Fake summer well into fall with Conair, Indeed and Essence!

For the perfect day-at-the-beach waves:

 

Conair Triple Barrel Waver - $49.99 - with a triple barrel that creates continuous, uniform deep waves, while the double ceramic technology delivers even heat for fast styling and long-lasting results. It's great for every hair type thanks to the 30 heat settings along with turbo heat that gives a 27°F burst of heat for difficult-to-style spots.

 

I have covid to thank for actually having enough hair to try something like this out. I have fine hair but a lot of it and in the past have found hair tools complicated that end up being useless because my hair just does not want to hold a curl. Curls may be a no but waves are a big yes - not only was it so easy to use, but the waves it adds are gorgeous and just last and last! I use the waver and then spray in a little  salt spray to give it a bit of texture and I look just like a mermaid (well a mermaid with clothes)!

Eye Love Wednesday - Shiseido Waso Eye Opening Essence

Shiseido Waso Eye Opening Essence - 20ml - $32 - a cooling gel that visibly counteracts signs of eye fatigue, dark circles and puffiness for brighter under-eyes.

Just a pinch of the moisture-rich jelly droplets instantly defines and enhances the eye area, similar to the way momijioroshi brings out the umami (flavour) of a dish. Eyes look clearly defined and revitalized with essential vitamins.

The texture and cooling sensation are inspired by daikon, a radish ingredient used in Japanese traditional cusine (“washoku”).

You can also customize your tube with the included YAKUMIX (“yakumi” is Japanese for “condiments”) stickers, a fun ode to Japanese ingredients and cultural motifs.

This week I'm obsessed with... The Case Full Of Seoul - The Best Of Korean Skincare!

The Case Full Of Seoul - The Best Of Korean Skincare - $159.99 - makes it easy to discover all that K-Beauty has to offer with 8 skin-changing products - best when used together, each product has a purpose to target different skin concerns that work to unveil a flawless complexion.

This is a great way to introduce yourself to K-Beauty if you aren't already a fan. If you aren't familiar with the concept, Korean skincare is not a ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach, rather than a one-off treatment it's where the secret to beautiful skin is knowing that it doesn’t happen overnight, but is rather a commitment to a daily routine that will deliver long-lasting results.

The set includes:

9 Wishes Rice Foaming Cleanser -  a micro-ground rice powder textured formula that
works to gently exfoliate away dead skin while cleansing away make-up and other impurities to
leave the skin bright and full of hydration thanks to its nutrient-rich rice water ingredients.

MayCoop Raw Sauce Mini - a toner and emulsion in one that intensely hydrates and revitalizes dull skin using ingredients that mimic molecules in human skin, such as maple tress sap, to help retain extra-high absorbency.

URANG True Rose Repair Essence - with a jelly-like texture containing organic Bulgarian rose water and rose essential oil for a cooling effect to calm down redness and re-energize sensitive skin.

Tov Camellia Wrinkle-Free Eye Solution - fills in fine lines and wrinkles in the delicate eye area with a formula of shea butter and macadamia nut oil.

MayCoop Raw Moisturizer - formulated with maple tree sap for the ultimate hydration experience, in a soothing complex that uses an oil/water balance to allow skin tissue to work as a barrier, absorber and regenerator.

Touch In Sol No Poreblem Primer - with a velvety smooth texture that creates a long-lasting, smooth canvas for flawless makeup application and contains a unique sebum catching powder that controls oil-production to keep skin from appearing greasy as well as minimizing the look of pores, wrinkles and uneven skin.

URANG Vitamin Oil Serum - hydrates and nourishes the skin with rosehip and jojoba oils that  penetrate deeply and provide a brightening effect while repairing the skin hiding discoloration and reducing fine lines.

I Woke Up Like This All-In-One Concentrate Treatment Mask - a tightly-woven microfibre fabric sheet mask with pearl powder, vitamin C and niacinamide to boost hydration that adheres perfectly to the skin for deep penetration of ingredients to provide a brightening effect and even out skin tone.

Along with the products are four different shorter beauty plans to accommodate every aspect of one’s lifestyle:

‘The Morning Glory’ plan for a quick everyday skincare routine to brighten up your day;

‘The Sleeping Beauty’ plan is to unveil the secret of the “I woke up like this” feeling.

the ‘Get Ready with Me’ plan is for whenever and wherever as skincare is the new makeup; and

the ‘Spa Sunday’ plan for when you want to be extra and Spa-ice things up!

Each plan is easy to follow with a step-by-step how-to no matter what your skincare needs might be that day or if you simply don’t have time for the full eight steps.

The Body Shop Roots Of Strength

Unveil your skin's strength with a new line from The Body Shop - Roots Of Strength -  enriched with 3 root extracts: ginger from Madagascar - for plumping, ginseng from China - for firming and ruscus from Europe - for stimulating along with Community Trade soya oil from Brazil.

Chanel Hydra Beauty Micro Liquid Essence

Chanel Hydra Beauty Micro Liquid Essence - 150ml - $135 - with a lightweight, water-like formula that immediately boosts skin's hydration as it refines, moisturizes and prepares the complexion for further skincare.

The formula combines: intensely moisturizing Camellia Micro-Droplets - which are cold-extracted from camellia petals to boost the potential of their incredible energizing power. Dispersed in camellia oil, they demonstrate a particular affinity with the skin owing to their membrane, whose composition is similar to that of skin cells. Like an “injection” of essential nutrients - vitamins, carbohydrates, amino acids and lipids - they refine the skin texture and give incomparable radiance to the complexion;

with Camellia Alba PFA - which stimulates natural hydration mechanisms to maintain the skin’s moisture levels. It also activates the production of lipids that strengthen the skin barrier. Combined with glycerin and hyaluronic acid, it ensures hydration and maintains it with each application; and Blue Ginger - a powerful antioxidant.

I must admit, the most confusing thing about essences for me is how to apply them. They are so liquidy that I want to treat them like a toner, which I keep reminding myself they are not! Rather, think of it as a very fluid serum - to apply, dispense on to palm of hand and press into cheeks, forehead and chin, smoothing from the center of face outward. Follow with a serum and then your regular skincare ritual - you will love the invigorating feel and how energized your skin will instantly feel as well as how plumped and refined it will look!

This week I'm obsessed with... Kat Burki Essential Radiance pH+ Enzyme Essence

Kat Burki Essential Radiance pH+ Enzyme Essence - 100ml - $120 - equalizes the skin's pH level to help the skin’s barrier keep lipids and moisture locked in as well as protect against environmental damage from pollutions, toxins and bacteria and the aging process - helping skin look it's best. 

Containing a unique complex of pH balancing ingredients: fruit enzymes - help to resurface the acid mantle by boosting natural exfoliation for ultra-soft skin; antioxidant dense turmeric - to strengthen; vitamin C from orange hydrosols, pumpkin seed oil and papaya - support collagen to maintain skin structure and firmness; and bioactive pumpkin and papaya enzymes - rich in iron, zinc, C and K to infuse the skin with phytochemicals and fortifying compounds, the strengthening cellular responses and to accelerate the exfoliation process.

Using it is slightly confusing, it's liquidy so you'll be tempted to treat it as a toner but it actually goes on after your toner (if you use one) - just apply a dime size amount to fingertips and pat onto skin allowing it to fully absorb before applying your serum and/or moisturizer.

Available at Murale stores across Canada and online at beautyboutique.ca.

Juice Beauty Green Apple Brightening Essence

Juice Beauty Green Apple Brightening Essence - 120ml - $44 - a hydrating essence that visibly soothes, refines and balances moisture for a brighter, more luminous and smoother complexion.

Essences are confusing - are they a serum? Or are they a moisturizer? Actually neither, think of them more like a toner but rather then rubbing it over and off your face you want to press it into the skin with either your fingers or a cotton pad - follow up with your serum and/or moisturizer and enjoy your brighter skin!
