It was so pretty!! Made me want to paint myself blue and run naked in the forest.

Neutrogena Wave Power-Cleanser and Deep Clean Foaming Pads
Not bad, Neutrogena! I really like how it feels against my skin, pretty massaging. I use this little guy everytime i'm out of time/on the go, and don't have enough space for a bottle of cleanser. I like that when i take off the pad, you see... +

I like that when i take off the pad, you see all the makeup that you forgot to take off with a makeup remover!

I'm not a huge mascara user, but I have to say, this mascara works pretty well...I'ts better than the higher-end mascaras I've bought, and definitely lasts longer.
I DO get the appearance of fuller lashes, but it doesn't seem to hold my curl very well? then againn, my lashes are very long, and very straight. For that reason, they do not curl at all.
In the end, I purchase this mascara all the time, and love it to bits. It seems to be the only one that makes my lashes appear fuller, and doesn't smudge at all!
I even apply it to my lower lashes, and have noticed that I dont get raccoon eyes, unlike other products that I've used.
Definitely definitely recommend it for all those ladies out there who smudge easily!

I purchased this eyeliner one day in the purple colour, when I was out of town and forgot my regular Bobbi Brown gel liner at home.
I purchased this on a whim, thinking "ooh, purple colour, it looks dark and nice"
nope nope nope!
I found this gel to lack pigmentation, and when I applied it onto my lids, it took several layers until you could see the purple line.
This product also smudges easily and I get the feeling that it's more of a fluid than a gel when ti goes on my lids.
I did love the brush however, and have been using it for my Bobbi Brown gel liner...it's very smooth, and since I love light, thin brushes, i fell in love with it immediately.
All in all, i would say the price was worth it (for the brush)
i may want to use this liner as a gel eyeshadow one day, and kind of smudge it all over my lids. Since I have no crease on my eyelid, I don't think i'll have to worry about it creasing or falling apart later on in the day.

Having never tried a Clarins product before, I picked up this little guy with a little suspicion. Should i trust it? Does anybody else like it?
When I spritzed it around the air, and took a big whiff, the first thought was "ah. SUMMER"
This scent is perfect for summer! Especially since the weather seems to be warming up, the perfume has this nice fruity and flowery tone that isn't overpowering like some others I've smelled before. However, I wouldn't recommend this for Winter, as the smell just doesn't fit right with it. Nor would it be perfect for fall either.
Like all perfumes, be sure not to spray on more than 1-2 spritzes, as it will overpower your entire self and send people walking the other way.
There's this little after tone of a woody scent I get sometimes, which makes the perfume last when on my body. I think it adds substance to the perfume, which makes me love it so much more and differentiates itself from the summery body mists.
I'd definitely purchase this again! ...once I get through those 100 mL that is.
In conclusion though, I think this scent is perfect for younger women, between 20-30!

This pencil is probably one of the better eyeliner pencils i've ever used.
It's kind of expensive, for just a small pencil, but a little goes a long way.
What i loved about this product is that the colour stays. You can see it a mile away, and it's boldness makes it perfect for a night out!
I also like the look of the pencil, which is cute and has a nice silver cap to go along with it
However, i did find some issues with the pencil...which include:
expensive
didn't sharpen well - kept breaking off
a little smudging, undereye only
loses sharpness easily
too much shimmer
All in all, Since I have extremely bad luck when it comes to purchasing pencil eyeliners that don't smudge the botom eye, I've come to the conclusion that this eyeliner is the "best in a bad situation" kind of deal.
I will be purchasing this again, since I do use pencil eyeliners a fair bit.

I love love LOVE this makeup remover! I've tried many other products, and even tried switching to the more expensive brands, but somehow I always come to this one. It's relatively cheap, but works wonders! I always get all my makeup off ,and sometimes when i get it in my eye, it doesn't get irritated like some other makeup removing products do.
My biggest love for this product is the fact that i only need one swipe of the product over my lids, and all the makeup comes out! I don't get those dark circles after washing my face!
However, despite it saying "oil-free" on the front label, I do not completel ybelieve this. My lids sometimes feel a little oily after application, and even after wiping it off. I usually ahve to use facewash and water to take out all the oil. However, it's done better for my lids, which look more hydrated than before!
All in all, the price, the feel, and the purpose has given it's final verdict: AMAZING.

Sushi on Bloor
When I last went to Sushi on Bloor, the waitress greeted me so nicely, and we had a really good talk over the menu and sushi places around the area! I love this restaurant to bits, and think the food is exactly what i paid for.

I have just started using this product recently, and I have to say, it's one of the best foundations I've ever used!
Normally, foundation would make my skin look flaky, and dried out, but this one actually illuminates everything, and my pores look visibly smaller!
coverage is only medium, but enough so that it doesn't show flakiness around my acne
the colour match is off the hook. I've never had a foundation where its tone perfectly matches my own!
Normally, the price I would pay for coverage on my face ranges from 15-25. This price of $35 was a litle too much for me, but I'm starting to realize that since it's for the face, high-end products are a must!

I have a very mixed feeling about this product...and when I am not sure about a product, I'm usually hesitant to click "recommend"
First of all, the product DID work...my skin was visibly smoother, and foundation just glided right on, without making my skin appear dry!
It also didn't have a strong scent to it, which I think is essential for makeup bases, as with all the smells coming from all your makeup, you don't want yet ANOTHER scent emanating from you!
The price was slightly higher than expected, approximately 17.99, but I received a free redness primer along with it as a package.
However, my biggest problem with this product that will probably prevent me from purchasing it again is the fact that it made me break out all over my chin. I am very particular about acne.
On a side note, I do have very sensitive skin, that is also dry.
All in all, though this product did not do well for sensitive skin,
it really helped with controlling the flakiness that happens from dry skin.
