I looooove this!! Got it as part of the swag from the last shop crawl - and I use it everyday!
It has now replaced my perfume. I never thought I would like a rose scent, but it has a very fresh and pretty scent and lasts all day.
It is light and doesn't go on greasy. The spray is great because I can put it on very quickly as I rush out the door. I really love this and will definitely be purchasing once it runs out!

These liners are awesome! I normally don't buy/wear them but after I am done with this first pack, I will definitely be re-purchasing.
Why I like them -
1 - so comfy you don't even know you are wearing them
2- flexible shape, allows you to wear with different styles of panties
I think these could even be worn when it's not 'that time of the month' they are just that comfortable!
Would highly recommend.

These were great! I am normally an 'Always' user, and this is another example of why!
These were thin, comfortable and quite absorbent considering how thin they are!
Normally I would not consider using a pad of this thick...or shall I say..thinness for overnight, but I definitely tried these out overnight and they were very effective!

Nice mascara! I received this as part of the swag bag from the ShopCrawl - (thanks Ali)! It is a very cool product, and I am so glad I got to try it out.
In terms of the vibrating effect - it is a neat feeling, at first it tickled, but after a few seconds I got used to it! I am not entirely sure how effective the vibrating actually is, vs. manually applying the mascara. I tried it out with and without the vibration and mascara seemed to apply equally as well.
That being sad - I am very happy with how it goes on! Lengthening and volumizing and had a very rich black colour.
I am also happy with the waterproof factor - was caught in a huge rainstorm, and the mascara held its own! No smudging or running down my face whatsoever!
I would purchase this again.

She's The Man (2006)
What a great movie! It was actually really funny, cute, and had a great story. Amanda Bynes was great in this film, and I really enjoyed her character! Could be classified as a "chick flick" although both my parents have watched this movie and... +
What a great movie! It was actually really funny, cute, and had a great story. Amanda Bynes was great in this film, and I really enjoyed her character!
Could be classified as a "chick flick" although both my parents have watched this movie and enjoyed it as well!
If you are looking for a light-hearted comedy/romance, with lots of laughs - watch She's the Man.

Received this as a Christmas gift this year, and find it very useful! It is great for smoothing out those rough feet, especially great for sandal season! Found this little 'egg' to be gentle to the skin, and I'm not scared of cutting myself.
I have only used it a few times, but would recommend getting this vs. other feet tools (I have used them and they can hurt!)
My only one complaint is sometimes some of the skin (sorry!) comes out of the blade holes as you are using it, which can be undesirable!

Banana Boat Kids Sunblock Lotion, Dri-Blok, SPF 30

I will be upfront and say this lotion is for kids! There is an identical version for "grown ups", although I love the smell of the kids version more! It is kind of a nice banana/tropical scent :)
This sunscreen is the BEST! The reason being is that it dry when you put it on, so once you rub it in, it turns into kind of a silky/powdery finish. This is perfect for the beach, because you won't get all the sand stuck all over you!
Took this lotion on a trip to the dominican with a girlfriend of mine - she ended up loving it and we both shared it for the rest of the trip.
All in all, good scent, not sticky or oily, waterproof - A

Went to Spring Rolls a few weeks ago for the first time. The indoor decor was nice and the restaurant had a cool vibe about it. The service was decent, and the food was also tasty, but not one of the best thai dishes I have ever had.
I only had the pad thai and didn't try anything else on the menu - so it is hard to judge the rest of their dishes.
Overall, it is a fair price for a quality meal. If you aren't too picky and looking for a social/fun environment, I would recommend spring rolls. If you are looking for high quality thai cuisine, I don't think this is the best option.

COVERGIRL LashBlast Volume Mascara

I used to only use DiorShow, which is about $15 or more expensive than LashBlast. I find I get a similar "false eyelash" effect which I love, for a heck of a lot cheaper!
This product provides me the volume, lengthening and darkening that I love, without being too clumpy. I don't find any flaking, and the mascara doesn't feel too dry on my lashes. Lasts the whole day, and I fully recommend if you like that dramatic look!

Have recently been trying out a new Cargo bronzer. The colour is really pretty and has a nice golden shimmer/highlight in it.
I have a bit of trouble applying this bronzer as the colour is quite pigmented, so might be a bit challenging for the heavy handed.
It is a very pretty bronzer, although there is nothing that makes it stand out above the rest.
In terms of lastability - the bronzer seems to last for most of the day without reapplying.
You might be able to find a similar quality bronzer for less money, but if you are a Cargo fan, I would definitely recommend this bronzer.
