It can be really sticky though and not recommended for a windy day.
In all, a good shiny, pretty gloss.

I am a fan of Softlips, I have at least 10 of them. I used the cucumber one at night before bed to keep my lips from drying out from the electric heat in my place.
It goes on smoothly and the scent is not overpowering, the only issue I had was I was trying to find out how much product was left in the tube and it wouldn't go back down :( and broke off.
It can be hard to find in stores, I got mine at Zellers but I haven't seen it there since.
I would like them to make it in a larger tube or even in tub form.

I was chosen to try this product to review. I received 6 bottles of 3 flavors, Strawberry Lemonade, Black Blue berry and Acai apple and pear.
I dislike anything Blueberry so I gave those ones to my bf which he really seemed to enjoy and I had a taste and although I wasn't a fan, it was ok.
I liked the Strawberry Lemonade although the taste at first is unusual, it tastes good after, I also enjoyed the Apple one.
I liked that they use a Stevia extract but I still found it had an odd aftertaste which I account to not drinking some of it cold, which can be a hindrance as I can't always have it ice cold.
The shape of the bottles are handy, they fit in you hand well and don't tip over like some bottles do and it is made out of study plastic and I enjoyed the bottle's color scheme.
I'm not sure I would buy this product as I don't usually consume bottled water but I have a reuseable one but in all a good product and I appreciate the opportunity to test it out.

I was looking for something to help shrink my pores that wasn't drying and stumbled across this mask.
This mask comes in a 6oz tube packaging, which is very convenient as I can control the amount I want. According to the front of the tube, this mask claims to do deep pore cleansing and on the back of the tube it says that the strawberry extract helps to tone the skin and reduce the size of pores. There are also moisturizing ingredients like Shea and Cocoa butter in the mask. This mask also claims to be suitable for oily t-zones, for normal and dry skin types.
It comes out looking like chocolate mousse and you slather it on your face and neck avoiding the eye area, let dry then rinse off with warm water. The mask tightens as it dries and removes debris and residual makeup in the process.
The smell isn't overpowering but doesn't smell like real chocolate and strawberries but they are listed in the ingredients. It makes skin soft after rinsing. I would only recommend using it a couple of times a week depending on how oily your skin is.

I prefer glass nail files on my nails because I find them easier to use and more hygienic than emery boards and because I recently broke mine I was in search for a new one.
I found the Quo one after much searching, I found the price a little steep but compared to the Revlon for $13.99 it was a steal.
The Quo glass file has 2 filing sides which was surprising since my last one only had the one side. It is about 5 inches long and has a black velvet storing pouch, it does a good job shaping nails and depending on how much pressure you use, it can take off a lot of nail or just a little .
The only thing I dislike about it is that it's a little plain looking, with an opaque handle whereas my previous one was blue, but in all a lifetime nail file (assuming you don't step on it )

I got this polish because I loved the color, it's called Gray's Anatomy. Not quite sure how they came up with the name, I guess because it looks a little gray but mostly it's silver with purple and green undertones.
It lives up to it's Fast Dry name because it dried in record time. The initial first coat was a little thin for a test and the color was slightly opaque but with more coats the color will show through. It covers well and is a good thickness not too thin but no big globs.
They have many other great looking colors that I'm looking forward to getting if they come on sale.

I love this lip balm, sweet and very moisturizing. No color but has a delicate sheen to it.
Hard to find as it is only a limited Winter Edition and comes with either a mint flavor or a vanilla one, I carried mine around everywhere but lost it in the laundry.
Has a SPF of 20 and can be used under other lip glosses.

Avon PERFECT WEAR Extralasting Lip Gloss in endless watermelon. It's an ok lip gloss, I like the size of 12 oz means it won't get empty too quickly but I'm not a fan of the smell, it's supposed to be watermelon I think but it has a plastic smell to it.
On the plus, it does last a long time and doesn't budge like some but it doesn't last 12 hours. The watermelon color is pretty but I also got Infinite Berry and it was way too dark but it doesn't feather.
I would get it again but would like it to be cheaper though.

Lip plumper from Avon. It's supposed to adjust to your skin’s chemistry to enhance your natural lip color. Goes on clear…blossoms into your very own rosy glossy color. It had absolutely no effect on my lips, no rosy color change and no plumping. It just got on my teeth and made my lips feel tingly but the sensation didn't last long.
It contains Capsicum which is supposed to increase blood flow to lips to make them look plumper but no change. I found it didn't last long and was sticky, I had my hair stick to it more than once. I still have it but only as an emergency lip gloss and because I paid too much for it, otherwise it would've been in the bin long ago.

I was looking for a brown mascara that wasn't too light or too dark and this one is perfect. It doesn't clump but can be tricky to remove but the color lasts all day. I couldn't tell if it made my lashes longer looking though but for $2 it's great in a pinch. -
