This lotion is a pretty good moisterizer. I like putting it on my arms and legs (esp. in the summer) because the lotion has a tiny bit of shimmer, so it gives my skin a bit of a glow. However, I'm not crazy about the scent. It smells nice at first but the scent seems to change after awhile and I don't like that altered scent. -

I had the Intensive Treatment Facial, a 75 min session for only $55. They are not fancy like a real spa but they get the job done and they do it well. My face feels so clean, so soft and smooth. It's a truly refreshing feeling. The aestheticians there are very nice and they explained every step of the treatment. In addition to the facial massage, I also got a little bit of massage on the neck and shoulders AND a wonderful hand/arm massage.
What I didn't like about the treatment was that they used this machine that supposed to purge the impurities from deep inside your pores. The machine gives prickly sensations on your face which I didn't really like. Also, the aesthetician did extractions and although it is a good thing to do, it also hurt a lot.
All in all, it was a great experinece and I highly recommend it to others who wants to have a facial for an affordable price. My face feels fantastic and I will definitely go back for facials again.

I have eaten at Restaurant International several times and each visit was a mindblowing experience. All the food are prepared by the cullinary students at the Algonquin College and they do such a fantastic job. The servers (also students) are very courteous and thoughtful. And the atmosphere is also very relaxing, very nice.
The lunch is usually a 3-course meal for approximately $12 and the dinner is a 4-course meal for $24.00. Personally, I felt the lunch was a much better value since it's 1/2 the price of the dinner and you get more than enough food.
If you want to eat there, you'll have to call ahead to make a reservations. They are only opened for a few hours a day and they usually booked full. Also, they are not opened in the summer since the restaurants are run by students.

Efes Turkish Restaurant

This has got to be THE BEST restaurant in town!! The food is delicious and the service is excellent. I love their lamb shank (see pic) and all that food for only $12.00 CDN. I also enjoyed their Turkish tea and baklava. I have never had such tasty baklava.
The restaurant is located near the corner of Preston and Carling. During the day, you'll have to park on the streets. But in the evenings and weekends, you can park in the parking lot right next to the restuarant that's designed for Efes customers, so it's extremely convenient. The restaurant is small and quaint, a very cosy place for a romantic dinner or friendly get-together with your pals.
PS. They only serve halal meat.

This foaming cleanser liquid is ok. I like the smell of it but it doesn't foam up as nicely as their Pureness Deep Cleansing Foam or their Skincare Foaming Cleanser. Also, after using this cleanser, my face doesn't feel as clean as the other 2 cleansing products.
This is something I would recommend to others, however, I personally prefer the other 2 cleansers I've mentioned.

Biotherm 411 Glossy Splash Moisturizing Aquatic Gloss Shimmering Reflections
This is one of my favourite lip gloss. It goes on smoothly, it's super shiny and best of all, it's not sticky!! The Glossy Splash also has a bit of shimmer that is great for parties or special occasions.

Amazing product! It's completely waterproof and smudge proof! I wore it for my wedding and the mascara didn't run at all even when I was full of happy tears. It doesn't require any eye make-up remover, just luke warm water and gentle rubbing to get the mascara off.
The first time I washed the mascara off, I got freaked out because I thought I was losing my eyelashes. But it was, the eyelash-looking stuff is just the mascara. All my eyelashes are still present and accounted for. :P Be sure to read up on the product on their website, it's pretty cool.

I have the Tickled Pink and the limited edition "Tonic". I love them both! Juicy tubes have got to be the best tasting lipgloss I've ever tried. The gloss is also really shiny and looks great whether you wear it alone or on top of my favourite lipstick. I do find the gloss very sticky and my hair keeps sticking to my lips. However, I keep using it b/c it tastes so good! -

I went to Avalon to get my hair done for my wedding day. It was perfect and the girl did a fantastic job.
I went there a few days before the wedding and had a trial run. Since I was indecisive about my hair, the girl gave me a few suggestions based on the styles I was thinking off. Then we tried out her suggestions which turned out pretty well. Finally, she sent me home with instructions to observe my hair throughout the rest of the day and see how I like the changes.
Then on my wedding day, we made the adjustments (according to my observations) and my hair was perfect for the rest of the day. The service there was excellent and the girl did such a wonderful job.

This is the BEST Greek restaurant I have ever eaten at. The food is amazingly delicious and the portions are huge. The price is excellent and the service is fantastic. When I went to Fredericton get married, I actually went to Dimitri's 3 times in one week and each time I got my favourite Dimitri's meal: Chicken Souvlaki (lunch), Greek Salad + Calamari (light dinner), and Lamb Platter (great if you are really hungry). They also have the best Greek potatoes I've ever had.
To give you an idea how good this place is, we had our wedding rehearsal dinner at Dimitri's. Everyone loved the food and my in-laws couldn't believe how cheap the meal was for 20 people.
