Love these facial wipes. I use facial wipes to take off most of my make up before i actually wash my face with a cleanser and let me tell you these take my make up off with no problems. They are nice and soft feeling, they have a nice light smell to them, not over powering and the size of the towelette is bigger compared to some others i have tried. Lastly you cannot beat the pricing, $15 CDN for over i think 300 facial wipes, you cant go wrong and its also nice because in the box they give you big packs and then travel packs that are a bit smaller. -

Where do I start .. I do not like this foundation at all. It is one of the more expensive drugstore foundations at just $20CAD for the standard 1fl oz. First of all, good luck trying to find your shade match if you like me where your more cool/neutral toned, not light but not dark either. They seem to only cater their shade to Light and dark, I tried both their LC1 & LN4 which are the light shades before it starts going into the really warm toned shades and neither of them worked, they were both to light. I also didn't like the finish or coverage, it was very cakey looking and the coverage was around the light medium range with not much luck at building up the coverage. The last drawback was the smell, holy does it smell like chemicals or something but it stays with you all day. The only one good thing that I liked was the applicator which is a wand type thing, this prevents you from using to.much product which is the next best thing to a pump. I wouldn't honestly recommend this to anyone and is just a complete no go for me. -

I have wanted this hair dryer ever since I used them at a local gym and I finally got it for my birthday. I absolutely love this product, I have thin hair but a lot of it and this dry's my hair in 10 mins compared to 20+ mins using my Conair. It also makes my hair nice and shiny and smooth, sometimes I don't even have to straighten it with my Babyliss hair straightener its that good. It isn't cheap though, it is a expensive blow dryer at around $200 CDN but it is worth every penny if you have tons of wavy hair like me and you don't want to spend a hour doing your hair. Also it is SUPER HOT at its highest setting which is nice to get hair dry fast. -

I am not sure about this product, I love the brand, the consistency is a rich cream for eyes and like the rest of their products it has a nice fresh scent however not overly strong which is nice. I've been using this for a month now and if you asked me does it make my eyes brighter my answer would be I have no idea. I don't really see much difference however it is definitely moisturizing and I do tend to get dry under my eyes sometime so I guess for this fact it does work but as for brightening i'm not sure. At $48 CDN it is a bit steep however for what the brand stands for I would pay that. -

I re-purchased a trial size from Sephora after a consultant gave me a tiny sample. I am in love with this stuff, it has completely changed my skin, it doesn't break me out like other products, a little goes a long way and it is so moisturizing that it makes my skin so soft and hydrated. It is a gel consistency, sells great but isn't a powerful fragrance, it also absorbs really really well. It is a big more expensive at $47 CDN than other types of gel moisturizer however it is totally worth it, this might just be my new facial moisturizer. -

Just discovered this brand thanks to a consultant at Sephora. I ended up buying the little trial kit for a few of Tarte's products to try and this face oil was part of it. I have to say, of all the face oils I've tried this one is great. It smells nice, not overly fragrant, it is the usual consistency of oil however what I really liked was that it wasn't overly oily when applied to my face, it actually absorbs pretty well, and a little goes a long way. As with most of Sephora's brands, this stuff is pretty pricey at $66CDN for the 2nd biggest bottle they sell, I would imagine that it would last a while since the little trial size has lasted me over a month now. The only thing I wouldn't recommend is wearing it under makeup, I did one day and I didn't like it very much however it is great as a moisturizer for nighttime. Brand is great also being all natural, vegan, and cruelty free. -

Visited Sephora and the very nice sales consultant suggested I try Tarte's Rainforest foundation so he gave me a samples. I was really excited to try it because it is water based, doesn't use any harsh chemicals in their products, is cruelty free and vegan friendly. Tried it the next morning going to work and right away once I applied it I could tell it wasn't going to work but I gave it all day to see how it went. Unfortunately this foundation just didn't work for my skin, it become very patchy throughout the day and clung to all areas on my face, and it did take a bit of product to build up to where I like it to be. The consistency is pretty watery and coverage could do anything from light to low end full coverage. It is pretty pricey at $51 CDN at Sephora, the only good thing about it was that it kept me pretty matte throughout the day. Packaging is in a glass bottle with a dropper for a dispenser which I don't have a problem with and the colors of their packaging were super cute. -

I think I found my new hairspray!! This stuff is great, it smells fantastic like oranges but not overwhelming and the hold is great, it doesn't allow my hair to move at all if I don't want it to. Price is great at $2.50 CDN you can't go wrong and the other thing I love about it is, the smell of the spray doesn't choke you when breathing as some hairsprays do. -

I love the smell of this stuff!! Price is great also at $2.50 CDN you really can't go wrong with it. It does give you volume but in a very subtle way which is why for effectiveness i took off a star and a half. If I am comparing it to my prev. volumizng mousse which was the Aussie one, it doesn't"look" like you have product in your hair which depending on what you like it might be a good thing, for me it's great because I don't like my hair to feel or look like I have tons of product in it which this doesn't, i just wish it had a bit more to it when I style my hair. -

I really hate moisturizers that have SPF in them as most of moisturizers out there leave my skin feeling really greasy and usually lead to breakouts. I have to say that this one however does neither, I received this as a sample and was pleasantly surprised by it. The consistency isn't overly thick and it spreads easily, it doesn't have the sunscreen smell to it which i really hate and it absorbs into the skin really nice without leaving my face feeling greasy. I think it also adds some glow to my face, and doesn't break me out which usually happens. -
