June Beauty Closet
1. Benefit Lemon Aid, $26 Colour correcting primer for your eyelids. Helps shadow go on even or wear it alone for a clean, uniform look.
2. David Babaii for WildAid Blow Dryer, $119.95
Hair dries faster but without going overboard (so no frizz or disasters). It’s extremely light which makes it easier on the arms and great for traveling.
The line is available at The Shopping Channel across Canada
3. Dove Go Fresh Shampoo & conditioner in Burst, $5.79 each
An energizing new scent from Dove that smells like a vibrant summer day. I like to spritz a small amount of the matching body mist on my hair to keep the scent longer.
4. Marvis Whitening Mint Toothpaste, $7
This concentrated whitening toothpaste is refreshing and works to brighten you smile.

5. Avon Nailwear Pro Nail Enamel in Sunshine, $5.99
Yellow is a tough colour to pull off, not everyone can do it. But if you’re feeling adventurous, paint on some canary nails to make a summer outfit pop!

Heatherette and MAC: A Beautiful Team
One look at our best fashionista friend’s makeup bag and we were seeing green. Mint green, to be exact.
