Sloppy Joe's are a major comfort food from my childhood, and this is the best mix for making them in my opinion. I have made the sauce from scratch and I have made them with Manwich, and both taste exactly the same. If I need to make a quick meal that actually tastes delicious, I will add Manwich, ground beef, and buns to my grocery list. -

I i would recommend this and I put that the value is great because we are talking about Dollarama makeup, here!
I obviously did not buy this expecting a great product or even a good product, because it was $3 for a 3 pack and it's the dang Dollar store, but man, it was better than I thought.
If you're in a beauty pinch and you forgot your lippy or your makeup bag, then I would recommend swinging into Dollarama for a candy bar and a $3 pack of this Matte gloss. I will also tell you that it's sticky and if you close your mouth before it dries you, won't be able to open it. It is matte and it flakes about as bad as ole J.Star, and it is awful, but it's cheap and very good for an emergency. Or maybe you have a friend that you don't like that much? Perfect gift!

The only thing this product took off or out of my skin were tiny hairs. It hurts like all hell when you pull it off, almost like pulling duct tape off of your face, and it did not remove blackheads.
The advertisements is also very, very false; you will never have a strip look like that and if you put enough of the product on your face to have a strip like that, 1. It would not dry 2. You would use your entire bottle.
It is extremely thick and sticky and very hard to handle and apply to your skin, and it did not work for me expect as a hair removal so I will not be buying again.

Olay complete all day UV moisturizer SPF15 for sensitive skin

This is the first moisturizer that I have ever tried, and I like it. I don't know what my face is supposed to feel with a moisturizer, but I will describe mine as matte with the teeniest bit of oil feel. It smells good and I don't have to use a lot, which is good because the price is silly for the 120ml size. I may try another moisturizer after this just to test the waters, as I have not bought one before this. -

I only use this mask about twice a month because my skin is light combination. When I know my hormones are causing my face to be more oily I will use this mask to keep blemishes at bay. I leave it on for the recommended time and I can actually see where the oil has seeped out of my pores on the dry mask.
This is refreshing as a once a week treatment with oilier skin and I like it as a spa day treat about twice a month.
It's a tad more pricey than I would like it to be and I will buy again in the future, but I might switch to another mask in between each buy.

Oh Lord Almighty! I thank you for this brand and AMEN!
Now with that out of the way...
PROS:
It gives my face a warm tingling sensation when applying as the mask. (At first I freaked out and thought I was having an allergic reaction, but I wasn't)
It smells great; it has a clean scent with a hint of vanilla
It's very easy to apply, and it's easy to massage and use as an exfoliate after my 7 minutes of leaving it on my face is up.
It's way cheaper than some other brands that do the same exact thing.
It leaves my face soft and without any patches of dry flakes.
CONS:
It looks gross.
It feels gross.
The top is hard to close after using the gel for the first time, because of the sugar.
So those pros definitely outweigh my cons and I will buy this again.

So this is probably my favourite matte lipstick, hands down.
I've tried Kylie, I've tried Katy's demi matte, and I've tried a few cheapies and NYX liquid suede, and so far NYX Soft Matte Cream is my favourite.
Pros:
- It is vibrant and I feel like every shade looks good on me.
- After about 5 minutes of drying, I have minimal lift when eating or drinking. Finally a lipstick that I don't end up eating.
- It doesn't dry out my lips at all. It doesn't flake and it doesn't leave a weird gunky feeling at the corner of my mouth. It also doesn't make my lips stick together and get all clumpy after re-applying.
- Not only does it not dry out my lips, it feels like it's actually moisturizing my lips.
Cons:
- I have to put two coats on to get my lips to look like the true shade in the bottle.
- Because of that ^^ I have to buy it more often.
All in all, my favourite matte.

LOVE! Love, love, this product. I did receive it free from the Product Review Club, but that absolutely does not sway my opinion.
This leaves my hair looking good in between my every 3 day washing (because 75% of my hair is over processed, dry and damaged). My hair looks vibrant and not oily on the roots at all, and it's easy to rub in my hair and brush and style. It does leave a bit of a stiff feeling, but I generally wear a braid, bun, or ponytail, so I don't need my hair to flow.
I love the smell of the spray and it is a big bottle and a great amount for the selling price. I would definitely recommend this product.

THIS IS A GIFT FROM THE GODS!
In all seriousness though, I love this stuff. It does not repair your hair, it makes your hair normal like you haven't fried it from over processing until you wash it again. Now since I haven't found anything that repairs my hair, I will use this product happily.
It has a great smell, it has a great price and is almost always on sale, and it's so easy to apply with a small application amount. It makes my hair like it was before I went blonde about 3 times. Definitely a must buy or at least a must try if you have heavily damaged hair.

NIVEA Protect & Care Anti-perspirant/Deodorant

This is a great deodorant; it doesn't leave a film, the scent lasts all day, it does not smear all over my clothes, and it pretty much does it's overall job. The price for this deodorant is comparable to most drugstore deodorant's, i.e. very decent price and worth your penny.
I will never buy this deodorant because I do not like the smell; it almost smells like men's cologne. But I suggest you pop the top off before buying and smell it yourself, because that is strictly my opinion, and the scent is the ONLY thing keeping me from buying this product in the future.
*I received this for free from Chick Adviser's Product Review Club, but it is an unbiased review.
