Oresta Mindful Beauty

We all grew up loving and listening to Dolly Parton. We’re so saddened by her death.❤️

Let’s play tribute to her by becoming a little more Dolly - more fun-loving, more silly, more kind, more sparkly, more generous and not take ourselves so seriously.

Let’s be a little more Dolly. The world needs it. ❤️

A customer was in the shop and mid-explanation about why her skin shouldn’t tingle or feel tight and squeaky-clean after toning, I said:

“Alcohol belongs in your cocktail, not in your toner.”

We were all in hysterics but…I stand by it.

The right toner (aka hydrosol, hydrating mist):
- hydrates, not dehydrates
- plumps and softens, never tightens
- allows serums and moisturizers to better pe*****te into the skin

If your toner leaves your skin tight, it’s not “working”.

As for the beautiful cocktail, it’s an ‘Angelina Greyhound’ that we enjoyed at the Garden Party in support of the Ottawa Hospital. Absolutely delicious!!!

The older we get, the more we appreciate that it’s chic to:

Surround yourself with women who support and uplift one another. Stay curious. Have fun. Try new things. Prioritize yourself. And always wear your SPF!
