This is probably my favourite of all the razors I tried, next to the original. i like that it doesn't have the "soap" attached to it and is simple and easy to use and keep. The shave is nice and close, but I don't neccessarily think its much closer than the original blades.
I really liked the easy to open packaging and would definitely think about purchasing the replacement blades for this one!!

I received a sample of this razor as part of Chick Advisor's review club.
I used this just last night and I did enjoy the silky feeling my legs had after using this product with attached shave soap. though I did notice it got a little slimey near the end, and it melted pretty quickly. I'm not sure how long it would actually last. Also I'm not a huge fan of the attached soap bars in general, so this wasn't my favourite product. But my legs are still soft today and I think it has to do with the lovely Olay moisturizers...
I'm so/so on this. I still love the tried and true Original Venus razor blades....

I received this razor from Chick Advisor as part of the Review Club.
This one I didn't love as much as the original Venus Razor. I'm not a big fan of the attached "shaving lotion bars". I find they start to "melt" and get a little goopy. Sure, they make my legs feel soft and smooth, but I find that the regular Venus does this as well. And with soap as my normal shaving solution, I didn't really feel the need to upgrade to this razor... It does have a lovely scent though, and pretty pink handle... but I don't think its worth what they charge for it... ALSO the blade looks a lot cheaper quality than the Original Venus blades.

I just had the best hair experience ever at I.d. Hair salon in Barrie Ontario! I'm really low maintenance with my hair and was going in for some highlights and a cut. Taunya, the colourist, was amazing. She knew what I wanted before I could even fully explain and she gave me such a natural but noticeable look! Cannot say enough good about her. I ended up going for a semi ombré and highlights and she just gave me such an amazing experience. Then I had my hair cut by Bobbi and she was fantastic. I'm growing out my hair and she was able to give me lovely layers that really showed off the colour I had just had done. The both really listened to what I wanted and gave excellent suggestions. I am not a regular salon goer but this experience definitely made me want to go back as soon as I can! Seriously! This salon has excellent service, excellent people, and they all know what they are doing. I actually live in Mississauga and came all the way here because I'd heard great things! Such an amazing experience! -

I love this powder! For about $25.00 you get 0.3oz of powder - which honestly lasts me about 6 months. I use it as a light dusting on my face with a kabuki brush, add blush and mascara and am good to go. It helps combat shine and you can get a version that is shimmery or with SPF as well. It's so lightweight, does not affect your skin in a negative way at ALL and it absolutely easy to apply. Its very light coverage and can be used as a setting powder as well. I tend to use it on its own or over a primer/SPF that I have.
I really love it!

I bought this to replace the Biore Poor Refining and Exfoliator product that they discontinued... Unfortunately it is just not the same. While a decent scrub for the approximately $10 price tag, it just isn't as deep cleaning or pore refining *not that it promises this* as the previous product I used. Not bad for a scrub though - a definite try for woman who like a gentle scrub. -
Clean & Clear Deep Action Cream Cleanser
I used this product as a teenager and used to love the cooling sensation that it has. its not my favourite smell in the world, but it does the trick of cleaning the face... DOn't know about its claim for deap action though.

I bought this product after my sister raved about how much she loved it... Unfortunately it didn't work for me. I found that it actually caused blemishes, and I wasn't a huge fan of the scent either. The price was reasonable, but I just wasn't loving this product. I gave the bottle to my sister because I just didn't like it.
Oh well!

They have different formulas depending on your skin type, which is an awesome feature in skin care cleansers
I find this product keeps my skin clear, and does tend to take off most of my makeup.
Will definitely keep using for a long time to come!

St. Ives® Fresh Skin Apricot Scrub
Ive tried this scrub before and I honestly found it harsh and uncomfrotable. I also found it wasn't great quality either. Would rather spend money on a good scrub then settle for something cheaper like this.
