Documenting my Trials and Tribulations with Beauty Products
Bioderma Atoderm Intensive Gel-Crème caught my eye while perusing my local pharmacy in the late summer of 2023. The minimal ingredients, the texture, the cooling sensation… I immediately had to pick it up and give it a try before summer was out. 6 months and an almost empty tube later, I thought it was due…
I have had more than enough time to try out all the products from my Niche Beauty Lab haul back in 2022.

I first heard of Regimen Lab from Sarah of No BS Beauty, and shortly after watched Dr. Dray’s brand review. I was so pleasantly surprised to learn that a science-backed, peer-reviewed skincare brand existed in Toronto, Canada, where I’m from! When I looked at Regimen Lab’s website for the first time, I really liked what…
When I first heard I’m From came out with a Pear line, I couldn’t help but raise a brow. I felt like they were really stretching the plant and fruit extracts idea and I didn’t have high expectations. Now don’t get me wrong, I absolutely love some of their skincare like the I’m From Rice…
Another Sunday, another sunscreen review! The Colorescience Total Eye 3-in-1 Renewal Therapy SPF35 PA+++ was a purchase inspired by many beauty lovers in the bloggersphere!
