I bought this mascara because it was advertised as America's Number 1 Mascara and it was super cheap at Walmart. I was super excited to use it but it failed me :( I didn't do anything to my lashes at all. I gave it to my mom to try and it didn't help her either. Sad to say, it is not on my top list! :( -

Once you step into this restaurant, you will be greeted by all sushi chefs and waitresses who are all dressed in kimono's. The place is very nicely decorated and very clean.
I had the all you can eat menu which only runs from 2-6 PM on Monday-Friday for $13.99. They have lunch specials as well as dinner a la carte.
The selection is different from the other all you can eat places but very impressive none the less. They don't offer your typical appetizers like beef ribs and such but they have authentic raw fish like UNI, HAMACHI and baked oyster! These aren't offered at other all you can eat places, which makes this place worth it!
They have the special dragon rolls and all the other rolls that people are familiar with. The sushi pizza is quite different here but a delectable choice! It's usually deep fried rice topped with salmon, but at this restaurant, it's on a bed of rice topped with spicy sauce, salmon, seaweed and tobiko. It is deliciously light and easy to eat. The tempura isn't so flaky but just the right batter to make it crispy. The fish are fresh and just melts in your mouth! The food over all at this place is great!
**note: The signs outside the restaurant says Nikada but their menus inside say Mikada. So I'm not sure which name they refer themselves to. They had just opened about a month ago so maybe they're still undecided about their name? I don't know, but if you're going to google the restaurant, I suggest typing in both!
The location of this restaurant is on Mc Nicoll Avenue and Kennedy Road.

Maybelline New York Lash Stiletto Mascara

I bought this mascara for the name and for a change. Sadly it did not give me the effects it was promising me. I found that it was too watery and it didn't give my lashes the full lengthening that it says it would. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone that doesn't have long lashes.
This would be good for people with long lashes with the effects of curling their lashes. Other than that, this product would not be useful for anyone else.
I would recommend L'Oreal Telescopic Carbon Black Mascara for full lengthening (I've written a review for this product also).

I use this cleanser before I go to sleep and I must say with every usage, I see a difference in my skin starting on the first day. The first time you use this cleanser, you will see how smaller your pores look and your face will glow! I highly recommend this cleanser as I've made my boyfriend start to use it too! Even with rough skin as his, there was a noticeable difference in his skin and how much it had cleared up.
I have recommended this cleaner to many of my friends and they all love it as much as I do! I usually buy it at Walmart for $11 and it lasts me more than 5 months (with every usage). Shopper's Drug Mart would sell it around $13-15.
It's an anti-aging product but it's never too late to start caring about your skin. Now we can look young forever ;)
Here is a list of benefits the Olay 7-in1 Revitalizing Foaming Cleanser brings:
1. Thorough Cleansing
2. Natural Moisture Balance
3. Pore Appearance Reduction
4. Line Appearance Minimization
5. Radiance Enhancement
6. Maintains Softness
7. Gentle Purification

Olay Total Effects 7 in 1 Anti-Aging Daily Moisturizer

I've been using this moisturizer for about 5 years (I'm turning 21 soon) and I wouldn't want to switch to any other brand! It is light and non greasy and keeps my skin hydrated throughout the day. It doesn't clog pores nor does it cause oily skin! I have normal to dry skin and this moisturizer never fails me for all 4 seasons. PLUS it has SPF15!
This line of moisturizer comes with different variations that is suitable to your likings. I'm currently using the Touch of Foundation that adds a "sheer foundation to delicately even out skin's tone". It doesn't give you the cakey look like foundations do but rather it doesn't even look like you have any cover up on at all! Touch of Foundation would do very little for you if you do use foundation because it is very very sheer. I've also used the Touch of Sun which gives you a hint of a tan. There's also a fragrance or non-fragrance that is suitable for what you like.
Here is what the Brand advertises about this line:
1. Line Minimization: Reduces the appearance of fine wrinkles
2. Nourishing Moisturization: For a radiant, healthy glow
3. Tone Enhancement: Balances color & reduces appearance of age spots
4. Gentle Exfoliation: Smoothes and evens skin texture
5. Pore Refinement: Minimizes the appearance of pores
6. Free Radical Defense: Helps prevent damage to skin's surface
7. Subtle Lifting: Hydrates for firmer skin appearance
I would usually buy this at Walmart for $19.98. Shopper's would sell it at $28.98 (so buy it at Walmart!)
I've tried other moisturizers that would dry out my face or even slightly burn it, and others would make it way too oily so this is the perfect one for me!
I use this product after washing my face every morning and it lasts me until the end of the day. Before bedtime I wash my face with the Olay 7-in-1 Total Effects Revitalizing Foaming Cleanser (which I will post a review for).

Finally a place with vegetarian sushi that doesn't just serve your typical avocado/cucumber rolls! This place has all mock meats (including fish). They serve the whole wide range of sushi that you would usually find at sushi restaurants like sushi pizza, dragon rolls, tempura, etc. We found this place a delightful experience with delicious food.
The price is very affordable and more or less cheaper than real sushi restaurants (vegetarian restaurants are usually expensive). The simple rolls (like spicy salmon roll) varies from $3.75-4.75 and their specialty rolls like dragon rolls go from $7-9. My family got a platter of 42 pieces that consisted of sashimi, dragon rolls, simple rolls and sushi all for $32.
The salmon sushi pizza is delicious. The mock fish doesn't exactly tastes like what it's supposed to but they still taste really good! They have Chinese vegetarian dishes as well but more of an emphasis on their sushi bar. We ordered the Chinese fried rice with salted fish and it tasted like the real deal (SO GOOD!) and the price was about $8 if I recall correctly. The dish was quite large, probably about 6-7 servings.
I highly recommend this place for vegetarians but also for those who love to try new places. It was a great experience for me (I'm a sushi addict and my parents are full time vegetarians). The only downside to this place, it is currently cash only. So be prepared when you come!

Essie Nail Polish

Alot of people tend to stick with the famous OPI brand because it's been around longer. Little do people know that OPI's quality does not match the ones of Essie's. Essie may not have as much colours as OPI but their polish lasts longer and stay true to the colour that you intially applied on to your nails.
Essie's colours stay shiny much longer and does not stain your nails as other nail polishes do. Also, as mentioned before, the colour that you applied on your nails do not dull down or lose it's colour once it's been worn (a bright red will stay bright red and not turn dull and dark).
The price is much cheaper than the leading OPI and has a wide variety of neutral colours as well as reds and other shades. I highly recommend Essie as it's quality is superb!

I love this mascara! This is the only mascara that I've used that dramatically makes my lashes longer. The brush is different from your typical brushes and elongates each lash one by one.
I tend to apply about 3 coats if I want the lashes to look voluminous but usually a couple of strokes would give you the amazing luscious look. When I wear this mascara, people ask me if I'm wearing false lashes =P
I would usually buy this product at Walmart since it would be cheaper ($9.95?) compared to Shoppers Drug Mart ($12.95?). I've been using it since it came out and have also tried other countless mascaras but none has delivered the job like this one does.
I highly recommend it!
