Formulated with black silt that's sustainably harvested from Finnish lakes, the Detoxifying Silt Gelee Mask promises to do exactly that! To read more about it, click......

Volition Beauty | Snow Mushroom Water Serum: Review
Released last year, the Strawberry-C Brightening Serum from Volition Beauty was one of my favorite serums thanks to its lovely texture and clean ingredients.

Harnessing the power of the snow mushroom, which can hold up to 500 times its weight in water, the Snow Mushroom Water Serum (C$82 for 30 ml) promises a "hydrating, plumping, and pore-minimizing" effect.

Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links and the product featured was provided for review.
Recently, through browsing Sephora's new arrivals' section, I noticed a skincare brand called Volition Beauty. Upon further reading, I discovered that unlike traditional beauty companies, Volition employs an innovative crowdsourcing strategy that relies on consumers to create products that meet their needs.
