Recent buys ♡

Hello all, tonight I thought I would make a post about some of the things I've picked up recently. Not insanely exciting, sorry ! 


Alright, so I went to the mall last week with my sister and picked up some new wallflowers for summer because I'm out of all the ones I got for spring and they had a special offer on. I already plugged in the Mango one (I think it was Mango and something, idk it's fruity and lovely) but I loved the smell of the white barn one so I'll use that one next. I love lighting candles but with juggling 3 jobs and everything I'm not home as often, so it's nice to have the room smelling nice all the time without having to light a candle. 

A few days ago I went to Shoppers Drugmart to get some basics. I got some body lotion because it's getting crazy dry here and my skin is suffering, and also a new lotion for my face because after trying out those two Alyria products my face has been so dry and patchy. I used to use the Nivea Soft (below) but stopped because it was a bit too heavy for my skin, I think my skin really needs some extra hydration at the moment though. I also got some Simple make-up wipes because they do they job really well and I'm almost all out of my Bioderma make-up remover :< I also re-purchased the Gosh eyebrow pencil in 01 Brown. This is my favourite drugstore eye-brow pencil and I'm getting low on the one I have (the Anastasia brow pencil's my all-time favourite but it is rather expensive). 


I was also at a Chapters bookstore and I always get distracted by those cute and random knick-knacks they have, and I saw this:

Lastly are those two Alyria products (does anyone else think of She's The Man when seeing the name of this brand?) I went to the dermatologist last week, and he prescribed me some pills that I have yet to take, and also this cleanser and moisturiser. I used them both for about five days, I was told to use the cleanser each morning and night, and the moisturiser just at night. I could tell even after the second day that the cleanser dried my skin right out, it was getting super flaky and patchy, and I think it broke me out too. So I've stopped using it, I might go back and try it when I get my medicine though. Has anybody else tried this brand ? I'm really not so sure about it, especially since I'd never heard of it before.

That's all for now folks ! A big shout out to my followers, Jessica and Andrea. image You may be few in number, but you give me hope and want to keep posting, thank you ! c:
