Take the Y’OUR Skin Care Quiz and Try Skincare Customized Just For You

June 6, 2019 by Kathryn 5 Comments

As somebody that deals with hormonal acne and is also reaching a time in my life where anti-aging products are a must, I’ve tried a lot of skincare regimens over the years.

Some have been good, some have been bad and I’ve gradually found some favourites. But they’ve all had one thing in common…they’re all mass produced for thousands of different women.

Y’OUR skin care wants to change all that, with custom-made products designed especially for the woman using them. And I was thrilled when they offered me the chance to test my own custom-designed skincare collection! [Read more…]

If there’s one thing that kids tend to find universally appealing, it’s blind box collectibles. Just like my own generation once collected hockey card packs, POGs and Beanie Babies, today’s kids are now going crazy for collectible blind box squishy toys, figurines and vehicles of all kinds.

If your kids love collectibles as much as mine, you may be wondering what new options are available for your little one. Make sure to check out these seven hot new blind box collectibles to be the coolest parent on the block!

Tonka Tinys

Being tiny has never been more fun! Tonka Tinys each come in a small crate, which can be opened and connected to other sets to create roads for the vehicles to use. Each set includes tiny accessories like stop signs and road stickers, so that young city planners can create the ultimate roadway for their vehicles. There are over 100 different Tonka Tiny vehicles to collect, from construction vehicles to race cars. And when the fun is done, the roadways fold back into little crates to keep the cars safe until next time! [Read more…]

Keep Your Pet Hydrated with a PetSafe Canada Drinkwell Pet Fountain-Giveaway

May 10, 2019 by Kathryn 87 Comments

With an almost full-grown dog and a Bengal cat in the house, we go through a fair amount of pet food…and even more water. The two animals love to chase each other and play games with the kids. And after a round of playtime, they’re always thirsty.

But, even more than that, Hermes the Bengal cat just can’t get enough water! Like most Bengals, he loves to play with water and often jumps up to the sink as soon as he hears the tap running.

I’ve thought for some time about getting the two animals some sort of dog or cat fountain instead of their standard metal dish on the floor. And luckily for me, PetSafe Canada came to my aid and gave me the chance to review its new Drinkwell 7.5 Litre Pet Fountain! [Read more…]

For the last three months now, I’ve been sharing some of the highlights of my new exercise routine and how I keep it fun.

There have been weeks that I’ve fallen out of my healthy habits a bit (what can I say, I’m a sucker for Mini Eggs!), but I always remind myself the most important thing to focus on isn’t missing a few days…it’s starting again!

Freshen Up Your Spring with New Live Clean Natural Vegan Deodorant-Giveaway

May 6, 2019 by Kathryn 105 Comments

As much as I love using naturally-sourced products when I can, there are some occasions in which I simply can’t find one that works as well as I want it to.

One of the reasons I love Live Clean products is because I know that anything the company offers is going to work well. From the foaming hand soap to the shampoos and conditioners, Live Clean quality is simply unmatched.

So, when I recently opened a surprise package from the company and saw that Live Clean now offers a vegan deodorant that’s 99% naturally derived, I quite honestly gave a little squeal of delight! I’ve never found a natural deodorant that worked as well as I wanted…but I knew if anyone could get it right, Live Clean could! [Read more…]
