Cake Beauty Goodies + Buytopia Deal!

Categories: Beauty

Are you a fan of sweet fragrances? How does hand cream that smells like orange creamsicle sound? I love dessert inspired bath and body products, but with so many on the market, I look for quality ingredients and subtle fragrance. I discovered Cake Beauty a few years ago and they’ve been one of my go-to brands for delectable body products ever since. The fragrances are fresh, not overbearing, the ingredients are high-quality, natural and 100% paraben-free PLUS these yummy products are made right here in Toronto!

I currently have their deserted island (Tahitian vanilla and fresh coconut) soap and lotion by the sink in my washroom and my house guests love it too! Needless to say, I was excited when I saw the latest deal on Buytopia

Cake Beauty

This Buytopia deal gets you $50 worth of products for just $25! Act soon because this deal ends on Saturday (May 4, 2013). You can buy one $25 voucher for yourself and UNLIMITED as gifts!

Not a fan of scented products? No worries, the Cake Beauty un-sweet collection has all the quality of the scented products minus the fragrance.

Cake BeautyI decided to go for the Cake Beauty it’s a slice body lotion (orange-vanilla scent) and the satin sugar volumizing dry shampoo – I use dry shampoo all the time and I haven’t tried this one yet.

Lastly, to bump me up to $50, I threw in the travel size milk made velveteen hand cream – it’s moisturizing without being too greasy on my hands.

I can’t wait for my order to arrive!

If you’re not sure what to try, I recommend one of the travel size gift sets to sample a few of their bestsellers – they make lovely gifts too! Hint hint…Mother’s Day is coming!

Upper Canada Mall x JOYA Collaboration

I’ve been living in Toronto for over a decade and while I consider myself a downtown girl, there are a lot of great shopping destinations outside the core. Upper Canada Mall, in Newmarket is the premiere destination for fashion north of the GTA. With more than 200 stores including, Michael Kors, Forever XXI, Target, Aritzia, Sephora, Coach, Browns, Hudson’s Bay and more to be announced in 2013 – it’s easy to see why!

Upper Canada Mall

Upper Canada Mall has really evolved over the past few years. In addition to providing a fabulous shopping experience, they’ve taken great strides to engage shoppers online as well as enhance customer service through social media. The Gorgeous campaign launched in Fall 2012 including a beautiful semi-annual fashion magazine (print and digital), a style blog and rich multimedia content, featuring fashion videos and interviews with celebs like Brad Smith of the Bachelor Canada. Their latest project is not only gorgeous and unique, but it’s generous too!

Soapwalla Natural Deodorant Cream

soapwalla_logoI usually take a week or so to test a product before I’ll write about it on my blog, but in this particular case, I love it so much I simply have to share it NOW!

I’ve been looking for an effective natural deodorant for years, but between the organic brands at the drug store and local independent formulas, my hopes were dashed more than once.

Natural deodorants employ oils, waxes and powders which can often result in a sticky, chalky or residual mess. Sadly, no matter how pretty it smells in the tube, I just haven’t found a natural deodorant that keeps me as fresh as those toxic drug store brands.

Until I found Soapwalla Deodorant Cream
