Lady Speed Stick Nutra-Skin + Let's Talk Underarms

Don't let the lingering snow or flurries outside fool you.

Spring is here!

Are you ready?

As you prepare to dust off your favourite flats and take out your spring/summer wardrobe out of your drawers- have you thought about your underarms?

I know it's odd question ask but did you know that your underarm skin is a very sensitive. I was find it’s one of those body parts that hardly gets enough attention. It could be because 8 out of 12 months it's usually covered up under bulky sweaters and jackets.

I didn’t even know that factors such as perspiration, hair removal or event tight clothing can cause damage to your underarms. These are all factors that I know we partake in at least once a week!

I know this is a bit of TMI but as a bride to be the condition of my under arms is very important to me. They need to be in their best shape ever next year! Especially if they will be making appearences in pictures! Haha!

I’m getting a head start with the new Lady Speed Stick* Nutra-SkinTM/MC line ($2.99 CAN). I’m so happy to tell you that it’s available in stick (45 gram) and roll on (50 mL). For me, I gravitate towards the roll on when I’m wearing long sleeves and the stick when I’m wearing short/sleeveless.
It's moisturizing and has a pleasant scent. 

Each anti-perspirant has Vitamin E and skin conditioning moisturizers plus keeps you protected for 24 hours. Did you know Vitamin E is known to improve skin conditions over time.

Nourish your delicate underarm skin without sacrificing the
protection you need and expect from your anti-perspirant:
· Contains Vitamin E and skin conditioning emollients
· Formula contains over 30% skin conditioning agents
· Extra-effective wetness protection
· 24 hour efficacy in an invisible formula
· Fresh new scent

My L'Oreal Extraordinaire Gel-Lacquer 1-2-3 manicure experience

Gel polishes are on the rise.

Some people want the durability of Gel polishes without the crazy removal time.

I was recently sent L'Oreal's new Extraordinaire Gel-Lacquer 1-2-3 manicure set.

I had no idea what to expect.

It was a three-step process.

Shake gently. After applying Gel-Primer, apply 2 coats followed by Extraordinaire Gel-Glaze.

Let me start off by saying I love the consistency of the polish.

No bubbling or streaking during my application.

All I needed was one thick coat! 

I was extremely impressed with the dry time.

After 7 days

Pros:

• No MAJOR chipping.
• Colour stayed on pretty good for 7 days.
• No UV light needed.

Con:

• Shine was gone.
• Visible wear up close.

I will say that the gel-lacquer holds up better than regular polish for me. I just wish that it still had the shine like my regular gel manicures after a week. The removal was a breeze. I used regular nail polish remover. No issues/ damages to my nail beds.

What do you think about my 7 day wear?

Clinique Cheek Pop- SWATCHES

I feel like it's blush week here, over at Spiced Beauty. I'm a sucker for a well designed blush.
I swear sometimes I don't even want to swatch them! They're so pretty. 

That's how I felt with Clinique's new Cheek Pop ($24.00 CAN) blushes! 

How cute is the name?

Vibrant yet natural-looking cheek colour that looks virtually powderless. In a silky smooth, stay-true formula with shades for every skin tone. That just-pinched look, simply effortless.

These blushes are getting rave reviews.

The formula is very light, pigmented and long-lasting!

SWATCHES:

On my skin tone, I would gravitate towards Berry Pop. It would look great with a smokey eye or a nice monochromatic bronzed eye. I could also see myself wearing Ginger Pop with a nice cat eye and glossy lips. The options are endless.
