My hair is super fine and super straight, but this iron works wonders on it! Fairly inexpensive and I thought since my hair is so hard to curl, that I wouldn't bother spending more than needed! For the $50 I spent on it, I'm very happy with the results! The irons do come in different barrel sizes, I have the largest barrel that gives you big wavy curls! I'm a fan and highly recommend it! -

This book was originally written under Anonymous, which is what caught my attention in the first place! It's quite hard to find and a girlfriend had to order our copies from amazon (and they only had used copies since they no longer publish the book to be sold in stores!) It was originally written under Anonymous because it's a first hand experience written book... everything the author writes about is exactly what she was going through! She thought her real-life husband wouldn't appreciate it, so under Anonymous it was! Until he in fact found out about it, and divorced her! That's when she released it under her real name! (Hence, there are two covers for this book!)
The story is her journey through life and her deepest sexual desires! She is very blunt and open, and if sex is something that you shy from, you may not enjoy this book! I thought it was very well written and empowering! Something for the more adventurous reader!

Let me tell you, I've had this straightner for over 5 yrs and it still works like a charm! I know a lot of people prefer the thinner straightners, but I like that this is a bigger one that cover more hair area then the others! It doesn't burn your hair and works flawlessly! Heats up quickly and definitely worth the $130 I spent on it! -
Peek Freans LifeStyle Cranberry Citrus Oat Crunch Cookies

I'm not a huge cookie person! Really! Unless they"re freshly baked or from a coffee shop. But the LifeStyle Cranberry Citrus Oat Crunch Cookies are beyond amazing, that this chick who used to dodge the cookie isle will now go hunting down it for these! Believe it or not, I first tried these at a hospital! My mom was having a surgery and they brought her some as a snack and she gave them to me. After that, I made her promise to save these for me when I visited! They're crunchy, and you can really taste the orange citrus and cranberries!
Bonus - they're a great source of fibre and 3 cookies are only 113 calories! Yum!!

I attended a blow out event for this product and was really happy with the results! My hair is thin and fine and usually get pretty oily, pretty quick! I was surprised that after 2 days of not washing my hair (for experimental purposes, lol!) that my hair didn't look oily or weighed down! It was still light and airy! I was surprised how much volume I got from the line, in general! Was very happy to get the chance to try this out! -

I'm someone who is prone to blemishes and have always fought a pretty hard battle with acne and acne scars! I recently started really looking after my skin and started getting regular facials (once every 3-4 months!) Despite them being a tad pricey where I go (Elmwood Spa) I go because it's doing wonders for my skin! I've have dry skin most of my life and recently I'd been noticing some wrinkles forming and was like, noooo, something needs to be done! I went in for a Purifying facial where they used their own product like creams and lotions. Let me tell you, I would not have fallen for the whole "buy this to treat your skin" stuff that you'd normal see when a place is upselling it's products, but there was no sales pitch from the esthecitian. She recommended I use the products as a regular regime and I'm super happy with the results!
The kit comes with a CLEANSING CREAM, SERUM, DAY CREAM, AHA CREAM EXFOLIATOR, SIAM SHOWER GEL all for $100! Considering each product if purchased by themselves is around $50, this is a great kit and the products usually last me about 3-4 months!
The cleansing cream is milky and sweet smelling! The serum is watery and only to be used a few times a week for extra moisture! The day cream is sooo smooth and fresh on the skin! The AHA cream exfoliator is soft and leaves you really feeling clean! No grains or roughness for exfoliating your skin here! And the shower gel is an added bonus! I do love the fresh smell!
I definitely recommend this starter kit if you presently don't use anything! Your skin will do a 180 and thank you! I get compliments on my "glow" all the time now! :)

A friend of mine suggested this lip balm to me and I thought I'd give it a go! I love the shape and it's so easy to apply since it's shaped like an egg, covers bottom and top lips easily! No need to screw anything! I'm not particularly fond of the flavour but I hear they have others! As for it's effectiveness, I find it to be your typical waxy lip balm, nothing too special! -

I love love looooove this lip stain! I was browsing around Sephora and walked by Kat Von D's new collection called Mi Vida Loca. The palette's are fresh and vibrant and I immediately began playing with the make up! I picked up the lip stains (come in 2 colours, vibrant red and hot pink) and tried the red! It glides on really easy and you don't need a lot to cover! Leaves a great matte look on the lips that lasts for hours! I went for fajitas later and still had the stain on despite cleaning my lips on the napkin a bunch of times! Great product! -

They have 2 locations in Toronto, I'm referring to the College St location!
I can't say enough fabulous things about LIT! It's welcoming and friendly, and the atmosphere is one of cool and collectiveness! I go there almost every other day to catch up on some reading after a long day at work! they have great window seating and play old movies projected onto the back wall! A long communal table sits in the back where you can find people wasting some time on their laptops! It's very cozy and the baristas are great! Friendly and kind and sure know their coffee! Brian is my fav! He makes a kick ass Mocha!
The coffee is all free-trade organic Stumptown - which in my opinion has some of the very best beans around! Try their espresso! you'll see what I mean! :)

I am soooo happy to have found this liquid liner! I was shopping around in Sephora for a liquid eyeliner that had a very thin point! I love the look of cat eyes but always end up with really thick lines when using your typical liquid liner from the drug store, so I thought I'd try the real stuff! When I tried this liner in the store, I was amazed by the thin line! It was exactly what I was looking for! That, and the amount of liquid dispensed out of the foam tip was just right! Would definitely highly recommend it, despite it being a tad pricey! -
