Daneka’s 8, Wouldn’t Want to Live Without, Beauty Products

By

From skincare to haircare all the way to armpit care (that’s right), follow along as I share with you a lineup of my favourite beauty products sourced near and wide! Being in the beauty industry means I also like to learn about the beauty industry. This compilation of products were hacks I have picked up along the way from friends who look for the same thing in products that I do. So decide what matters to YOU because you as the consumer always have a choice!

1. Clean Up, from K’Pure

This is a dead sea mud masque that I use a few times a month to clear and restore pores on my face and armpits. YES you heard right. This is the best way, I have found, to detox your underarm for transitioning to natural deodorants.

The Clean Up Dead Sea Masque – $32 from K’Pure.

There is also this mask detox we love from Midnight Paloma:


2. Peaceful Warrior Deodorant from Saje Wellness

Switching to natural can be tough, and definitely found it took patience through the adjustment period. I’ve tried all 3 of Sajes’ crystal fresh deodorant varieties. 


Natural Deodorants – $10 to $12 from Saje


3. Siren Waves Elasto-Cream from L’Oreal Professional

Used on towel dried hair, siren waves is my fav product for air-drying. This leave in cream keeps my natural waves and curls shiny and soft.

HOT TIP: Use this after your hair is styled to separate curls and leave your hair so shiny!! 


4. Keep Me Golden, from SunnaTan (Organic Tan Kelowna)

UHH this is the best kept secret for evening out my skin tone, giving me that golden glow year round that I love so much. To apply, I spray this fine mist on my face, neck, and shoulders, and buff out with a makeup brush.


Keep Me Golden Spray Tan – $45 from SunnaTan


5. Serum Therapiste, from Kérastase

This is the ultimate serum for hair repair. It’s a cuticle smoother, protector, and split end preventer. I use this on my damp hair to prep it for blow drying, and thereafter on my ends when it’s dry. 


6. Good Genes, from Sunday Riley

Packed full of lactic acid, this potent skin treatment does not mess around. I use Good Genes as spot treatment to shrink acne overnight, to speed up the turnover of cells, and to reduce fine lines. Leave your skin feeling like a baby’s bottom. Worth every penny. 


Good Genes & CEO Glow Kit – $96 from Sunday Riley


7. Color Lustre Shampoo, from Shu Uemura

I love the smell, I love the lather, I love the end result. It’s sulphate free, balances out the scalp, and has musk rose oil. What more could you want! Sulphate free means it is great for ALL hair types including EXTENSIONS! The musk rose oil formula protects even the most challenging colours and prevents fading! 


8. Lip Sleeping Mask, from Laneige

Love the supple-velvet texture of this lip balm. 

HOT TIP: Don’t just use at night – carry it around in your purse and use all day long!


Lip Sleeping Mask – $26 from Laneige

Stylist

I am okanagan raised, in my mid twenties, enjoying life’s adventures. My work fulfills my love of working in a team, serving others, in a creative and challenging way. Both fitness (spin, bootcamp, barre, yoga), and getting into nature, fuel my soul. When I’m not creating, collaborating, or educating myself OR clients, you can find me hanging with my dog, cooking up a storm, exploring the world, participating in community events, or laughing with family and friends. Balance is my mantra, and I love trying new things ✌🏽
