I love how easily you can create a feathered or winged out look with the sponge tip that comes with the liner.The formula itself is very workable. I often smudge off the edges that need to be fixed. I wouldn't say it necessarily has all-day wear though, as it starts to smudge off bit by bit throughout the day if I'm out for a while.
This is a great liner for people who have sensitive eyes, who love to create different looks with their eyeliner, and people who get watery eyed.
It does smudge to your lower lash line pretty easily so I wouldn't recommend wearing it if you're going to be active and sweating (although it's supposed to be waterproof), but otherwise I think it's okay.
All-in-all, it's a great liner for being creative, but I only use it when I know I won't be too active.

Cake Beauty Satin Sugar Hair and Body Refreshing Powder

I decided to try this after reading the reviews here on ChickAdvisor.
I was looking for something to use between washes. I generally wash my hair every day, but I'm trying to push it to every other day to keep from over-washing my hair.
This product works really fast to absorb any oil in your hair or on your body, and leaves your hair and skin with a fresh cinnamonny scent. I have black hair, so after using the powder, it give my hair a more matte look, which sometimes makes me worry if it's too obvious. But I'd rather be matte than greasy!
The canister isn't too large, so I take it with me whenever I know I'll be out and active for a while. Makes your hair look like you just washed it!

I love this little coffee shop that opened in our building!
The whole feel of it is very unique and rustic, just the way I like my coffee shops. I love how some of their menu items are categorized into different flavor groupings - different from many generic coffee shops. They really do know their stuff!
I had the cappuccino which was very frothy, with a smooth aftertaste. I didn't taste the overwhelming bitterness of the coffee that I usually do, even in cappuccinos. It was fantastic.
Their prices are great too. I'll definitely make this my morning coffee spot!
They also make ice cream using liquid nitrogen and cream, which I am so excited to try! Can't wait!

I literally had different flavors of dolce gusto throughout the ENTIRE WEEK at LG Fashion Week S/S 2011.
All of the different flavors were fantastic. Everything was so creamy and frothy, and the perfect blend.
I love the science behind it too! The machine, when in use, uses high pressure to boil water instantly. The water is then filtered through powdered forms of dairy, coffee, etc to bring you the perfect blend of whatever it is you choose to indulge in.
Love it.

BEST LIP BALM I'VE EVER TRIED!
This is actually an anti-aging lip balm that has a dual-layer formula with CoQ10 and Ceramide. Ceramide locks in moisture and provides effective protection for chapped and sensitive lips. It lasts all day. Before I tried this lip balm I was struggling with dry and peeling lips. I wasn't expecting this to work so well, but it surprised me and exceeded my expectations. I've been recommending it to all my friends!

So I just finished wolfing down half of this bar because it's just SO good!!
I tried it in the Ginger flavour, which I really like. There are small pieces of candied ginger throughout the bar, and the ginger flavour is not too strong which makes it the perfect blend of ginger and dark chocolate.
It's not too sweet not too bitter either. I can't believe it's organic!

This new line of CG lipstick is meant to hydrate and transform your lips to perfection in 7 days. I got this color in Rich, which is really more of a beige-y maroon color that matches my natural lip color nicely, and Rush, a flushed red color with a hint of sheer (This one's my favorite). I did notice that the lipstick was moisturizing with great lasting power that doesn't take a load of make-up remover to take off. I would definitely recommend this line of lipstick for a nice matte finish and a great selection of colors! -

I bought this product as a last resort to hydrate my dry, brittle, permed hair, and a way to make straightening easier.
This product does make straightening easier while making your hair smell great, although I found it to be a little bit too thick and greasy for my hair. It does help a bit with straightening, but not as well as I had anticipated. Although it does keep your hair more moisturized.

My daily facial routine can't go without this product! This hydrating gel really brings moisture back into your skin. My skin used to have dry patches around the cheek areas, but this gel seemed to moisturize the dry parts and even out my skin.
Although this product is new to North Americans, it really is a must-have for people with combination or dry skin. This type of hydrating gel really works wonders, and I can't imagine my skin routine without it!

As the Jo Malone website describes it: "Through a blend of mandarin, sacred lotus blossom, bamboo and aloeswood, Lotus Blossom & Water Lily will encourage energy, inspire confidence and focus the mind, making it a perfect scent to use throughout the day."
I like more floral and fruity scents, and this fragrance puts me on the fence. Though the scent of the lotus blossom and water lily to shine through, it is overpowered by a strong woody scent that I'm not sure I quite appreciate. It is a very complex aroma that is unique and a treasure, but I still prefer my straight floral perfumes.
Great for both day and evening wear.
