Hidden gem in Decarie Square! Modelo Salon & Spa is owned & managed by the well known & celebrated hairstylist Sofia Karambela! Give this lady a pair of scissors and she will work her magic!

SUMMER SHADES

New Season = New Makeup! Light & natural colors, that’s what Summer is all about, and this new collection from Jouviance is right on trend :) Jouviance Due Bonne Mine (color Tendresse): Perfect combo of terracotta bronzer & fresh pink blush! It’s hard for me to find the right bronzer, they usually look orange and uneven on my skin tone, which means I only have 1-2 that I like and hold on to for dear life, lol!  This will be my 1rd for sure! The bronzer blends it perfectly with my skin and the blush adds that needed flush. I…

Healthy skin is the key. Moisturizing  & taking care of it keeps it looking youthful & feeling smooth. Best way to achieve that is to use the right products!

CLARINS SUMMER ESSENTIALS

Summer glow. Omg do I need it – I’m pale as a ghost after being covered up for months! When Summer finally makes a decision to stay put, I will be able to tan a bit using this Clarins Sun Care Milk Lotion Spray – I didn’t use this one yet, but I used the SPF 30 Oil last year and it’s by far the best sunscreen protection ever! I applied tons of it while tanning and got the perfect tan without burning (and I usually always burn given my fair skin tone) so I’m pretty sure this product is great…

Regardless of the weather, feels like Spring to me! Dans un Jardin Camellia Eau de Toilette  has a light, fresh floral & citrus scent, which I noticed changes throughout the day once it blends in with my skin.

Dans un Jardin Camellia body cream  really complements the eau de toilette as it…

New favourite: Clarins makeup! I heard great things about Clarins makeup line, but I never tried it; until now. The following pieces have now become part of my everyday routine and I simply can’t get enough, here is why! Clarins Rouge Eclat Lipstick: This creamy, hydrating & nourishing lipstick makes my lips feel smooth & radiant! It’s also age-defying, so it protects the lips in the process. Hands down, my favourite lipstick at the moment, especially color 26 – Rose Praline – it’s a perfect balance between light pink and nude, and it’s absolutely perfect for a neutral look! I…
