I’m a big fan of Vichy. This is the first time I’ve tried the neoviadiol. I loved it as a night cream. I found it lasted all night so I wake up with moisturizer skin. I did not like it in the day time because it felt like to much with sunscreen and foundation on top - that felt like I was caked on with product and I broke out after one day. As with all Vichy products I find the light scent is clean and not chemical. I also really love the glass jar. It feels like I’m using a special product as a treat for me! -
Vichy Neovadiol GF Compensating Complex Contour Gel for Eyes & Lips

This is perfect texture for applying around eyes and lips. Love that the product is meant for both problem areas - one product two problem areas. I like the light scent - it smells clean! The cream stays in place and doesn’t leak or look greasy after application. The application is a little awkward for me so I just use my finger tip to spread the cream. -

I received my first sample of this in an advent calendar. I only used it because I got a small bottle of and it was perfect for a trip to the gym. This stuff is incredible - your skin doesn't feel tight and dry after but it also doesn't feel oily. Love the smell. Wish it wasn't so expensive but everything at l'Occitane is. -

Years of problems with my scalp and I always use Selsun shampoo as my go to solution. I hate the tar smell, hate the look of the bottle on my tub ledge...but I always make sure I have a bottle ready to go for when I need. Thankfully I don't need to use it everytime I shampoo but I do need to use it a few times a month. I do leave it on for several minutes and don't use a conditioner after. I find it helps my scalp and decreases the itching/dryness that plagues me occassionally especially when my life is stressing me - interestingly that is when my scalp worsens - just wish the stuff smelled better! -
QUO Nail Polish Remover- Regular
Can't figure out why or how Quo can charge more for a nail polish remover that seems just like the cheaper brands I can buy at Giant Tiger or even the dollar store! I do like the purple color...but otherwise it feels like, smells like and works... +

I've had sensitive teeth for years - some times it gets unbearable and then sometimes it is ok for awhile so I forget I have a problem. I have tried most of the brands available at my local pharmacy because I find Sensidyne a little expensive and figure other brands should/must be similar but frankly I always end up back with Sensidyne on my vanity! It is the only toothpaste that seems to provide some protection between brushing. -

The first time I tried this product was when I received it as part of a Mother's Day bundle. To present my favorite night oil was Lancome expense little capsules. The Body Shop has come up with a similar product at a fraction of the price. The oil absorbs quickly. It has a nice light scent that is more earthy than perfume. I've since bought two more bottles and love to put it on my face and neck area (and as a bonus I massage it into my hands after applying to my face.) Love how my skin feels and looks after applying. -

A nice product to have around if you color your hair. The effect was very natural looking. It wasn’t a perfect match to my color but lightened the so obvious color line that I managed to feel better about my delay in redoing my hair. I didn’t like the smell and felt self conscious that I smelled like rubbing alcohol....but no one said anything so maybe it was just me. Will definately keep a bottle around to do fix ups between colourings. -

4 muffins for $4.99 at metro makes these a decent price. I also bought the chocolate chip oatmeal and my daughter definately preferred those to the Fruit and Fibrr. Frankly if the box just said fruit it might have been more appealing for kids. Love how they are individually packaged! So easy to grab as we run out the house. I received these free from Chick Advisor campaign but will definately be buying these again. Delicious and really appreciate the simple ingredients. -
Good & Simple Cranberry Orange + Flax Bars

Took awhile to find them at Metro but finally did in the produce section. They are delicious and at only 150 calories they are perfect treats. We had them for desert today. Cost at metro is $4.99 so hard sell when the bakery cookies are on sale for $3.99! But I feel way less guilty eating these and since they are individually packaged I wouldn't eat six of them like I would cookies. These would be fantastic to pack on the go. -
