WAXON Wax Bar Review

Posted on January 9, 2017January 6, 2017 by Sohnee

Moving to a new area means finding new places to go for your beauty needs. I recently moved south from my previous midtown location and had to find a new spot for my waxing needs. Being South Asian, you know this girl has a lot of hair. I do what I can to keep it…

Love & Nudes Lingerie

Posted on November 21, 2016March 30, 2020 by Sohnee

When you hear “nude”, what shade comes to mind? Off white? Light beige? Maybe something with a blush undertone? Well, if you’re a POC like me, then those shades are too light to be considered nude. Unfortunately, many companies continue to market “nude” products, forgetting that so many of us don’t fall into a spectrum…

We’ve got a new season of lip shades, textures, and products, people! This season, I’m excited about a new collection of liquid lip colours:  NARS Velvet Lip Glide ($34).

Darphin Paris Skincare

Posted on September 30, 2016September 29, 2016 by Sohnee

I always love discovering new-to-me skincare brands. Have you heard of Darphin Paris Skincare before? As the name gives away, this is a Parisian-based beauty brand that has been known for creating skincare products through a pharmacy approach, emphasizing the science behind beauty (sounds right up my alley!). If you can’t make it to Paris right…

6 Easy Steps To Strobing

Posted on September 22, 2016September 21, 2016 by Sohnee

What is strobing? Many of you have likely heard of this makeup technique, probably because of Instagram makeup accounts…at least that’s how I first heard about it. Strobing is a great effect that can be used to make your skin look luminescent, glowing from within. In simplest terms, it’s exaggerated highlighting. You may have been…

Posted on August 22, 2016March 30, 2020 by Sohnee

{Travel Essential: Croc Plug Flat Mini Iron} Traveling has always been stressful for me. No wait, let me correct that – packing has always been stressful for me. Whether it’s a week-long trip abroad or a quick weekend away, I can’t manage to pair my stuff down quite enough. Over the years, I have gotten a…

Moroccanoil Texture Collection

Posted on August 8, 2016August 7, 2016 by Sohnee

Moroccanoil is a name that is synonymous with smooth, shiny, silky hair. Anyone with curls knows that Moroccanoil is also great for nourishing dry locks to keep the frizz down, too. Did you know that this Canadian brand has come out with a new line of texturizing products? They’re not just about smoothness anymore! {Moroccanoil…

  • Things I love: ✨ Making friends ✨ Learning about nature and science ✨ Supporting women-owned businesses ✨ Discovering new eco-friendly products ✨ Wearing @dobetterfolks shirts ✨ Having cute lil’ photo moments I got to do all of these at @herewardfarms earlier this month! I spent the afternoon with Julie, explored the lavender fields, tried out her amazing products, had some snacks and sparkling wine, and laughed so hard I cried. Hereward is just an hour and a half from Toronto, but I genuinely felt like I went on an entire retreat. I absolutely recommend checking out Hereward’s lavender-infused products or
  • ✨ Don’t sleep on the incredible brands available at @shoppersdrugmart! ✨ “Drugstore beauty” used to be a somewhat of a disparaging term, but now it represents so many of the best brands in the beauty and skincare game! What’s more, SO many of these brands are cruelty-free, sustainably sourced, and packaged responsibly. Great value, easily accessible, AND ethical? It doesn’t get better than that.

  • I love a good peel-off mask - especially when it
  • A little @watierofficial love I’ve been wearing these products pretty much daily since I first got to try them in May! ✨ The 24 Hrs Glam Intense mascara is lightweight with major staying power, yet easy to remove with a cleansing balm. The Smokey Kohl Velours pencils are fabulous for waterlining and creating beautiful blended liner. The 24 hrs Glam eyeshadows have such gorgeous rich color and are so lovely to blend! And the Rouge Velours Mat Suprême lip is, of course, iconic! What’s your fave Watier product? *Products kindly gifted —————————————————————————— #torontobeautyreviews #mytbrfave #tbrcontributors #watier #groupemarcelle #canadianbrand #canadianbeauty #torontobeauty
  • Some things are definitely worth celebrating ✨ Adopting our dog Guster was the best decision we ever made. ❤️ He was a stray and had been hit by a car and then abandoned, which meant he had to have several complex surgeries to reconstruct his leg. His recovery was long and difficult, and it took him a while to realize he was safe and loved and in his forever home post-adoption. But after lots of training, love, and with a great medical team, Gus has flourished. (If you need proof, just check out @adam__malek’s account!) We wanted to celebrate Guster’s
