes my skin feel so clean. As promised in my most recent post in my natural beauty series, my review is coming soon. I highly recommend it if you are hesitant about investing in a Clarisonic.

 Strawberries: Fresh local strawberries have been everywhere lately. They're so flavourful and I've been enjoying some everyday. 

Yes to Tomatoes Oil Control/Acne Control Gel Cleanser: Between the hot, very humid weather and wearing sunscreen, my face has been a bit temperamental lately. I've been using my normal gentle cleanser in the mornings and this one at night with my Olay cleansing brush. I've only had this cleanser for about a week, but I am loving it so much that I'm including it in my favourites. It has made such a difference to my skin already and it doesn't contain any harsh chemicals.

Maybelline Colour Sensational Colour Elixir Lip Colour in Fuchsia Flourish (075): Like last month, I am still a big fan of bright, bold lips. I've been enjoying this lip gloss lately. The formula is so pigmented and long lasting without being sticky.

Fashion Favourites: Oscar de la Renta Looks

Image
I was saddened to hear about the passing of Oscar de la Renta last week. He was such a talented designer and truly one of the remaining greats. He trained with Cristobal Balenciaga, and worked at Lanvin and Arden before launching his own ready to wear label in 1965. Over the years, he expanded into accessories, perfume, bridal wear and home wear. He also designed Balmain's haute couture collection from 1993 to 2002. He was a favourite designer of celebrities and first ladies. Today I'm taking a look back at some of my favourite de la Renta looks from both the red carpet and the runway.

Natural Beauty: What's in Your Skin Care?

Image
Have you ever thought about what's in the products you use everyday? I certainly didn't, until about a year ago. If you've read any of the posts in my natural beauty series , you know that I've been trying to make my skin care routine more natural and environmentally friendly. Everything from skin care to shampoo to hand soap to dish soap to laundry detergent is made with chemicals that have been linked to both disrupting the endocrine system and causing cancer. The EU has banned or regulated over 1,300 ingredients used in personal care products. Here in North America, we are much more lenient. The FDA has banned only 11 ingredients, while Health Canada's list of banned ingredients is only slightly longer!  (Source)  As well, terms such as "green," "eco-friendly" and "pure" are often meaningless as they aren't regulated and are often only used to market products. For example, the majority of Green Works products receive a grade of F...

Drugstore Find: Physicians Formula Talc-Free Mineral Correcting Powder

Image
Physicians Formula isn't the most popular drugstore makeup brand by any means, so today I am devoting this post to their Talc-Free Mineral Correcting Powder . This little gem has been one of my go-to products for years. This product seems to be completely one of a kind as I'm not aware of anything similar, either drugstore or high end. Physicians Formula describes this products as a 3-in-1 corrector, primer and powder that "colour corrects the most common skin imperfections, smoothes skin texture and evens out skin tone." It is available in four shades, Translucent, Creamy Natural, Buff Beige and Natural Beige, and it costs $19.99. Each shade combines yellow, pink, green and beige coloured powders. Yellow cancels out purple/blue under eye circles on olive skin tones, pink highlights and cancels out purple/blue under eye circles on fair and light skin tones, and green cancels out redness. I use this powder as a primer. Every liquid primer that I've ...
