I'm in search of an effective eye cream that has niacinamide or vitamin c. I learned that that's what my dark circles around my eyes need. I currently use the caffeine eye serum from the ordinary, I'm curious what guys worked for you and what is a good brand. Do you use 2 eye creams or just one. Thanks in advance.

Skincare during Pregnancy

Hi I am a newbie and just starting my skin care routine. I know it sounds sooooo bad. But since I moved to Canada last Dec 2022 I had an awakening to better take care of my skin. The weather in Saskatchewan is so dry and cold. I dont want my skin to look OLD. I want to achieve a skin glass flawless plump skin 🤣 I need advice on how to start. Thanks in advance!

I'm so glad to get my hands on this product. The only thing bad is that I will probably finish it up quickly 😅

I call this the pretty little thing. Its packaging speaks for itself. It's so pink, shiny and pretty. The balm has a lightweight butter like consistency and It glides smoothly on my skin. My skin absorbed it quickly and feels very hydrating. 

This glassy skin balm also helped me achieve a smooth and dewy appearance on my skin. I love the pretty filter effect on my face, makes it look like I've really got a flawless skin. I use it as a moisturizer and a make up primer to make my skin texture refined and add glow to it. ✨

This would probably break my bank compared to other toners in the market. 75ml would cost $20 alone.

This product has been sitting on my desk for quite a few months. I got this from sephora favorites set of minis. I like how it looks with my other pretty in pink products. You know sometimes I just tend to buy things with cute packagings and I'm really drawn to color pink. This past month I have been testing and reviewing different toners and decided to give this one a try. I am very pleased with it. It almost looks like a serum. It has a thin milk watery consistency that glides and spreads smoothly on the skin. It has a scent but very mild and refreshing. Nothing a nauseating pregnant couldn't take. My skin drinks and absorbed it up very quickly. It brightens it up and gives it a glow. It is a very hydrating toner. 



Nothing BAD about this product. I didn't even notice any smell or scent which suits me since I can't stand scented products nowadays. 

✨Benton Bakuchiol Serum
I have been seeing this ingredient Bakuchiol since I have delve into skincare. It is my first time to try it and and I researched beforehand. Bakuchiol is a plant based skincare ingredient that has gained popularity as an excellent alternative to retinoids. It has great potential to treat everything from pre mature aging to acne to skin hyperpigmentation but carries a lower risk of side effects like peeling or redness compared to retinol.

       Since I became pregnant, I’ve been looking for a great alternative to retinol. I’m so happy I am gifted with this. After cleansing my face and using the Benton Snail Bee Ultimate Toner, I applied the Bakuchiol Serum followed by Benton Ceramide Cream. Upon my initial use of the serum it gives a soothing and calming feeling which is great for my sensitive skin. 

     My skin didn’t experience any redness, dryness or stinging of the skin upon application. It is very lightweight and I was able to layer it easily with other products such as moisturizer and sunscreen. I will definitely add bakuchiol to my routine. 

  If you have sensitive skin and prefer a more natural ingredient in your skincare, this is your sign to add Benton Backuchiol serum to your skincare routine. The serum has a concentration of 2.5% which impacts efficacy to get more visible results. It boost collagen production which helps to erase fine lines, improve firmness, smoothness and overall skin quality. Try it two to three times a week and see how your skin tolerates it and then increase frequency.

I love this product. Good for sensitive skin.

Highly recommended for a quick hydration bomb. The mask is thick. You will feel that when you leave it on, it makes the skin very hydrated. There's extra mask that I put on my hands and neck. I used the extra one to prep my face before putting my make up on.

I will probably finish the bottle quickly.

Winter in Canada is no joke. During this time the air becomes drier and even indoor heating can zap the moisture from ones skin. Waking up with a dry skin is not a good thing. That's why its crucial to have a winter beauty routine to keep the skin healthy and hydrated. Thank goodness for this perfect duo, Deep sea droplet serum and Deep sea water cream that I added to my winter skin care routine. It is formulated with sea-based ingredients that not only boosts my skins moisture levels but it also leaves it looking radiant and gives a dewy glow during winter. I now wake up with my skin feeling deeply hydrated and nourished.
