If you didn’t grab a holiday set during December, don’t worry, it’s not too late.
With it being a deep freeze right now and warnings to not even go outside, my hair has been taking a beating when I take my dog out for a walk. Thankfully MoroccanOil sent over one of their holiday sets (which you can still get at Sephora) which is perfect for damaged hair.
Their Magic of Hair Repair Gift Set (C$76, valued at C$108) is a limited-edition gift set which features three full-size products and a deluxe sample of their iconic argan oil serum. Included in here is the Moisture Repair Shampoo, Restorative Hair Mask, Perfect Defense spray, and the Moroccanoil Treatment (10 ml).
Perfect for straight, wavy, curly, and coily hair, this set is also great for all types of texture. If you suffer from dry, dull, or damaged hair (including split ends and breakage), then this set will be perfect for you.
The Moisture Repair Shampoo helps to gently cleanse and nourish hair. After, apply their Restorative Hair Mask, which helps to infuse damaged locks with keratin proteins. Once out of a shower, use the Moroccanoil Treatment to fight frizz and boost shine, and then spray on the Perfect Defense spray which protects hair against thermal damage and hot tools up to 450 degrees F.
I think this set is a great deal if you already use MoroccanOil products. These products also contain their argan oil, so you will be left with nourished and healthy hair, which is really important this time of the year since the cold makes it so drying. If you have other hair concerns, MoroccanOil has a few different sets available as well. These are limited editon for the holidays, so if you are interested, grab one sooner rather than later!

One of my favourite skincare brands just released their first two body care products. And I couldn’t be more excited.
You guys know my love for Tula. I use their products regularly and every time they release a new one I need to get my hands on it. Late last year I got the news that they were finally moving into the body care line, which truthfully, it never even occurred to me that they don’t even have body products yet. Until now, that is.
Made with the same probiotic extracts and superfoods as their beloved face products, Tula’s two new body products help to nourish, protect, and polish the body from head to toe.
As you may know, Tula’s products are doctor founded and 100 per cent clean and clinically effective to work. They also contain probiotic extracts and superfoods so your skin is fed all the good stuff from Mother Nature.
Starting first with the Take Care + Polish Exfoliating Body Wash ($34 USD, use code SHAYNA for 15 per cent off, bringing it to $28.90!), this body cleanser and exfoliator all-in-one is made with a triple AHA blend that gently dissolves dirt and debris on the skin, leaving you with smoother, softer, and more even-looking skin.
This cleanser does foam up, which is really nice. It contains the brand’s S6Pro Complex, as well as lemon peel, cherry seed, and hibiscus flower acid. It also has a Triple AHA blend of glycolic, malic and lactic acids. The exfoliating beads are biodegradable, so they won’t harm you or the environment.
Use this in the shower to buff away dry and dull skin. Once rinsed off it will leave you with better texture and a more even skin tone. It also features a pleasant scent of cherry and lemon, which is refreshing and delightful.
Once out of the shower, treat your skin to the Take Care + Nourish Advanced Hydration Body Moisturizer ($38 USD, use code SHAYNA for 15 per cent off your order, bringing it to $32.30). This skincare-first moisturizer is perfect for the body for its hydration power. It contains Vitamin C and Yuzu to improve the look of skin tone for healthier skin and a more luminous glow.
The formula also includes the S6Pro Complex, hyaluronic acid and ceramides. Finally, for optimal hydration, the shea butter and coconut oil will leave you feeling soft and smooth. This moisturizer has a scent of vanilla and coconut, which makes it a real treat.
I also want to note that if you are interested in purchasing both these products, then pick up Tula’s Body Care Set, where you can get both items for $55, which saves you $17.
I’m really excited to deep dive into these products in the upcoming months and love how they came during the winter months, when my skin tends to get very dry and flakey. I have high hopes for these since I know Tula makes amazing items and I’m sure these will be just as incredible as their skincare.
Don’t forget, you can get 15 per cent your entire Tula order with code SHAYNA.

When it comes to skincare, I’ve tried a lot of brands, but one in particular has always been a constant highlight in my routine and that’s Skinceuticals.
The medical-grade skincare brand is one that you can find at medispas, dermatology offices, and more. It’s a brand that is often used to correct signs of aging, as well as to complement aesthetic procedures.
Now I’ve used a ton of items from the brand and overall have really loved all of them. Their items are quite pricey so if you want to give Skinceuticals a go but don’t know where to start, then don’t worry, I got you. Keep reading…
HA Intensifier
Skinceuticals is known for their serums and if there is one product to pick up, then I would definitely recommend one of their serums (okay maybe two, a hyaluronic acid serum and a Vitamin C one).
If you are looking for something for firming, then take a look at their H.A. Intensifier (C$132). This serum is designed to be used after a Vitamin C serum and is ideal for all types of skin.
The H.A. Intensifier is a multi-beneficial corrective serum that is proven to amplify skin’s hyaluronic acid levels. It’s ideal for anti-aging and sun damage and can help reduce the look of crow’s feet, nasolabial folds, and marionette lines. It’s great to use if you already get Botox and fillers as it complements these procedures.
The formula contains a high concentration of pure hyaluronic acid, as well as proxylane, and botanical extracts of licorice root and purple rice to support skin’s hyaluronic acid levels. With regular use it will help with hydration, as well as improve the appearance of firmness, smoothness, and plumpness.
In the morning apply it after your Vitamin C and at night apply it after your retinol.
Silymarin CF Serum
A great serum to pair the HA Intensifier with is their Silymarin CF Serum, which is one of the newest products from the brand.
The Silymarin CF (C$190) is a Vitamin C ideal for those who suffer from breakouts or acne. This serum is specifically formulated for those who have oily and blemish-prone skin. It is proven to reduce oiliness, refine skin texture, and visibly improve skin clarity and fine lines.
This serum contains 0.5 per cent silymarin, which is milk thistle extract that helps to prevent oil oxidation and provides antioxidant protection against free radicals. It also has 15 per cent L-ascorbic acid, 0.5 per cent ferulic acid, and 0.5 per cent salicylic acid, which refines pores and helps to prevent skin against breakouts.
Skinceuticals says that with regular use, this serum can prevent breakouts from happening since it targets oil oxidation. It also will reduce oiliness, refine skin texture, minimize pores, and visibly improve skin clarity and fine lines. Although I don’t have acne or suffer from many breakouts, this serum will come in handy to prevent maskne. You can also use it as a spot treatment as well or just apply it to the lower half of the face if you want it to go a long way (which, at $190 a pop, this isn’t something you want to rush through).
I’ve tried a bunch of their Vitamin C serums and really love this one and the CE Ferulic one (which is more ideal for my normal to dry skin). They are all great options and one of the best Vitamin C serums out there. They are pricey but well worth the investment!
Physical Fusion UV Defense SPF 50 Sunscreen
The last step in your daytime routine should be a sunscreen and Skinceuticals makes one of the best ones out there.
The Physical Fusion UV Defense SPF 50 sunscreen (C$51) is ideal for protecting your skin from the harmful rays of the sun. It’s a broad-spectrum 100 per cent physical sunscreen that is also great to use post-procedure, as well as sensitive skin and dry skin.
Now I know facial sunscreens are a dime a dozen nowadays but this one is a great one to pick up, especially since it’s a medical-grade brand. It contains artemia salin, a plankton extract that is known to increase skin’s resistance to UV and heat-induced stress.
Now this is just the tip of the iceberg in terms of Skinceuticals products and I really could go on and on about more items from the brand. I wanted to keep this post short and sweet and highlight the products that I feel would be the most worthwhile to pick up and I truly believe that these are all great options to add to your skincare collection.
