Received it as my birthday gift in 2016 from Sephora in the shade Kiss Kiss Bang Bang. I really liked the formula, it was easy to apply, and went on smooth and buttery. I like the colour because it was really neutral and not something out of my comfort zone, and I can use it as an every day lip colour that looks almost natural on me (gives my lips a bit of a tint if anything, which I kind of like). Not the most long lasting lipstick that I've tried, but it goes on semi matte and it feels almost moisturizing -- I never need to worry about the lipstick making my lips look cracked or patchy after a couple hours of wear. I really enjoyed this particular lipstick! -

A little disappointed because I've heard such great reviews about this highlighter. It's beautiful when swatched, but unfortunately it's a bit dark on me because I'm really pale. How noticeable it is on your skin once applied depends on how you apply it. I have some brushes that don't do much, and others where it makes the product goes on really well. However, I find once applied on me it goes on a bit too dark. I'm so pale that I can use it as either a bronzer or highlighter depending on how I apply it. -

I got a free box in the mail from Sampler to try and I was really impressed. It has a stronger flavour than the Donut House variety pack that I normal buy which I loved. And their K-cups are being made with 100% compostable material now (make sure you're grabbing the right box that states this if you're Eco-friendly!). Why did we have to wait for McDonalds of all companies to start doing that? More companies should be making their k-cups compostable like McDonald's and follow in their footsteps! My only downfall is because of the cups being compostable, they come in a bag to keep them fresh. I can't really store them in my carousel if I want them to retain their freshness. -

I first got little samples of this with my Naked3 and Naked2 palettes. A little goes a long way, and it helps my eyeshadow stay in place all day long without wear. I loved it so much that I bought the 5ml version (the mini size) for $16 CAD at Sephora and the tiny thing lasted me about a year (I don't always wear eyeshadow, but definitely most days). I think the newer packaging comes with a wand now, so I can't give my thoughts on the application with that. Mine was from before when it was a tiny little nozzle and I would just apply with my fingers. It's $26 for the larger size which I think is worth it if you wear eyeshadow daily, have oily lids, and need something that lasts all day. -

This will not quite "dry your nails in seconds", but rather what it does is act as a barrier between your nails and things that it may come into contact with. It definitely helps speed up the drying time of your nails a bit, and helps deflect things from creating dents. Don't go smashing your nails into things though, it won't fully dry underneath that barrier for a bit, but let's say you accidentally brush your hair back with your hand after applying this and you're afraid you've just ruined your mani and have gotten nail polish in your hair -- nah, this product has your back! However, cuticle oil essentially does the same thing, but this is just as good if you don't have cuticle oil laying around. It's really decent for it's price too. I think it was about $2.99 at my local Shoppers Drugmart. -

Received this as a sample in the mail in the colour "light". Finding products that match the colour of my eyebrows has always been a challenge for me, as I have really light brows. Most products that are marketed for blonde brows apply a bit orangey, which just looks unnatural and stupid on me. It's hard to find an light brown or taupe shade that looks natural and applies nicely. This product is excellent, as it requires minimal effort to apply and matches my blonde brows perfectly. I don't have to draw and shape my brows when using this product - all I really aim for is a natural darkness to make them look fuller and less... nonexistent. It also combs your brow hair and helps shape it in addition to colouring them in. This product does the trick and it exceeded my expectations. I'd give it 5 stars, but the price tag is $30 CAD which is a bit hefty for me. However, I've been using my little mini sample for over a month and it still has a lot of uses left in it so I bet this product goes a long way with one bottle. I'm probably going to save my Optimum points at Shoppers for this one because it really is a terrific brow product. -

Fun fact: did you know that Canadians consume more than 55% more KD than Americans? KD is pretty much a childhood food staple for us up North. It's amazing, simple to make, and full of cheesy goodness. I usually choose to make mine without the butter, and sometimes skimp on the milk depending on how I feel. My cupboard is never without at least one box incase I need a quick fix for dinner. -

I got a free coupon to try this stuff and it exceeded my expectations! It tastes just like normal whipped cream but with a hint of coconut. Tastes kind of like coconut cream pie. It's also lactose free, dairy free, gluten free and cholesterol free which is awesome. I've been adding it to my mochas as well as just eating it straight from the can. Would recommend for anyone who has a dairy free diet! -

Otrivin Cold and Allergy Nasal Spray
My go to whenever I have a stuffy nose. Great for cold and allergy season. Just blow your nose before inhaling this, otherwise you're blowing out all the medicine right after. Clears my nose up within a half hour.
