I have not gone to the Toronto location but I do shop at the St.Catharines location in the Pen Centre. I have always had a really hard time finding products and cosmetics to suit my skin. I have very sensitive skin, rosasea included. Most cosmetics out there I have not been completely happy with their coverage etc. I decided to try Caryl Baker Visage on the recommendation of my friend and have never been happier. I barely ever have to reapply throughout the day. My redness from my rosasea is alway covered and I feel confident that it blends and smooths out my complexion. Since I was so happy with their Cosmetics I decided to try the skin care line and have also been thoroughly happy with it. I use their Papaya wash in the foam, ginseng toaner, d-red serum and moisturizer. I have never been happier with my skin and continue to get compliments on how my complexion has improved. The ladies at the store are always helpful and sat down with me and did a full skin analysis before i purchased anything. I find the Membership for anyone who will continue to purchase their products a great buy as you are always the first to hear of promotions and get discounts with every purchase. I would strongly recommended this to any of my friends and family... and have infact! -

I used this product for quite a few years and really loved it. It was only recently that i switched to another brand. I am not sure whether it was the circumstances of my new job (serving in a restaurant) or the change in formula from the company, but i found my skin was not reacting well with it. This is the only reason i changed.
Like i said i used it for years and loved it. I bought all purminerals products and only purminerals products. I would still recommend this and all other purminerals products to anyone. It just stoped working for my skin type. The price is average for a higher end and good quality make up. Now that they have moved into shoppers drug marts beauty departments it is much easier than it used to be to find the products. (When i first started buying it, they were only online and in the U.S)
I also am someone with rosasea and found this product very gentle on my skin and covered most of my redness. It is a great product for those with sensitive skin.

I received this product through the product review club. So thank you for the opportunity to try it. I have tried a couple other brands whitening strips in the past and for the final outcome this was the best! My teeth were much whiter after use. The were comfortable to wear, and did not have a bad taste like most do. I clicked you betcha...but im not sure it was a hands decision. If there was an in betweeb that would have been my choice. My reasoning being that after roughly 30mins after treatment and i have removed the strips my teeth were VERY painful. The pain kept me up throught the night and really did not subside until around lunch time the next day. I know this isnt the case for just this product, it is a side effect for most white strips but in anycase i had it.
As a white strip they work really well. And. For this i would recommend them for sure. But if you tend to have sensitive teeth i wouldnt recommend them.
Thank again for giving me the opportunity to try them

I liked this product however was somewhat dissapointed as well. When i saw that it was from febreze i had high hopes for it as i really like febreze products. I do not believe it lived up to its name. The linen and Sky scent is a nice scent but i had to leave it on high just to have the scent ;last throughout my whole car. Because of this it really only lasted about 2 weeks instead of the advertised 30days. I did however really like the size of the product. Most car freshners like this one made by other companies are big and bulky and kind of an eyesore. For this reason i will probably buy again, but its not somehting i will go running to the store to purchase.

I wish there was an in between answer for would you recommend this product.. My answer isnt really you betcha.. but its isnt forget about it either...:)
I have been trying the masque for a couple of weeks and have liked it.. not loved it.
I found it really annoying to have to apply it to towel dried hair like the instructions tell you to do. i did that the first few times and gave it up and started just applying it in the shower after shampooing. I used this product along with the intense repair shampoo as well. As i said with the shampoo i found this product made my already thick full hair feel heavier and somewhat greasy. I did find that it was a great conditioner and smelled great however that smell did not last beyond drying my hair.
Another draw back to this product was the design of the bottle. The product is not a really think consistancy and therefore could have been put into a squeeze bottle making it more managemable in the shower. It was a little awkward to use.
As a regular use product i dont think i would recommend it as it is very expensive for something i was not completly satisfied with. I do think however that i would like this product as a couple times a year use when i find my hair getting dry. the deep intense moisturizer did work well so for that reason i would probably use this again. It is rather expensive however
Thank you for the opportunity to try this product.

I have been trying this product for a couple weeks now and have liked it. The first thing about it that i noticed was the great smell. Very fresh and tropical. That being said i was dissapointed in the fact that the scent disapeared very quickly after drying my hair.
I found my hair very moisturized, especially when used with the mask. My olnly complaint being that since i have a lot of hair i usually try and find shampoos that do not add to the thrickness/fullness of my hair. I found after using this product along with the mask that my hair was almost too full and therefore heavy. My roomate uses this product on a regular basis already and she has thin hair, so for her this is perfect. I know she would recommened this product to anyone especially those with her hair type. I however do not feel that for the price i was completly happy with the result. Not a bad product. Just not something for me. As it is considered a professional product it is rather pricy for a rather small bottle. Many other professional shampoos come at almost if not double the size for alot less price.
Thank you to the product review club for allowing me to sample and review this product. It is a product that i have been wanting and meaning to try.

Huggies Swimmers are the summer staple to any diaper bag. Whether it's a puddle or a pool, my little guys love getting wet. Huggies swimmers go on as easy as a pair of underwear and come off just like a diaper. I tear the sides after usage, that way like with a diaper I am prepared for any after swim surprise.They were very absorbent and didn't weigh my boys down while they were having fun getting wet. Best of all, I don't have to waste money on bathing suits. The Swimmers come in all their favourite colourful characters. I will definetly recommend them to friends and family.
Great Product by Huggies.

I received 3 flavours of this product from the product review club. So thank you!!
I really enjoyed this product. I found all the flavours VERY flavourful. My favorite was the blue and black berry flavour. They were so tasty it was like dinking juice.. but without all the calories!
I took this product to work for a couple of days and it sat out on my desk all day. I sipped it throughout the day and it never lost its flavour when warm like some juices. My only complaint.. and its not really a complaint because really it isnt bad.. but the consistancy of the water did not remind me of water. I found the water to be thicker than what i consider water. I was expecting water with some flavour like the name says. But all in all i really liked this product and will drink it again. I would also recommend it to anyone!

Received this from the Product review Club the other day and plugged it in right away! First of all it was very easy to install and Very quickly after plugging it in it started to freshen the room. My only complaint really is that it is kind of large. But overall i found it to be a really good product. I like how it alternates between two scents (it even lights up to show you which one is working at the time) I have a smaller apartment so it was nice to have to two settings for room size.
I found the scnets to be nice and refreshing,they did not overpower the room. Also they did a good job at matching complimentary scents as well.
I placed one of the products next to my cats litter box which no matter how many times you clean never stops from smells up whichever room it is in and it managed to mask most if not all the smelly litter odur.That room is not longer a room i avoid going in. So for that alone i will buy this product again!
I would recommend this to anyone and will do so at the next opportunity i get! thanks again Chick Advisor!

I have a small addiction to perfume and this one is definetly a great addition to my collection.
I hadnt ever ordered one of avons scents before but thought i would give this one a try and asked for a sample from my rep. And very quickly after receiving it i ordered a whole bottle.
This is by far my most favourite scent so far. A nice clean scent that can serve many purposes. Daily use, night out.. whatever it may be its great!
The price is fairly resonable. $30 a bottle i believe is what i paid and i think its definetly worth it. The scent lasts for a long time after applying. and its never over powering.
I would recommend this to anyone. I love it!
