I don't normally spurge for a facial and often wonder about all the poking and picking... but this time was different. Rose Jordan has been giving facials for over 20 years. She took her time (1.5 hrs) and explained the products. She used high-end products and all the latest technology. I am going to make a facial part of my beauty regimen. The total of $100 was well worth it. -
Dove Nutritive Solutions Daily Moisture Shampoo
Dove shampoos and conditions are all great. They smell nice and are effective. Dove has become more expensive over the past few years but its products are still great and worth it.

This cream is amazingly moisturizing but pricey. It’s heavy in consistency and bit greasy. Great for a cold day if you’re outside for several hours. The bottle is also prone to creasing and breaking and causing cream to come out the crack. It works very well but the price is too much. Other creams work well too. -
Burt's Bees Pomegranate Moisturizing Lip Balm
I like the concept of this brand as healthy but it doesn't work. My lips feel parched after 10 min and I need to reapply. I would pass on this. The colour is nice but the effectiveness just doesn't cut it.

L'Oréal Paris Elnett Satin Extra Strong Hold Hairspray

This spray did what it said it would - good hold and disappeared easily when brushed. I like the look of the bottle - retro - but the smell isn't fruity like you might expect. It smells like hair spray - chemically or like a salon. The light coverage is great if you're wearing your hair down and want a bit of control but not stiff. -
Pantene Pro-V Blonde Expressions
I highlight my hair every so often and wanted to be sure I was using a product that didn't dry it out and helped preserve the colour. The lather was great and the small is nice too. I can't say that I've noticed a big difference in this... +
I highlight my hair every so often and wanted to be sure I was using a product that didn't dry it out and helped preserve the colour. The lather was great and the small is nice too. I can't say that I've noticed a big difference in this specialized line verse a shampoo for any hair colour. But it does make me feel better and that I'm trying to hold onto the blonde a little longer... The price is reasonable so it makes sense to use a specialized shampoo, even if it helps just a little. -
Clorox Disinfecting Wipes
The wipes are great for sanitizing but less effective for leaving a surface that shines… I find they leave a residue and the surface requires a second cleaning! They are very useful for the office to wipe down your head set, phone, key board etc.

This mascara comes in an attractive package and the name is cool too but the product is just ok. It goes on smooth and covers well but didn't hold my curl; it weighed down my lashes. I won't be switching mascaras to this one. I find L'Oreal Volumous better overall. -
L’Oréal Paris Voluminous Original Mascara
I have fair blonde lashes so mascara and is must in my beauty routine. This mascara is my favourite - it holds the curl and add lots of volume. I tried several and this one works better than most mascaras.

Exuberance Believe Tangerine & Sugar Maple Facial Tonic

The product packaging is gorgeous - really stylish and chic. It's something you would find at Holt Renfrew and be proud to give as a gift. I love that it's made from organic products. I'm not 100% convinced that toner is a necessary step in a skin care regime - I'm no toner expert - so I'm ok with the cheaper stuff like plain Witch Hazel from a health food store. If this toner is must for you then you'll love the smell and feel good about its natural ingredients. You'll even enjoy leaving it out of the bathroom counter because it just looks good. -
