Create Cocktails for your Hair with Matrix Style Link

Posted on November 6, 2015March 30, 2020 by Alysia

Cocktails are huge in the bar scene. I’m not a big wine or beer drinker but cocktails are my thing, especially when it’s a tequila or bourbon-based drink. I give much credit to mixologists for coming up with creative drinks by using a combination of liquor, bitters, juices, etc to satisfy/quench your thirst. Sadly, this…

Current Fall Favourites Beauty Round Up

Posted on October 28, 2015October 25, 2015 by Alysia

Jergens Natural Glow Tan Extender Daily Moisturizer I came back from Jamaica close to a month ago but started using this daily moisturizer immediately when I came back. Its fade-fighting technology extends a natural or sunless tan for at least seven days. Now I don’t really know if it was “extending” my tan but I…

Beauty Battle: In Shower Moisturizers

Posted on September 9, 2015September 10, 2015 by Alysia

I had no idea about lotions that can be applied in the shower until MY HUSBAND told me about them. He was travelling in the Philippines and forgot to bring body lotion so he went to pick some up and came across the Nivea In-Shower Body Milk. It was quite interesting for him to find…

  • Fresh nails for Spring! This was my first time getting a dip powder mani. It was so interesting! Apparently it’ll last about 3-4 weeks. I like that I didn’t have to cure the nails with a UV lamp, and that there was less filing than with biogel. I decided not to go with extensions today, but that’s an option as well. So far I’m a fan! Do you prefer shellac, bio-gel, dip, or natural nails? —————————————————————————— #torontobeautyreviews #mytbrfave #tbrcontributors #springmani #dippowdernails #dipmanicure #toronto #torontonails #torontopr #dipnails #nailinspo #bluenails #shortnails #opidippowder #organicnailbar #organicnailbarto #kingwest #freshnails #nailstagram #simplenails #nailsalon
  • Trying out @fentyskin’s Cookies & Clean Detox Face Mask! I love a good mask, and goodness knows my skin needs a bit of help nowadays! ➡️This is one of the products I featured in my blog post about Black-owned beauty brands. I love that it’s not too drying, makes my skin feel refreshed, is cruelty-free, and is part of the Clean at Sephora collection!

  • I got Botox! (Technically, I got Nuceiva, which is a different brand of neuromodulator, but does the same thing) I’ve been feeling uncomfortable with the fine lines on my forehead, and wanted to try out neuromodulators! It was easier and much less painful than I anticipated, but definitely was a bit of an emotional journey. ➡️ I got 24 units during this visit, at a cost of $11 each. (Cost will vary depending on brand of neuromodulator, the clinic you choose, and the person who does the treatment) ➡️ This treatment will probably last around 3 months, and then will
