I loveeee this mascara so much! Honestly, I've spent so much money before on high-end mascara and nothing lives up to this one. It is EXTREMELY affordable and it separates and lengthens and volumize my lashes like no other mascara out there. The one con about this mascara is I've noticed that if it's new and/or not dried up yet the formula gets into my contacts and blurs my vision. It's not until the mascara starts drying up a bit in the tube that it stops. I still will not buy another mascara until I find one that works just like this without the irritation for the contacts part. Worth it! -

I've just started using it recently and really like it as a gentle simple daily cleanser. It doesn't foam up too much where it takes a long time to clean it off with water and because it doesn't foam up too much it's not TOO stripping of your natural oil. I have super oily skin and I really enjoy the texture of the cleanser too... it feels a little gel-like at first when you pump it out and then it lathers really nicely onto the face. All in all, if you're looking for a gentle mild daily cleanser I find this much better than Cetaphil. -

Covergirl is doing amazing job with their foundation. This is another hit in the park. Packaging is on point with the glass bottle and PUMP (thank you)! It claims to have the lasting power of primer, coverage of a concealer, and blendability of a foundation in one and I do have to say that they're not lying. Again, my skin is very oily so the fact this foundation stays on my skin for a good 10+ hours in a day is a good foundation for me already. This foundation is easy to put on, easy to blend into my skin, and feels light-ish. Reason why I say light-ish is because the more you do build coverage it does get to feel a bit cake-y. Love the array of colours too. One bad thing about this foundation is it does oxides a bit so that's the tricky part of finding the right colour for this foundation. But I highly recommend giving it a try! -

Who would've thought drugstore foundation can be so good! But I'm a believer after trying this foundation. There are numerous reasons why I like this foundation. First of all, the packaging, I love a squeeze bottle for my foundation because it's easily to control how much you want to use, mess free, and easily to squeeze out the very last bit of the foundation. Second of all, the foundation itself is not too thick but not too liquid either. Just the right amount of viscosity! Third of all, the coverage is very build-able. It can easily be a light-to-medium coverage or to a medium-to-dark coverage depending on how much you put on your skin. And lastly, the staying power is pretty amazing for a drugstore foundation. I have very oily skin and it's hard to find foundation that doesn't just "melt" off my face but this is compatible with high-end foundation for their staying power. I reach for this foundation on days where my skin is not acting up with lots of pimples and/or if I want to look fresh and not "made-up". -

I have a love hate relationship with this particular cleansing conditioner. It really does what it says which is clean the hair while conditioning it at the same time. Its great for days where you want to skip on shampooing your hair or if your hair is extremely dry/damaged I can see this product working for you. However, as a woman with extremely oily hair it is not very good at managing the oil in my hair. I use this sporadically because if I use it too often I start noticing a buildup in my hair and there will be residue on my hair even right after showering. I just feel so sticky and oily throughout the day and would have too put my hair up right after washing it which is really a shame. -

This is a great medium to high end foundation. I've always used the Revlon ColorStay foundation for years and thought that was a good foundation too but after trying this, I think this can be considered my holy grail (HG) for a medium to full coverage foundation. First of all, I'm extremely oily with a lot of redness around my nose area and lots of acne scars on my chin so it's very difficult to find foundations that actually can cover majority of those problems. If I do find something that can do that, it tends to be very heavy and cakey feeling. This foundation however, covers all the redness and majority of the scars (of course still need to use some concealer to completely cover it all) but it is not at all heavy. It actually feels like I'm wearing nothing at all and the best part is that it does not "melt" off my face in a couple of hours because of my oily skin. It stays in place! Even after blotting my face with blotting papers the foundation does not come off that much to make me feel like I need to reapply more foundation or that my redness starts to show. This is an amazing foundation and in my opinion worth the price! -

This is THE best way to put your foundation on. Although it is on the pricier side it is worth every penny. I was extremely skeptical at first and was not willing to spend the money for just a makeup sponge but the texture of the beautyblender is just so different from anything I've tried before. The foundation just melts into your skin and reveals a flawless finish when you use the beautyblender damped and "bounce" the foundation on. It does recommend to discard the sponge every 3 months which can get costly ($30 CDN x 4 times per year = $120 CDN) just for a sponge! But honestly, if you take good care of it and washes it on a daily/weekly basis I think it can last for a long time. Also, a great way to clean the sponge is by using a cleansing oil (I use the one for L'oreal). I squirt a few pumps right onto the sponge when its dry and squish it a couple times to really get the cleansing oil into the sponge to get every trace of foundation out. The beautyblender is also really great for baking your concealer. Overall, a must have for the makeup enthusiast! -
