eOS Organic Smooth lip balm in Sweet Mint left me feeling underwhelmed. I received this free alongside the Strawberry Sorbet and for whatever reason, I found that the Sweet Mint felt more waxy on my lips and I found myself having to reapply often. When I ceased use/forgot to reapply, my lips felt drier than normal. My decision to repurchase this exact scent is a tough one as I may have just received a bad batch-I would much rather stick to repurchasing the Strawberry Sorbet as this point. -

I was super excited to try the new Eos evolution of smooth organic lip balms because I hadn't had the best of luck with the original formula in the past. This new organic formula has some changes that made me fall in love with the product . The Strawberry Sorbet has a slight strawberry scent that isn't overpowering. The waxy feel that I noticed with the previous formula is gone and my lips always feel extremely soft after application. I will definitely be purchasing this again when it runs out. -

THESE WERE SO DELICIOUS. Filled every sweet tooth craving I got (more often than I'd like to admit), without being cloyingly sweet and artificial tasting. My favourite part was the real blueberries and whole oats that were visible inside the bar. It felt like you were eating a freshly baked good as opposed to something purchased from a grocery store. To me, that makes me feel better about ingesting it into my body. I reached for these prior to a morning workout or during the middle of the day where I tend to crave sugar. it kept me satisfied and full without making me feel guilty for not snacking on fruits or vegetables ;)
My family and I loved them so much we finished them before I could get a decent picture.

As a lover of all that taste similar to Banana Bread, I was looking forward to trying this flavour the most. Unfortunately for me, are various runs to different grocery store locations, I simply could not locate this flavour anywhere. I settled for the Walnut and Grains with the added hint of maple syrup, however, the taste just didn't sit right with my palette. I love walnuts and maple syrup separately, but combined, I couldn't care less for the flavour. What I will say is that, although the flavour wasn't up my alley, you could still sense the great quality of ingredients that went into the making of the product. The maple syrup tastes like PURE maple syrup, and the walnuts were decently sized and still maintained their crunch. The bar tasted as if it was freshly made in the morning! And that is always a great sign. -

I have a love/hate relationship with this mascara. Some days I love it-most days I do not. The product itself achieves what it has claimed to do; that is lengthen your lashes for a false lash effect. However, i find that there are better mascaras on the market that do the exact same, without such a PAINFUL wand. I've poked myself in the tight-line fleshy part of my eye more times than I'd like to admit and for me it's not worth it to keep using a product that requires me to put on mascara so meticulously. I find that the Benefit They're Real mascara archives the same look (plus a nice curl) without the pain. -

One of my holy grail foundations and I haven't even been using it for a full year! It truly is full-coverage and a little bit goes a long way. i find myself using less concealer (if any), when using this foundation. Since I'm naturally oily, I always set the makeup with a powder so I can't speak on behalf of it's lasting power when worn alone. My one qualm with this product is the application method: it comes in a glass bottle with a large doe-foot applicator. It provides for a sometime messy application as the wand picks up too much product which tends to get all over the neck of the bottle. I would much rather prefer a pump bottle instead! -

I have a seasonal love-hate relationship with my MIA 2. I have combination skin that is also acne-prone and very sensitive. I find that during the winter this product dries out my skin too much for my liking (even after using it with a variety of skin cleaners), however during the summer, I cannot live without this tool. I never truly feel like my skin is rid of all the impurities until I use this to wash my face every night! -
Ralph Lauren Ralph Perfume
This is my go-to during the day because it's light, fresh and smells like you just got out of the shower-even after the gym ;) It's ideal for those who working in environments with strict perfume allergy restrictions.

Maybelline New York The Falsies Volum' Express Mascara
One of my absolute favourite drugstore mascaras! The only downside is I find it dries up rather quickly however I am able to look past this as I often tend to purchase it whilst on sale!

I gave this product a try after hearing so many raving reviews about it, unfortunately for my skin type it did not bare well. I'm combination with extremely sensitive skin and this product instantly made my skin tingle in the most unpleasant way upon application. I toughed through it during my initial try just to see how it wore throughout the day, and I will say for someone looking for a light-medium drugstore foundation it was't too bad. I found I started to get oily in about 2 hrs even with powder to set. Although I would never buy it again, I say give it a try! -
