I Love this charming little movie. A lot of people have never heard of it, and that's why I thought it would be nice to put a review up. Meg Ryan is adorable, and Kevin Klein plays an incredibly charming French thief. It is a must see!
Brief plot summary:
Meg Ryan plays Kate, a woman who has a phobia for flying but gets on a plane to France to confront her fiance who has just called off their wedding. Kevin Klein plays Luc, a smuggling French man who sits beside Kate, and puts a grape vine and stolen necklace in Kate's bag to get it through customs. When her bag is stolen (the grape vine lost, as well as the necklace), Luc and Kate head to Cannes in order to find the bag, and for Kate to woo her (ex)-fiance back. In the meantime, Luc and Kate start developing feelings for each other.
You'll fall in love with the characters and the beautiful scenery in the film!

I cannot say enough about this film. Joseph Gordon-Levitt is brilliant in his role as a hopeless romantic, who quickly begins to question his beliefs about love after starting to date the new girl at his place of work, Zooey Deschanel, who does not believe in love at all. The film begins by warning that it is NOT a love story. I absolutely LOVED it. It has quickly become a classic, with its quirky comedic factor, 'tragic' romance, and sometimes vintage feel (filmography, and costume design). I would recommend this movie to anyone! (not just the ladies) My boyfriend fell in love with it as well! It's hard not to. -

I really like the food at Spring Rolls, and I think the ambience is really great (in comparison to a lot of Asian Restaurants). With that said, I feel like it is more Americanized, and I would not go there for an authentic Asian dish. But, I think their some of their dishes are really delish! I love the green curry (with shrimp), and the Ho Fun noodles in Satay. I am not a big fan of their appetizers, but the entrees are great! Also, try the martinis there, they are really good (with fun names;) ) -

This has been my night cream for the past 4 years or so. It really works well for my skin. I have yet to find another night cream that I prefer next to this one. For me, it does what it claims, tightens pores, helps with imperfections, and evens out the surface of my skin. I would absolutely recommend this product to anyone based on my experience (With that said, I realize everyones skin is very different, and could react differently to any skin care product).
I like:
- the smell of the lotion
- the lightness of it
- the way it goes on very smoothly
- most importantly, the effects of using it are incomparable
At 30$, this cream is worth every penny! (lasts about 3 months)

I received this product for testing from PR. As someone who has tried to minimize hair washing due to damaged hair, I really like this product (it does not make my hair feel greasy/dirty after 1 day of sans-shampoo).
I really like the way the shampoo makes my hair feel so light and clean after wash. The conditioner is thick and creamy (I put it on my ends only), and it does an amazing job in hydrating the hair! My hair is less tangled, more manageable, and softer! I haven't noticed a difference in whether or not it helps breakage at all. The scent is also very nice, but not too strong. Overall, I would recommend this product based on its price, quality and effectiveness!

Maybelline New York Colossal Volum' Express Mascara

I was fairly disappointed with this mascara. I would say it was just about average, or below average. First of all, I do not think this mascara does what it claims: which is to add Volume (it's in the name!). My lashes were very separated, and they looked less 'volumized' wearing this mascara vs. not wearing any mascara at all! Another thing I did not like about it is that at the end of the day, it was very flaky. Other than that, the mascara is pretty average. The price is good, the quality is OK, but the effectiveness is below average (for me). -
L'Oreal Studio Secrets Magic Perfecting Base

I really love this primer! I have never purchased a primer before this, although I have used various brands before from samples. This is the only one that has ever gotten me convinced! (hence, the purchase)
Here are the things I love about it:
- it goes on super smooth, and has a luxurious texture
- it instantly matifies the skin for a perfecting effect before applying foundation!
- it is unscented, and it does not irritate my very sensitive skin
- The price is under 15$ for a highly effective and high quality product!
- it makes the application of foundation 10X easier and more 'perfect'
Overall, I would recommend this product to anyone with normal, sensitive skin! :)

I recently bought this perfume from Victoria Secret (Toronto). They were having their semi-annual sale, so I ended up buying this particular fragrance for 75% off normal price! To be honest, I didn't even really smell it in the store, I just loved the box it came in and how the perfume looked, and the fact that it was named "chiffon" and Peony's are my favorite flowers (besides orchids). Then, because it was 75% off, i thought I must have it!! I am so glad I made the purchase; I have been wearing the perfume everyday! I just love it. It is light, smells like peony, freesia and a touch of vanilla. It is not too sweet, it is just perfect. The best word I can think to describe this perfume is 'Pretty'. I can't get enough of it-- I am going to go back to see if they are still on sale to stock up! -

I received a small sample of this product while working at a salon a while ago. At that time, my hair was really frizzy all the time. The sample was very small 5ml. but it lasted for 2 months! So, even though this product retails for a higher price than I would normally pay, it is well worth the price because it lasts forever!
Here are the things I really liked:
- you only have to use a drop and run it through the ends of your hair (it instantly tames fly-aways and frizz!)
- it smells delicious!
- it does not feel TOO greasy on your hands after running it through your hair
- you can use it on wet hair before blow-drying or after to give some luster and shine
Overall, I love this product. I would definitely purchase based on its effectiveness and quality!
