I get tanned really easily so I normally don't need bronzer, but if I need a bit of color in the dreary winter months, NARS' Laguna is the one I use. NARS is my go-to brand for blushes, and their bronzers are as well too!
A little lasts a long time and the packaging is solid. The color is a warm tone that flatters my yellow undertones and gives me a nice glow with a light swipe over my face. Doesn't oxidize on me/turn that icky orange color.
It's a bit pricey, but when you think about how one package can last you a few years, then it's totally worth it!

Cottonelle Ultra Bathroom Tissue

Overall, this is a great TP!
I like the thickness and softness - it's comfortable to use and absorbent with no flaking when wet... it's one of the better TP's on the market!
That being said, it's not my favorite. My go-to TP will still be Charmin Extra Strong.
There are a few minor things with this toilet paper that doesn't make it as good for me. The perforations are incredibly difficult to see! I've ripped in the middle of a square several times and it makes the roll look ugly. I also don't like that it's a little stingy on the squares per roll - it looks as big as other double rolls, but since it has less that 200 squares, it doesn't last as long as the price per roll ends up being quite a bit more.
I would consider buying it if it's on sale, but the above issues prevent it from replacing my favorite brand, Charmin.

I was excited to get picked to try the flavored water since I'm always looking for ways to make water more tasty so I can drink more of it without too many additional calories.
I like the concept of these drinks with the water and nutrients with only 10 calories per serving.
That being said, I agree with a lot of the comments that the drinks are quite sweet... I actually preferred diluting the drinks a bit with some plain water to get a less sugary taste. Other than that, the drinks were quite tasty. My favorite was the black and blueberry, then the apple pear, and last the strawberry lemonade.
The drinks are nice and refreshing, and I liked it best when served chilled and diluted with some plain water.

I haven't colored my hair in years since I didn't like the upkeep and damage to my ends, even though I always went to the salon. I was always paranoid about doing at-home hair coloring and dealing with the mess.
This package was easy to use and I'd recommend this if you don't need a drastic change and are looking for solid color as opposed to highlights/lowlights. It was easy to apply but although it's ammonia-free, it still has a mild icky hair color smell. My hair is naturally dark and I selected the dark reddish brown, so it left my hair with a minimal color change, more of a tint. It did give it a great shine and softness and my hair seems a bit thicker.
The product does what it says it should and I'll update if there's any issues with the gradual washout.

I love Jo Malone - if you have the budget for her candles, you must add them to your home!
This is a great kit to start off with if you can't decide what you like. I like Jo Malone since her scents are natural and made for essential oils, none of that artificial chemical scent. My only complaint is that the staying power isn't great on its own. That being said, her scents are natural and fresh. My favorite one our of this collection is the Nectarine Blossom and Honey. Fresh and fruity - it's one of my favorite summer scents!

I love Narciso Rodriguez clothing and his fragrance is no exception! It fits his clothing style well - timeless, clean, subtle but with style! I like light florals and this one fits the bill, but not in a old lady or heavy way. It's a subtle and sexy scent and I've had a lot of compliments when I've worn this one. Soft and sweet - should please most people. -

I must admit that I re-gifted this fragrance when I received it so I'm not much of a fan! It's a nice fresh fragrance that reminds me of summer, but I like scents that are a little more unique and this one doesn't have that for me. I think it's a good basic scent that's not too overpowering. Staying power is average for me. -

Aaah, this was one of my original fragrances when I used to wear Clinique makeup and would get these samples in my bonus packs!
It's still a classic fragrance and has been around for years. Bright, sunny and literally happy smelling - I think it's a great scent that should please most. The only complaint I have about it is that it is very common and easily identifiable.

I love many things Hermes and this is no exception!
Hermes has many wonderful fragrances and Kelly Caleche is one of my favorites since it came out a couple of years ago. The bottle is pretty and feminine with the pink fragrance, and the little Kelly lock closure around the top is adorable! Scent is natural and lightly floral and not chemical/artificial. Nice, light and feminine... a great summer and everyday fragrance.

Great ice cream! I normally don't like low fat ice cream but was pleasantly surprised by this one!
I had the chance to try out the flavors at the Vancouver Breyer's party and it was a blast. How can you go wrong with cocktails and ice cream? This technology seems to work very well with dispersing the cream particles and it gave the ice cream a nice creamy taste and didn't seem to be half the fat at all!
My favorite flavors were the Dolce de Leche (mmm, the caramel was great!) and the coffe fudge brownie (love the taste and brownie chunks).
I think this is a great ice cream that doesn't make you compromise on taste! Priced the same as others Breyers products so I think it's very reasonable.
