Garnier Clean + For Sensitive Skin
I recently had the chance to try Garnier Clean + For Sensitive Skin, a make-up remover that I received from Garnier Canada for review purposes. The product, which does not contain alcohol, dyes or fragrances which can strip away moisture or irritate skin, removes more make-up (including eye make-up) with the same amount than my […]

Dare2Give Holiday Campaign
The holiday season is coming up, and it’s a time about giving, not receiving. Sure, as kids, we made long lists to our parents’ dismay, but at school and other youth-related activities, we were also given the opportunity to help. I remember collecting food for the food bank as well as bringing in toys. As […]

Get Ready, Get Set for Shoppers Drug Mart’s 30 Days of Beauty!
It’s time to make a shopping wish list. It’s not for back-to-school, since I don’t have kids and am only taking one continuing education course online (I graduated from university more than 10 years ago), but for beauty products. It’s nearly fall, after all, and time to replenish some favourites and maybe even […]
Milk Poached Black Cod with Garlicky ‘Mornay’ Sauce
So first of all, what IS a Mornay sauce? According to foodterms.com, it is a cheese sauce usually made with Parmesan and Swiss. Since the following recipe uses a cheese mixture of Mozzarella and Cheddar, it is not Mornay by traditional standards (and thus, in quotations). But it doesn’t matter. It’s still a cheese sauce […]
Spring Beauty Renewal and Some Easy, Lightweight Favourites
Spring is coming up. Many women take advantage of the new season to revamp their look. Some might buy new, stylish clothes to mix with the classics in their closet. Others look into accessories. For me, it is definitely beauty. It is out with the heavy, intense looks of fall and winter and in with […]
Holiday 2013: Making Gift Giving a Cinch at Shoppers Drug Mart
