My Beautycounter Must Haves:

I will always be honest about the things I sell and there are definitely some Beautycounter products that I don’t love enough to recommend to others (the deodorant seriously doesn’t work well for me!).

me and my favourite sunscreen ♡

That being said, I am SO passionate about these 5 products that I love sharing them with others!

  • Countersun Daily Sheer Defense for Face SPF 25 – I wear sunscreen on my face every day and love that this one feels like a gentle moisturizer. It’s non-nano zinc protection and is light enough to wear and reapply throughout the day (if needed).
  • Reflect Effect Overnight Resurfacing Peel – this is a product that most people fall in love with from the first time they use it. I don’t love the smell but the results in the morning are worth it. I apply 1-2 pumps right after cleansing at night (2-3x a week max) and follow with moisturizer. I wake up with glowy, brighter and softer skin ♡
  • Think Big All-in-one Mascara – this mascara has nourishing peptides and plant waxes to protect lashes and creates dramatic length – it makes my eyes pop without any other eye makeup (*note, I do use Latisse, but this mascara takes it to the next level!)
  • Skin Twin Creamy Concealer – This, plus the mascara and the cheeky cream blush are my go-to makeup items on busy mornings. This concealer, in 3 dots under each eye, hides my poor sleep beautifully (I use Fair 2)! It has avocado oil and is very soft and long-lasting.
  • Countermatch Recovery Sleeping Cream – While I adore the Countertime line, this sleeping cream is my favourite moisturizer. It’s so gentle for when my skin is sensitive (after adventures with retinol) and I’m obsessed with the pump that delivers the perfect amount of moisture. To me it smells softly of almond, but it includes shea butter and plum oil.

Honourable mention goes to the Countercontrol Clear Pore Cleanser that my niece and my daughter love to use! Curious about other Beautycounter products? I have many more LOVES (and a few passes…) – just get in touch with me and I’m happy to chat. Remember that

About Me

I’m Justine, the creator of this blog and a full-time academic librarian, with a passion for fitness.

I believe that everyone deserves to feel valued and strong in their own body. My love of movement started in ballet, where I learned that strength and grace aren’t opposites — and my life as a busy, working mom of three taught me that self-care has to be realistic to matter. I bring both of those things into every class: grace, positivity, and the belief that you are worthy of feeling good.
