I tried a PR sample of this product in Innocent Nude. It's supposed to make your nails grow longer and stronger and honestly, I think it works.
I left mine on for a week, and usually my nails are cracking and breaking and growing unevenly in that time. It's also worth noting that usually when I use nail polish remover my nails are extra weak. But I took my polish off last night and my nails feel really strong. None cracked or broke - they are quite long (just at the edge of my finger, which is very long for me) and they grew really even.
I'm not a fan of the colour I chose, but I would absolutely buy this again in another colour. My nails look and feel amazing!

This movie is excellent. It literally had me cringing from start to finish - which at first I didn't like, but then I realized that it was exactly what it was supposed to do. It's a thriller so expect some very eerie parts, some gross parts, and some downright freaky parts.
I admit there were a couple times when I looked away from the screen because I was too scared to watch, but that's just me.
It's very well made, the acting is excellent, and it really messes with your mind! This movie is a definite must-watch! My only suggestion is if you scare easily (like me), don't watch it really late at night if you have to drive home to a dark, empty house -- I learned that the hard way.

No Strings Attached (2011)
This movie was so-so on the romantic comedy scale for me. No doubt there were some funny parts, but there were also some super cheesy parts. Rom-coms are supposed to have a little bit of "cheese" in them, but in this film I thought some were out... +
This movie was so-so on the romantic comedy scale for me. No doubt there were some funny parts, but there were also some super cheesy parts. Rom-coms are supposed to have a little bit of "cheese" in them, but in this film I thought some were out of place.
I'm glad I saw it and if you haven't and you're in the mood for a light-hearted flick you should check it out. But it's a one-time watch.

Maybelline New York Volum' Express One By One Mascara

I really think that Maybelline is always a great choice for mascara! They know how to give you great length and volume and the price is great. I've always been a fan.
I got to try a sample of One by One mascara courtesy of the brand and I'm very glad I did. It gives my lashes great definition and makes them look extremely long. What I like the best about One by One is that they updated the brush so that it isn't supposed to clump at all. When I first heard this I was skeptical, but I've been using it for a week now and it hasn't clumped yet.
I recommend this mascara.

Maybelline New York Fit Me Concealer

This concealer gave me medium coverage and it really blended in with my skin. It looks like I'm not wearing concealer when I have this on. It's great for covering up redness or under your eyes, but when I used it over a pimple, I didn't think it covered it enough.

This is a lightweight powder that leaves your skin looking glowy. I used it to set my concealer and it left my skin looking healthy and natural.
My one issue is that it is too light for my oily skin. It looked great when I first applied it, but I started getting oily really soon after. I think I need a powder that will combat the oil a little more.
I would certainly recommend this product to someone who doesn't have to deal with the oil that I do. It did leave my skin looking great until my oily glands ruined it!

I received a sample of this product courtesy of the brand. I tried the whole line and this is my favourite product. You only need to use very little of the product and it left my hair looking very shiny. I like to carry around little anti-frizz bottles around with me for special occasions when I might need a touch-up and this is something I would use for this. The texture is very light so I wasn't afraid to use too much. It didn't leave my hair oily at all. Thumbs up! -

I tried this hair cream with the entire product line. I was impressed. You use it to coat your hair after a shower. I left my hair feeling smooth and moisturized which was great. The first time I used it I did find that I had to really get in there to spread it out over all my hair. I'm usually hesitant to put too much product in my hair (especially when it's oil-based) in case it makes my hair look oily, but the second time I used this product I used a bit more and it didn't leave my hair oily at all. It's supposed to protect your hair from heat damage, which I find hard to comment on -- I always use thermo products in my hair before straightening/blow drying so I didn't really notice a difference.
I did like this product, but I'm still not willing to switch from my Fekkai Glossing Cream for it. But I'd recommend this product to someone on more of a budget as the quality was almost as good as Fekkai.
I received mine from the brand.

I am really impressed with this shampoo. I have dry hair so when I saw that this product was made with Argan Oil, I had high hopes that it would help give it some shine. And it delivered.
After shampooing and conditioning with this line, my hair felt smooth and soft. What I would really like is if L'Oreal could combine this Argan Oil formulation with something that is for colour treated hair. Now that would be my ideal shampoo!
I received my product as a sample from the brand.

I got a bottle of the senscience shampoo and conditioner for colour treated hair in a xmas gift pack from ChickAdvisor. I started using it after I got my hair freshly dyed and the colour has been preserved very well. I find that both the shampoo and conditioner lathered well and coated my hair nicely, without stripping it of all the natural oils like some shampoos do.
I thought these products provided a gentle but effective clean, smelled nice, and preserved my fresh dye.
I'd recommend this product.
