I picked up this dry shampoo after trying the original a long time ago and I absolutely love how it lightens up my hair and makes it look nice a bouncy instead of that thick dirty look after the gym. It has a great floral scent that masks any unfreshness. This is perfect for mornings when I accidentally hit the snooze or after a stint at the gym. Batiste is my go-to brand for dry shampoo, even my hair stylist prefers this brand over any others. -

I got the Simple Cleansing Miceller Water in a value pack for Christmas and was thinking it would be like a toner (which isn't something I add to my cleaning routine for being too harsh on my skin) but it is simply the best cleaning product out there. It is unscented and soap free and leaves my skin feeling really clean but not dried out. I've noticed in the last week that I haven't gotten any pimples (it sometimes happens during a certain time of month) and my skin just looks fresh and glowy. -

I find these wipes to be the best out of any that I have tried. They have just the right amount moisture where I'm not having to scrub too hard to get the makeup off but not too wet where it leaves my skin soaked. I love how it doesn't have any strong smells or perfumes as sometimes scents really bother my eyes and can irritate skin. I also find that the Simple brand is cheaper than the other brands which is nice if you are on a budget.
Great to keep in your purse or I your gym bag for quick and effective makeup removal.

I picked up Pacifica eye shadow in Treasue and it blew my mind! I love to try vegan and cruelty free products as often as I can and I saw this pretty bronze colour on sale and had to try. I'm so glad I did because it is now my fave shadow. I wear it every day to work and even when I dress up for a night on the town. It's so creamy from being made from coconut oil and doesn't crease or rub off. It lasts all day and isn't too shimmery but definitely stands out underneath my glasses.
I now stock up whenever there is sales as I can't live without it!

I tried this foundation with reluctance as I have been using CoverGirl Advanced Radiance for the past few years and loving it but I have now fallen in love with Trublend! It came out very white and I was nervous but once I applied it matched my skin tone perfectly. It is very lightweight and non greasy. It feels like I'm not even wearing foundation.
The only downside is I wish it came with an spf formula. I try to wear as much spf daily as I can to minimize any sun damage.

I received this product complimentary from ChickAdvisor for testing/review purposes.
This by far is the greatest new invention in my life since sliced bread!
I tend to buy my pants a little longer as I fear that they will shrink as soon as the go anywhere near my washer. The Scotch Essentials Adjustable Hem Tape is absolutely the best for my quick fix hem situations when I'm wearing flats and my pant legs are just a tad too long (nothing looks more unprofessional than worn raggedy pant legs in a work presentation). I was so pleased with how easy the strips were to use and there are so many in the pack! I was so happy that I shared a few with my colleagues in a "you gotta try this!!" bout of excitement!
Thanks chickadvisor!

I recieved this product for review form ChickAdvisor.
I popped a button on my fave blouse quite a while ago and just haven't had the time nor patience to see it back on. This Easy Fix Button kit was the perfect tool for me to pull out my garment for a nice evening out this weekend. I found the kit extremely easy to use. Way easier than trying to sew it on.
The only downside is that this isnt a full fix to the problem. It definitly isn't best for sheer or silk garments since it'll hang heavy in that spot. However, this is great to keep in your desk for emergency moments before a week meeting or client event.

I received the Scotch Essentials Permanent Hem Bonding Strips from ChickAdvisor and I absolutely love it!
I racently caught my heel on the hem on my fave work pants and have been making due with staples holding it together as I'm terrible with a sewing kit. I was ecstatic to try this on my fave pants and am shocked at how well it's holding.
The bonding is keeping the hem even after being thrown in the wash. The only downside is that it's hard to get the tape straight as its extremly sticky. When I try to peel the backing off it pulls on the places I accidently touched. Thank goodness dark clothes are forgiving of flaws. I do recommend help from another person to hold the garment in place in order to keep everything straight and no folds happen with the tape.

I received the dry shampoo yesterday (thanks Chickadvisor!) and I absolutely love it!
I use dry shampoo a lot lately since I started colouring my hair light blonde. It's made my hair really fragile so I don't wash it every day to preserve the natural oils.
Since I go to the gym every night I use this dry shampoo and it perks my hair right up and it smells really light and fresh. I love it!

I received a sample of this serum and tried it for the first time this week. After washing my makeup off for the evening I applied a light layer of the serum all over my face and immediately my skin felt tighter and smooth.
It's been very cold and dry where I live and even though I try to moisturize nightly, I still wake up with flakey, itchy skin.
The first morning after using this serum my skin looked nice and bright. I noticed that any fine lines I had were barely visible and my skin wasn't flakey at all! It was lovely. Definitely a night cream and not to be worn underneath your daily makeup though.
It's definitely pricey but worth every penny.
