My Europe Beauty Haul

After exhausting weeks of work and a 15 day Europe trip, I’m back and can’t wait to share my Europe beauty haul! I stopped at London, Edinburgh, York, Paris, and Amsterdam and picked up some beauty products along the way. I definitely plan to do some travel related posts but I haven’t bought beauty stuff for so long, it was exciting!

Paris is where I purchased 99% of the products. Although I didn’t spend enough to get the VAT refund (~20% tax refund for being a non European local,) there were still good savings on same products that could be purchased in Canada. [Read more…]

Pixi Skincare: Rose Ceramide Cream, Rose Caviar Essence, Rose Cream Cleanser

I am a skincare junkie these days and I don’t think the skin on my face can keep up fast enough with me.

Dior Capture Youth Serum: Glow Booster, Plump Filler, Lift Sculptor

I’ve noticed I’ve put a lot more time curating my skincare routine than makeup. Whether it’s an age thing, or just too tired to wake up in the morning to put on makeup and do my other morning things – I will never leave the house without some sort of toner + serum + moisturizer combination on. Many, many, MANY *insert some sort of time unit that is a long time ago* I received three of Dior Capture Youth serums and one of them is almost emptied now. 🙁 [Read more…]
