I reviewed this product as part of the Product Review Club.
I am an existing Crest user but, I am not a pro-health user so I was very happy to give it a try.
I really like the flip can, so much cleaner. I wish this was the standard for toothpaste! The toothpaste isn't goopy and leaves your teeth feeling fresh without any residue. It's not too foamy. While I haven't noticed the whitening effect (as I already use a whitening tooth paste) my teeth haven't become discoloured so it must be doing a good job with that too.
The only negative is just a personal taste thing, I much prefer the clean mint flavour to the fresh that was sent to me. There are only certain tastes I can handle in toothpaste and that's why I am a dedicated Crest clean mint user.

I received Crest 3D Whitestrips through the product review club. Overall, I was impressed. The product was easy to use and did stick well to my teeth for the duration I needed to have them on though sometimes I felt like there were little air bubbles in them. Compared to the Crest Whitening toothpaste I use day to day, this makes a dramatic difference. The only down side for me was the tooth sensitivity. I don't have sensitive teeth but I was definitely sensitive to these. The sensitivity went away by the next day but that's the only thing that would stop me buying this product again because I did find it a bit uncomfortable.
Overall, great experience with the product and definitely worth a purchase if you want to try it at home.

I used him for our wedding and engagement photos and couldn't have been happier! Our photos turns out wonderfully and the experience for both shoots was fantastic. Steve is a wonderful person to work with and I highly recommend him.
His prices are fair and competitive. You will definitely get high quality photography from him!

I'd pretty much given up on spray/ leave in conditioners until I tried this shake. It works just as well as the standard conditioner and leaves you with the same light feeling (it also doesn't make your hair feel hard, it's almost as though you just sprayed water on your hair)
It smells fantastic, just like the other two as well. I'm glad to have found a spray that works so well!

Much like the shampoo this conditioner doesn't weigh down your hair. It also doesn't even feel like a standard conditioner when you wash it out (thick and slippery) This smells just as good as the shampoo as well.
I have wavy hair and it keeps my hair from going crazy which is something I look for in a conditioner.

This shampoo really does leave you hair feeling weightless.
I got the opportunity to use this at the event at BLO and it was amazing how soft and weightless my hair felt even after a blow dry! I've since used the product at home with the same results.
I also really like the scent of the product.
I will purchase this product when I run out!

I recently used a daily deal to go to Aroma Wellness Centre & Spa.
I was very impressed. My treatment started with a sauna to sweat out the toxins and then I moved onto my massage and facial. The massage was excellent (and I'm very picky when it comes to massages!) and the facial was well done (I didn't end up with any reaction to the products nor did I have a major break out the next day) I left this spa feeling refreshed and relaxed.
The service was great as well. Everyone was very friendly and wanted to make sure that your every need was attended to. I will definitely go back and use their services again.

I ran out of my usual Ponds daily cleansers and I thought I'd give the Olay Daily Facials a try since they were on sale.
I must say, I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the product. It deep cleans, reduces acne and comes in a sensitive skin formula (which is what I purchased). It doesn't leave your skin dry or as if there is a layer of residue left on your skin.
They say the sensitive skin version is fragrance free but it has a weird smell - nothing too offensive and I can deal with it but, it is the only downside to the product.
I will consider picking these up again from the store when I run out.

I tried this system out to see if I could save myself some money by giving home waxing another try. My big problem with at home waxing previously was getting the wax to the exact temperature so seeing this electric system was intriguing to me.
The instructions said it would take 20 minutes to heat the wax, in my case it took closer to 30 but it was worth the wait. The wax wasn't too hot, and I didn't burn myself at all. It also did a great job of sticking to the hairs so you ripped them right out when you pulled. It rolled on very easily as well. The wipes they include in the pack also take care of getting all the wax off your body since water won't remove the wax. It also leaves your skin feeling soft and soothed so that's great too.
The system is about $25-$30 and refills are $15 (ish) but, it appears that each refill will last me two or three waxes so it's much cheaper than going to a salon. I'm so glad I discovered this product!

I tried the hair masque through the product review club and I was pleased with it. It is much heavier than the shampoo and really does deep moisturize your hair.
The product left my hair soft and smooth, both when using heat products (Blow Dryer, Hair Straightener) as well as when I just let my hair air dry. My hair is naturally wavy and it did weigh my hair down and make it less wavy but I was okay with that - definitely a plus on days where I am going to flat iron my hair!
Overall, I think it's a good product but it's something I'd keep in my cupboard for when my hair needed some serious TLC.
