Is the La Mer eye  cream worth it?

I still remember the old days before Nordstrom there was only Holt Renfrew in Vancouver for the top celebrated, high end products.  I was a college student and was eager to try La Mer products.  Of course, I couldn't afford it at the time.  I received the product from a very generous family member.  Today, I am sharing my review on the eye cream .  La Mer The Eye Concentrate.  This product is priced at $295 at Sephora.  Is it worth it?  Watch my Youtube video below to find out.

As always, leave me a comment.  If you have tried this product, you should absolutely leave me a comment to share your thoughts PLEASE.

How To Cover Dark Circles

7/23/2019

I had the pleasure to pick Jen Mathison's brain, another hair god, in Vancouver the other day.  Let me back up a little bit.  I was trained as a makeup artist and eventually learned to do hair in the bridal business.  Because I didn't go to a hair school for my hair training (I learned from many talented hair dressers over the years), I find it beneficial to sit with a hair dresser once in a while to really brush up on some basics and non-basics.  In our conversation, she talked about covering dark circles and it made me reflected on how for years I struggled to cover my own dark circles.  Lots of trial and error experimenting with different products.  Some products sucked Big time, some sucked less and it is still a journey.  I want to share with you what works for me for now.

The Tarte Creaseless concealer seems to be the best I find.  Again, it's different for everyone because some needs massive colour correcting.  For those that do not require major colour correcting, give this concealer a try.  

I actually bought two shades in Sephora that I knew it's either this or that shade.  Sometimes, you just have to take it home and try it first so I did.  Buying two saved me the dilemma and I can be absolutely sure which one works best and keep it.  Afterwards, I returned the other tube.

Check out Jen's work here.  An amazing person, incredibly talented, and funny.
If you don't trust my hair work, definitely go to her.

Here's a quick video.

Hi there,

Thank you for coming to page.  This is my first blog post and my aim is to keep it short and sweet.
If you like, there is a youtube video on this below (scroll down) so check that out.  Leave me a comment, just say hi so I know you came.  It would mean the world to me to have your support :)

In general, two two products are very similar.  Here is a comparison chart.
