I like the subtle/natural glow that I get from this product, but it can be tricky to apply because it's liquid. You have to be careful not to use too much product, and be precise with how you try and blend it out. I find that brushes and fingers don't work well because it can make it apply patchy, so you'd likely be better off using a blending sponge to apply it. Overall it's okay once you figure out how to apply it, but I probably wouldn't get it again. -

Everyone on review sites raved about this product and is been meaning to buy it. I ended up winning it in a Facebook giveaway from Rexall. I like the colour, and it swatches well. But I’m not sure if it’s the product, my skin tone, or the brushes I’ve been using, but I can’t seem to get it to give me a nice and noticeable glow. I can only seem to get a subtle glow. I still like it though and when I finish it I’d like to try some of their other colours. -

I was looking for a new go-to liquid liner to wear everyday. I despise felt tipped liners, which seems to be all any makeup brands sell nowadays. I had a lovely employee at Shoppers help me find something with a fine brush tip and they showed me this brand. I had never heard of Vasanti before buying this, but I really like that it's 100% Canadian owned and operating out of the GTA, and 95% of their products are manufactured in Canada.
This liquid liner has such a fine tip for perfect lines. It's formula is smudge proof and sweat proof, and has a matte finish. I've been rained on without having the liner budge, and I cried while watching a sad video about a dog on YouTube without it budging too. It lasts all day without fading or flaking away.
The only concern that I have is that the brush is that it's almost a little too thin. It can be hard to pick up product with it, which means I'm constantly dipping to get more product on the brush. I don't think I'd tackle a wicked thick cat eye with this liner. Maybe trace the outline and do the fine tip of a cat eye with it, but I'd probably fill it out with a different liner. But this product is amazing for an everyday natural look, which is what I wanted from it.

I received this product to test and review from Chick Advisor. I've been trying this product for about a week now, and so far I'm really loving it! The smell was unexpected, as I've tried clay masks before and they usually smell earthy. This product smelled clean and fresh, very much of aloe, and I couldn't smell the mint. I love how soft the scent is.
The product fights acne 3 ways: by absorbing excess oil and washing away impurities, by treating pimples without overdrying skin, and by helping prevent future breakouts.
You can use the product 2 ways: as a cleanser and as a mask. As a mask, the product is extremely gentle on the skin, and doesn't make my face tingle after it's been on for a couple minutes like other masks. As a cleanser, the product is still gentle, and makes the skin feel soft and clean. I find my face is a little dry after use, so I always apply moisturizer after cleansing.
In all, I really enjoy this product and would definitely recommend it. I find it comparable in price and effectiveness to my favourite drugstore brand Bioré. It's made my skin feel and look very clean and has helped fight my acne breakouts.

Silly Cow Farms Hot Chocolate
Honestly not my favourite hot chocolate. Got it as a gift. I find that it tastes rather bland compared to other brands. The Marshmallow Swirl flavour is a little sweeter than the regular chocolate one though.

Nescafe Rich Hazelnut
Tastes better than I expected. Honestly better than some of my Keurig K-Cup brand coffees. Plus it's not as wasteful as using plastic K-cups every day. Strongly tastes and smells of hazelnut! Very yummy.

I was sent a coupon to try this out from Chick Advisor. I'm struggling with becoming more and more lactose intolerant as I age. A few years ago, eating ice cream didn't bother me. Now, causes horrible cramps that make me wish for death. Ben & Jerry's may be expensive, but it's a nice treat once in a while considering that I can't have ice cream anymore.
The taste is yummy. I tried one of their fudge ones in the past that I wasn't fond of. It was rich in flavour, and the texture was too off compare to the ice cream that I'm used to. This Coconut Almond Fudge Chip flavour is so yummy though! The texture is what I'm used to, and the taste is so yummy! It's like vanilla ice cream but with coconut flakes and chocolate chunks inside. You will want to thaw our the ice cream a bit before you eat it though. Maybe its because its dairy free, but tends to freeze rock solid.

I really like this primer. Chick Advisor sent me a sample to test and review. It applies very easily and feels almost like a moisturizer.The smell is very citrusy+earthy, kind of like lime and basil. It makes my makeup last at least 8-10 hours. I also like how its silicone free and made from more natural ingredients compared to other brands. There's no synthetic ingredients or preservatives. And its cruelty-free! -
Annabelle Cosmetics Skinny Brow Liner

I tried buying Anastasia Brow Wiz and returned it within 24 hours. It didn't create lines very easily, and the pencil portion flew out of the packaging and snapped. If top of the line products wouldn't work for me, what would?
So I tried this liner buy Anabelle on the recommendation of an employee at Shoppers. I'm so glad I did! It glides onto my skin without too much effort, which means I'm not dragging the product across my brows and ripping out hairs. The colour Universal Taupe works AMAZING on my blonde, barely-there brows. Most blonde shades look orangey or weird on blondes. It also never needs to be sharpened and is made pretty durable so that the pencil won't snap. And this product was only about $10 give or take. This is my go-to drugstore brow pencil!

Listerine Smart Rinse Mouthwash
To be honest, I bought this because it was on sale 2/$5. It was cheaper than the adult stuff. I like the bubblegum taste, and I didn’t even realize it had a portioned way to use it when I bought it. You squeeze the sides and it fills to 10ml, and... +
To be honest, I bought this because it was on sale 2/$5. It was cheaper than the adult stuff. I like the bubblegum taste, and I didn’t even realize it had a portioned way to use it when I bought it. You squeeze the sides and it fills to 10ml, and anything extra drains back into the bottle. It’s convenient. And it turns bacteria in my mouth blue which is always fun to spit into the sink (warning. You’ll now have to rinse your sink after every use or you’ll get blue particles in there all the time). I don’t care that it’s marketed towards kids, I’m a grown woman and I love this stuff. -
