I have Asian eyes and bought this after reading hundreds of rave reviews. Unfortunately, this does nothing more than my old Tweezerman curler I bought for $6. Any way I position it, the curler manages to pinch and hurt. I also doesn't get the lashes at the end at all. It doesn't fit my eyes (which are almond shaped, double lidded, shortish lashes). The only good thing is that you can buy curler pad refills, 3 for $6, at sephora, whereas the tweezerman only came with one and you can't buy refills. -

I got this duo for free as a gift at the Clinique counter. It's a duo lipstick and lipgloss. The lipstick is in Raspberry Glace and the lipgloss is in Fireberry.
Clinique's Different Lipsticks sure do live up to their name! I LOVE how this product feels on -- it's incredibly moisturizing. I had to reapply a few hours after the first application, though(but I'd only applied one coat).
The ligloss is not so great. It's very thick and sticky, and tastes bad.
Both have vibrant and wet-looking, juicy color. Not too shimmery. They're both great berry colours.

Moule is afamily-owned boutique that has a close and comfortable vibe. The salespeople are always cheerful and very willing to help you find what you're looking for. Unfortunately, they also love talking to you about everything so if you don't feel like having a conversation it can be a little annoying.
The prices are a bit steep because they carry designer labels like Vera Wang, Velvet, Seven's jeans, and giftware like Alessi and Vinturi. My brother (who is 4) loves the toy and book section - they have some really funky merchandise. There's something for everyone at this store.

L'Oréal Paris True Match Super Blendable Foundation

This is a really great quality liquid concealer. For my entire face, i only need to use the amount that covers the inside of the lid when I shake the bottle upside down (I hope that makes sense!). It's not too matte, so you don't look or feel like you're wearing a mask. It does provide good coverage for scars and blemishes though - especially if you use two layers. It blends very easily and feels velvety. However, it tends to wear off a bit afterabout 5 hours. All in all, it is very natural looking and a great price for its value. -

This is such a pigmented eyeshadow. The intense color in the case is really the same color that is going on your eyes. The powder is very velvety and fine, and you don't need a lot to have a great effect. It's very dramatic and doesn't fade. I personally haven't used the pink shadow because it makes my eyes look tired, but someone else could pull it off. The dark plum is best for everyday and the purple is an edgier look.
They also come in more than 45 different sets.

This is the best drugstore brand of nail polish I have found. It doesn't streak, lasts 4 or so days without chipping, and comes in so many gorgous colours. It is a big bottle too so you don't use it up quickly. I'd compare it to OPI's nail polishes. I have 8 different colours and I love them! -

Tim Horton's is good for its inexpensive drinks and pastries, but that's about it. I had an incredibly slow cashier who did not know what was on the menu, how to use the cash register, how to hear, or how to make food. It took me 45 minutes to get my chicken ranch wrap snacker, which she rolled up messily and threw on my plate with no napkin. It had one tiny piece of chicken, a squashed slice of tomato, and one lettuce leaf in it. A total wasteof time and money. -

I went here for breakfast with some friends a few weeks ago. You'll love the bright yellow, chicken-bedazzled, unapolagetically cheerful decor, and you won't find the scrumptious looking menu items bad either. I had an egg and ham crepe and it was very filling, especially with a cup of custard and beautifully sliced fresh fruits.
My friends ordered the April 89 crepe, which was apparently delicious but by the end they were getting sick of the massive amount of whipped cream. Most of the food items are smothered in whipped cream, sugar, and fruits. The service was quick and cheerful. I would go back.
