Suffering from a dry scalp? Try Aveeno’s Apple Cider Vinegar Blend shampoo

February 9, 2020

Having to deal with a dry, flaky scalp is not an enjoyable experience. Between the itching, the white flakes falling out like snow upon scratching, and the dryness, dandruff in combination with an itchy head is arguably one of the most uncomfortable sensations to have to deal with. I don’t normally get dandruff, but I … More Suffering from a dry scalp? Try Aveeno’s Apple Cider Vinegar Blend shampoo

Product review: Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Definer

January 27, 2020

When it comes to applying makeup, I find eyebrows to be among the trickiest parts of the face to enhance. For whatever reason, my eyebrows have always been the bane of my existence when it comes to my makeup routine, and over the years I’ve somewhat struggled to find an eyebrow product that makes doing … More Product review: Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Definer

This is how to get rid of those pesky flyaways for good

January 16, 2020

I wrote a post a little while ago discussing a hair serum I purchased in an attempt to tame my unruly flyaways. I’m still using giovanni’s Frizz Be Gone, and I stand by what I said about it being a great product. But, I’m pleased to share that I’ve come across another delightfully effective product … More This is how to get rid of those pesky flyaways for good

Making waves (literally) with prosthetics

December 28, 2019

Having a prosthetic is challenging enough, and exposure to water doesn’t make wearing one any easier. Simple things like hitting the beach or hanging out poolside are can be exceptionally difficult for persons who have prosthetic limbs, but researchers from Northwell Health are working to make tasks like these much simpler. These researchers have created … More Making waves (literally) with prosthetics

Want AirPods but not the price? Get these instead

December 21, 2019

When the concept of wireless headphones was first introduced by Apple, I recall thinking to myself how innovative the idea was. Being someone who works on a farm, listening to music can be tricky and also hazardous when you’re using a piece of machinery and have a wire dangling down your front. I thought wireless … More Want AirPods but not the price? Get these instead

December 17, 2019

If you’re someone who tend to use a lot of heat styling tools on your hair, it’s probable that you deal with flyaways. I’ve been using styling tools on my hair for years, and you can bet that I have a few with a mind of their own mostly on my scalp. My flyaways are … More Looking for a way to control those flyaways?

Looking for some decent bubble bath? Try Dr. Teal’s

November 14, 2019

I think it’s safe to say that bubble bath is something most of us enjoy using no matter our age. Sure, our first introduction to bubble bath was likely when we were a child, but it is something that can continue to be used throughout life whenever we’re feeling like we need a little boost … More Looking for some decent bubble bath?

Product review: Bath & Body Works Aromatherapy Comfort Vanilla and Patchouli Moisturizing Body Cream

July 14, 2019

Finding a body cream you assume to be great, only to learn it isn’t, is frustrating. Perhaps it’s too oily and leaves a film on your skin after using it; maybe it isn’t the scent you bargained for; perhaps it’s promise to provide your skin with infinite moisture fell short. When you spend money on … More Product review: Bath & Body Works Aromatherapy Comfort Vanilla and Patchouli Moisturizing Body Cream

Move over, Somersby; Folkin’ Hard Cider has you beat

July 12, 2019

Ciders and summertime pair perfectly. There’s something so refreshing about cracking open a crisp, cool apple cider on a hot summer day, and I imagine a lot of folks would agree with me. If hard cider is your go-to drink when the weather warms up, I have some fantastic news for you: Bonnieheath Estate Lavender … More Move over, Somersby; Folkin’ Hard Cider has you beat

Here’s why you need to try Cottage Springs’ vodka sodas

June 11, 2019

Sugary alcoholic drinks have never been my thing. I find them to be excessively sweet (almost like you can feel cavities forming as you sip on them), and honestly, wine and beer have always been my preference. That is, wine and beer were my preference until I discovered Cottage Springs vodka sodas. Now my top … More Here’s why you need to try Cottage Springs’ vodka sodas

Product review: L’Oréal Paris Sublime Bronze Tinted Self-Tanning Luminous Bronzer

June 3, 2019

Summertime, for me, is peak tan season. By tan, I’m referring to the tan I receive when I’m outside working on the farm. Not from a tanning bed or anything like that. Since beginning my job at Bonnieheath, I’m spending far more time indoors than I normally do in the warmer weather. And, as a … More Product review: L’Oréal Paris Sublime Bronze Tinted Self-Tanning Luminous Bronzer

Here’s why you should be using hemp oil on your skin

April 23, 2019

For many of us, our skin likely isn’t looking the way we would like it to. Especially if you’re residing in a colder climate, because chances are by this point in the year, your skin is starting to closely resemble that of a snake’s. Not to fret about your reptilian state, though. Thanks to an … More Here’s why you should be using hemp oil on your skin

Product review: VicTsing’s Mini Essential Oil Diffuser

April 13, 2019

I’ve had my fair share of bad luck with diffusers. I’ve gone through two in the past year, one of which seriously ruined the top piece of my Maple dresser on my room because it had a fit and somewhat exploded all over the wood. So, I’ve been looking for a durable, decently priced one, … More Product review: VicTsing’s Mini Essential Oil Diffuser

Product review: North American Hemp Co. Relax and Soak Moisturizing Body Wash Cream

March 19, 2019

I’m a big fan of a luxurious body wash, but I’m not exactly willing to spend big bucks to have some myself. So, when I had a shower at home a few weeks ago and joyfully discovered a fancy new addition to my family’s selection of body washes, you best believe I was all over … More Product review: North American Hemp Co.

Product review: Living Proof Perfect Hair Day Night Cap Overnight Perfector

February 28, 2019

If I’m being honest, I’ll admit that one of the greatest perks of being an online Sephora customer is the free samples and the sample sizes of products you can add to your order with your Beauty Insider points. Granted, the sample sizes are pitiful, but hey, you get to try out fancy schmancy items … More Product review: Living Proof Perfect Hair Day Night Cap Overnight Perfector

Product review: Earthly Delights’ vanilla sugar scrub

December 30, 2018

I apologize for the surplus in product reviews as of late, however, after receiving some products for Christmas, and others shortly before Christmas time, I figure I may as well offer my opinion of them in case someone else is contemplating giving them a try. My sister, who coincidentally happens to be the owner of … More Product review: Earthly Delights’ vanilla sugar scrub

Product review: Bath & Body Works Magic in the Air Foaming Sugar Scrub

December 28, 2018

If there’s one thing I love about Christmas gifts, it’s the bath products I receive and the fun I have in experimenting with them. Some may say if bath products excite me, I should get out more. Perhaps this observation has validity and I do, in fact, live a relatively unexciting life, but it really … More Product review: Bath & Body Works Magic in the Air Foaming Sugar Scrub

Product review: L’oreal Paris Total Repair hair mask

December 20, 2018

Winter can prove to be pretty ruthless when it comes to hair health. Cold temperatures and hair just don’t really blend, and so, hair tends to get a little crispy around January. It does for me, living in Canada, anyways. So, I tend to use hair masks a little more often during the winter than … More Product review: L’oreal Paris Total Repair hair mask

Product review: bareMinerals Stroke of Light Under Eye Concealer

November 14, 2018

I’ve been pretty committed to my Tarte Shape Tape concealer, however, since my supply is running quite low, I needed to broaden my concealer options according to what I had on-hand. Enter my mom’s makeup stash. Yes, desperate times call for desperate measures. I noticed that she had the bareMinerals Stroke of Light Under Eye … More Product review: bareMinerals Stroke of Light Under Eye Concealer
