I love this powder! It covers everything and it makes my skin feel sooooooo smooth! I keep touching my face. Besides that, it lasts all day! Since it's pretty expensive, so far I'm still using my old L'Oreal stuff (still good stuff) until it runs out, using these only on nights out. I put my makeup on at around 7 in the morning and I went out around 10pm at night and it was still there as nice as it had appeared in the morning. :) -
Burt's Bees Beeswax Lip Balm with Vitamin-E & Peppermint
I read lots of good reviews about this lip balm, and I have to say, I really like it. The smell isn't that great and it's overpowering, but it moisturizes very well! Despite the smell, I will probably repurchase!

I keep giving these products about the same rating. I honestly don't think one is better than the other. Although I do prefer this one because it has absolutely no scent (which is what you want in a lip balm - just the moisture!). I do like the others because they have mild scents, so they aren't that different. This product is very nice. I like that it goes on light, as another reviewer said, she likes it thick... but I don't. I enjoy light formulas for most of my makeup, as if it is too thick, I feel like I'm wearing it. I want to feel like my lips are moisturized, but not like they have a product on them. This does the job.
I will keep saying this - the moisture is amazing!

As I said in one of my other reviews, this lip balm is very moisturizing, which I love. I love that it has a very mild fragrance too! The lip balm does not feel greasy, waxy, or sticky at all. It goes on smooth and moisturizes your lips as it should by feeling great! I love that these products are all-natural!
I also love the container these lip balms are in. It's thicker than the old softlips formula which I find much better, plus it is in a lipstick formula rather than a flat stick formula (if you know what I mean with other lip balms), so I think it's easier to apply.

I got this yesterday as part of the Product Review Club, and of course I decided to try out the Citrus one first. I have tried their Softlips' slimmer formula (specifically the French Vanilla) and loved that tingly feeling it gave my lips, which this one doesn't do, but who really cares, right? The citrus has a nice smell, but it's also a very light scent. I find with some lip balms or lip glosses, the scent can sometimes be overpowering, which can almost give me a headache. Products for lips should not be too overpowering as they are just below your nose and can eventually annoy you during the day. So this was just the right amount. I don't need something that smells good, just something that moisturizes! I have to say this product works pretty well. I wear it under my lipstick and it helps moisturize the lipstick itself so that my lips look soft, healthy and juicy. Right now I'm actually rubbing my lips together, they feel so soft.
I like that this lip balm isn't chock full of chemicals, that's definitely a plus.
I don't know if I would pay $4.75 for the product though. While I normally like to spend lots on makeup, lip balm is usually at the bottom of my list for buying. I generally just go for the cheap stuff. You can go with a cheap lip balm, and it won't make too much of a difference. But if you got a cheap moisturizer, foundation, anything else, it's more noticeable. Lip balms are usually pretty much the same for me, they all do generally the same thing. This one is just a bit above average as it's way more moisturizing than the one I was previously using.
So, at $4.75... maybe. If I feel like splurging! I definitely recommend it though! That's for sure!

AVON Microfibre Super Absorbent Hair Towel
This towel is great. Whenever I take a shower I can never get a normal towel to stay on my head! It will always unravel and fall off no matter what. This towel makes everything so much easier.

This bag looks absolutely disgusting. It's one of those fads that just doesn't stick. I used to see everyone with these Louis Vuitton bags everywhere, but it has finally died down, thank god. I never understood why anyone would like a bag that looks this gross. It's way too expensive for what it is, and I'm not one to usually dis handbags. Designer handbags are beautiful, and though they are pricey, a lot of the time they are worth it. Louis Vuitton just doesn't cut it. I didn't understand that trend. Ugh. -
Nintendo Wii
The Wii is so fun! If you play Rayman: Raving Rabbits (I think that's what it's called) you will never be able to stop playing. It is HILARIOUS. The sports games are also really fun :)

I love the DS Lite. It's so cute and extremely portable for those long boring rides to school. One of my favourite games to play is Trauma Center. Though I think I look like a fool when I play it because I'm furiously trying to save my patients before the time runs up... people on the bus must be like "What the heck is she doing??". It's an okay price, but it's definitely worth it. -
