It always makes me feel great to use products that contain more natural ingredients than the rest. Fresh is all about using nature’s gifts in all of their products – what a great philosophy!

Fresh’s Supernova ultra-conditioning mascara contains natural ingredients like meadowfoam seed oil and linden bud extract which nourishes and fortifies lashes. What’s even better is that it doesn’t contain alcohol, sulfate, synthetic dyes, synthetic fragrances or phthalates.

Application is a breeze, and it holds true to its claim that it defines, thickens, lengthens, and curls in one coat. However, applying another coat creates a more dramatic look if that’s what you’re trying to achieve.

The curved brush is very effective at coating and separating lashes, and preventing clumping. Removal is super easy with soap and water, which is always a plus.

The only issue I had with this mascara is that it tended to smudge slightly throughout the day on my upper and lower eyelid. Overall, I was pretty impressed with this product having used the same mascara for years.

Fresh’s Supernova mascara only comes in black, and retails for $25 at Sephora. 

Have you tried this mascara? Love it? Hate it? Want it?

This Valentine's Day the perfect gift won't be hard to find because it's right under your nose - literally. Primp and prep those lips for some all night smooching! It's the best gift your special Valentine will ever get!

Step 1: Exfoliate and moisturize your lips to get rid of nasty dry, chapped skin. Fresh Sugar Lip Treatment SPF 15 ($22.50 USD) contains real sugar and is great for smoothing out the lips while providing moisture and sun protection. The downside is that it runs out quickly if you use it on a daily basis as a balm. My tip is to use it as a lip treatment once in a while when your lips are at its most un-kissable!

Step 2: Keep those smackers soft and supple daily with a good ol' lip balm. I'm a huge fan of Kiehl's Lip Balm #1 and now in time for Valentine's, Scented Lip Balm Trio ($25.50 USD) in Coconut, Vanilla, and Mango (love all 3 scents)! A little goes a long way so one little tube should last you a while. Plus, you get sun protection and some shine for a glossy feel!

Step 3: Priming your lips will enhance the performance of your favourite lippy. Benefit Lip Plump ($22 USD) is such a great primer. Relaunched with a whole new look, this creamy neutral-toned primer fills in lines and builds up the contour of your lips while helping your lipstick or gloss stay on longer! Less is more with this product - place 2 dots on top and bottom lip and blend or pat with your finger. Wait a few seconds before it dries to apply your lip product. Women who who have naturally pink or red lips will love how well this neutralizes!
