I love the smell of this stuff!! Price is great also at $2.50 CDN you really can't go wrong with it. It does give you volume but in a very subtle way which is why for effectiveness i took off a star and a half. If I am comparing it to my prev. volumizng mousse which was the Aussie one, it doesn't"look" like you have product in your hair which depending on what you like it might be a good thing, for me it's great because I don't like my hair to feel or look like I have tons of product in it which this doesn't, i just wish it had a bit more to it when I style my hair. -

I really hate moisturizers that have SPF in them as most of moisturizers out there leave my skin feeling really greasy and usually lead to breakouts. I have to say that this one however does neither, I received this as a sample and was pleasantly surprised by it. The consistency isn't overly thick and it spreads easily, it doesn't have the sunscreen smell to it which i really hate and it absorbs into the skin really nice without leaving my face feeling greasy. I think it also adds some glow to my face, and doesn't break me out which usually happens. -

I've tried a lot of facial wipes and I have to say these have become one of my favorite. I use them mostly in my double cleanse routine when I can't be bothered exfoliating or using my facial cleaning oil and they remove my make up without any problems. I've found with some facial wipes I have to use two to just remove my make up or they just seem to spread my make up all over my face but not these, they remove EVERYTHING. They smell nice without being overly fragrant, they are a standard size and leave my skin feeling soft and hydrated. Pricing is pretty standard for a premium brand at around $10 CDN for the big pack or $5CDN for the travel pack and you get a good quantity in them. -
andalou naturals apricot probiotic cleansing milk

I think this might become my new cleanser, it smells great of Apricots. Obviously because it's a cleansing milk it doesn't foam or lather which at first is weird because i'm used to cleansers foaming or lathering but it leaves my skin so clean feeling and hydrated. Since I've been using this cleanser my skin tone has evened out, is less dry looking/feeling and also I have less breakouts. Also love that it is all natural, vegan friendly and cruelty free. -
Andalou Argan Oil & Shea Shampoo
This shampoo smells great but that's about it, tried it a few times with a few different products and each time it made my hair look very dull and almost greasy looking, will not be buying this again, I am glad I only bought a travel size.

Got this as a sample to try. The 1st time I tried it I didn't think it really did anything but the 2nd time I actually styled my hair and it wasn't bad. It goes on with a whitish cast, all you really have to do is spray, rub into roots and style however you want and it smells pretty good also, it definitely will extend the length of your hair for another day. I wouldn't use this on a daily basis as it made my head kinda itchy and I don't generally like these kind of products however I think it's good to keep on hand in case of an emergency, such as sleeping in and not having time to blow dry your hair. -

On my quest to find a good foundation that actually works, I decided to try the L'Oreal True Match foundation. It is to bad this didn't work for me as the finish is actually pretty nice and it blends nicely. At $16 CDN it is on the more expensive side of drugstore foundations however it has a pretty good shade range that I think most people would be able to find their color match. The consistency is very very runny, the coverage does as it says from light to full coverage however for me to get the coverage I like (which is high medium coverage) I have to use ALOT of product which means the bottle wont last long so that was a negative for me. The biggest drawback was how it wore through the day, by the end of my work day (regular 8 hours) it completely broke down and I was like an oil slick, I couldn't wait to get home to remove it. This foundation is definateley one that i will NOT be recommending or re buying. -

OMG! I am in love with this natural deodorant. Since I've started using some all natural products, I have been trying to find an all natural deodorant that actually works, I had pretty much given up hope after trying a few that didn't work out until I was in Marshal's one day and saw this one for a pretty cheap price, i figured why not try it out. I am glad I did, I am also blown away by how well this stuff works. This was the only scent they had which I am not in love with however I know they have lots of other scents, Love that it is a stick and not one you have to put on with your fingers, you get quite a lot of product in the stick and it doesn't seem like it runs out fast. I have been wearing it for a week straight and I don't have any smell, it keeps my dry all day long and night and doesn't leave white marks on my clothes. The only thing I will say that takes a bit getting used to and some people may not like is that it is a pretty sticky feeling to it when you put it on, it takes a bit getting used to at first. I will be a re-buying this for sure in the future! -

Got the Shampoo ad Conditioner as samples through the mail, I have tried other Whole Blends shampoo before and i have never been a fan of this brand or any Garnier products for that matter. One thing I will say is that both this new formula smells absolutely amazing, It lathers well, you don't need a lot however it just doesn't make my hair look great, I find it makes my hair look dull and greasy. -

I went to Sephora for the 1st time the other day to look for a foundation and to get matched for my correct shade. I was a bit nervous going in however the consultant that helped me was super nice, friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. She color matched me, and made suggestions on the type of foundation I should start with, she gave me a free sample of the foundation to try. I didn't feel pressured in any way to buy anything and wasn't hounded/followed around by the sales consultants. Overall I really like this place, I am planning on returning. -
