Winter in Canada definitely has its downs, and this includes very dry and flaky skin. Even with combination skin, my complexion still manages to be dry (weird, right?)

Besides drinking lots of water and eating lots of veggies and fruits, finding a good skincare routine and sticking with it is crucial for healthy skin in the winter. After testing many products for quite a few winters, I finally feel like I've nailed my winter skincare regime!

One of the more controversial eyeshadow palettes being talked about in the makeup community recently is the Makeup Revolution x The Emily Edit The Wants Eyeshadow Palette. By now, I've heard both sides of the review: amazing palette with beautifully made shadows vs. terrible blendability and lack of pigment. With so much debate on this palette, I was dying to get my hands on it, and thanks to Orabel and their insanely fast shipping, I was able to put this palette to the test for the past few weeks!

An on-the-go, busy, and stressful life typically comes with dark circles, eye bags, breakouts, and discolouration. That's why I cannot and will not live without concealer in my makeup routine. With so many concealers on the beauty market, it's tough to decide which one you should be using for your specific needs. Do you want a concealer to use everyday with minimal makeup? Do you need a full-coverage concealer to hide blemishes and hyperpigmentation? What if you have dry skin and are afraid that concealer will cake up on those dry patches? The questions and concerns are endless when it comes to choosing the right concealer for you.

I've rounded up my top five favourite concealers of all-time and in this post, will explain to you why I love each one so much and what each of the five concealers does the best. 

It's extremely important to protect your skin from the sun's harmful rays, but not all sunscreen is right for the face. Many sunscreens on the market actually clog your pores and make your skin very oily and greasy. I've never been a fan of applying sunscreen onto my face which is why I am so thankful to have Coola's SPF 30 Mineral Face Matte Cucumber in my life!
