A Dose of Sammy Huynh
Introducing this month's "A Dose of...", where we feature beauty enthusiasts on how they seek pleasure and build their own pleasure ritual.
For the month of November on "A Dose of..." we asked Sammy Huynh about her daily routine, her top local spots in Toronto and her definition of self-care.
