24-hrs of R&R in Gatineau: Nordik Spa, Biscotti & Cie and The Wakefield Mill
I couldn’t find research to back this next statement, but sometimes I feel like tourists know more than locals when it comes to hotspots in a city. I mean, locals know where the everyday essentials are, but they don’t always go the extra mile, they tend not to explore close to home and don’t necessarily splurge on staycations. But if you factor in the cost of travel, you may be ahead if you just stay close to home and treat yourself! And if you’re too busy to get away for an entire weekend, consider what you can do in just 24 hours. Katie Hession (Yow City Style) and I were up for the challenge when Outaouais Tourism put together a decadent stay for us to experience 24-hours of R&R in Gatineau: Nordik Spa, Biscotti & Cie and The Wakefield Mill were on the agenda!

Apparently, I recently came out of this rock when I had the chance to test out a few products that were sent to me from Benefit. In this comprehensive Benefit Cosmetics product review, I will be sharing what I love most about all the different eyebrow makeup and how to embrace the natural bushy brow look.
