Most of the articles I see on SAD are well into the winter season but it's easier to prevent SAD before it happens. Some symptoms of SAD include the following: increased carbohydrate cravings, weight gain, fatigue, feeling overwhelmed and in some extreme cases, feeling depressed. Sad Depressed Dog Pug

DAVIDsTEA Back From The Dead Review

Every year around Halloween, DAVIDsTEA brings back seasonal teas that were well loved but discontinued "back from the dead". The Back from the Dead coffin set contains 3 teas including Maple Sugar, Stormy Night and Swamp Water. Only 2 of these teas are available separately so to get the third flavour, you have to get the coffin set. Act now since this is a limited edition set and once they're gone, these flavours might not be back next year! maple sugar davidstea review, organic stormy night davidstea review, swampwater davidstea review

Prettyful Hair & Makeup Lash Lift Review

Ever heard of a lash lift? The average person has probably not heard about a lash lift but has heard of its more glamorous cousin: the lash extension. Lash lifts are nice because they don't require as much maintenance as eyelash extensions and are a wonderful alternative if you're looking for something to quicken up your morning routine! Marianne from Prettyful Hair & Makeup was kind enough to contact me and try out a lashlift service. (Regular rates here) Having never gotten one before and only hearing about it once, I went to do a bit of research on what it is and what the results looked like. I was glad that it looked natural and was able to last around 6-8 weeks if taken care of. For my current low maintenance lifestyle, it was perfect for me.

LUSH Cosmetics No Drought Dry Shampoo Review

Every once in a while, we all get a little bit busy and have to get ready on a tight schedule. For days like those, dry shampoo is a lifesaver! LUSH Cosmetics is a great cruelty-free cosmetic reatailer that was founded in the United Kingdom. They feature a variety of natural hair and beauty products from creams, shampoos, masks, shower gels, bath bombs... the list goes on! LUSH products are 100% vegetarian with a few products being vegan as well.
