SUMMER REFRESHER// Beauty, Wellness,

 TIME FOR A REFRESHER

Its been awhile since we had our haircut,  manicures or pedicures. I am thinking its definitely time , I would love a nice spa day  and finally a haircut. Plus its time to refresh the makeup supplies. Something I haven't been using much during the Covid times.  


Lets Make-up


I admit I have gotten out of the habit to wearing much makeup,  especially when staying at home. Meanwhile I think it is time to get back into the habit of at least wearing some lipstick , perhaps some bronzer for colour . Basically it has been au-naturalle.

Nowadays there is a big push towards organic or natural, and seeing so many products that use that word on the products made me wonder , how can we be sure that it is?  So  I found an interesting report on the ingredients  in the products we use  from shampoos to cosmetics. Especially the ones we should avoid.  The names of them are definitely not easy to say or remember,  but important to know if you are buying cosmetics or any other personal products.

Here is the report via healthline, written by medical professionals https://www.healthline.com/health/beauty-skin-care-cosmetics#prohibited-ingredients



OH MY NAILS

There is nothing nicer than a good manicure and pedicure. I think many of us negligent our feet . We cram are toes into shoes that are to tight or pinching . We wear heels that are not good for our feet.  Poor feet.

So of course it is important to take care of them too, like we do with the rest of our body. A decent pedicure is worth it, and now with the summer sandals its the right time to get one!





Enjoy your summer everyone!

Flying high // travel

B  Time to Fly   Sumer holidays are around the corner and deciding where to go or what to pack can e daunting experience.  So what to pack ? Well after reading how some airlines charge passenger to check the baggage. First I believe the budget airlines started , but now the big name ones have also started to charge it! American Airlines , southwest , Air Canada .  And the extra cost if is a jackpot for the airlines.  I have not travel with the budget lines but have used some of the others mentioned  and  I won’t be booking any trips with them!  Really what do they think? If the operate a service to transport you and your belongs  that should be included , NOT an extra expense.  Give you an idea of what they collect in these extra fees  then read this report via BBC.  Truthfully people need to tell these companies  NO .  Even a handbag is next to the list.   They are making BILLIONS from from these extra fees!...

THIS and THAT//fashion , festival

 Season Changes Well it has finally cooled down which makes it bearable to be outside. Naturally the swimming pools , lakes and rivers have seen plenty o people .  Festivals , Films  and Fashion  The festival season is winding down,  but one that I anxiously wait for is the Venice Film festival. A movie and fashion lover can’t miss it!  The return of Clooney on screen in  Venice with his gorgeous wife is a highlight.  Her fabulous fuchsia gown with the train was stunning . She stole the show!  Of course there were other stars on the red carpet  but no outstanding dresses .  Movies some are getting mentioned . For myself I’m not  sure what I be tempted to watch.  Julia  Roberts new one about college professor sexual harassment is a serious topic . Not light entertainment.  One film with Helen mirren, pierce Brosnan  about senior mystery book club sounds like light entertainment. The actors are all over 60 , s...
