I received this as a part of the product review club and loved it. I have used other body shop products before, but never this one.
This cream has a very rich texture which is perfect for dry spots such as elbows, knees and hands during the cold and dry winter months. It is not too greasy either which is always a plus. The fragrance is gentle so it won't clash with any other perfumes or products. I noticed a difference in my chapped hands after about 5 days of using this at night.
Overall I would recommend this product. It's a great gift for a friend , or for yourself!

Marcelle Essentials 1st Wrinkles Eye Contour Cream

I was sent this eye cream as part of the product review club. I only have a few fine lines around the eye area from smiling and don't have real crow's feet yet.
I normally find eye creams too heavy for the delicate eye area but this one went on really smooth and felt luxurious.
I don't know yet if it will make a real difference or not but I feel confident that I am using a product to help prevent the early signs of aging.
I would recommend this cream for women in their early 30s or late 20s who want to take preventative measures to help reduce fine lines around the eyes.

I received this body wash in the mail as part of the product review club about a week ago and I've been using it daily ever since.
I really like the soft, clean scent of the product which smells good in the shower but doesn't clash with my other lotions or perfumes that I wear throughout the day.
The texture is really soft and I've even been using it to shave my legs with because I ran out of shave gel. It leaves them smooth and soft.
I work out every day so sometimes I shower twice or even three times in a day and a lot of body washes have a tendency to dry out my skin but this one didn't at all. I've noticed the moisturizing property of the body wash has kicked in a little bit more over the week leaving my skin feeling pretty soft, which is great.
I would definitely recommend this product as a basic everyday body wash.

I received this along with the dark chocolate version for the product review. I have to say I ripped them open immediately and tried one of each. Initially I preferred the dark chocolate with dark chocolate mousse over the milk chocolate with dark chocolate mousse inside. I felt like the milk chocolate shell should have milk chocolate mousse inside.
The taste of the dark chocolate mousse is pretty good for a drugstore brand ( as opposed to high end like Godiva) and the suggested price $ 3.99 is definitely reasonable for the ten generous pieces of chocolate you get.
I brought them with me to work and they all disappeared very quickly! I also brought some marshmallows with me and ate them along with the chocolate - what a treat! They are also great with coffee as a morning indulgence!
The packaging is cute with little steps written on the inside lid of how to arouse your senses through eating this chocolate.
I would definitely recommend either the milk or dark version of this product if you're at the drugstore or grocery store and want something a bit more luxurious than a regular chocolate bar, or if you want something to share with a friend.
I would buy this product again. Yum!

"A Piece of Cake" by Cupcake Brown

This is a great book about a young girl who struggles to overcome the death of a parent, poverty, abuse, drug addiction, rape, gang violence, miscarriage and several foster homes all before the age of 21. She went on to beat insurmountable odds to go to law school, graduate, and become a lawyer at one of the top law firms in the USA. She is now a practicing lawyer and motivational speaker. This is a true story and I found it extremely inspiring. If you have a chance to pick it up, it is a great read! -

I love the TIDE stain remover pen because it has saved my clothes on numerous occasions. It has removed coffee, ketchup, gravy, and even blueberry stains from a white hoodie. If it's a tough stain it does take a bit of time and may require regular washing afterwards, but it can save clothes that would otherwise be ruined. It works best if you use it right away, but I tried it on stains that were a couple of hours old and it still worked. I always keep one in my purse! -

My boyfriend and I both love this ice cream because it is very inexpensive, has a great creamy texture, and tastes similar to higher end " cookies and cream" flavours in other brands. The only thing we don't agree on is who ate it all ... but I'll be honest, it's usually me :). -

Matthew is the best stylist I have ever had. I started going to him about three years ago and now refuse to go to anyone else. He always listens to the client and does EXACTLY what they are asking him for, as well as being really funny to talk to. He is very accomodating to client's schedules if at all possible, but make sure to book him early because he's so popular!
I highlight my hair blonde and Matthew always takes extra time to make sure the colour is beautiful, not brassy, and doesn't mind taking extra time doing tons of foil highlights whereas other stylists would just dye the whole head. He is very particular about how his clients look and feels that each person who leaves the salon is a reflection of his work. Therefore he always makes sure to style everyone to look their very best before leaving the salon.
If you are looking for a new look, he will also talk to you about what style would suit your face shape and what colour(s) would look best, but for sure he is great at LISTENING to the client who knows exactly what they want. ,Even when I have told him to only cut a little bit off the ends , he listened- which has never happened with any other stylist I have had.
Overall I recomment Hair Excel for their friendly service, but this rave review is to give kudos specifically to Matthew. Call Hair Excel at 416-926-9755.
