I adore this Minimizing Exfoliator - in fact, it is my absolute favourite scrub -- unfortunately I haven't been able to find it anywhere lately!
In terms of the product, its micro-fine and leaves your skin feeling baby soft after every time you use it. I got tons of complements when I used this product, including that it made my skin glow and that my skin was super silky and smooth.
If anyone knows where I can find some - please help a girl out! Miss thiss sooooo much!

I received this product as part of the Product Review Club for Chick Advisor.
I was excited to try these out because the last time I used white strips was about 5 years ago and I found the product messy and annoying to use.
These, however, were easy to apply and thanks to the advanced seal. stayed on really well without any funky taste in my mouth.
HOWEVER, I only made it one day with these things, as after using them for only 30 minutes on day 1, I woke up to excrutiating pain (worse than when I had braces) and I couldn't stand it. It lasted a full 8 hours -- I couldn't make myself put them on again.
That being said, I read through the instructions, and because these were the highest level of intensity, they do warn you they will most likely cause sensitivity.
I wish I could have handled these for longer, but I am a bit of baby when it comes to teeth pain (I can't stand any kind of teeth related pain)...
For tough chicks who don't experience sensitivity, these may be for you. I didn't think I had sensitive teeth, but maybe I do. But if you are concerned about having painful teeth and gums, then please don't use. its not worth it for a brighter smile.

Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry Touch Sunblock SPF 55

Im a pretty big advocate for this sunscreen. I found it incredibly protective when I went to Mexico! I didn't burn at all (I also tried to keep my face covered, but still!). The only thing I do find is that it sweats off pretty easily and comes off in little white patches. I use an every day SPF cream by Clinique on a regular basis, but this is my go to when I know I will be outside in the sun for the day. I love its staying power and how non-greasy it is.
A definite go to for summer.

I just started using this tinted SPF about a week ago and so far I love it. It gives my skin a little bit of glow so that I don't look completely pale. It can also be used as a primer. So far I have found it goes on easily and blends in perfectly, not feeling cakey or streaky. My only real complaint is it comes out of the tube slightly separated. I even shake the tube first to try and avoid this. However, once I blend it a little it goes on great. The tint also does not transfer which is great - i dont have to worry about touching my face once its on. So far I feel well protected and it hasn't caused my skin to break out. I have been told its especially great on sensitive skin. -

This lip balm is pretty unique. It was given to me as a gift in Baby Pink Mint and I actually didn't like it at first. However, the more I use it the more I like it. It has a minty effect which leaves your breath smelling clean and also gives your lips a bit of tingle. The colour is also quite lovely and neutral so it goes on giving you just a hint of something. It applies easily and stays on fairly well. It doesn't smudge off like many lipsticks do. I like swiping this on when I just want a hint of colour. It is also packed with vitamins, minerals, and gogi berry - so for those of you out there looking for a lip gloss that is good for your lips, this is a good one. It also feels really moisturizing. Give it a try chicks!! -

I bought this gloss for a formal event because I didn't have anything else like it in my make up bag. I was unimpressed with the staying power, as it really only lasted about an hour. It was also sticky and came off really easily on anything I drank or ate. I also found it didn't give any colour. I purchased the Stay My Rose colour and found it was more like a clear gloss than anything else. Won't be buying this one again. -

I love the colours of these glosses - who doesn't? However, this is not the gloss you should wear on a date as it is super sticky and uncomfortable. It has good staying power though, so as long as there isnt a windstorm blowing your hair into your face, and your not looking to plant a few smackeroos on your date, then this is beautiful for a night out. Maybe a girls night out? -

This is located in Mississauga, ON near Square One, just off of Burnhamthorpe. And let me tell you - the food here is delicious. Set up in a funky brick building off the main street, this restaurant has more of a club vibe (think Moxie's or Earl's style waitresses), but the rooftop patio is very relaxed and easy going. We went for my boyfriend's birthday and just loved the food and drinks. The white sangria was delicious (strong too!) and the dessert is huge. Desserts cost $9.00 but are well worth the money. We ordered the chocolate brownie and we could have shared it with another couple. It was ginormous. As for the food, my boyfriend got the salmon and loved it, and I got the Jerk Tenderloin open faced sandwich... SO GOOD. All I'm saying is... TRY THIS PLACE. So SO SO good. -

I received these Radiant Pearl Tampons as part of the chick advisor review club. Typically, I am a Playtex tampon user because they are virtually leak proof and have always worked well for me. I also like their plastic applicator. So when I opened up this box of Tampax I was really impressed with the plastic applicator and the resealable packaging. I also didn't have an issue with leaking and found them incredibly comfortable. I think I would buy these again - the resealable packaging is discreet and helpful. Definitely worth a try! -

I received these Liners as part of the Chick Advisor Product Review Club. These are exactly as they are titled - incredibly thin, which I was originally worried about as I tend to use the regular Always liners which are a little thicker and fairly absorbent. However, these impressed me - they were very absorbent for their size, and were barely noticeable while I had them on. They also fit to different styles of underwear - so if you want a little extra protection while you are wearing a sexy pair of undies, these are definitely for you. I would certainly buy these again - they would also be a great every day liner if you just like to have something there. -
