When it comes to beauty, our eyes are a major focus. But something that we might not consider when we’re applying our mascara or lying on the treatment bed waiting for our lash lift to set is the health of our eyes and what impact primping and prettying them could have long-term. So, today we're bringing in an expert who knows both sides of the story – Dr. Alexa Hecht, a Toronto-based optometrist who's also super knowledgeable about beauty.
Plus, a hair routine to combat hair loss and promote hair growth, why we all should be wearing shower caps and of course our beauty MVPs - a “healthier” dry shampoo and a nourishing pre-wash scalp oil.
