Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair Cleanser and Retinol Oil

I was pumped up to get the opportunity to test part of Neutrogena's Rapid Wrinkle Repair line of products. I did put a short form review up on my Instagram a while back, but that was more of a first impressions type because it was due within two weeks of testing. However, this product does promise results in as little in one week. Below are my original reviews with any edits that I have thought about after trying these two products for a longer duration.

I was sent the Prep Cleanser and Retinol Oil. The line also carries a night moisturizer, eye moisturizer, serum, and a few others. Here are my thoughts on these two!

15 Years in Canada!

It's hard to believe that today marks 15 years in Canada for me. 15 years ago, I made one of the biggest decisions I have ever made when I decided to leave everything I had ever known to come to Toronto. When the heart calls, I believe we should answer. Today's post is about how one decision changed my life and how you shouldn't be afraid to leave your comfort zone and leap into the unknown.

InstaMonth for September 2019

September through December is not only my favorite time of year, but it's my favorite time to be on social media. I mean, I'm kind of in a "bleh" moment with social media as a whole, but I love all of the fall and holiday visuals shared during this time. There's just something so special about all of the fashion, holiday decor, etc.

I'm starting to take my social media down that path, sharing more autumnal choices on Instagram and Pinterest. Does the time of year change how you post and what you post and view? Which season gives you the most inspiration? I'm in my moment right now! Here are a few posts from my Instagram during September.

Blog of the Month for October 2019 - And I Get Dressed

In September, Eithne from Tea & Nail Polish was my featured blogger (who just got engaged, if you want to throw a congratulations her way!). You can read that post and see other past featured blogs under the "blog of the month" label! Being my blog of the month gets you a designated blog post, a sidebar button, and a mention on my Twitter account. The sidebar button stays up all month long. I don't believe in necessarily making bloggers pay for advertising and I'd much rather show you blogs that I really enjoy reading. And I hope you end up enjoying them too!

This month, I've chosen Kellie from And I Get Dressed. I don't remember what came first, me stumbling upon her blog or her delightful YouTube channel. If you're into fashion and style, this gal is overflowing with it. If you want openness and vulnerability, she's got that too. Kellie is so unapologetically herself that you can't help but appreciate the realness. And if you're plus-sized like myself, you'll absolutely walk away with some ideas and tips on where to shop and any body type will probably waltz to your closet and think about how you can restyle something in a way that you never would have thought of. I hope you'll check out Kellie and see how she might inspire you!

September 2019 Monthly Favorites

Yay for October! The holiday rush is starting and I am so ready for it. The first of my two Thanksgivings is just around the corner and I'm already pulling out our Halloween themed movies and shows to watch. Halloween isn't my top holiday, but it rounds out my top three just behind Christmas and Thanksgiving. What's your favorite holiday? Honestly, I just loooove talking all things holidays. If I could just live in a world like in The Nightmare Before Christmas where you can just open a door and escape into any given holiday...

But before I delve further into my October posts, I'm going to go back into the past momentarily with my September monthly favorites. I'll finish up my September posts with my InstaMonth round-up next week. Let me know in the comments if you have tried any of my favorites this month or what you have been loving. I know a lot of new launches are happening right now with the holidays coming up. I can barely keep up!
