I have tried MILLIONS of liquid liners and I always come back to this one. The tip is hard so I’m actually able to make a winged line without creating a mess. The only downside is I find it dries a bit fast once you open it. But other than that, it’s the only liquid liner I can use and that I’m satisfied with. -

I received this sample a couple of months ago, but haven’t had the chance to try it sooner! Since I’m in LOVE with the CeraVe moisturizer, I thought it was time I try the night cream. First thought? I don’t like the texture. It’s thick. Almost feels like a mask. I was hoping for a softer approach. Yes, my skin felt great the next morning, but the texture kills it for me. P.S. For those of you who don’t like fragrances in your creams, you’re in good luck! -

I'm always on the look out for the perfect shade who will match my skin tone throughout the whole year. I think NYX has some really nice products and their lipstick have good formula. I have to admit, I'm a huge fan of matte lipstick so I'm always reluctant to use creamy ones. I hate having to reapply lipstick constantly during the day. I know I know, I can always make it matte with some powder, but the look is not the same.
I'd say I love to wear that lipstick during the Winter...aka when my skin isn't tanned. Otherwise, I think it's too much of a bright pink ( it's very pigmented, which is not a bad thing per say) not to look like Barbie! Even then, I found myself contouring and shading my lips with NYC City Proof Matte (in "Riverside Ruby") to tone it down a little.
But I love the texture. It's smooth, it's creamy and it's nice to apply. Not my go to pinkish shade to wear, but I like to keep it close juste in case I need some sunshine in my day.

Bath and body works winter candy apple body lotion

Very nice body cream. Usually, I prefer medically approved lotions to moisturize my skin during Winter time. On the other hand, I do also love to smell good and I’m a die hard “Bath and Body Works” fan! So I moisturize at first and then apply this Shea butter, Cocoa butter and Aloe cream! Smells wonderful with hint of apple, rose petals and orange. It’s very soft and absorbs quickly (one of my main criteria when looking at body lotion). -
Schick Hydro® 5 razor

I used it to shave my legs and, although I love the weight of it and the smoothness of the blades on my skin… I don’t think its purpose is to shave long legs. I got the feeling that you could use it, let’s say, to shave your arm pits or your bikini line for example. Small patches of hair. Don’t get me wrong, it does an amazing job in getting rid of unwanted hair. I just feel like maybe it’s the angle of the blades that give that effect. Still, no cuts and super smooth legs so can’t really complain about the minor stuff! -
e.l.f. Cosmetics Zit Zapper
I’m gonna be honest, I’ve had acne for most of my teen years and there is no such thing as a miracle roll on tube. Still it was 1$ so what’s the worst that could happen? Lose 1$? I could live with that. So I bought it and, without any... +
I’m gonna be honest, I’ve had acne for most of my teen years and there is no such thing as a miracle roll on tube. Still it was 1$ so what’s the worst that could happen? Lose 1$? I could live with that. So I bought it and, without any surprises, I had a spot to try it on right away. It stings a little at first. Like if you put alcohol on a wound, but not as bad. Very surprised to find, the next morning, that my spot had diminished in size. NO MIRACLE ERASER HERE. But none the less, my spot was way smaller than the night before. I was impressed. It’s small (so you can carry it anywhere), it’s practical for those hateful pimples that come right before an important event and it doesn’t have a strong smell. You can rub it during the day and no one will go “ EW. What is that smell?”. Go buy one and cherish it. -
Rimmel London Stay Matte Liquid Lip Colour
It doesn’t dry and tear my lips apart! Good start. It’s easy to apply and the color is rich enough, I love it. It also dries nicely. On the down side, it doesn’t hold as much as I would I love to. I do have to re apply layers during the day... +
It doesn’t dry and tear my lips apart! Good start. It’s easy to apply and the color is rich enough, I love it. It also dries nicely.
On the down side, it doesn’t hold as much as I would I love to. I do have to re apply layers during the day (after lunch, for example). That being said, some matte lipstick also don’t hold all day long but because they chap my lips, it’s tough to re apply. Not that one. Gone? Re apply without any issues.

My skin tends to hate me during the harsh Canadian winter. I have dry skin and the freezing air just kills me. I was looking for a more «medically» oriented cream. One without smell, that my skin would absorb quickly before I could apply my makeup in the morning. The lady at the pharmacy recommended this one and I haven’t stop using it since then! I sometimes have time to reapply another layer before my foundation. I swear, my skin DRINKS it. It’s super soft and light and although it has not made my skin radiant overnight (let’s be real 2 seconds. I need more than a good cream for that!), it has improved greatly.
I know people using other products from their range and I have heard good things about them. I would surely try them in the future!

When I was younger, Victoria secret used to do a makeup line that would sell at « La Senza ». I LOVED their mint lip gloss. It would give you a fresh breath (or thought so!) and just a touch of shine ! I looked for that gloss e-v-e-r-y-w-h-e-r-e since then. Until... I found its spinoff version at Bath and Body Works! What. A. Joy. Same fresh minty effect ! Plus it doesn’t fall too heavy on the lip. Perfect for a natural look or to add some shine to your own lipstick! Would buy over and over again as an essential in my makeup bag! -

First of all, LOVE the format. Goes lovely in a purse, even a small one so it’s easy to get a quick fix during the day if you ever need to! It also smells good!
On the down side, I find the texture to falls heavy on my thin hair. Plus it leaves white « dust » on so you have to be careful to wave it off before leaving the house!
