My previous post disappeared, so I'm writing it again!
I'm in the fence about this problem. I've heard great things about it from blogs and my friends, but I personally don't find it any better than any other drug store lip balm. Granted it does keep your lips moisturized and unchapped, but I don't know if I would spend a regular price on this! I got mine on sale at Shoppers..which was worth it to some extent. I don't think I would buy it again. I might try Kiehl's for higher brand next time, but Burts Bees isn't worth it for me.

Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion Original

I never give a product 5 stars for all three price, quality and effectiveness, but I can definitely say that this primer potion is much more than 5 stars in my book! As a make up artist, I live by this primer. One of the biggest faux pas for eyeshadow makeup is smearing and creasing of the lids which can happen to everyone. Thankfully, this amazing product not only prevents creasing, it also brightens up the colour as well. It works just like any other base, but its effectiveness in long term wear is amazing. I highly recommend it to anyone, especially those who love make up as much as me. Ofcourse, the price affects the quality of the product..but its definitely an investment.
IMPORTANT: For those who already purchased the primer, please make sure you watch you tube videos on this product. The packaging is done in a way that prevents a lot of the primer to stay inside...so WATCH the video on how you can get the most out of it.. I DID AND I LOVE IT!!

I read amazing reviews about this product from different blogs, but I was hesitant to use something new when I already had a MAC mascara that I liked. When I got this at the Shop Crawl loot bag, I was uber excited to try it out.. and it seems to be a unanimous decision amongsts my friends on how great this mascara is. For the price you pay, it works really great - dare I say better than some high end brands?? I love the bold orange colour and the slick wand makes this product as unique as its plastic bristles. This is a definite YES for me and I am going to buy another one when mine runs out! -

I have the same lipgloss as the above picture. I LOVE IT! I love how it glides on my lips without any smearing. Its thicker than your average gloss, so it stays on for a while...especially if you have a matte lipstick as a base. I love the smell and the taste isn't bad at all. I always wear it when I go somewhere at night because of the rich and dark texture. I also love how its so damn cheap! Its really worth every penny :) -

I went there one time with a friend of mine. We went for late lunch on a weekday, so it was pretty empty. Both of us really enjoyed the dishes. We ordered the Caesar Salad, Bengali Salmon and Chocolate dessert. They were all very tasty. I am a big fan on their Salmon; they had it extra spicy upon our request. The waiter was attentive and had a great chat with us since it was pretty mellow. The ambience is cozy and classy, so I really enjoyed it overal. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to go on a date or just with friends. -

I would definitely agree with this store being one of the hippest and most affordable store in West Queen West. I love the different styles, especially the cute mini dresses. At that time, there were only sample sizes (on sale) available which was hard for others to find clothes since they were all medium. However, I'm sure they carry different sizes through out. The person there was friendly and helpful, so I'm sure I will definitely go back. -

I had the privilidge to go to this little gem after the Shop Crawl 3 shopping. You might miss this nook as you're passing by West Queen West, but its definitely very authentic and unique for people to go back. At Cocas, I loved the atmosphere and the friendly environment. The waiters were courteous and the food was delicious. They are set to participate in Summerlicious, so I can't wait for that!! -

I'm usually not a gamer until I got the black Nintendo DS for my birthday last year. I truly love this product. Its an amazing invention, especially for those soduko players. It helps me through the hour long subway rides to work. I would recommend it to anyone who's looking to engage in more interactive games asides from the consoles (xbox, wii). -

A gentle, non-irritating cleanser formulated to the natural pH of skin.

This cleanser was like any over-the-counter cleansers. However, it did have its distinctive qualities. I found the cleanser to have an awful smell; its almost nauseating. At first, I thought I purchased something expired, but it turns out all the cleansers smelled the same :S
The texture was a thick gooey paste, so it was not an effective make up remover. As a cleanser, it worked like any other. The Spectro derm version helped me clear up the dry skin, so it was effective in that sense. Although its a good product overall, the smell was too overcompensating for me to recommend it to my friend.
