Wrapping up 2022! 2022 has been an excellent year for me discovering probably the best skin + hair care products. It has been a great year since I started with a struggle for hair loss and developed some skin issues but manages to tackle them by end of the year. I found this year I wasn’t able to test as much as I used to, I felt many brands were not offering much for Canadian PR due to Covid back locks but today I am rounding up my favourite products that made me switch with my older ones.

Face Cleansers:
- Dior La Mousse OFF/ON Foaming Face Cleanser best hydrating cleanser that deeply cleanses skin and skin feel soft and smooth.
