Hi beauties. I hope everyone is having a great week? I've been doing some decluttering around the house this month and have decided to only hang onto the things that I absolutely need (ok that doesn't entirely apply to my shoe, beauty and essential oil collection but I promise I've been scaling back!). Sometimes it ...
A few weekends ago, I attended the ChickAdvisor Showcase in Toronto. ChickAdvisor, for those of you who don't know is a product review site where you can apply to try products out for free. To participate in their Product Review Club, members must first register for a free account, then independently review 5 products on their own ...
