Naturium | Multi-Peptide Moisturizer: Review

Disclaimer: The product featured was provided for review.

A while back Shoppers Drug Mart announced that they will start carrying Naturium in stores and on their website in Canada. This was met with great fanfare on social media but I had actually never heard of the brand before! Founded in 2020 by American beauty influencer Susan Yara, Naturium aims to offer clinically backed and affordable skincare that's vegan and cruelty-free. The brand catalogue is pretty extensive but only a selection of it is currently available at Shoppers Drug Mart. Being completely new to Naturium, I thought the Multi-Peptide Moisturizer (C$33.99 for 50 g) would be a good foray into the brand. To read my thoughts on this "mid-weight" moisturizer, click......

SOME BY MI | Retinol Intense Reactivating Serum: Review

Disclaimer: This post contains an affiliate code. The item featured was purchased by me.

As mentioned before, I love ordering Korean beauty and skincare products from Stylevana. Aside from their amazing pricing, Stylevana always offers various full-sized gifts with purchases. One of the best gifts with purchases I've received so far is the SOME BY MI Retinol Intense Reactivating Serum (C$27.99 for 30 ml). For the longest time, I've struggled with retinol products. I've always wanted to incorporate them into my skincare routine but I can never seem to get past the "retinol purge", aka the breakouts, flaking, and sensitivities commonly associated with the first few weeks of retinol use. However, I thought I would give things one more try with the SOME BY MI Retinol Intense Reactivating Serum. Thankfully, the results have been great so I thought I would share my experience with today......

I've used a lot of Belif products in the past but I've actually never tried any toners from the brand. Granted, Belif is most known for its moisturizers (namely The True Cream Aqua Bomb and The True Cream Moisturizing Bomb, reviewed here), but the brand has amped up its toner offerings in the past few years. Today I will be talking about the Aqua Bomb PHA Exfoliating Toner Pads (C$32.50 for 70 Pads) and the Moisturizing Bomb Toner (C$40.50 for 150 ml). To read all about them, click......

Dior | *NEW* Miss Dior Parfum: Review

Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links and the product featured was provided for review.

Earlier this year, Dior released a reincarnation of their iconic 1947 Miss Dior fragrance. Now a parfum (as opposed to the revamped eau de parfum released in 2021), the new Miss Dior "reappropriates the initial olfactory inspiration of Miss Dior, infusing it with the spirit of contemporary youth". Boasting notes of jasmine, wild strawberries, cedar, and patchouli, the Miss Dior Parfum (C$210 for 80 ml) is a pleasantly refreshing fruity floral.

L'Oreal Paris | True Match Lumi Glotion in "901 Fair Glow": Review and Swatches

Disclaimer: The product featured was provided for review.

I've been trying to embrace the glowy complexion trend lately so I purchased the L'Oreal True Match Lumi Glotion (C$22.49 for 40 ml) when it went on sale at London Drugs. Coincidentally, I got the same product in a recent PR package last week so I knew I would share my thoughts of it with you. Described as a multi-use highlighting lotion, the True Match Lumi Glotion can be worn alone, under foundation, or over foundation as a targetted highlighter. To read more, click......
