Parissa Wax Strips Review

Thank you to Parissa! Parissa is personally my favourite way to remove unwanted hair. My daughter and I use these wax strips and we love them! The wax strips do a great job of removing hair and the after oil hydrates and softens my skin. These are Easy to use and fast as well. I love that they are “Sourced naturally, ethically, and with care.” Their “ingredients are safe, gentle and from natural, sustainable sources like tree resin, cane sugar, beeswax, vegetable oils and plant extracts."

“At Parissa we manufacture, package and ship our products from our award-winning eco-facility in North Vancouver. All Parissa products and packaging components are made from sustainable, ethically sourced, natural materials. We care about the environment and we care about what you put on your body - say no to synthetic waxes”

Gentle on the skin and they don’t irritate my skin. They are terrific! Love them and recommend them. Thank you to Parissa for sending me these lovely samples. So grateful! 

 

“Azar Moayeri, the founder of Parissa, was the first female Chemical Engineer to graduate from the University of Edinburgh. Continuing her success in the male-dominated business world, Azar relocated to Vancouver with her family in 1981 and started Canada’s first all-natural hair removal brand. At Parissa we manufacture, package and ship our products from our award-winning eco-facility in North Vancouver. All Parissa products and packaging components are made from sustainable, ethically sourced, natural materials. We care about the environment and we care about what you put on your body - say no to synthetic waxes!”

Thank you so much!

Vlogtober Week 2 🎃

Hello lovey friends! Here is my vlog. I hope you enjoy it and sending you all my positivity and love. 

Saying goodbye...

Saying goodbye to October will be bitter sweet. I love October and everything about Autumn. The colours all around me are so beautiful! Orange, yellow,  red and brown. Golden hues everywhere. It’s so beautiful in PEI in the fall. So breathtaking. I took some pictures on the confederation trail. Heaven on Earth!

We are settling nicely in PEI. Love the town we live in. Love the people and nature all around. We are slowly unboxing and putting our items away. What I find challenging is that there are not that many box stores here. We have a couple of grocery stores and a a couple of pharmacies which is good. But if we need a Walmart or Superstore we have to drive 40 min to the closest town. It doesn't bother me though. You can get things delivered which is good. Also internet is a problem until today! we finally got internet. I find everything is more expensive here as well, or maybe that's inflation everywhere. 

We had a lovely thanksgiving dinner. I made roast chicken, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, sweet potatoes with brown sugar and marshmallows, carrots and butternut squash soup with bacon bits and onion crisps on top. It made me happy to see my family finish everything on their plates. A blessing and I’m so grateful. 

Because of our move I wasn’t able to create content as much as I wanted to this month, but I need to take it easy on my self and not put so much pressure on always creating. I use to really push my self to create a post everyday in October and video content as well. But a good friend of mine (Ramona) once told me that it’s quality not quantity that matters. I truly agree. 

I’ve met my new oncologist and she is very kind. She said that she’s going to do a few tests to make sure that my estrogen levels haven’t risen and also a bone density test. I will be seeing her in the New Year. 

For the last week of October I plan to bake a little and make some of my family’s favourite treats. I always make candy apples, caramel popcorn and cupcakes. I am going to make some crispy treats and jello cups too. 

I am a little scared of winter coming because I’ve been told by many people how harsh the winters are in PEI. So I’m a little scared. I will keep you posted if I can because bad weather means no internet connection for me. We just have to take it one day at a time.

I finally have internet like I said before and I was able to upload vlogtober week 1. Have a look if you like. I captured a little of Fiona. Thank you all for your wonderful support and love. I appreciate all your comments on all my platforms. Thank you kindly. 

Thank you and I will be uploading vlogtober week 2 this weekend. Thanks again!

Positivity, love and kindness to you all!

Focus on Joy and Love

The storm was crazy, I never in my life heard wind like Fiona before. Fiona felt like a monster trying to get you and it lasted endless hours. At 2 in the morning we all woke up and sat in the living room. New home, new place and it was frightening. Power went out and trees came down and after 13 hours or more the storm slowly stopped. Fiona scared me to the core. 

Autumn weather has settled all around us now. The clean-up around our town is almost complete. The evidence of Fiona coming through the area slowly diminishing. 

The sun rises beautifully, gold hues touch all the leaves and burnt orange and yellow surrounds us. The fields softly touched by morning fog disappear by the warmth of the sun. 

Being in a new place feels vulnerable, I still feel emotional, it’s only been one month. The beauty of my surroundings helps my emotions and offers me comfort and joy. The beauty of PEI embraces me and offers love. 

I don’t know how long this adventure will last but I know that I am going to live in the moment and appreciate everything around me. I am going to look toward the brightness of the sun and not the shadows. Focus on joy and love. 

I have set up an art area and slowly I will set up my books as well. I forced my self to sit down and make some art but I just sat there not knowing where to start. Feeling lost a bit so I’m just going to take in my surroundings and breathe a bit before creating anything. It takes time…

Thank you for reading my blogpost for today my friends,

All love and positivity,

Maria
