Belif | Moisturizing Bomb Toner & Aqua Bomb PHA Exfoliating Toner Pads: Review
I've used a lot of Belif products in the past but I've actually never tried any toners from the brand. Granted, Belif is most known for its moisturizers (namely The True Cream Aqua Bomb and The True Cream Moisturizing Bomb, reviewed here), but the brand has amped up its toner offerings in the past few years.

L'Oreal | True Match Lumi Glotion in "001 Fair Glow": Review and Swatches
I've been trying to embrace the glowy complexion trend lately so I purchased the L'Oreal True Match Lumi Glotion (C$22.49 for 40 ml) when it went on sale at London Drugs. Coincidentally, I got the same product in a recent PR package last week so I knew I would share my thoughts of it with you. Described as a multi-use highlighting lotion, the True Match Lumi Glotion can be worn alone, under foundation, or over foundation as a targetted highlighter. To read more, click......

L'Oreal Paris | Bright Reveal 12% Niacinamide Dark Spot Serum: Review
It's been many years since I've used any skincare products from L'Oreal Paris so I was pleasantly surprised when the brand sent over one of their new releases, the Bright Reveal 12% Niacinamide Dark Spot Serum (C$47.99 for 30 ml) for me a try. In recent years, niacinamide has become a very buzzy ingredient and I've enjoyed its pore-refining properties in many skincare products.
