I've tried many liquid eyeliners, this being one of them, and wasn't very impressed.
I'm very easy to please when it comes to liquid liners as they generally tend to go on well and stay put (don't have oily lids).
This one is o-kaaaay....nothing to write home about. My biggest beef with this liner is that it dries up really fast! You pay $9 for a product that doesn't even last very long!
I've tried other cheaper but more effective alternatives, which is why I wouldn't recommend this to anyone.

Jean Paul Gaultier for Women
I love love love this perfume!!! It's not an overpowering headache inducing scent, but not so subtle that it's unnoticeable either. It's just a very feminine sexy scent that I feel goes with everything! I have other favourites too... +
I love love love this perfume!!! It's not an overpowering headache inducing scent, but not so subtle that it's unnoticeable either. It's just a very feminine sexy scent that I feel goes with everything!
I have other favourites too (Alfred Sung Chi, Elizabeth Arden red door, etc.) but for some reason I keep coming back to this one.
For those who haven't tried it, I highly recommend this perfume!!

I used to use this way back when and loved it. Since then I tried many products from drugstore to high end, but ultimately came back to this one. It has small granules that I feel cleans my face without being too harsh. My skin is brighter, smoother and more even in tone after every use.
Last night my mom asked why I put on makeup before going to sleep...I didn't! I had just washed my face with this cleanser/scrub!!
I have very dry skin but it doesn't dry me out at all. Of course I moisturize right after. My face actually looks clean and bright instantly. I don't know what makes it work so well, but I know I will keep using it. I highly recommend this to one and all!!

I normally have very dry skin so I was a bit skeptical about this product.
So far I'm finding it that it sufficiently moisturizes my skin. I don't notice any dryness, flakyness or rough patches even though this is a lotion and not a cream. It gets absorbed very quickly and provides a good base for my makeup.
It has SPF 30 which is perfect for summer days in Toronto!!! Despite the relatively high SPF it doesn't leave any sort of film on my skin.
The only two things I don't like about this product is it could stand to be a bit more moisturizing, and I wish it had some anti-aging age prevention ingredient in it.
Although I know this lotion won't cut it in winter time, it is perfect for the summer days. I would definately recommend this.

I got this product from a Hello In Style party gift bag. I've been using it consistently for the last week or so just so I can give an honest review on how well it performs.
The first day I used it, it was amazing! Blackest of black thick long lashes...gorgeous!! After a few uses though I found that it clumps easily if you're not careful. I examined and found that the bristles on this brush are longer than normal and soft. I think that's why it holds a lot more of the product than necessary and this causes the clumping.
I also find that around evening my lashes tend to drop and it does crumb just a little bit. All in all I would recommend this mascara. It's a good drugstore mascara.
There are other better ones out there imo, but this one can definately be classified as one of the top ten drugstore mascara.

I've had so many treatments at this spa, and each one has been fabulous! From body wraps, to scrubs, to massages, and even a wash & blowdry for my hair have all been amazing.
Regardless of what you go in for, you have unlimited access to the sauna, the themed relaxation rooms that have candles, soft music, etc. all the herbal teas and fruits available there.
The staff are very friendly and professional. The atmosphere is extremely relaxing, you really can't tell that you're in downtown Toronto!!
They even have an in-house salon - Domenico & Drea - again staff there are very friendly, upbeat and really know their stuff. You go in, and they really listen. You can tell they are doing their best to make it special for you. You even get gourmet tea/coffee during the service! I got my wash & blow dry done here and everyone complimented me on my hair! I even overheard some commenting to eachother how it's so shiny they were wondering if it was real ..lol
You can see their available services and prices on their website: http://www.novospa.ca/
I highly recommend this to everyone...its an unbeatable experience.

I tried it on my legs and was amazed at the results! My legs had the just-waxed feeling without any pain to go with it!! So lucky of me to have bought it on a sale! NOT!!! The next morning I woke up to not only harsh stubble on my legs, but parts of my legs actually looked like it had black burn marks on them!!
It's been over a month and now my legs are starting to get a bit back to normal...
I wouldn't recommend this to anyone

This is the best moisturizing body cream I've used by far!!! it leaves my skin feeling smooth and silky, doesn't wear out after a while, and doesn't leave any greasy traces either.
One of my co-workers has such extremely dry hands, his doctor actually gave him thick prescription cream. He tried this cream from me and even he liked it.
I got two bottles, one for my room, one for work, and I actually bought a third bottle for my parents so they can use it too... thats how much I love it.
I would give this two thumbs up.. I got this from CA but I know for sure once I run out I'll be running out to buy myself more.

I was really excited to try this product I received through the CA review club, and I'm glad to say I wasn't disapointed.
I have very dry skin so I always use bodywash as oppose to soaps which I find tend to try out my skin more. In the past Dove shampoos and conditioners have impressed me with their moisturizing quality, and i certainly wasn't disapointed with their bodywash!! It is very thick and moisturizing, and definately does the job of keeping my skin soft and supple. The only thing I would improve is the smell. It does smell a bit wierd, but besides that this product works great! My mom loves it too! And I've already recomended it to my friends :)

I gave this book full marks because it deserves it. This book is everything 'Sophie Kinsella' - witty, funny, quirky, girly, etc .... on top of all that, this book really made me think. Many parts in the book made me do a double take, as if the Sadie and/or Lara were talking about me. This book is so lighthearted that perhaps the deep insights regarding relationships are missed. If they are missed, its definately worth a second, third, fouth ....read.
This is definately a wonderful, fun, light read, however it also really makes one think.
I am a huge Sophie Kinsella fan and have read all her writings. This book is already a valued part of my collection. I would and do recommend this book to anyone.
