Sometimes change is controllable, sometimes it’s not. Sometimes it’s your fault that change happens, but you can’t control what happens after the change. Started a new job in a new location, and living not at my home – I thought it was easier to handle than not. I don’t want to dive into too much details yet, but right now change is scary because I feel like it’s controlling me more than I can control it. But, what I can control is my wardrobe, as I have been adjusting to something more business casual. There goes the days of wearing my Harry Potter T-shirts to work.
CHI, The Spa at Shangri-La Hotel Vancouver
When I get good ginger tea, I know it’s a great start to something.
One of my favourite employee perks are RMT benefits because I can get a massage AND try out a spa (albeit it is more pricey but if you have a decent Health Spending Account then you can use that to cover the extra costs. Most RMT coverage is around $100-$110 per session depending on your provider.) I decided to treat myself and booked a 60 minute RMT treatment at CHI, The Spa at Shangri-La Hotel Vancouver.

Natural Skin Care and Makeup Look ft Dr.Hauschka
A while back, I attended a lovely dinner at The Teahouse in Stanley Park and learned more about the brand, Dr. Hauschka. I’m the one who usually seeks out natural makeup, but I do appreciate it when it’s out there and especially when I get to sample some! The first time I tried was around Valentine’s day when I received their Lip Care Stick and a sample of the Volume Mascara. The Lip Care stick was used up after three months although I was not as impressed with the Volume Mascara. However, you may want to grab the Facial Toner or the Lip Glosses! [Read more…]
Clarins Summer Sunkissed Collection 2018
I thought I couldn’t get lazier in Spring but summer is here. I’ve been falling apart for a while and lost a bit of interest in makeup, but the Clarins Sunkissed Summer 2018 collection did wake me up again!! I need some inspiration and part of me almost want to start doing a points/lifestyle blog, but that’s just in the very, very wee back of my mind right now. All I want is more sleep and products to make me less dull (hence I’ve been SUPER into skincare lately but that will be for a future blog post.) [Read more…]
Fashionable + Sun Protection = Win #SeeClearly
Disclaimer: This is a sponsored post from Clearly, content is original unless stated.
If you’ve been on the blog before, I’m pretty much wearing glasses in every single post that has my face in it because I’ve been wearing them since Grade 2 and contact lenses just makes me look like a human panda.
So one of the challenges I find is finding a pair of affordable sunglasses, which I usually only get once every four years or so with my company benefits. There is no point shelling out for a pair of $300 non prescription sunglasses because deep down I know I wouldn’t wear them enough. Clearly sent me two pairs of sunglasses that are fun and affordable! [Read more…]
