I received this free in exchange for an HONEST review
I constantly heat style and dye my hair (I don't know where I think I'm going in the middle of a pandemic!) Needless to say, my hair has been left dry and damaged. This conditioner provided so much moisture that after washing, my hair felt so smooth, hydrated and frizz free (yay!!) after! I used to buy expensive hair products, but this is just as good!!! highly recommended!

Essie expressie Breaking the Bold

the color is not as deep / rich as you would expect looking at the bottle. Partly because it's a really thin formula. It took me 3 coats to get a darker colour, but still not quite how it shows in the bottle. Still a really nice colour though. Reminds me of crushed velvet.
The brush is a much thicker brush than I expected from Essie - which is a good thing!! I usually find Essie brushes to be really thin and wimpy. My brush was a little lopsided though - it's off to one side like it isn't put on straight. But not too bad that it's unworkable.

I have used other grocery deliver services in the past, but the Voila by Sobeys services is the best one yet. All of my groceries were promptly delivered in the timeslot chosen. I also received a call to say that they were on the way.
The attention to detail was amazing! All of my groceries were packed based on temperature - frozen foods in one bag. The eggs were checked to ensure nothing was broken along the way. Fruits and vegetables were picked just right (e.g., bananas were not too ripe but not too green either).
I only wish that the Voila by Sobeys accepted air miles as they do in their stores.

I received this product for free from Chickadvisor in exchange for an honest review.
GarnierBio anti-age day care moisturizer was very effective. It has a very smooth texture, kept my sensitive skin moisturized and was thrilled that it is certified organic. I have been trying to move to green, organic makeup and skincare lately and this definitely hit the mark. My only complaint is that I found the scent very strong. Pleasant. But strong.

I was looking for a good leave in conditioner as my hair was feeling dry and also needed to tame the frizz. I was in one of those beauty supply stores and a sales rep highly recommended this.
It seems good - just not exactly getting at the things I needed.
My hair definitely feels softer on day one of using this - even after blow drying. But it goes back to its regular dry self on day 2. This also did absolutely nothing to tame my frizz.
the worse thing about this is that it smells like buttered popcorn. Makes me sick even though the smell goes away pretty quick.
Overall, I would not but this again.

First off, I have shoulder length, thick wavy/curly hair that is full of frizz. This is the only hair curler/wand that has given me great hair days - even up to day 3!
I have tried (and tried, and tried...) to get that perfect beachy wave that looks like you're not trying (but really used to take me nearly an hour to create). I've tried curling irons, curling with the straightener, salt spray and nothing turned out right. And then this came into my life. Yes, its a little pricey, but definitely well worth it! I get that perfect wave every time by holding the wand parallel to my shoulder and wrapping around the wand. My entire head took no more than 15 minutes too!!
brushing it out gave me looser glamour looking waves that lasted for 3 days!!
Highly, highly recommend!

this is a great hand soap. During this pandemic, we are all trying our best to keep our hands clean. But washing my hands at least 20 times a day left them dry with other hand soaps. This Dial Micellar hand wash is gentle while cleaning my hands thoroughly. This did not leave my hands feeling dry at all!
The scent was also very gentle and didn't leave my hands smelling too much like soap or flowers. Great for those who are sensitive to scent.
I can see children loving this foaming soap as it is more "fun" than traditional hand soaps. I also like the foam as it ensures that the soap is spread everywhere on my hands and not just concentrated on a spot on my palm.

I bought the cream version (in the tube) when I was travelling and found the dry air to really bother my skin. And I loved it!! When the tube finished, for some reason, I decided to purchase the drops I can't remember if they were sold out of the cream or if I thought the drops would better penetrate my skin better. Either way, it was a waste.
As I should have expected, the drops provide no barrier for your skin - something I definitely needed. While it is much lighter in texture than the cream, I didn't find it hydrating or cooling on the skin like the cream was.
The cream version also helped to soothe my eczema, whereas the drop version didn't really do anything for it.

I bought this in the colour blackberry and I love it. While it is a sheer colour, it does deposit enough colour to show that you are wearing a lip colour but not enough that its the first thing you see. If you are going for the minimalist "no makeup" makeup look, then this is definitely a must.
It is very hydrating - especially on my typically dry lips.
I will likely purchase the raspberry colour soon. For reference, I am NC30 in the summer and NC 20 in the winter.

I bought these in a few colours (storm, haze and puff) but given my tanned NC30 skin, I had to give puff to my niece. The other colours are stunning on my though.
These cream/gel colours are beautiful and you can control the amount you need (TIP: start small and build up the colour- some colours really pack a punch!) I personally find I only really need 2 little dots per cheek and blend using my finger tips (wash your hands after!!).
The colours seem to last all day (10+ hour work days)
