Review/Giveaway: Rowenta's Inifini Pro Auto Sensor Dryer

Blow drying my hair these days is a luxury that I consider ME time. It doesnt happen often but when it does I need tools that are going to make my life easier and get the job done fast.

Enter Rowenta's Infini Pro Auto Sensor Dryer voted best hairdryer in the Globe and Mail Style Awards!

Rowenta is the official sponsor hair tools sponsor of World MasterCard Fashion Week here in Toronto and I can see why with its innovative tools!

 

This baby has most certainly replaced my old clunky hair dryer that would kill my arms by the end of blow drying my long hair because it was so heavy. Gone are the days when I fumble around trying not to get the brush tangled in my mane while attempting to turn on and off the blow dryer between each section.

This hairdryer features an auto sensor switch that when in the on position allows the dryer to automatically stop when placed on any flat surface. Genius I know!

It comes with all the necessary attachments to keep any mane looking sleek and styled. A diffuser and a concentrated nozzle (my personal fav) that twist on easily and STAY on unlike my "other" dryer where the nozzle pops off every 5 minutes!

I am over the moon that this hair tool came into my life and I'm even more excited to announce that I am able to give away TWO amazing Rowenta tools!

Canadian's WIN your very own Rowenta Infini Pro Auto Sensor Hair Dryer PLUS the Rowenta Beauty Versa

Total value of $450.00

Giveaway: Win A Limited Edition Clarisonic Plus System Worth $259! Canada Only

Clarisonic systems have made a big name for themselves in the last few years gaining popularity for their innovative stylish design, deep classing abilities, quality and ease of use.

If you're any sort of beauty junkie or Skincare lover you either own one or are lusting after one. They don't come cheap but having owned one for some time now I can tell you they are worth every penny.

A few years ago I had mentioned to my BFF that the Clarisonic Mia was on my beauty wish list. Along came my birthday and there it was, all wrapped up! I was thrilled and have been using it religiously every since.

Then a few weeks ago I got a knock at the door and standing before me was a really pretty boy, one of my fav PR girls and a white and orange bag marked Clarisonic. As I stood there in my new mom ensemble (sweatpants and ponytail) holding my 3 week old embarrassed to be seen a smile came over my face because I knew what was in that bag.

It was the Clarisonic Plus skin Cleansing for face and body system. The limited edition Holiday set which was sold exclusively at Sephora and included the Clarisonic PLUS floral design, Sensitive Brush Head, Deep Pore Brush Head, Delicate Brush Head, Body Brush Head, mini Biotherm Lait de Gommage Gentle Exfoliating Milk & mini Biotherm Biosource Hydra-Mineral Cleanser.

Heres how it looks in comparison to my beloved Mia.

I love the fact that now I have a body brush for those extra tough spots like elbows, knees and feet! Why not give yourself an at home pedicure right?!

Well here is your chance to take that Clarisonic off your wish list Canadians!

WIN a Clarisonic Plus skin Cleansing for Face and Body system worth $259!!

Our Big Date Night at South St Burger! Plus Win a $20 Gift Card!

With only a few weeks till we are a family of 3 my husband and I have been spending extra time together which I love.  From going to see a movie (btw ARGO is an amazing movie) to just heading out for a burger we try to make every moment special.

With some South St Bucks in hand thanks to a very kind PR gal we headed to our local SSB to pick up dinner.

From the moment we walked in we knew this wasn't just a regular fast food burger place. The decor was modern and clean and they had even placed mini pumpkins on each table for decor which I thought was so cute.

When we went to order I noticed they had options I hadn't seen before at other burger places such as whole wheat and gluten free buns which impressed me right away since Ive been staying away from white breads. We placed our orders and walked over to the section where they assemble the meals, check out all the options!

Wasabi mayo, guacamole, Dijon horseradish, goat cheese, mango chutney... the possibilities are endless!

We got our meals to go so we could have a burger and movie night in :)

It was so yummy Ive been tempted to go back ever since ;) New York Fries will always have a place in my heart especially with that yummy Cajun spice topping!!

Ok now that Ive given you burger envy how about I offer all my Canadian readers a chance to WIN an amazing Gift Certificate to either South St Burger or New York Fries?!!!

Giveaway: Win 3 Full Sized New KORRES Products!

To me KORRES simple equals quality products.

I am always testing out new products and find myself especially excited whenever a new item from KORRES arrives because I know it will be something innovative and great for my skin.

First I'm loving KORRES new Pomegranate Purifying Natural Clay Mask ($35.50) because from the moment I applied it just felt right if that makes sense at all! It smoothed right on and while it was moist it didn't drip so the application wasn't messy key in a face mask! The smell was pomegranate unbelievable and although it didn't take the full 10 minutes (recommended mask time) to dry it didn't dry super quick either which allowed my face to stay soft and not feel too tight.

The mask is made up of natural clay which has sebum-absorbing capacity that removes impurities and allows the skin to get a nice deep clean. Its suggested for those with oily to normal skin types. Once I washed it off my skin felt soft but since you always need to follow a mask with a lotion which is where KORRES Wild Rose + Vitamin C Advanced Brightening Sleeping Facial ($62.50) came in.

First of all, tell me the "sleeping facial" part doesn't have you intrigued.. I know I was lured in by these words. Its non-greasy and absorbs quick, has a very pleasant rose scent which if you know me you will know rose scents get me every time! The product also includes a natural source of vitamin C to address visible signs of premature aging caused by sun and environment exposure which I thought was great since it works for all skin types so everyone can benefit from these properties.

My last step before I apply my makeup in the morning is KORRES Pomegranate Mattifying Treatment ($49) which is advised for oily to normal skin. This product can be used on its own or applied under makeup as it not only mattifies but is long-lasting and helps to refine your pores. As with the other products mentioned its dermalogically tested and this product is free of parabens, mineral oils and silicone which I know a lot of you are looking for.

I happen to love all 3 of these new products from KORRES and I'm very happy to report that I have yet to be let down by this brand.

Want to try out the 3 items Ive listed above?

Enter for your chance to WIN KORRES Pomegranate Purifying Natural Clay Mask, Wild Rose + Vitamin C Advanced Brightening Sleeping Facial  & Pomegranate Mattifying Treatment worth OVER $140!

I Got My Wave On With Conair's New You Wave Ultra! Plus Win A Conair Gift Basket!

Conair has a new styler in town called the You Wave Ultra for girls who like to have a little fun!

The Claim: 
Soft beachy waves are an easy way to create a bit of volume. The Conair® You Wave Ultra™ helps create long-lasting waves quickly and easily.

Features:

•  Unique three-barrel ceramic styler
• Creates long-lasting, soft waves
• Tourmaline Ceramic technology prevents hot spots, reduces frizz and helps eliminate static
• 30-second instant heat
• Professional high heat
• LED indicator 
• Auto off
• 6’ professional swivel cord
• Limited five-year warranty 

Even though I'm not generally a fan of crimpers and wavers I wanted to see if this one lived up to the claims so I went for it. The end result didn't leave me feeling like I had just left the beach however it was really easy and pretty fast. I have long, somewhat thick hair and it took me about 25-30 mins to wave my entire head!

I loved the volume and thickness it left in my hair and can totally see me and my girls using this at the crown of our hair under a layer to add volume there. I also really liked the way it left my hair feeling, soft and well... kinda cool!

Here are my results shown with the Elle Gold Flower headband featured here. (excuse the stunned look in these pics)

I'm all about having styling tools on hand that can change up a look in a second (or 25 mins) so the You Wave Ultra will make a nice addition to my "tools" drawer for the times when I'm feeling a bit funky!

Ive teamed up with the folks at Conair to make sure one of my readers gets a chance to win.....

Prize: A Conair basket filled with an assortment of Scunci & Conair hair accessories some of which I featured a few days ago as well as your very own You Wave Ultra PLUS an amazing Conair Infiniti 1875 Watt Salon-Performance AC Motor Dryer PLUS a EyePop Hard Makeup Case!!!

A Value of $145!!
