This is my first epilator and I am quite pleased. First off, I find the pain to be worse then waxing mainly because waxing is so much faster while the epilator is pretty slow and you can really feel each hair getting pulled out. I also find it to be quite messy since the epilator yanks out the hair and then it falls to the floor. So afterwards i'm sitting in a pile of hair. But the cost and convenience make up for the pain and mess. It's a one time purchase and then there is no more money to spend. What I love most is being able to epilate whenever I feel like it and not having to worry about making an appointment for a wax at a salon. It also seems to get slightly less painful the more I use it. Overall, once you get past the pain it's definitely worth it! -

I received a sample of the Cottonelle Ultra Bathroom Tissue from the Product Review Club. I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised. At first I expected just another tissue claiming to be soft. I found that this tissue was actually extremely soft and had some substance to it. Not only was it very soft but it also had extreme absorbing abilities and therefore I needed to use a fraction of the amount that I would use with another bathroom tissue. I also found that it didn't leave nearly as many as those little pieces behind which i've never experienced before. Overall I was very pleasantly surprised by this product and I did consider it to be different then a lot of the other bathroom tissues on the market. I was in Shoppers Drugmart on the weekend and I noticed this was on sale so I quickly grabbed a package. I will definitely recommend this product to others. -

I received Febreze Noticeables Morning Walk & Cleansing Rain from the Product Review Club and I overall enjoyed this product. I actually preferred this scent over the vanilla/lavender one. I set mine on low and it was perfect for our smallish apartment. I could definitely smell it when I entered the apartment but it wasn't too strong when I was sitting right beside it. It's very easy to use. My boyfriend took it out of the socket for a few hours to charge his phone and the oil had leaked a bit. I got it on my hands and they smelled very strongly for about two days. So make sure this is always plugged in or at least in an upright position. Otherwise, great product and I would definitely buy this again. I would love to see more options for scent-- maybe something citrus. -
Febreze NOTICEables Dual Scented Pluggable Air Freshener Lavender Comfort & Gentle Vanilla

So I might be one of the first reviewers to say that I didn't love the lavender and vanilla scent. I found it too sweet, perfumey and artificial smelling. I prefer either a fruity scent or a fresh smelling scent. I found it very easy to use but a little bit bulky. I put the setting on 'light' and was pleasantly surprised. I noticed that it filled our apartment right away but this always seems to happen on the first day with a new air freshener. I was really impressed when a few days in, I could still smell it as soon as I entered the apartment. I also felt like there was a good even distribution of the smell. I've used other fresheners where you can only really smell them when you're a foot away. Overall, I would definitely buy this product again but I will be curious to see exactly how long each one lasts. -

I thought the Garnier Fructis Colour Shield shampoo and conditioner worked very well. I really liked the shampoo but I wasn't too crazy about the conditioner. I would prefer to have a conditioner that is similar to the one that comes with the dye and use it on a weekly basis so my hair doesn't get so weighed down. My colour stayed much better when I used the colour shield shampoo and conditioner compared to my regular shampoo and conditioner that I used after the first dye job. I was quite surprised as I always thought these products were sort of overrated. But they actually did help to keep the colour more vibrant and my hair more shiny. I will definitely continue to use these products now and in the future if I colour my hair again. -

I actually returned this product to Sephora. I use Dior Iconic mascara and I thought that paired with this lash plumping serum it would be the ultimate combo. The first time I used this I used it before I went to bed as it says to use at night and in the morning before mascara application. I went to sleep and felt like I was wearing mascara to bed-- it was so uncomfortable. So I thought okay well I won't wear it before bed but lets see what it's like under my mascara. It was easy to apply but then I applied my mascara and it got lumpy and clumpy. The results were much better with just my mascara. I think this product might be useful if you use a different mascara. Overall, this product did not emphasize my lashes any more then using mascara alone. So I returned it. It is also very expensive. -
Garnier Nutrisse Nourishing Colour Cream Hair Color

I thought this dye was great! I've tried many different dyes in the past and this one would definitely rate at the top of my list. I can't stand it when a dye smells really strong and makes my eyes water-- but the Garnier Nutrisse Cream smelled lovely and didn't irritate my senses. Therefore, I couldn't care less if it takes a little longer then some of those '10-minute' products out there. I also found it to be quite thick and it didn't drip at all. I had a towel around my neck and watched tv and the time flew by. The results were amazing. I couldn't keep my hands out of my hair. The colour and coverage were spectacular. I really love the conditioner that came with the dye and think this should be sold separately. I went out on the weekend and in one night I got 3 compliments on my hair-- that has never happened to me before. I would definitely recommend this product and I will use it again. -

I just loved this product! It was easy to use and a little goes a long way!! I loved the way it smelled and it made my hair feel soft and shiny. Not only did I feel like I was protecting my colour but I also felt as though my hair was being nourished. I would be tempted to use this product even if I didn't colour my hair!! -

I discovered this scent many years ago and continue to use it! I absolutely love the way this fragrance smells and makes me feel. It is very light and fresh but also a little mysterious. Everytime I smell this scent on someone else I remember how much I love it! I always have a bottle at home now. It is more of a summer scent and fades quite a bit by the end of the day. However, at the price it sells for you can't go wrong! -
