if you need a gym to work out at, this is probably good enough (i am speaking exclusive to one location as i have not visited others). however, i find that the staff are a hit and miss group and sometimes you get a fantastic individual, other times you get a shoddy one. it's too relaxed and not at all tight in terms of membership and that bothers me because i pay to get in whereas i have seen freeloaders get through. i would have to say that for a gym, it's pretty big, but nothing compared to the health clubs i have seen down south. you have your basic cardio equipment (that often is very used or worse, broken), free and weight machines. there is a women's only portion that is considerably smaller and often females are forced to get into the co-ed part of the gym. the one i go to has a spinning studio and boxing area. i have only ever gone to TWO spinning classes because they get filled SO fast (what did you expect with only about 8-10 bikes?) and the bike i did get on was broken. boxing is extra so if you wanted to do that, you'd have to shell out more money.
the worst part is that you don't get what you pay for. if you're a big fitness buff, you might want to look into something better. but, if you just want somewhere you can take some classes and run or cycle, this is probably suitable.

i once had my bangs cut too short and every morning, they were standing on end. i could not for the love of god get them to stay down or on the right side. i went searching around town and found this wonderful paste that doesn't leave hair sticky or stiff. my hair now stays in place without getting greasy or sticky. and you use very little of it to get the job done too! -

meant to be a bronzer but i love the matte look it leaves on my face so i use it in the place of blush. although, you could certainly use it for its original purpose of blush. you dont need much on your face and i find that it can be kind of difficult to spread properly and you may end up with uneven spots if you are not more careful in blending the colour. lasts a longgg time though. is subtly shiney-metallic and not overly shiney.
i believe this brand comes from australia?

wonderful for people with slightly dryer skin. one colour covers all. i use to use another foundation that i found didn't work for my more dry skin and felt a little thick on so i tried this one and absolutely love it. it's so easy to apply. very low probability to make a streaky error on your face. and it covers mild redness any where on your face. it is a light to moderate coverage. i find that it leaves my skin very natural looking without looking caked on with make up.
one shade for almost all skin tones. i think benefit came out with one for darker complexions recently.
the only inconvenience is that it is silicone based so leaves my make up brush really greasy and i have to clean it every 3 days or so. it also comes with an applicator sponge though.

i would never have thought to go floral as i always thought they were too "girly" and not me enough. but it's wonderfully feminine and classic. not at all overdone. good to wear during the day or evening. last time i wore this out, i had both my guy friends sniffing me at the start of the evening. certainily not quite the reaction i was expecting.
however, the price is up there and i dont know i would have bought it if it were not a gift.
Gucci Envy notes include hyacinth, magnolia, green notes, jasmine, lily of the valley, violet, iris, woods, musk.

best make up remover i have ever used. removed EVERYTHING from your face without rubbing or scrubbing your sensitve eye areas. i have tried a few others with nearly not as much success as this one. even though it is pricier than i would like, it is probably the best one on the market at the moment! -

i originally received this product as a gift and didn't think too much of it because i thought that it would be another flop of a lotion. but, for a body lotion, it really is wonderfully hydrating for the skin. i use it everytime following a shower and my skin always feels less "tight" from being stripped of moisture. you don't even need a terrible amount for your body. i have had my one 240 ml tube for over a year now. -

jo malone has 6 different fragrance groups: spicy, floral, light green floral, fruity, woody, citrus. blue agava and cacao is considered a floral fragrance that is "Inspired by the rhythm and vibrancy of Latin music, Blue Agava & Cacao is a sparkling citrus melody of lime and grapefruit leads to an exquisite heart of the blue agava. A sensual blend of vetiver, cinnamon and the primitive rawness of cacao, make an unexpected and surprising harmony." smells a little like chocolate and yumminess all over, yet manages to be sensual and sexy. love it or hate it say some. -
