My all time favourite, holy-grail foundation. I haven't found any other foundation that compares to this one in terms of coverage and staying power. My oily skin has finally met its match and this will be a forever repurchase for me. This is the true definition of full coverage so if you are not looking for that level of coverage, my guess is you will not like this product but for me, its perfection. Large colour range so matching is not a problem. The only drawback to this is the packaging. No pump? Ugh! Estee Lauder does have a pump you can purchase for $13 CDN but I wish they would update the packaging to include a pump. However, this is such a great product that I am able to overlook the poor packaging. -

A little about my skin: I am an oily skinned gal who still experiences breakouts. Dealing with these issues, it is important for me to have my makeup be a) full coverage and b) mattifying. This powder checks both of those boxes. I use this over my foundation as a setting powder. I find it gives me a little boost of coverage while setting my foundation to a matte finish. I also like that this product comes in a huge selection of colours so it is definitely easy for most to find a match I would say. My only qualm with this product is the price. $35 for a compact and it lasts me maybe 1-2 months as I use it to set makeup then as a blot powder throughout my day. Having said that, its the only powder foundation I have found that performs as I want it to so for that reason, I will always repurchase this product. Its a classic for a reason and I have gone through many of these! -

This is a wonderful body wash. I live in Alberta. The winters are cold and DRY so the idea of using a cleaning oil in the shower appealed to me. I didn't know what to expect as I am used to a foaming body wash but I took the plunge and bought the big bottle of this at my local SDM. I am glad I did! This stuff works great! Very slight lather to this but I still feel like it is moisturizing my skin and cleansing well. When I use this in place of a traditional body wash, I do not feel like I need to apply lotion after my shower which is a huge bonus for me. Comes in a large bottle (900 ml I believe) with a pump so it is convenient to leave on the shelf in the shower. Cost was reasonable for such a large bottle which will likely last quite a long time. I do think that this will be a winter treat for my skin. It might be too emollient for the warmer weather though. This also makes for a great makeup remover as a first step in my skincare routine also. Love that its multi-use in that way. Will absolutely repurchase and recommend to anyone struggling with dry, itchy skin in the winter. -
