the long and the short of it is that, between a stressful full-time job and a new migraine problem I&#39;ve been dealing with since last fall, I&#39;ve just had minimal bandwidth left for blogging and social media in general.  I really want to be more consistent with content creation again, but I won&#39;t make any promises as I&#39;m still not sure what that will look like.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;My last empties post was &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia; font-size: 11pt; font-style: italic; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;way&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;&lt;i&gt; back&lt;/i&gt; in December 2020, and, while I did accumulate an overflowing bag of all my empties in the nearly 2 years since, I&#39;ve picked out just a handful of really exceptional ones to share in more detail today instead of trying to quickly breeze through 1001 things.  Plus, since it&#39;s been 9 months since my last post (and we&#39;re roughly 9 months into the year), 9 seemed like a good number.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;

Shampoo to use as a kitchen sink hand wash.&amp;nbsp; Its intoxicating yuzu/mimosa flower scent is hard to beat, and it never dries out my hands -- even through bouts of Canadian winter and extreme pandemic handwashing.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;The pump bottle is the perfect sink size also, though I wouldn&#39;t say no to a more ecofriendly refill either if Thera Wise was inclined to sell a bigger size!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot;

white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;I received a Grown Alchemist Voxbox from Influenster last year, and was super impressed!&amp;nbsp; The Day Cream is a beautiful medium-weight moisturizer that strikes the perfect balance between nourishing moisture and a lightweight skin feel.&amp;nbsp; Geranium is not typically my favourite scent, but somehow it worked for me here -- and also in the matching Gentle Gel Facial Cleanser, which I also thoroughly enjoyed.&amp;nbsp; The $69 CAD price point is the only thing holding me back from another tube right now, but if it&#39;s within your budget, I do think the Day Cream is worth checking out.&amp;nbsp; It also seems like Grown Alchemist products make the rounds in subscription boxes fairly regularly, so if you can find a deal, definitely 200% worth it.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot;

target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;my collaboration with Lauren Brooke last holiday&lt;/a&gt;, this one will come as no surprise!&amp;nbsp; I was able to help create a limited edition product for the company&#39;s 2021 Advent Calendar and I opted for a new flavour of the Lip Moisturizer.  This tube here is one of the originals that I also used every last drop of, and it&#39;s just as great as my Candy Cane Vanilla Mint version.  The Lip Moisturizer is an excellent soft lip balm that heals chapped lips like no other.&amp;nbsp; The ingredients are loaded with great oils, plus beeswax, shea butter, and vitamin E, and it’s become a must-have product for me, especially through the winter.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot;

white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 11pt;&quot;&gt;Perfect is a big claim to make, but this sunscreen is undoubtedly pretty great and I understand why it gets so much hype.&amp;nbsp; The formula is lightly tinted and, while there&#39;s no real coverage from the tint, it eliminates any whitecast and does do a very slight job of evening out my skin.&amp;nbsp; The colour is also sheer enough that I think it would suit a lot of different skin tones.&amp;nbsp; In the spring/summer, I was using this in place of a morning moisturizer, but in the colder months, I would probably use it as an additional layer instead.&amp;nbsp; The sunscreen feels a&amp;nbsp;little tacky at first, which might bother some people, but it does absorb within 20-30 minutes to a very comfortable finish.&amp;nbsp; Most importantly, this tube had me reaching for it every single day and truly got me in the habit of wearing SPF daily -- HUGE, as someone who is usually pretty inconsistent with SPF.&amp;nbsp; I went back to my other favourite, the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://greenbeaver.com/collections/mineral-sunscreens/products/mineral-sunscreen-for-face-spf-25&quot; style=&quot;font-size: 11pt;&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Green Beaver Face Sunscreen&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 11pt;&quot;&gt;, when Consonant was sold out of the Perfect Sunscreen earlier in the summer, and that&#39;s what I&#39;m using now, but I could definitely see myself coming back to this one again in the future.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot;

white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 11pt;&quot;&gt;As I said, I&#39;m become a total bar soap convert everywhere except the kitchen in the last few years, and One With Nature is one brand that I keep coming back to.&amp;nbsp; The bars are inexpensive and huge, and easily create a rich and non-drying lather.  Pictured here are the &lt;a href=&quot;https://iherb.co/YZoaTEj&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Grapefruit Guava&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;https://iherb.co/ABkBNvX&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;unscented Olive Oil&lt;/a&gt;, two of my favourite bars, but I’ve yet to find a dud in their lineup.&amp;nbsp; My only complaint with these is the plastic wrapping, since plastic-free packaging is a big benefit of switching to a solid bar in my book.&amp;nbsp; I still continue to buy them, but would love to see the brand transition to recyclable paper packaging.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot;

white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;I’ve had really positive experiences with {Save} products across the board, but the Sleeping Mask is my tip-top favourite of everything I’ve tried from the brand.&amp;nbsp; I typically used it in place of a moisturizer/night cream step 2-3 times per week, and it worked incredibly well to refresh my skin and seal in any other nighttime products.&amp;nbsp; The multi-faceted formula hydrates, gently exfoliates with enzymes, and protects against environmental stresses, and my skin is always extra glowy in the morning after using this.&amp;nbsp; I’m working through some other products first, but a repurchase is definitely in order soon!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot;

white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;I’ve gone through at least four or five bottles of this cleanser over the last few years, and it remains one of my favourite gel cleansers.&amp;nbsp; It smells fresh and citrusy, and produces a light, gentle lather that leaves my skin feeling clean but not stripped.&amp;nbsp; My favourite way to use it is as the second step in a double cleanse, but I’ll also reach for it in the morning sometimes.&amp;nbsp; I’m trying to finish off some other open products before I crack into a new bottle, but I do have one waiting in the wings already.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot;

Crazy Rumors is sadly not the easiest to get your hands on here in Canada (and is no longer carried on &lt;a href=&quot;https://ca.iherb.com/?rcode=ITI429&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;iHerb&lt;/a&gt;

white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;I had both a full size jar and a mini of this moisturizer hanging out in my empties bag, which I think tells a pretty clear story.&amp;nbsp; The Day Cream is a thick moisturizer, but it sinks in completely to an almost matte finish.&amp;nbsp; It hydrates well, and I see a noticeable difference in the fine lines in my forehead when I use this product versus other moisturizers.&amp;nbsp; I say this every time I mention anything from the line, but the scent of Derma E’s Hydrating products is a little perfumey.  It&#39;s never triggered headaches or other reactions for me and the performance keeps me coming back, but I would definitely prefer if it was less fragranced.  That said, I just cracked open a new jar of this in the last few days after several months without it, and was immediately reminded why I like it so much!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfJ1M4BK7Xa3_1d-cfRf72SqDP0AZTerKV2E4UzQ6L0rXIGfUslU9ra1K8ec_Z1MMjEYO1-wAAyAjtz6ReuPtVqpWNagdFZS8JYn1HXBxXTRygM1uJCLwAZHZZ3LuepCkLUMg-na5yt5LcjlFTL-wRNYp2vI90qb_7ENRANqqmAoxhCMndALKQmkG8Aw/s3456/Empties%20Sept%202022%20Roundup.jpg&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; data-original-height=&quot;3456&quot; data-original-width=&quot;3456&quot; height=&quot;640&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfJ1M4BK7Xa3_1d-cfRf72SqDP0AZTerKV2E4UzQ6L0rXIGfUslU9ra1K8ec_Z1MMjEYO1-wAAyAjtz6ReuPtVqpWNagdFZS8JYn1HXBxXTRygM1uJCLwAZHZZ3LuepCkLUMg-na5yt5LcjlFTL-wRNYp2vI90qb_7ENRANqqmAoxhCMndALKQmkG8Aw/w640-h640/Empties%20Sept%202022%20Roundup.jpg&quot; width=&quot;640&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;And that&#39;s a wrap for today!

Solstice is a pearl shade that adds gorgeous luminosity without any obvious sparkle or glitter, and the crème&amp;nbsp;formula just melts into the skin.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;Day 7: Express Tinted Brow Wax&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;This duo includes two shades of tinted brow wax to define, tame and shape your brows.&amp;nbsp; The tints are pretty sheer, so I think this combo of shades would suit just about anyone.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;Day 8: Holly Berry Colour Stick&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;The Colour Sticks are a creamy 3-in-1 product that can be used for cheeks, eyes, and lips, though I&#39;ve mainly used them as cream blushes in the past.&amp;nbsp; Holly Berry, a limited edition shade, is a beautiful red that may look intimidating at first, but sheers out to the prettiest winter flush on the cheeks.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;table align=&quot;center&quot;

Loaded with rich moisturizers and soothing botanicals, it always leaves my eye area looking healthy and plump, and the stick format makes application a breeze.&amp;nbsp; Don&#39;t be fooled by the small size either -- a little goes a long way, so even this mini will last you quite some time.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;

vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;I usually have three or four cleansers in rotation at any given time, so when I tell you that I didn&#39;t touch another cleanser for at least the first three weeks after opening this, that&#39;s a really big deal for me!&amp;nbsp; The Face Cleanser is a lightweight and gentle aerated foam that cleanses the skin thoroughly without any drying or stripping.&amp;nbsp; The foam is pretty substantial and, unlike a few similar style cleansers that I&#39;ve used before, it retains that plushness and doesn&#39;t melt away or disintegrate as you use it.&amp;nbsp; I love that, since it really gives you ample time to massage the product over damp skin.&amp;nbsp; (Get a close-up look at the texture in&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.instagram.com/p/CLXSJ-JH_TG/&quot;

The cleanser smells fresh and a little herbal courtesy of an essential oil blend that includes camphor, cajeput, and geranium, and it&#39;s just a fantastic product all around.&amp;nbsp; If I had to pick, I think this would be my very favourite from the line.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;table align=&quot;center&quot;

font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;The Face Toner is a gentle clarifying formula that features 5% niacinamide in a base of green tea water, glycerin, and two types of lotus flower extract.&amp;nbsp; Niacinamide is a phenomenal ingredient for refining pores and balancing oil production in acne-prone skin, and it’s also excellent for calming redness and inflammation, and stimulating collagen production, and the green tea and lotus flower further enhance these benefits.&amp;nbsp; The toner is lightweight and watery in consistency, and it makes a wonderful hydrating layer underneath more moisturizing products.&amp;nbsp; It’s also good for adding extra slip to the skin before going in with a face oil.&amp;nbsp; It smells light and refreshing, mainly like green tea, and I like the pump bottle packaging that dispenses easily into hands and lets me pat the product into the skin without needing to use cotton pads.&amp;nbsp;

white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;The Face Oil is beautiful, both in formula and presentation, but unfortunately there’s something in the scent that has started to bother my nose.&amp;nbsp; It’s made with natural fragrance and does smell lovely -- a sweet rose that’s neither cloying or granny-like (even to a generally non-rose loving person like me!) -- so it doesn’t bother me on that level, but it’s started to make me sneeze and feel stuffy/congested when I use it on my face recently, so I’ve had to delegate it to neck/chest/body use only.&amp;nbsp; I think this is a me issue, not a flaw in the product itself, and I’m so disappointed too, as when I have used the oil on my face, it had a lovely velvety finish that left my skin plump and glowy, and wore beautifully under makeup too.&amp;nbsp; The ingredients are also great --&amp;nbsp; a blend of beautiful cold-pressed and organic oils that includes black currant, argan, evening primrose, and jojoba.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot;

white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;AKA the one that started my recent blush obsession, and, in particular, my new love for cream blushes.&amp;nbsp; The Hydratints are a beautiful hydrating formula made with meadowfoam oil and hyaluronic acid, and they create the prettiest dewy flush on the cheeks without emphasizing skin texture.&amp;nbsp; The packaging, which looks just like a nail polish bottle, makes for easy application, either by dotting the blush serum directly onto your cheeks or onto a palette or the back of your hand.&amp;nbsp; I like using a denser blush brush like the&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.blogger.com/blog/post/edit/4226777357926708402/2674718443061909336#&quot; style=&quot;text-decoration-line: none;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: black;

font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;, but I&#39;ve also played around with fingers and a sponge.&amp;nbsp; The product dries down nicely, if a little quickly, so, whatever method you choose, I recommend applying these one side at a time.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;Blossom is the lightest shade in Clove + Hallow&#39;s range, but, as you’ll see in the swatch, it does deepen up a little as the serum dries to create a lovely and surprisingly pigmented flush. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot;

Rose Quartz includes an icy pink highlighter and two soft-focus blushes, and I love the versatility of mixing and layering the three shades together.&amp;nbsp; I&#39;ve seen Aether&#39;s blush palettes described as highly pigmented -- to the point of sometimes being difficult to work with on lighter skin -- but that hasn’t really been my experience.&amp;nbsp; Heart, the highlighter, is very creamy and packs a glowy punch right off the bat, but Compassion and Self-Love, the two near-matte blushes, are dryer in texture and need to be built up, even on my fair skin.&amp;nbsp; That said, I like a buildable blush formula, so that’s not necessarily a negative to me.&amp;nbsp; Even layered and built up, the blushes don’t sit heavily or look like a lot of makeup on the skin, so it&#39;s a very workable formula, just not what I was expecting.&amp;nbsp; (It&#39;s also possible I got a weird palette -- I&#39;d be curious to swatch these in-store to compare once we are able again.)&amp;nbsp; Aether’s recyclable packaging and focus on sustainability is another big plus in my book.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot;

Milk’s Lip + Cheeks are super blendable, and I find them to be one of the easiest cream formulas to work with.&amp;nbsp; You have time to move the product around, but it sets to a touchable finish that wears all day long within a minute or two.&amp;nbsp; I also love that the brand sells these more affordable minis, as after dozens of uses, my mini stick still looks barely touched.&amp;nbsp; I can’t imagine ever needing a full size, but I can definitely see myself picking up a couple other minis in different shades.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot;

The ingredients include a probiotic peptide and vegetable collagen to “lift, firm, and sculpt,” and I really do think they give the cheeks a plump and fuller appearance.&amp;nbsp; Joy is a soft coral with a strong golden shimmer running through it, and I tend to reach for it more often as a blush topper than a standalone blush.  Worn by itself, I find the shimmer can sometimes go beyond my blush preference before achieving the base pigment colour I’m looking for.&amp;nbsp; I like Joy -- I think it would make a gorgeous highlight on deep skin, and I’ve also used it as a sheer cream eye shadow with great results -- but I think I’d get more versatility from a creamier shade without shimmer, so that&#39;s likely what I would opt for next time.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot;

Basically, it’s what I reach for if I&#39;m unsure about a look or if I don’t know what blush to wear.&amp;nbsp; Camellia is a light peachy-pink that goes with everything, and it&#39;s one that I can apply quickly and without much thought.&amp;nbsp; It has a nice satin finish, a great formula, and is inexpensive too.&amp;nbsp; This particular colour is probably only suitable for those of us on the lighter side, but if that’s you, I definitely recommend it.&amp;nbsp; The plastic packaging may look a little chintzy, but I like how compact it is, and mine is still intact after a fair bit of banging around in my makeup stash.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot;

The ingredients are very natural -- basically just oils, butters, and mineral pigments -- and the formula is emollient, with less of it&#39;s own dry-down than the other three creams in this roundup.&amp;nbsp; The Colour Sticks are glowy and moisturizing, and really melt into the skin.&amp;nbsp; The formula doesn&#39;t completely set by itself, but you can easily remedy that with a light dusting of powder blush or even a translucent powder.&amp;nbsp; A powder also helps it last longer -- without setting, I do find the Colour Stick fades and needs to be touched up about halfway through the day.&amp;nbsp; Honey Blossom was a limited edition shade from Lauren Brooke&#39;s 2020 advent calendar, but Natural Bloom, in the permanent line, looks to be in the same colour family.&amp;nbsp; The full size also comes in an easy stick form, not the glass pot pictured.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot;

The Cream Cleanser has a soft lotiony consistency and cleanses the skin without stripping.&amp;nbsp; Its ingredient list features many standouts: jojoba, sesame, and macadamia oils, shea butter, sodium hyaluronate, sodium PCA, and algae, green tea, and orchid extracts.  It&#39;s a truly stellar, pH-balanced cleanser.&amp;nbsp; I find myself reaching for this product most often as a morning cleanser, but the gentle and moisturizing formula works nicely as the second step of a nighttime double cleanse too.&amp;nbsp; It glides over the skin easily and rinses well, without any struggle or heavy residue left behind.&amp;nbsp; I’m nearing the bottom of my second bottle already, with definite plans to repurchase in the near future.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot;

target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;3rd place in the Face Serum category&lt;/a&gt;), and I’m so glad I was introduced to it this way.&amp;nbsp; It utilizes simple, high quality ingredients -- many of which are grown and distilled onsite at the company’s own farm -- to create a stunning oil blend that’s perfectly suited for sensitive and reactive skin.&amp;nbsp; I have a fair number of face oils on my shelf at the moment, but this is one that I consistently find myself reaching for.&amp;nbsp; It works on its own, in combination with a cream moisturizer, in place of a separate eye cream or eye serum, and I’ve even used it as a cuticle oil on my winter-weary hands in the last couple of months too!&amp;nbsp; It’s Canadian-made and an all-around winner that&#39;s filled with some of my favourite oils: jojoba, rosehip, immortelle, and frankincense, to name just a few!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot;

The Rose Water Toner is made with rosehip-infused water (not floral rose), aloe vera, and witch hazel, and does a fantastic job balancing the skin and boosting hydration.&amp;nbsp; My favourite way to use it is as a layering step, sandwiched on either side of a face oil, but it works perfectly as a more traditional toner too.&amp;nbsp; It’s lightweight, gentle, and hydrating, with a very mild scent.  Golden Sky Naturals also focuses on sustainability in every facet of their business and, in addition to all glass packaging, is &lt;a href=&quot;https://goldenskynaturals.com/pages/sustainability&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;certified Plastic Negative&lt;/a&gt;, which I think is pretty phenomenal!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt;

In addition to Thayers&#39; signature witch hazel, the rollerball spot treatment contains aloe vera, glycerin, aspen bark, parsley leaf, centella asiatica, and lemon, tea tree, and geranium essential oils.&amp;nbsp; It’s invisible, can be worn both under and over makeup, and works very well at shrinking existing blemishes and preventing new ones from fully forming.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot;

The mask is a moisturizing overnight treatment that replenishes skin, gently resurfaces, boosts barrier function, and protects against environmental aggressors.&amp;nbsp; It uses bacillus ferment, an enzymatic exfoliant, along with nourishing shea butter, and ectoin, a powerful defense against UVA-induced cell damage.&amp;nbsp; The Sleeping Mask feels like a plush moisturizer going on, and it, without fail, has me waking up to happier, glowier skin in the morning.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot;

It’s very thick and rich in consistency and packs a serious moisturizing punch, but it sinks into the skin and absorbs effortlessly, like I would typically expect from a much lighter-weight product.&amp;nbsp; It’s the opposite of greasy, but hydrates incredibly well with hyaluronic acid and aloe vera.&amp;nbsp; Most notably, I can see a real difference in the fine lines on my forehead when I use the Day Cream consistently.&amp;nbsp; It hasn’t gotten rid of the lines in the long-term, but more so offers a temporary (but very noticeable!) plumping effect that helps my makeup sit and wear better throughout the day. &amp;nbsp; My only caution would be that the Day Cream has a fairly strong scent.  I’ve gotten used to it over time, but it&#39;s worth bearing in mind for anyone sensitive to fragrances.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;&quot;&gt;And that&#39;s a wrap on my much-delayed favourite skincare discoveries of 2020!

Pure Amore is a thick gel with zero lather.&amp;nbsp; It’s gentle and non-stripping, but also one of the best products I’ve used for deep cleaning my pores.&amp;nbsp; I&#39;ve used a jar of this previously and plan to repurchase again once I work through the small stockpile of cleansers I&#39;ve accumulated recently.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot;

The Charcoal Lemonade Scrub, made with blueberries, lemon peel, and plant cellulose exfoliating crystals, has a much gentler grit and a soft mousse-like consistency that I really enjoyed.&amp;nbsp; I used it a couple times a week in the shower, and would happily buy another tube in the future.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot;

It does a great job moisturizing the eye area and minimizing puffiness, but I just wish it did more for darkness.&amp;nbsp; The packaging was also not my favourite, as the applicator had a tendency to ooze product unless the tube was stored completely upside down.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot;

The equally lovely lotion is lightweight and hydrating, and absorbs into the skin well without any greasy residue.&amp;nbsp; These aren’t my first bottles of these, and I’ve already got backups of both waiting in the wings.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot;

I’m a Lauren Brooke affiliate, which means that I periodically receive products to share on &lt;a href=&quot;https://instagram.com/naturallabeauty&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Instagram&lt;/a&gt;, but I’m under no obligation to post about them here on the blog.&amp;nbsp; No one at Lauren Brooke HQ has any idea that I’m writing this blog post, but, as soon as I received the Advent Box, I knew I had to share it ASAP, and also that I didn’t want to be limited to just the constraints of an Instagram caption.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;

Consonant has included a strong concentration of 10% glycolic acid, as well as lactic, malic, and salicylic acids, but the acids are intelligently tempered with soothing botanical extracts and hydrating sodium PCA and niacinamide to counter any harshness and minimize the potential for irritation.&amp;nbsp; I never experience any burning or irritation from the acids, but I do notice visibly smoother skin and clearer pores, so I still know it’s working!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot;

Formulated to balance oily and combination skin, it offers lightweight moisture from aloe vera and sweet almond oil, alongside a gentle clarifying salicylic acid and enzyme blend derived from willow bark, licorice root, and pineapple.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal;

It smells fresh and citrusy thanks to a blend of orange, lime, bergamot, and juniper essential oils, which I also love, and it does a great job keeping my skin clear and breakout-free.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot;

It&#39;s the opposite of greasy -- in fact, it dries to a satin-matte finish almost immediately on application.&amp;nbsp; Made with hyaluronic acid, aloe vera, green tea, and vitamins A, C, and E, it imparts a serious dose of antioxidant-packed hydration, and does an excellent job plumping the skin.&amp;nbsp; I can see a visible difference in my fine lines with this cream, though it seems to be just a temporary plumping effect that gradually dissipates if I use other products and skip the Day Cream for 3 or 4 days in a row.&amp;nbsp; I’m loving having the combination of this and the lighter MetaPora moisturizer in my rotation, and am very curious to branch out into other products in Derma E’s Hydrating line now too!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot;

target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;keep up with me on Instagram&lt;/a&gt;, it’s worth mentioning that I griped a fair bit about the scent of this product when I first tried it -- to the point where I set it aside, completely untouched, for three or four months there -- but, whether it’s faded or just doesn’t bother me any longer, the scent is no longer an issue.&amp;nbsp; I’d caution that it is pretty strong and somewhat perfumey, but my nose did end up getting used to it, so take that for what it is.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot;

style=&quot;line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;This has been my first experience using an essence, and I’m seriously loving it!&amp;nbsp; On a basic texture level, essences generally fall somewhere midway between toners and serums, and I usually use the Brightening Essence in place of one or the other, rather than including all three steps in my routine.&amp;nbsp; The essence has some nice brightening ingredients like lactic acid and licorice root and apple fruit extracts, but I’ve found the brightening effects very mild on my skin.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot;

The essence is made with mineral-rich sea water and sodium hyaluronate, and it adds an additional layer (or 2 or 3, if you want) of lightweight, watery moisture that can be locked in with a cream or an oil.&amp;nbsp; It leaves skin feeling quenched and bouncy, and serves as a perfect hydrating layer moving into winter.&amp;nbsp; It also smells pretty, as you would expect from an essential oil line -- mildly floral from a blend of skin-loving essential oils that includes blue cypress, Hawaiian sandalwood, frankincense, geranium, carrot seed, and jasmine.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 1.38;

It&#39;s also shaping up to be very cost-effective, despite a pricier initial spend.

Sweet Leilani’s products were developed for clients dealing with serious skin concerns like burns, eczema, allergies, rosacea, and the effects of cancer/radiation treatments, and the company’s gluten and fragrance-free formulas are gentle and lovely.&amp;nbsp; The Tinted Moisturizer has very minimal ingredients and is a beautiful lightweight product that offers sheer, perfecting coverage with a radiant finish.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot;

Even with an imperfect colour match -- though the company has since come out with a lighter shade that I would opt for next time -- I’m super smitten with this product.&amp;nbsp; The Tinted Moisturizer is lightweight and very comfortable on the skin, and it has the prettiest natural and skin-like finish.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot;

The Conditioning Detangler is &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia; white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;a lightweight and watery leave-in conditioner that does a truly great job detangling knotty hair, and it&#39;s&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia; white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt; been a real saving grace while I’m trying to clear out less-loved hair products from my shower.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;It works well to compensate for more lackluster conditioners, and makes my hair much easier to comb through.&amp;nbsp; The spray works equally well on wet and dry hair and, while I haven’t been doing much hairstyling recently, I also like it as a curl refresher on second-day hair when I feel so inclined.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot;

Beyond that, what really sparks my interest is how the company incorporates ingredients not often seen in green beauty lines, like the copper peptide and epidermal growth factor in this ampoule.  I haven&#39;t used either one before, but both are known to be excellent ingredients for hydration and anti-aging.&amp;nbsp; Lovinah’s founder, Joy, also created &lt;a href=&quot;https://blackandluxe.com/&quot;

Alongside numerous moisturizing ingredients, it includes an ayurvedic herbal infusion of brahmi, burdock, marshmallow, yucca, slippery elm, and horsetail for added conditioning and to promote healthy growth.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot;

vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;Our hands are exposed to everything, but they’re an area that’s often neglected when it comes to sun protection.&amp;nbsp; Sure, you &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-style: italic;

vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt; apply a regular body sunscreen, but since those often lack the elegance and feel of a good hand cream, it’s not something most of us do.&amp;nbsp; Which is why Unsun’s fast absorbing hand cream is so tempting to me!&amp;nbsp; The formula, which claims to be water resistant for 40 minutes, combines rich emollients, revitalizing and anti-aging botanicals, and mineral SPF.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot;

The company also has clear swatches of almost everything and sells inexpensive samples to help with choosing colours online.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 1.38;

I don’t believe anyone needs feminine cleansing products because lady parts are inherently gross or dirty, but I think they’re great if you experience sensitivity with other products or if you just want a dedicated product for that area.&amp;nbsp; I like the cheekiness of the company’s name and their &lt;a href=&quot;https://thehoneypot.co/products/honey-pot-sensitive-6-oz?variant=1507107907&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Sensitive Wash&lt;/a&gt;, made with apple cider vinegar, calendula, and colloidal silver, looks like something I would like.&amp;nbsp;

Note: some scents include fragrance oils, while others, like the Gin and Tonic bars pictured, are made using just essential oils. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 1.38;

While it has a nice gel consistency and boasts great ingredients like caffeine, coffee, blue tansy, and peptides, I just never saw much difference in either my dark circles or under eye puffiness.&amp;nbsp; That said, the gel is gentle and nicely hydrating, so if that’s your only eye concern, you might enjoy it.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;times new roman&amp;quot;;

The Serum-Shot is jam packed with actives and botanicals including niacinamide, stable vitamin C, ferulic acid, peptides, green tea, manuka honey and more, and it worked incredibly well for my skin.&amp;nbsp; It truly delivered on all its hydrating, firming, skin tone-improving and pore-minimizing promises and, as a result, could often take the place of multiple other products in my routine.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot;

white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;One of the biggest selling points for me with Real Purity powders was always that they were silicone free, however the current iteration of this product includes dimethicone.  I can&#39;t speak to that current formulation, but this version sat really nicely on the skin, though it wasn’t the best for longevity or a full day&#39;s wear.&amp;nbsp; I took this time in quarantine, when wear time was less of a concern, to use it up, but won&#39;t repurchase due to the ingredient change.  Also, it’s worth pointing out that if &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #262626; font-style: italic; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;I’m&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #262626; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt; wearing your medium shade, there’s definitely some work to be done for an inclusive shade range.&amp;nbsp; I’m hopeful that deeper shades are in the works.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #262626; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.realpurity.com/real-purity-desert-rose-powder-blush.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Real Purity Blush (Desert Rose)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;*&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #262626; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;I don’t think I’ve ever actually finished a pressed blush before!&amp;nbsp; I got a ton of wear out of this -- occasional use and then near daily use for almost two years!

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;georgia&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;times new roman&amp;quot; , serif; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;It&#39;s been pretty well established that healthy hair needs the right balance of moisture and protein, and that messing with the equilibrium by overdoing either one can cause problems.  That&#39;s why, after years of what seemed like excessive hair breakage, I decided to try a protein detox this spring/summer to determine once and for all if protein overload was the cause of my sometimes brittle hair.  Essentially, I eliminated any hair products with protein -- it&#39;s harder than you might think with all the hydrolyzed grains and other protein sources that can hide in an ingredient list! -- to see if that would resolve my issue.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;georgia&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;times new roman&amp;quot; , serif; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;I loved this lemon cake-scented conditioner initially, but with longer use, it hasn’t been as great for my hair as I first thought.&amp;nbsp; Used occasionally or in rotation with other conditioners, it’s nicely moisturizing and works well, but when I used it every wash, I found it created a lot of buildup in my hair.&amp;nbsp; It’s not so terrible that I won’t finish the tube, just not one that I’ll buy again.&amp;nbsp; It’s a real shame, because, buildup aside, the conditioner is loaded with great plant extracts like burdock, St. John’s wort, nettle, and calendula that are all great for promoting healthy hair.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;georgia&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;times new roman&amp;quot; , serif; white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;I like pairing the mask with {save}’s Vit C Booster, which includes a potent dose of stable vitamin C (sodium ascorbyl phosphate), as well as ectoin, again, and moisturizing argan and sweet almond oils.&amp;nbsp; I’ll replace my regular &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.naturallabeauty.com/2020/04/stayhome-skincare-night-routine.html&quot; style=&quot;font-family: georgia, &amp;quot;times new roman&amp;quot;, serif; white-space: pre-wrap;&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;night routine&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;georgia&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;times new roman&amp;quot; , serif; white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt; with this combo about two nights a week and consistently wake up with bright, plump, and glowy skin the next morning.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

As a spot treatment, the ointment targets harmful bacteria and visibly reduces swelling, redness, and inflammation without overdrying.&amp;nbsp; (The ointment is even a little moisturizing -- definitely not the norm for acne products!)&amp;nbsp; I also sometimes like to pat a small amount onto areas with more visible pores or anywhere that I’m prone to skin congestion.&amp;nbsp; Ac+ is a true staple in my skincare lineup and an almost automatic rebuy at this point!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

The Blemish Stick combines the company’s popular alcohol-free witch hazel with aloe vera, glycerin, aspen bark, parsley leaf, centella asiatica (gotu kola), and lemon, tea tree, and geranium essential oils.&amp;nbsp; It’s a transparent spot treatment that works incredibly well at shrinking or eliminating blemishes.&amp;nbsp; As you’d expect from the rollerball packaging, the Blemish Stick is quite watery in consistency and it dries invisibly on the skin, making it perfect for daytime use -- both under and over makeup.&amp;nbsp; When I have a breakout, I usually reach for the Ac+ Ointment in the evenings and the Blemish Stick during the day, but I’ve also been known to layer the two on top of each other on occasion.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Oil cleansers are my general go-to most days and Zion Health&#39;s is a great one!&amp;nbsp; The Cleansing Oil is a non-emulsifying blend of fractionated coconut, apricot, grapeseed, and wild flax oils, plus olive squalane, vitamin E, ionic clay minerals, and grapefruit and orange essential oils.&amp;nbsp; It’s a thinner oil, so a little goes a long way.  It glides across the skin easily, while effectively removing both face and eye makeup.&amp;nbsp; Because it doesn’t emulsify, you’ll need a cloth to wipe everything off, but it smells great and is nice and gentle on the skin.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

It’s great for odour protection, and I’m convinced it has also helped soothe and prevent shaving-related irritation and ingrown hairs.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

My one small caveat with Routine -- both the baking soda and baking soda-free formulas -- is that they have a tendency to leave those dreaded oil stains on your clothes if you’re too liberal with application and/or don’t wait a minute or two for the cream to fully sink in.&amp;nbsp; Not a dealbreaker in my book, just something to be aware of!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

If staying dry is a major concern, it&#39;s also undoubtedly one of the best for moisture.  The formula has no added fragrance or essential oils, so the sweet and delicate coconut scent really shines through.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

The formula incorporates hops extract, probiotic enzymes, baking soda, and essential oils to fight odour, and aloe vera and shea butter to cushion the skin.&amp;nbsp; It doesn’t feel like a baking soda-heavy formula and has never caused me any irritation.  Ursa Major has released a couple other deodorants -- including an unscented and baking soda-free option! -- but I’m still a big fan of the original.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

My favourite scent has been the Active Citrus &amp;amp; Bergamot, though I find it more sweet and musky than super citrusy.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

This was my second tube of the &lt;b&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://coralcalcium.com/product/coral-white-toothpaste-mint-6-oz-tube/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Coral White Mint Toothpaste&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;, but I think it will be my last.&amp;nbsp; After a recent cleaning, I’m convinced that this toothpaste was creating more tartar on my teeth, which, according to my dental hygienist can be caused by minerals in ingredients like coral calcium depositing and building up on the teeth.&amp;nbsp; (I’m in no way saying that everyone will have this issue, but this toothpaste just didn’t end up the best fit for me.)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

It yields amazing results in terms of brightness, skin clarity, and luminosity, particularly in combination with the Sleeping Mask, but it does feel very active and warm for the first few minutes after application.&amp;nbsp; I haven’t experienced any irritation, just a noticeable warming sensation.  I like adding the Vit C Booster to the Sleeping Mask only about twice a week, and if I use the Sleeping Mask more often, I will use it on its own.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Using more or less powder will also alter your level of exfoliation.&amp;nbsp; I like mixing it with other products, and am a big fan of both the salt shaker-type top that dispenses the powder easily and the twist cap closure that keeps it fresh when not in use.&amp;nbsp; Another top notch discovery and one I&#39;m happily keeping in regular rotation!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;background-color: white; color: #202124; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;georgia&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;times new roman&amp;quot; , serif;&quot;&gt;I’ve tested and reviewed a lot of products over the years, which I know can be overwhelming if you’re just searching for the best X or Y to suit your needs.&amp;nbsp; For that reason, one of the things I want to do this year is put together some resources of my favourite products across various categories.&amp;nbsp; That starts today with my favourite skincare products for oily, combination, and acne-prone skin.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;background-color: white; color: #202124; font-family: georgia, &amp;quot;times new roman&amp;quot;, serif; white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;background-color: white; color: #202124; font-family: georgia, &amp;quot;times new roman&amp;quot;, serif; white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;I thought this was a good one to kick things off with since acne and breakouts are something that most of deal with at some point in our lives.&amp;nbsp; My story is pretty typical: I had some acne as a teenager, my skin cleared up in my twenties, and now, at almost 32, it’s something I’ve been dealing with more again over the last couple years.  I&#39;ve never had bad acne by any means, but I deal with breakouts around that time of the month, minor skin congestion, and my skin has a tendency to get oily and develop some shine throughout the day, particularly in the summer months.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;background-color: white; color: #202124; font-family: georgia, &amp;quot;times new roman&amp;quot;, serif; white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;background-color: white; color: #202124; font-family: georgia, &amp;quot;times new roman&amp;quot;, serif; white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;My approach tends towards products that are both gentle and effective.&amp;nbsp; Harsher products have never worked for me -- in fact, more often than not, they&#39;ve just caused more problems -- so my top picks are products that combine potent blemish fighters with skin-friendly formulas that encourage healing and healthy skin function.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

I especially like using the Face Wash as a second cleanse at night, after I oil cleanse to remove makeup, as it leaves the skin feeling extra fresh and clean, yet very comfortable.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

It also helps to speed up the healing of any dark spots and hyperpigmentation left behind after breakouts.&amp;nbsp; I finished my first jar a month or two ago and it’s one I plan to rebuy in the spring, if not sooner.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

I also use this “off-label” on areas where I have larger pores and it works well to keep them extra clean, and therefore less noticeable.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Avarelle also includes tea tree, calendula, and rosehip seed oil to help things along.&amp;nbsp; I opted for the PM patches, supposedly thicker and more secure than their AM counterparts, but I’ve worn them out during the day and they’re pretty discreet as long as you change them out once they start to fill up with goo, something that I’m sure would be necessary with the AM ones too.&amp;nbsp; I’ve only used the patches a handful of times since I don’t get “that kind” of pimple too often, but I’m very happy to have them on hand when the need arises.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Fact is, I&#39;m just not in a position to reasonably commit to a certain number of posts per week or month right now, but happy to be posting when I can.

The company doesn&#39;t disclose the exact essential oils used in their House Blend, but it&#39;s a beautiful multi-layered fresh-floral-herbal-earthy scent that I can&#39;t get enough of! Clearly describing scents is not my forte, but take my word for it, it&#39;s so lovely.  &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.tlanghans.com/collections/the-restaurant-collection&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Or, if you&#39;re in the GTA, give it a sniff at one of several restaurants&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

I also adore the elegant glass packaging, which looks beautiful sitting on a counter.  Now that it’s that time of year, I can&#39;t help thinking that both the soap and its matching &lt;a href=&quot;https://bldbl.co/t0wUZ&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Hand &amp;amp; Body Cream&lt;/a&gt; -- also fantastic! -- would make such a perfect hostess gift too.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

This rich moisturizer is packed with nourishing ingredients like avocado and jojoba oils, cocoa butter, and beeswax, and it does an excellent job tackling dryness and creating a protective barrier to lock in moisture and keep out external stressors.  It’s not heavy or greasy, just potent, plush and nourishing.  I really can’t think of a better moisturizer for our dry Canadian winters!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

The formula is a little soft in the tube and has a unique, almost gel-like feel on the lips.&amp;nbsp; Not oily and not waxy, but something else entirely.  The balm is very moisturizing, lasts well on the lips, and is wonderful for protecting against the elements.  Peppermint and spearmint essential oils give this flavour a slight minty tingle, but the balm is also available in Vanilla, if that’s not your thing.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

I don’t wear all matte looks very often, so I usually pull in a shimmer on the lid, but the palette has everything else I need for a great eye look.&amp;nbsp; (You can use it alone too, of course, if matte eyes are more your jam.)
