Current skin care routine

These are the products I use either everyday or once a week to keep my skin clean and happy.
Enjoy (:



These are the two masks I use bi weekly, I love them both and how they work with my skin. The St.Ives firming mask is a clay that within 15 minutes or less dries onto your face and after you rinse it off makes your skin feel amazing. I am only 23 so I am not worried about wrinkles but there is oohing wrong with early prevention ;) . The mask from Mark was a gift from my grandma since she works with Avon , and I have repurchased it since because I like it that much. My skin does get dry from time to time so it works out perfectly to be using this every other week to give my skim that boost of hydration. This also smells really yummy.

These guys live in my shower and I start off with cleansing my skin with the Murad cleanser , I use the acne one just to help prevent acne which isn't that reoccurring with my skin. It's stuff smells fresh and leaves your skin all tingly and soft. Then I use one of my scrubs every other day, my skin is prone to many white heads and this is my way of keeping them under control. These work equally as we'll the only main difference is that the scrubbing beads in the Aveeno scrub are finer and more gentle , and since I switch every day it gives my skin a break from the bigger ones in the St.Ives scrub.

Moisturizers are really important in my skincare routine because when I get out of the shower or after I take of make up at night my skin gets so tight and unhappy it just needs a cream to calm it down. I recently just purchased the Origins - Make a difference moisturizer and I'm in love with it. I had an older one before but it wasn't directed to my skin type so I never thought about the brand ever again until I went to their counter in a mall close by. I will be doing another post about some more of their products soon so I will go into more detail then :). The mark moisturizer is my night time cream I don't know why but it just feels so good on my skin after cleansing , nothing else has been able to match it so far.

Bioderma, this has had me hooked to taking off my makeup every night because it just works so well and it makes the process so much simpler since you do not have to use water. This use to be one of my worst habits of going to bed with my makeup still on but since I discovered this guy it is no longer a problem. The toner from The Body Shop is something I use every now and then when I think that my skin needs a little more cleansing. 

This bad boy is my every week deep cleansing ritual. I also use it sometimes after I put on moisturizer just to give it an extra massage into my skin. This come with disposable cleansing pads that clear out clogged pores and all the nasty stuff that your skin pick up during the week. I use mine in the shower just because I find it more relaxing and unwinding that way.

Like most people I have heard about this store everywhere online. Yet being in Canada I thought meh they will never come here and I will never be able to see their clothing or buy anything from them. Surprise surprise... they opened a store here in Montreal !!!! It was right around the same time that I discovered the brand online as well !
What I love about it so far:
1. Jewlery - So unique !
2. Sofffffffft clothing - Like you can sleep in everything soft
3. Nice staff - Super excited happy to be there people , makes being in the store make me smile.

Meh about:
1.Cropped everythings - Not my thing
2. Return policy - Non existent...  You just get a store credit. Bleh.
