I looooooooove this eyeliner. I would love it more if it was matte black, but I'll just have to wait till KVD releases their matte formula. It goes on smoothly without skipping, I don't have to go over my eyeliner to get a deeper black, and it lasts forever. I have fallen asleep with this liner on and it hasn't budged an inch. The tip doesn't flair or lose it's shape, which often happens with felt-tip liners, so you continue to get a crisp line and sharp flick for the entirety of the life of the liner. Comparable to the Stila liner, which I love equally to this. -

This gel liner replaced my MAC Fluidline, officially. It's cheaper, which is a bonus, and it's very black and applies smoothly and evenly, however, my favourite thing about this is that it doesn't dry out easily. Fluidline seems to dry out much faster than I can get through a pot, and while I hop back and forth between different eyeliners and types (felt tip, pencil, liquid, etc.) this one continues to remain usable and retain the texture it had when I first bought it. The brush included is fine, I don't really use it because I prefer my own liner brush, but it works well. -

I don't often use drugstore mascara, and I don't often buy mascara (Sephora samples and 100 pt perks keep me in mascara all year long), however, on the advice of a friend I purchased this mascara and fell automatically in love. It truly does all that it promises without flaking or fading. It lasts me my entire day (on average from 7 am - midnight) and looks fresh the entire time where as by then the rest of my makeup may be fading.
It can be a little tough to remove, so I recommend an oil based remover so that you're not scrubbing to get it all off, but otherwise, this mascara is wonderful and I will definitely repurchase when it's time for a new tube.

I've been using micellar water for years and was excited to receive this for review, however, I found it lackluster compared to the brand I use normally. The first day I used it I was wearing a long wearing mascara and instead of removing anything, it just spread the mascara and rest of my makeup over my face. I had to use a makeup remover to get rid of all the product. I don't have this issue with my regular micellar water and this particular mascara, fyi. The second day I wore a lighter mascara and while it didn't spread it over my face, it also didn't remove it completely. This time I just used my regular micellar water to remove everything. On the third day I wore very light/natural makeup and while it worked fine on removing my foundation and concealer, I still had issues with it removing anything with black pigment (eyeliner and mascara).
There are a number of things I like from La Roche-Posay and will continue to buy and use, however, this micellar water will probably not be one of those products. It didn't feel as if it made much of a difference to my skin overall, and while it works well if you wear light foundation, you may need a better quality micellar water for wearing anything heavier. This might work well for anyone who doesn't really wear makeup or for days where you're going makeup free.

I don't use a lot of hair spray. In general I don't use a lot of hair styling products because they tend to weigh my hair down. That being said, I always love finding hair spray that lets my hair feel like there is no styling product in it. The Dove Flex Hold was a god-send in the middle of seasonal storms that kept my hair from looking like a rat''s nest after getting stuck in the wind. It brushed out and still left my hair light and with movement even while holding whatever style I was wearing it in. Love it! This product was sent to me for review. -
Dove Refresh + Care Invigorating Dry Shampoo
I don't use a lot of dry shampoo in general, but I made an effort to make sure to use this one in between shampoos and it was really nice. The scent was pleasant but not over powering and it's colourless, which is a blessing for my dark hair.

Out of everything, I loved this product the most. The oil is light and didn't weigh my hair down in the least. On days I wore my hair naturally (curly) the curls stayed curly all day (as opposed to falling into loose waves the moment the wind hit it, or just loosing their will to live throughout the day) and even into the next day, which never happens. There is a scent, but it's so light that I barely noticed it, which is my preference for hair products. Also, a little goes a long way, so I don't think I'll be buying another bottle for a while; it's going to last me ages, but I 100% intend to buy it once it is finished. Bonus, the packaging for this is gorgeous. The glass bottle has such a nice weight to it that it feels sort of like a luxury product I bought as Sephora rather than one I can get at the drugstore. -
Dove Nutritive Solutions Daily Moisture Conditioner
I really liked this conditioner. It didn't weigh my hair down, but made my normally dry hair nice and soft and kept my curls soft and bouncy. The smell was nice and light and not overpowering.

My hair is normally dry, and the Dove Nutritive has really brought it back to looking much healthier and less dry, with much more body and life. This doesn't weigh my hair down either and allows the natural curls to remain bouncy whereas similar shampoos often will start to weigh the curls down with buildup. The smell is light and very lovely and not over powering. I would definitely buy this again. -

In the running for surpassing the blueberry acai as my favourite. This bar is rich and bold and the slight tart-sweetness from the cherry and pomegranate balances the richness and slight bitterness that comes with dark chocolate. This would be lovely paired with a hot black tea, a long book, and a rainy day. -
