I received the Loreal Collagen filler through the product review club and also received some to share with friends! Upon inital application I noticed that my lips tingled slightly, they did 'plump up' but they also became very dry! I tried this a couple of times then got sick of having dry lips throughout the day (which was not a problem until I started to use the product)! The two step process was a bit annoying as well, I'd prefer a collagen filler that I just needed to apply in one step...I know two steps isn't a big deal but when you've already got a cleansing processing adding in another two steps is alot when you're rushing to get to work! I'd stay away from this if you want to keep your lips hydrated! I'll hold out for something better! -

I received Dove Ultimate Supreme Visibly Smooth through the product review club and have been using it for the last couple of weeks. I have found the floral scent to be nice and not too overpowering it's definitely easy on the nostrils! It claims to reduce underarm hair but I haven't seen any change in the growth of my hair! It does keep my underarm area smooth but not because of lack of hair! I'd purchase it again because the smell stays on through a long 10 hr work day but would pass if I was looking for something that really reduced undearm hair! -

My friends and I went to Mirage last weekend for a Christmas get together! We arrived around 12:30 in the afternoon and received great service from the get go! Our waitress was attentive and engaging! While I ordered breakfast some of the other girls ordered roast beef sandwiches, salads, chicken wraps, soup and other items I can't recall! All of the food items were presented nicely, portion size was just right, food quality 100% satisfactory! Everyone at the table was interested and 'drooling' over what everyone else was having! I would love to go back and WILL go back just so I could try their roast beef sandwich! A friend of mine mentioned she passed there at night and the place was packed! I'd love to go there for drinks with the girls after work as I'm sure the service and quality will be just the same! And next time I'll be sure to try the desserts.....there were so many yummy items to choose from! -

I received Vaseline Sheer Infusion as part of the product review club! Loved the box it came in and the fact that there were two! The Vaseline bottles I received were a 'citrusy' scent- not too heavy and really when I have it on I wouldn't bother to use perfume! It does absorb easily into the skin but so do other Vaseline products and numerous others that are currently on the market. Sheer Infusion is fine but I probably wouldn't dole out the money for this one ($10.49 @ Shoppers)! There are products out there that are cheaper and in my opinion moisturize just as well if not better! -

My friends and I went to Verdi and received HORRIBLE service! We were a group of 7 and upon entering the restaurant found the place empty-yeah quick service. WRONG! We waiting for 20 minutes for our waiter to approach us with menus he took our drink orders returned with them and then we proceeded to wait another 30 minutes for him to come and take our order (by this point 2 other couples had entered). Everyone was hungry and frustrated, we kept asking the waiter when our orders would arrive and he just said there were other customers waiting as well! The place was not packed with people so this excuse didn't jive with us at all. After waiting for almost an hour we picked up our things and walked out the restaurant, we told the waiter we were leaving and he didn't even attempt to stop us. Later that night my friend called and explained the situation to the manager, he offerd to give us 10% discount if we came back. A measly 10% was not enough for my friends and I to return to this place again! There are plenty of other restaurants along Bayview Avenue that offer great service, Verdi would just be a waste of your time! -

I received CoverGirl Lashblast Length Mascara in the mail last week and have been using it daily! Previously I only used Clinique or Maybelline on my lashes! What I liked about CoverGirl Lashblast was the fact that upon application there were no clumps AND when it was time to take off the mascara I didn't have to deal with smudges and repeat washing to get it off! Did it make my lashes longer? YES! I love how natural it looks on my lashes and how it really 'opens up' my eyes! Mascara is another product that I'm willing to spend $15 plus on but now that I've tried Covergirl Lashblast and had such great results I'll be using this in the future. It gives me a much more natural look than the other products I've used and that's why I like it so much. I prefer natural looking lashes as opposed to the ones that are so obviously caked with mascara and you can't beat the price for under $10 dollars! -

I have been using this product for a little over a week now and I LOVE IT! I'm 30yrs old and while I don't have eye wrinkles (very very very slight ones when I smile) I have been waking up in the past few months with puffy eyes and dark circles! Very frustrating especially since I'm someone who gets a great night of sleep! Like Daisy in the previous review I have sensitive skin so I have to be mindful of products I use on my skin. This product goes on smoothly and instead of rubbing in the cream I did the recommended tapping along the eye area. I was very pleased the first morning when I didn't have a reaction but my puffy eyes were still there. I have been using the product religiously day and night and finally after day 5 realized that the area around my eye was brighter AND the puffiness was gone! I didn't change my diet and I didn't get more sleep then usual so all the credit goes to Marcelle 1st Wrinkles Eye Cream! I have to tell you I'm someone who is willing to spend $60 dollars and up on products for my face and I have purchased eye cream in the past that was significantly more expensive than Marcelle for the eye area. Never again! Why would I spend so much money when I can purchase Marcelle 1st Wrinkles Eye Cream for $27 dollars? I will be purchasing more once I go through this cream, it's an essential part of my night and morning beauty regime! Ladies go out there purchase this cream and give it a chance, it won't happen overnight but in a few days you WILL see results! -

I have to agree this is definitely a horrible gym! When I first moved to Toronto I joined and while at first they seemed 'great' I quickly realized it was just a move to convince you to join! I'm someone who enjoys taking classes at the gym BUT many of the instructors were inexperienced! AND if you were able to come across a great instructor you can be assured she wouldn't be lasting long! The turnover at Fitness One is ridiculous! I think the regional manager and some staff would get jealous when they came across a great instructor because members would be begging for more classes...the next thing you know the instructor 'doesn't work there anymore' ! The monthly fee (I paid roughly $25) should definitely have been somewhat of a warning sign for me that and the fact that it was located in the basement of a shopping centre, and the rugs would be soaking wet and smelly after a rain storm! The closest location to me at the gym was Victoria Park and York Mills...I've learned from my mistake and now am a proud member of Goodlife Fitness..LOVE LOVE LOVE Goodlife! -

I received this product roughly a week ago through the product review club. I thought the packaging in addition to the Loofah was a nice touch! My family has always used Dove bar soap and this is something that has stuck with me as I now live away from home! I have to say the Dove Deep Moisture Nourishing Body Wash does not disappoint! I love the light fragrance by no means is the scent overpowering! I found my legs to be quite dry the past couple of weeks but after using Dove Nourishing my legs are no longer dry, in fact I was somewhat panicking as my moisturizer was not cutting it lately! Once I added the body wash to my morning/night shower regime the change was wonderful! I would definitely recommend this product to consumers-Dove has done it again with a great product that doesn't leave you with that 'sticky, dry' feeling you get with other soap products! -

I received a free coupon for this product via mail. Gave them a try last week and was definitely impressed! I thought they were great at absorbing wetness, comfortable and stayed put where other brands don't excel in these departments. I don't know what the trick is with always I know the pad itself looks different then others I've used which I'm guessing has to do with why it is so much better at absorbing and making you feel 'fresh' longer! -
