I heard a couple people say decent things about this, so I decided to give it a try. This has been the worst foundation I have ever used! It did not cover well nor did it stay in place as the day went on. I picked up the shade 430 - classic beige, which matched my skin tone quite well. I am not sure if it was the "blendable minerals" the product boasts about, but it actually changed colours on my skin after some time and I ended up with literally a grey face. I would never buy this again, even to test another formula – I am just entirely too put off by my first experiences using this. I did try it a few times because I thought I may have done something weird, but nope - it' was just the product. Please be wary of this one! Patch test it if you can and come back later if you decide to give it a try in case it oxidizes crazy. -

I normally do not like to use aerosol sprays. I happened to pick this up because it was on sale and was too good of a deal to pass up. I had used products from this brand in the past so I also thought it would not hurt to give it a try and I am glad I did! This has really great staying power for me (I have straight, soft, and thin hair). There were no flakes during spraying or after it had dried on my hair either and it kept everything flexible! I have a hard time getting curls to stay in my hair. While this does not last all day for me (I have not found a product that will yet), it does hold for at least half of the day, which is great! There was no chemical type of smell from this which was another plus. -

I am not a huge fan of sweets, but I love these Chocolates! My favourite type is the Hazelnut, followed by Almond. I normally only get a small amount of these during the winter when they are commonly out for promotion in my area. The outer chocolate casing is thin and has the perfect crunch to it. The chocolate inside melts smoothly as you eat it and inside is a great treat as well! I love when the holidays come around because my entire family gifts these and I get a few boxes to go through when I feel the need to have a treat. These are super addicting, however, so be prepared to eat a whole bunch if you do no have the self discipline to limit yourself! :P They are a little bit more expensive than a number of other similar sweets, but if you can get them in a promotion pack of sometime, you can usually save a little money. -

Flavoured water is almost always my drink of choice, and I have been a Perrier drinker specifically for years. The grapefruit water is their favorite flavor of mine. The brand does tend to cost a bit more than some others, but once you start drinking these, it really is difficult to go back to drinking anything else. One of the main reasons I enjoy this product, is because I get no chemical aftertaste, nor is it sugary. It is a bit tangy and since this is grapefruit flavoured without added sweetener, it may not be for everyone. This is a perfect summertime drink, but because I am an addict, I drink it all year around so long as it is available in the store. As with most drinks, I do prefer this in the large glass bottles over cans and plastic, but that is personal preference – the taste is not as altered as other beverages that come in a variety of containers. -

For the price, there is not much reason to complain on the little shortcomings this brand has compared to Q-Tips, for example. Just for informational purposes: There is not as much cotton on some of the tips and sometimes bits of the cotton will shred/shed off. There seems to be a bit of inconsistency with the tips; that really is the only big difference that I notice. There is slightly more give to the structure of them, but I kind of like that so it is less likely that I poke too deep trying to maneuver around in my ears. Overall they get the job done without too much fuss and cost less than competitors. They are also available in a large number of stores so you do not normally have to run around searching because they are not stocked – if they happen to be sold out, you can find a place nearby that will also carry them. -
