I use this cuticle oil on my nails when they are dry and cracked. I also use this after any gel nail applications that I do. It has tons of hydrating qualities in this oils such as Vitamin E, Jojoba Oil and Coconut Oil. It absorbs quite fast in the skin and nails and the hydration lasts all day. It does provide a really soft feel on my skin so I will mix a couple drops into my lotion and use it on my legs and body. Some cuticle oils I have used in the past are super greasy and this one soaks right into your skin and you don't have too worry about getting it all over the place with your fingers. @Sephora @deborahlippmann
I love that there is ZERO parabens, sulphites, not tested on animals, and it doesn't contain preservatives!! Now thats my kind of product!!
I buy this at Sephora for $24.00 and will last me a good year. I still have lots from last year that I still use.

Kellogg's Froot Loops

Who doesn't love the sugary goodness of fruit loops?? I have been eating this cereal since I was a little child and I still sneak a bowl or 2 just too get the sugar rush I need. lol... I mean its not the healthiest cereal in the world but it sure does the trick in keeping me satisified and the cravings will diminish after I eat this. I also just like taking handfuls out of the box and just to snack on them is my downfall. I do notice that the cereal now only contains 10grams of sugar, I remember years ago it was at 18grams of sugar.. So they are doing what they can too improve the sugar content. It does contain 3 grams of fibre and they do a great job in adding tons of vitamins in minerals in here. I do wish that one day they would use zero artificial colourings and slightly less sugar. They have turmeric extract in the fruit loops too create some color but the rest is artificial.
I can buy a family sized box at Superstore for 6.98$ a box. Not a bad price and I will probably buy again for my midnight cravings. lol

If your looking for a excellent UV light this is the light you need to purchase. I love doing my nails especially with Gelish Nail polish and I have never had issues with this lamp. I bought it probably 5 years ago and I use it every 3 months too redo my nails and the bulbs are still going strong. It has 4 programmable timers on here so you can select any time you need too do your nails and it will automatically shut off when its finished curing your nails. It also has an interior fan inside as well. It comes with 4 - 9 watt bulbs and the strength of the bulbs work very well and cures your fingers evenly in a short amount of time. It comes with a super long cord as well approximately 7 feet long. When I do my nails at the kitchen table I have no problems finding an outlet too plug my lamp in. CND also has excellent customer service. I had issues with my lamp when I bought it and they sent me a replacement within a week no questions asked. And ALL CND lamps come with a 1 year warranty, so if something happens you can exchange it for free. The lamp also fits my foot perfectly when Im doing gel on my toes and the opening is fairly large so you don't need to worry about pumping your fingers and having to re-do them again. I also really like how light this machine is. I can travel with it and bring it anywhere with zero issues. This lamp works well for any type of gel applications and acrylic.
I bought this unit for $150 online on the CND website and when the time comes I need to replace it I will purchase this one again.

I bought this shampoo for my husband because he has dandruff and a dry and itchy scalp. When he used it for about 2 weeks I noticed that he wasn't itchy his head that much and it worked very well in the dandruff dry flakes pieces of scalp that he would normally get. It has a nice smell. It has more of a masculine smell so its something that he does prefer too use over the fruity, flowery floral shampoos out there. Its a very nice clarifying shampoo as well. I use tons of products in my hair and when I need too get rid of the build up I will use the tea tree shampoo too get rid of the gunk in my hair. It lathers very well so you don't need too use a ton all at once.
You can buy this at your local salon for $20 a bottle.

mmmmm these little morsels are amazingly yummy!!!! I always grab a couple bags of these when they go on sale in the grocery store and I just can't stop eating them. They have a very salty yummy taste too them and they immediately melt in your mouth when you eat them. They do resemble a lot like Caesar dressing. You can also taste parmesan cheese too which makes it even yummier. They are shaped like peas but they aren't actually peas, just ground up peas with other ingredients.
They Snapea peas consist of 60% ground peas. They are also gluten free as well so its a perfect healthier option that most chips out there. They also contain 3 types of cheeses such as parmesan, romano cheese, and blue cheese!! They are also lower in calories at 120 per 22 pieces of the crisps and pack in a whopping 5 grams a protein as well. I do notice they do have a slight greasy feel too them when you eat it but it doesn't bother me as they taste amazing! I haven't tried the other flavours just because I am addicted too the Caeasr but I'm sure they would be just as good.
I buy these for 4.99$ at Co-op Grocery store

Love the smell of Grapefruit and having your skin looking radiant?? Look no further!! Yonka Pamplemousse is an energizing skin cream for your skin. It has the essences of Grapefruit, Orange peel, Lime, Lemons, Coconut, Lavender, Rosemary, Cypress and Thyme. A very nourishing and antioxidant formula for the skin that smells so good that you can almost eat it!!! I noticed my skin every time I use this how soft and hydrating my skin feels. You also get a nice dewy appearance in your skin when you apply it. You only need a tiny bit, if you use too much of the product on your skin it may look a tad on the greasy side so don't over do it. Less is always more.
Pamplemousse cream has a higher concentration of essential oils and citruses as this helps greatly tighten the pores and draws out the impurities in your skin. I do notice with this cream that within a couple weeks of using it your skin will start too break out. I only notice this for about a week or 2 as the skin is purging out all your impurities underneath the layers of skin. Don't be alarm, this should resolve in a couple weeks.
I buy this at a Yonka Distrubuting salon for 56.00$ a bottle but you can also purchase this online at Amazon for this same price but in the professional size which is double the quantity. @yonka

So today was my first time trying the Loreal mask. I had too get my hands on the Green Purifying mask as it seems everyone had nothing but great things too say. So I washed my skin and put a thin layer of the clay on my skin and within 30 seconds my skin burned....Not really sure why this would be as I don't have sensitive skin at all. But within 10 minutes the burning did go away. The smell of the clay was pretty strong, still not really sure on the reason of such a strong smell.. I did notice that it did a wonderful job on soaking up all the oils in my pores which I needed as I have oily/clogged pores around my nose area. After about 10 minutes I had too take it off as it felt really tight and uncomfortable. It washed off very well and left my skin smooth feeling but I immediately noticed that I had too put a moisturizer on afterwards as my skin felt super dry and tight feeling.
I bought this at Superstore for $10.99 and I don't think I will purchase again as I didn't really like the burning feeling and it didn't leave my skin feeling moisturized either...Oh and I just noticed it contains MethylParaben.....If I would have known this before purchasing I would have not bought this as parabens is something I'm strongly against.

Gelish is the ONLY nail polish that I will use on my toes that will last over 3 months until essentially my toe nails grow out. I have never had any issues with peeling, chipping, or discoloration problems ever. I hate always having too re-do my nail polish every week and with Gelish you do not have too worry about it at all. You do need too purchase a LED lamp or UV lamp in order for your polish too set properly. Its not a regular nail-polish. More so a gel polish that applies exactly like regular polish. You must apply thin coats in order for this too work and prep your nails properly too have them last a long time. I noticed with the colors that you only need too apply 2 coats of the nail polish too achieve the full effects of the color. No more is needed or it will get too thick and clumpy.
Gelish has over 100 colors too choose from ranging from shiny, sparkles, matte, bold, bright and even glow in the dark. The black matte polish is absolutely gorgeous!! They just came out with the Matt Top Coat so you need too buy this separately in order too get a matte look. Just make sure you buy the Top off and Foundation polishes as well when purchasing your colors. This will help everything set in place properly. I also recommend not using any type of lotions or oils a day or 2 before you use this or you may notice within a couple days some slight peeling. If you do just make sure you wash your hands with an oil free cleanser and buff your nail beds too reduce the oils in the nail. (I added a picture of my pink toes and its called "Tag your it".) Perfect beach time summer color. @Gelish
You can purchase this at Cosmo Prof for 17.99$ a bottle. Yes slightly expensive but they don't expire for 3 years so you defiently get your money worth in this product.

I received a sample in the mail last spring and tried it on my sore, stiff neck muscles. It glided with ease on my skin and did NOT leave a sticky residue like most rub on creams tend too do. I had immediate relief of my tension in my neck and notice that my shoulders weren't as sore when using it. It leaves a cool sensation on your skin and it does not irritate it either. You should only apply this cream no more than 4 times a day because if you do I do notice that my skin will get very very itchy.
It doesn't have a strong menthol smell. Almost scent-free which is perfect if your going in public.
It is on the expensive side at 12.99$ a tube and can last about a month with regular use.

This perfume brings me back too my high school years....This was the one I had used all though grade 10-12 over 10 years ago and I still would recognize the smell when I pass someone in the mall. It has a beautiful scent of Lychee, Quince & Kiwi, middle notes of Cupcake, Jasmine & White Chocolate Orchid with a Musk, Orris Root & Sensual Woods fragrance. It has a lovely sweet smell that keeps you wanting too spray it all on day long. Its not overwhelming or powerful as I'm pretty sensitive too strong smells and it never did bother me.
I absolutely admire the bottle it comes in. A bright pink, jeweled glass bottle and its has some weight too it. It looks beautiful sitting there on your dresser. I even had fun collecting all the other Britney Spear Fragrances just because the bottles looked so cute and pretty. They add sparkling diamonds on the bottle as well which adds a cute finishing touch.
You can buy this anywhere still...Im so surprised to see it still selling in stores as its been almost 12 years ago since I bought this bottle. I believe Britney released this fragrance in 2005. But Walmart and Sears is the place you can purchase this still. When I run out of perfume I think I may just re-live my high school memories and get this again.
