Crest White Strips HALF OFF!

      Just wanted to let you guys know about a deal that I found at my local grocery, so if you guys have a Canadian Superstore near you I say you should check this out!!!!!

Crest Whitestrips Premium for $20!!!!!!!!!!!

      The original price for the Premium is actually around $40. You're basically getting BOGO free!

      It's been a long time since I whitened my teeth... probably first year of High School? I used Crest Whitestrips Classics back then (since it was the cheapest one) and it worked pretty great! The only reason I actually haven't re-whitened is because they worked so well I didn't feel the need to! I didn't even get to finish the entire box - mainly because of sensitive teeth complications - but my teeth were at the whiteness I desired. ..which was almost an unnatural white (which is a good thing in this case!!).
      It wasn't that hard trying to keep my teeth white-er than usual. I also used Scope White as a whitening Mouthwash to maintain the clean, white-looking feel. It works pretty well on both the whitening and mouthwash part. I like it even better since it doesn't have such a harsh alcohol feel to it, unlike Listerine which stiings like a biznatch! So if you like a gentle mouthwash, Scope White is a good alternative to going straight to bleaching strips.

      Go check out the Whitestrips deal while it's still available!

FAVE NAIL POLISHES!



I have an obsessssssion with nails! Seriously, I always alternate polishes regularly simply because I can't get enough of having a different color on my nails. Did that even make sense? Anyway, just thought I would briefly (probably not brief, but whatevs) go over my favorite nail polishes ever :) Also, what I personally think are staples in any collection!

Everyday Face/"Natural" Glow

      Inga here! Our first official Face of the Day (FOTD) segment continued by the lovely Miss Ingrid :p



This is literally my go-to face.


      When I'm on my way to school, the boyfriend's house (sometimes; he usually prefers me au naturale), (ex)work, etc etc, the only time for me to actually get ready is on transit (bus, subway) ..so THIS. IS. IT!!!! ....though I totally don't advise you guys to do make-up on-the-go. Totally dangerous. If I wasn't so awesome, I could've poked my eye out (I'm almost always 87% there). Mind you, my travel time usually takes 45 mins to an hour since my school is downtown and my boyfriend lives in a different city, so I get a little bored and maybe a little overboard with this routine.
      Let me assure you - all those extra steps are going to be helpful. I know it might be a little too much for everyday use? ..but since I don't actually go OUT every single day, my face gets ample time to breathe. My face is acne prone and I have lots of redness/discoloration from scarring and ...I'm guessing just hormones?... so I'm definitely not perfect.
