Welcome to FaceTime, a series where we interrogate the beauty habits, toothy tips and self-care views of cool girls around the world. First up we have Gabby Dubois, the green beauty herself who talks skincare must haves and the best place for a smashing eggs benny!
What did you have for breakfast this morning?
The biggest egg benny breakfast from the cutest breakfast dine-in called Homeway in Toronto that’s been around for 50+ years.
What are confidence deal breakers for you? When do you feel your best?
I feel my best when my skin is glowing and clear. I feel the need to wear less makeup and flaunt my skin - au natural.
#SELFCARE: A millennial buzzword or something you practice with sincerity? What does selfcare look like for you?
I’m a huge fan of selfcare. A skincare routine is heavily incorporated into my selfcare routine.
Tell us a little about your current oral care routine?
My current oral care routine is pretty basic. In the morning I will use my copper tongue scraper, something I started to do a bit more recently since reading more about Ayurvedic medicine. I follow up that with my Keeko floss and then brushing my teeth using my David’s Toothpaste.
I’ll also throw in the Keeko Oil Pulling which has been such a great way to naturally whiten my teeth without the sensitivity.
Have you ever bought an item because of its aesthetic appeal rather than its efficacy?
Absolutely! And I feel bad for saying that.
You must get to try a lot of products! What are your recent faves?
So many! A lot of the products I use and love are beauty and wellness products.

Agent Nateur Holi(water) is the best mix of Hyaluronic Acid, pearl and rose water making it super lightweight and Hydrating mixed with the Holi(c) vitamin C powder.
Osea Malibu Cleansing Mudd: it has the most amazing cooling sensation that totally invigorating.
Dr. Roebuck’s Ningaloo Firming Serum: is this beautiful blue serum that’s super lightweight and only contains 6 ingredients.
Now be honest, how often do you floss?
I try to floss more now, but I often overlook it. My Keeko floss has definitely been a motivating factor because of how cute it is. But frequently when there’s something in my teeth, and a few weeks before my next scheduled dentist appointment.
