I had high hopes but was let down with this product..
I originally purchased any polish that included the shade romantique ( a sheer pink/ nude) That also came with a mini bottle of the topcoat.
I find I found this product extremely hard to apply and it started to chip off within a day. I had heard really good things about this product so I was hoping to like it more than I did. Perhaps not all shades are created equally? Also the small bottle could have added to the challenge of application.
I will update if I purchase a full size colour and a different shade and get better results.

I began using this product several years ago I originally purchased it at shoppers drug Mart. My hair is coloured treated and also extremely fine. Though during the winter months my hair is very dry, every other season seems to leave me with oily hair. This powder is super easy to apply, gives great volume as well! It has come down a bit and it’s price point which is greatly appreciated
Pros
- Only a small amount is needed to get a large amount of volume
- This product also helps with oiliness of the scalp as well
- Does not leave behind any weird scent
- A little goes a long way so I find a bottle of this product last me at least 4 to 5 months
Cons
- I find if I use it too often it can cause build up and residue.
- If you apply to much it may make the top of your scalp appear a bit white ( Which is a big no-no for me with dark hair)
I will continue to re-purchase and I recommend this product to anyone looking to add some volume to their hair quickly.

I can honestly say that this product does exactly as it says so. I originally came to try this product back in 2011, after receiving a sample at Sephora. My previous experiences with whitening products which you can purchase at Shoppers Drug Mart etc Often left me with teeth that were way too sensitive and a product regimen that I could never stick to ( ex. Wearing white strips for a half an hour twice a day.)
Pros
- easy to apply, just crack the tube, apply product each morning and before bed, no messy strips to pull off!
- Does not leave my teeth or gums feeling overly sensitive
- Visibly whitens teeth in just one or two uses, I even had a girlfriend of mine complement how white my teeth looked after just two days of using
- Cost wise, you get what you pay for and in this case this product really works
- Small, lightweight and easy to pack if using while travelling
- Visibly reduced stains on teeth from Tea, coffee and red wine
Cons
- One time when I snapped the tube I somehow got a piece of it stuck in my finger and it was quite painful! But I am sure that I am an anomaly and this is not the case for most users.
I will continue to purchase this product for as long as I can continue to find it! I generally purchase it at shoppers drug Mart but not all local ones carry it

I purchased this product with no expectations.
Luckily, I was pleasantly surprised! After suffering from sleep issues (Both staying asleep and falling asleep) on for the last few years, I was Surprised to find a Tea that not only helps me to relax before bed but also actually tastes good to the point where I don’t need to add any sweetener whatsoever.
Well I can’t attest to the tease ability to help me stay asleep, I can say it is especially helpful drinking before bed as it relaxes me and is now a part of my nightly sleep hygiene routine. The only thing I had to tweak was to drink it at least an hour and a half before bed as opposed to the recommended 30 minutes before bed as taking it 30 minutes before bed ended up waking up my bladder in the middle of the night! Now that I drink it an hour and a half before bed no problem there.

I purchased this product at Sephora at the recommendation of a Sephora employee. I must say that this product has surpassed my expectations. In the past, I have tried several other lip exfoliators and was unsuccessful In finding my “holy grail” product. After consistently using this product for the last year and a half I can finally say that it is my holy grail lip polish/ scrub. According to their website “Proven to keep lips moisturized for 6 hours
100% reported healthier-looking, softer lips
97% noticed smoother, more hydrated lips with improved texture
94% felt it exfoliated and removed dry patches while making lips supple and revitalized
*in vivo”
I would agree with the above results listed on their website
Pros
- Easy to apply, just rub a small amount on your lips and then rinse off
- Manages to get rid of dead skin on my lips without causing irritation or blemishes
- Recommended usage is 2 to 3 times a week on average which is very manageable for me
Cons
- price is a tad steep but so Worth it as I mentioned above

I originally sampled this product after trying it at a local shoppers drug Mart. Kept my skin extremely smooth I did not leave behind any residue; It also has a beautiful fragrance that is not too overpowering that is if you are comfortable with a scented product.
The only drawback in my opinion is the price. If you can find this product along with other Vichy products as a set, you may find it at a better value. Overall this is a great product that I will continue to re-purchase.

I really liked the individual packaging but the taste was off putting, a bit too bitter for my liking. That being said, if you prefer a bitter tea, you may enjoy this product. Sadly, I will not be buying this again but will enjoy their matcha products.

I find that the older I get, the more sensitive my skin becomes. I purchased this product in a gift set that also came with One pair of cosy socks and three Shea butter cartridges so the cost was well worth it at 19.99 cdn.
Pros
_ Leaves my skin extremely soft and smooth especially during the dry winter months
- Does not irritate my sensitive skin
- It’s a two in one product as it lather and shaves in one step
-The value of the gift set was extremely worth it
- Easy grip so that I don’t drop it like some other razors
Cons
- Because the razor is wider than most it is challenging to use in the bikini area.
Even though I did receive this with the gift set and won’t need to re-purchase a cartridge for quite some time because it has four in total I will definitely re-purchase when needed! I recommend this product to anyone who has sensitive skin and Prefers to multitask by lathering and shaving in one step!

I first use this polish in the colour sheers to you in 2017. Since then, I have also purchased on the mauve, indigo for it and a game.
I’m not quite sure if it restores my nails from peeling and breakage because I use a topcoat with it.
I find that the colour a game, Is a one coat wonder and has lasted 6 to 7 days without chipping. It also stays extremely shiny for the entire wear.
That being said, when I use on the mauve I find that it appears dull a day after applying.
I want to believe that it is taking care of my nails because many of the shades are beautiful, But I am still determining if it does indeed minimize breakage and peeling. I will update after using my most recent purchase , see the light. I will also skip a topcoat so I can give an appropriate update.
