Back to Work

Hello Darling,

It's been over a year since I've last posted because I've been on maternity and taking care of my brand new son. Now, I am ready to get back to work, so one of the things I will be starting again is my blog. YAY ! Let's see if we can breath some life into this baby.


I have lot's of plans for my freelance business is going, I wish I could tell you all, but alas, as most things are only in their developmental stage, I must stay hush! hush!

 But what I will do is a quick overview of some products I am loving right now:

Nivea Pure & Natural Moisturizing Day Care ($10.00)


 This is my current Moisturizer and I am loving it, I also got one to use on some of my bridal clients and the feedback has been all positive. PROS Leaves skin feeling soft and gentle to the touch. Enriched with organically grown Argan Oil and Aloe Vera. Made without parabens, silicones, colorants or mineral oils CONS Fragrance - I hate fragrance in products,and I find this one a bit strong, but that's probably because most of my products are fragrance free, so when something is scented - I notice it.

Mary Kay TimeWise MicrodermaBrasion Set ($60.00)


 I am addicted to this stuff ! Everyone should have it. It is the best microdermabrasion system I've tried besides a professional procedure with the dermatologist. Almost all people's skin problems when it come to texture, ie; oily with blemishes or dry with flakes. Can be dramatically reduced by microdermabrasion and this is the one I use, and it makes my skin feel awesome! Get some from my mom here !


RÉSIST-ÂGE Fine Lines ILLUMINATING & DEPUFFING Lise Watier ($47.00)

This is a great eye cream for brightening and refreshing the under eye area. I can't say much about whether or not it fights fine lines, as I don't have any yet to worry about, but this is a beautiful product that leaves skin looking and feeling great. Sometime when I feel like i look extra haggard, I actually do a double dose of this. I apply the first layer on under my makeup then after I have my under eye corrector applied, I dab a little bit more, and it really opens up the eye and makes you look awake

 Mary Kay Intense Moisturizing Cream ($40.00) 

 This moisturizer saved my skin this winter, it is amazing! I had also purchased the Embryolisse miracle moisturizer that gets lots of press from the beauty industry as being the best moisturizer, I honestly couldn't tell the difference between the two and the Embryolisse one almost seemed harsh, my face would get red when I would put it on, where the Mary Kay one, sat really nicely unto the skin. I will definitely be picking two of these up for next winter, one for me and one for my kit.

 White Musk® Eau de Parfum by the Body Shop ($24.00)


 After all this whining about fragrance in products , I do have a couple fragrances I keep around the house to wear, one of them being this classic clean scent from the Body Shop. It has been a favorite of mine for years! I usually put a couple of spritz on before I head out the door because it is very light.


...No Makeup reviews today I guess. Over the past year, as my makeup routine has had to be simplified to fit into this new season in my life, I have definitely developed more of an appreciation for skincare, as having great skin really simplifies the makeup requirements.

Until Next time!
