Although this serum is nothing breakthrough or revolutionary, it didn't break my skin out and was at least quite moisturizing. This serum works more as a preventative vs. curing once you have acne, although it definitely doesnt prevent all acne from forming. -

I really wanted to love this product given some the reviews I had seen, the price point and what was inside as ingredients. Unfortunately, the product broke me out after just 2 uses (used them exclusively at night, as a thin layer). It also doesn't help that the founder/ Brandon has really drawn a negative spotlight on both himself and therefore his company in the recent months. Not that I am completely opposed, but definitely not a brand im jumping up and down to try. -

As a fan of the kinder surprise eggs as a kid, I love the "evolution" of the eggs to a spoonable version. This also doesnt crush easily during transport but still gives the same fun factor with the toy as a regular surprise egg. One caveat - the chocolate is quite sweet but it is delicious! -

Although categorized as a soft drink, this isnt really a true soft drink/ pop. I would akin this drink more to a Japanese version of Gatorade as it is marketed as a product with ions as perfect to recover after exerting any exercise or energy. Although Gatorade has several flavours, this one comes in only one (from what I know) and has a slightly salty and sweet flavour. Although not my favourite, I know several friends who prefer this version over Gatorade (also less artificial with the colours as it is a milky white) -

This product comes in a cute pump bottle with a cap, which I love just to prevent any accidental spills. The actual essence itself is a light brown colour, light and doesn't really have a scent. Although I now prefer using products with some active ingredients, this is a good essence for those who are not looking for any actives. -
American Apparel Nail Lacquer in Crescent Heights

I love this colour! Its a dark pink (read: not hot pink) that is perfect for summertime! I received so many compliments on this colour, and the wear is quite good when paired with my top coat. One negative though is that the formula is quite thick and can be tricky to apply just right. -

This primer felt lightweight and applied easily on my skin. It did what a good primer should and protecting my face from the chemicals. Although I am not particularly sold as a HG product, I will continue to use this and may even consider repurchasing. -

I actually started using this product with my sister's rave reviews, but for me it just felt like an average gel cream. The consistency is thicker, clear and very true to its name as a gel which is perfect for the hot summer days. However, I'm not sure if there are any real benefits vs. another gel cream. -
Know Cosmetics No Bare Brows
I'd say this is an average eyebrow pencil. It comes with the sharpener and an eyebrow brush (note: not a spoolie) but it is convenient to have everything you need in one place. It is also very easy to use and glides on well, but I found that the wax... +
I'd say this is an average eyebrow pencil. It comes with the sharpener and an eyebrow brush (note: not a spoolie) but it is convenient to have everything you need in one place. It is also very easy to use and glides on well, but I found that the wax on the other side was both
a) fairly useless and doesn't tame my brows the way other products would and
b) is very brittle and breaks really easily.
However for $30, I think it is a bit steep for just an average eyebrow pencil

Etude House Moistfull White Cream

I tried the Aloe and Collagen versions of the Moistfull line, and liked them enough to give their White Cream a chance too. Unfortunately, I found this one the least "beneficial" in that I did not see a whitening (re: brightening) effect on my skin. Also, it did not leave my skin feeling plump the next morning the collagen one did. However, the difference is that the white version has small "beads" that dissolve and melt into your face as you rub the cream in (what I presume to be the whitening beads), so there was a little bit of a fun factor as well. -
