Love Lululemon yoga pants. I have about 4 or 5 pairs now! They are extremely comfortable. I probably couldn't live without them. They are a staple in my wardrobe. They have a few different types and they have regular and long lengths. They are $100 a pair which limits me from buying multiple at a time, but they are good quality. I love that they use Luon, it's a really great fabric. -
Tarte For True Blood Palette

The Tarte for True Blood Palette is 17 eyeshadows named after True Blood-y things, an eyelid primer, mascara (Lights, Camera, Lashes) and a eyeliner (It's the gel one by Tarte..mine broke so I don't have it anymore)
I more or less bought this palette because I am a huge fan of True Blood, so I was heavily influenced by that. The packaging is amazing on the outside, but in the pan it is easy for the eye shadows to mix together accidentally. It came with a little card with a few makeup looks.
My favourite shades in this palette are:
DUSK: which is a matte brown with an orange hue to it.
GLAMOUR ME: deep, shimmery purple
TRUE DEATH: a very shimmery/glittery silver.
But I have used almost all of them and do enjoy them. Some of the shades seem to have more of a fall-out than others, but I find that with most eye shadows this can happen anyways.
I love Lights, Camera, Lashes mascara by Tarte, it's one of my favourites and I purchased a full sized one after buying this palette.
The gel eyeliner that was included was emphasEYES gel liner. I was not a fan of this liner, very messy and mine ended up breaking before I could even use all of it.
I love the primer, and I use it often.
All in all, I really love this set and I'm glad I purchased it. It's not available anymore but I thought I would review it in case anyone has an opportunity in the future to buy it!

Olay Body Quench Body Lotion
LOVE this product. A friend gave it to me and I use it all the time. I always use it after shaving my legs and it makes them feel absolutely fantastic after. IT is definitely one of my favourite moisturizers.

I have rated this store as a You Betcha because I do enjoy the products that they sell but I do not enjoy the service. In about 9/10 stores the service is absolutely horrible. I've been to locations in multiple cities in Ontario(London, Brantford, Hamilton, Ottawa, Kingston etc) and only in 1 store have I actually felt that they cared that I was in there(Hamilton location). I am rarely greeted when I enter the store, rarely asked if I need help and I almost never see an employee leave the cash register area. Even when going to purchase something the staff is rude and not friendly towards anyone but each other.
Purchasing from their online website (boathousestores.com) was an even worse experience. I placed an order with 1 item in November of 2011 around the last week, the purchase was charged to my credit card on Dec 3, and I never received the product as they claimed to only charge your card when the product has been shipped. After much searching (at this time they didn't even provide a phone number on their website) I found the phone number to head office and planned to call in a few days if I didn't receive my order. I received a phone call on Dec 13 from head office saying that they were sorry and that they hadn't shipped my order yet and that they would refund my shipping & handling costs (on a order over $60). I was not impressed but got off the phone anyways and they said they would ship it the next day. I received a call again from head office a few hours later saying that they felt I was unhappy with what they offered me and were only now willing to offer me my order for free and refund my purchase. Although this was nice of them, it should have been offered the first time as I waited almost a month for my order and it should have only taken 5 days to get to me.

Always Infinity Pads
When I first purchased these, I wasn't overly impressed with them but after consistently using them I really love this product. It's very thin and comfortable but I've never had an issue with it.

I purchased this product on a weekend away from home after accidentally leaving my makeup bag at home. I wasn't terribly impressed with this product. The brush is horrible, and having none of my own had no other choice but to use the one provided. I only applied a little of it because the shade even though it was the light bronze was a little to dark for my skin tone, which is fine as most companies don't cater to fair skinned people. Personally I wouldn't purchase this product again, I only used it a few times and did not like the results. -

No matter which Sephora location I go into I am always greeted by someone working there and they always ask if I need help with anything. If I have questions about make up best suited for me they are very willing to answer and spend as much time as needed working with me to find the best product. I have never been treated poorly in a Sephora store and the staff is always very friendly. Even though the make up is expensive, it is worth it. I rarely buy drugstore brands anymore because they just don't work as well. -

As much as I do enjoy some of the clothing provided in the Aritzia stores, every time I enter one of the stores they are extremely crowded and no one even bothers to ask if you need any help. The staff is rude and poorly trained and only concerned with standing around talking to each other and I found this in every location of the store, not just the London location. Upon entering the store if I walk around for the few minutes and no one working bothers to greet me I leave without purchasing anything regardless of if I wanted to or not. -

I purchased this product for the first time almost 3 years ago now and used it every day until I purchased the Make Up Forever high coverage concealer. Again I love Make Up Forever's products because they cater to the fair skinned. I use No. 15 Alabaster and it blends well with my natural colouring. Depending on how you decide to apply this foundation is where it comes down to how much you'll enjoy it. I have tried using my fingers, a sponge and a foundation brush. I find that using your hands and a brush are two of the best ways I found the sponge technique left lines on my face. This product is oil proof and water resistant. It lasts all or most of the day, you don't have to use a lot as it is a full coverage foundation. -
