This is a new formula for Colourpop. It comes in a bunch of bright shades for summer. I have the shades Zuma and Cherry on Top. Zuma is the perfect nudey-rose everyday lip, while cherry ontop is a deep purple stain (think clinique's black honey). The formula of these is very thin and liquidy and dries down with almost a powder-like consistency. They look like stains when applied, but are matte. These are transfer proof when dry, but will come off while eating and drinking. They are not as drying as a typical liquid lip, but make sure you use a lipscrub first, because if you have dry/cracked lips to start with, the product will emphasize it. I am really enjoying these and I think Cherry on top will be my go-to shade for summer. With the price point of colourpop, you can't go wrong! -

I recently got this product when Tarte had their Mother's Day bundle deal. I was excited to try this, because you can only get it at Ulta - no Canadian stores sell it. I love this foundation! I am a pretty good match for Tarte's Light Neutral shade, and have found this shade to work for me across lines and formulas, so I ordered it online. I was happy that it matched when I got it! The packaging is a bit odd for a foundation, as it comes in a jar, like how a moisturizer would. You have to dip into the goopy product to scoop it out and apply it. This doesn't bother me that much since I usually apply this foundation at home with the buffer brush (and use a spatula to keep it sanitary). If you typically do your makeup on the go (in a car for example), this may be a little messy for you! I found the wear was awesome! I have dry/normal skin and it is so hydrating and smooth. It does not look cakey at all. It gives medium coverage with a dewey (not sparkly) radiance to it that looks really fresh in my opinion. I do set it with Laura Mercier's powder, so it doesn't budge. I find it wears well for a solid 8+ hours. I am really enjoying this foundation! -

I really like the brush! I originally bought it to be a flat top kabuki type foundation brush, but it has a pretty small head, so took forever to do full face foundation. That being said, it lets you get HIGH coverage when using it. I use it now everyday to blend out my undereye concealer. The pointed angled end is able to get into the corner, and the dense flat bristles allow for finger-like blending and doesn't move the all over. You can stipple with it or use brush strokes. Its a pretty decent brush! -

I purchased the Keurig 2.0 k200 in white about a year ago. I am not a huge coffee drinker, but do enjoy it occasionally. My family loves coffee, so I mainly got this to serve to friends and family when they come over. I love that you can make other beverages such as hot chocolate and tea (which I make a lot!). And that you can customize each drink, so if people are over you can make everyone something different! (esspresso, french vanilla, dark roast, light roast, whatever!). It is really easy to use and maintain. I have noticed a couple times that the pods have opened while brewing and grinds have ended up in the drink (maybe 3 times out of 100). Im not sure if this is a problem with the brewer or the pods though! -

I am really enjoying this exfoliator! First off, I love that it's made with natural exfoliants, and not plastic beads. It does a really good job of getting of the dead skin cells, but it's still really gentle and doesn't irritate my skin at all. I like to use it 2x per week. I got the travel size of this product in my ChickAdvisor Premium welcome bag! -

I received a sample of this in my ChickAdvisor Premium welcome bag. I really liked the consistence of this moisturizer. It is very light-weight and liquidy. When you first squeeze it out it doesn't seem like it would be moisturizing at all, but it really is! I find it also has a slight cooling sensation. The moisture wasn't as long-lasting as I would have liked, but it still does a good job. The only thing I didn't like was the scent. It smelled like hairspray to me. -

I have this in the shades Exotic and Push-Up. They are great liquid lips! You can usually find them at Shoppers drug mart on sale for 8.99 which is great! The shades are neutral, but theres something for everyone. I looooove the shade Exotic. It is a perfect muted rosey-red that is a great "your lips but better" shade for me. I think this would look good on everyone! They are long lasting, and not too drying for a liquid lipstick (they are all drying!). I like the applicator - its not a typical doe-foot, it has a longer shape, so you are able to do you lips with less dips back into the container. It makes it really easy. These are great for everyday! -

This is the best at-home gel polish I've tried. I really does last 2 weeks+! They have great shades too. I currently have only 2 colours, cause they are expensive, but you can get them on sale at shoppers drug mart! You just take it off with regular nail polish too! No soaking needed. -

This is a tinted moisturizer from Tarte. I love that it has SPF 20 which is great for everyday wear. It has a light-sheer coverage, so it is very natural looking. More of a skin perfector than a foundation. I have it in the shade light and it blends out really nicely. It stays slightly tacky, so I like to set it with a bit of powder. It is very hydrating and doesn't settle in fine lines. You can still see your beauty marks, etc through it, but just gives a nice all over glow and makes your skin look naturally even. It also doesn't have a gross suncreen scent, which I like! -

Got this form my nephew. He is 4 months and just over 16 lbs. Helps him sit up straight! He loves it! You can also get a table top attachment for it so that they can do activities, or play on it like a tiny high chair! It says it is meant for up to one year, but he is so big already I don't see him being able to fit in it past 9 months at the most! -
