Love this particular Normaderm product, it's always a go-to. It works well to keep skin at bay and helps to clear up acne causing bacteria deep in pores and deeply refines pores. I absolutely love the scent of this as well! Very clean and fresh. Lightweight and oil free. Has high quality Salicylic acid + LHA which helps to unclog your pores and assists with the skinscell turn over. The formula was recently improved and I've yet to try the new version but I assume it's better than ever! Worth the $30 especially when on sale at Shoppers. I recommend either using this every other day since it does dry your skin out a bit. I found it worked the best when combined with another product that is slightly more hydrating! -

This oil smells sooooo good, like apricots. It's my go-to favourite Burt's Bees product and I've used this one since forever ago. It sucks that the company was long bought out by Clorex - but the formula hasn't changed a bit so I continue to purchase this. A little goes along way so it's good for it's value. The best method for applying it is to add a tiny bit in the bath to moisturize your skin with little effort! -

My very favourite line! I've been using this ever since it came out on the market. Was disappointed when L'oreal bought it out since they changed the concentrated formula which lowered the quality a bit... but it's STILL a wonderful product alongside the Hydrate conditioner. It's worth the investment in your hair health! A little bit goes a long way, doesn't lather a whole lot but this is because it's sulfate free which preserves your hair color and hair's overall health. A $30 bottle lasts me about 6 months. Protects haircolor, keeps it soft, shiny, manageable, protects hair from damage. It ACTUALLY does what most claim to do. It's the real deal. Buy some and try for yourself! Oh, and it's VEGAN! Bonus. -

This oil is amazing! I ditched the rest of my serums after first trying the product because it's that good. It's costly but worth it, especially considering the fact that you only need to use just this one product! Smells really nice, a light florally scent. Smoothes the cuticle, adds shine, it's very lightweight and won't weigh fine hair down. Can be applied before a blowout or after to tame flyaways. A little goes a long way so it's worth the money in that sense. Quality vs. quanity is key when it comes to hair.
Would def recommend!!

Garnier Skin Renew Miracle Skin Perfector BB Cream for Combination to Oily Skin

This BB cream smells great (but that most likely means it's loaded with chemicals, which it is!) and gives your skin a nice overall healthy glow. I bought it on clearance so I didn't have the opion of trying the oily-combo skin formula otherwise I would have tried that instead. I have acne prone skin and I find though it gives me a nice glow, once my skin becomes oily throughout the day, it looks really greasy and feels gross. It also wears off because of this and clogs up my pores like crazy, giving me more acne! I recommend putting a light dusting of setting powder on afterwards to prolong it's wear and keep oil slicks at bay. It can be on the orange'y side if you're between that medium & dark tone so beware ladies but works fine with a tan in the summer.
I find the price point to be a bit high considering it's a cheaper drugstore brand and would say for a proper BB cream (although this was one of the original BB creams on the market), spend the extra $10 and get a higher quality brand.

This product really does smooth your hair cuticle and allows it to stay straight up until your next wash. I find when I don't use it and blowdry my hair like usual, it's always curlier the next morning (especially on the ends where it gets kinky) than if I use this upon blowdrying. I usually mix this in a cocktail with my serums because it can leave your hair feeling a little dry without the extra backup of other products. Overall, I think for a cheap drugstore brand, it does what it says it does! And the price point is great, cost me $5 on sale at Shoppers and I've had it for about 9 months. -

I was a bit disappointed with this brow kit. I am a level 5 brunette so my brows are naturally quite dark. I went with the medium color pallete and found it too be very warm and a bit orangy which was VERY noticible when applied to my brows. I think this forumla would have been much better off if it were a cooler brown, that way it wouldn't stand out when applied and would be more universal for people's different colors of dark brows. Coming from Rimmel, I don't know? I find the products are hit or miss and had issues with another product of theirs I recently bought (Mascara).. Anyhow, I'd say spend the extra bucks and go with a better product that is reputable and not just copying the trends. -

This mascara is just...meh. I went from using a very black and concentrated product to someting that barely feels like you're wearing anything, and not in a good way. It's more of a waxier formula and takes ages to apply and dries quickly so the second layer isn't a breeze. If you like your lashes to look like you're barely wearing anything then perhaps this is a good one but considering it's called "Scandaleyes Reloaded" & claims to give you that extreme volume effect, I'd say it missed the buck on this one..... womp womp. -

I love this BB cream, it's def one of my fav's for acne prone skin! I have oily skin that breaks out very easily and my pores get clogged up with makeup so this BB cream really helps with all of this. It covers well and leaves your skin with a matte finish that's not cakey but very natural and radiant! It has a water-based gel consistency which goes on smooth and doesn't weigh your face down like some do. -
