I finally tried this Baptiste Dry Shampoo after seeing it on sale at my local Rexall. I am certainly happy that I did! I am very pleased with how wonderfully it works. First off, the lotus fragrance smells very feminine as if you are wearing perfume. Secondly, there is absolutely no residue left after you have sprayed on the dry shampoo, just soft oil-free hair. Lastly, your hair will smell and look clean for the entire day, even in thirty degree summer heat and humidity. I would definitely recommend this Baptiste Dry Shampoo. -

This Quo foundation comes in a glass bottle, and when you twist the lid the pump dispenser pops up, which I really enjoy as it makes applying this foundation a breeze. I was so lucky to find this product at my local Shoppers Drug Mart, on the clearance rack, for under five dollars. I have dry skin and this foundation was perfect because it adds a bit of moisture, however does not leave your face with a greasy feeling. I would say that it provides a medium coverage, is light-weight and natural-looking, as well as a matte finish. It will last on your face without any touch-ups for at least twelve hours. The only critique that I offer is that this foundation transfers quite easily.
For my olive complexion I chose the shade #006 which is a medium beige colour.

I find the brush applicator for this mascara confusing. On one side there is a tiny "teaser" comb that is supposed to be used to separate your lashes, and on the other side is the longer bristle side. I needed to experiment with the applicator for a few days to get used to how to better apply this mascara.
I am happy with this Cover Girl Total Tease Mascara as it makes my lashes very long and full. This mascara will keep your lashes curled and flake-free for at least twelve hours. If you find it difficult to use the brush applicator that is included, I would suggest using one of your favorite brush applicators from another mascara.

I found this Clean and Clear facial cleanser on the discount shelf of my local Rexall for a great price ($1.99) which is an offer that I could not refuse. When I use this before bed, I do not notice that my skin feels dry in the morning, however using it in the morning, I MUST apply a facial moisturizer immediately afterwards.
I love the scent of this facial cleanser and you do not need to use more than two small pumps for your entire face and neck. I bought this product only based on the discounted price and I do not know how it works on an oily complexion to control shine.

I find the scent of this daily moisturizer very appealing. I would describe it as a light floral fragrance. If you do not enjoy products with a scent, then you probably will not like this Aveeno skincare product. I love how this moisturizer is oil free and literally sinks into your skin within seconds after you apply it. With two pumps you can nourish your entire face. For me personally, my face stays soft for the entire work day. This is a perfect moisturizer for under face powder, or foundation. -

I have sensitive skin at certain times of the year, especially during the winter months. This Aveeno Ultra-Calming Daily Moisturizer soothes my irritated, dry skin. In addition, it reduces the appearance of redness. It is non-greasy and it absorbs very quickly. It barely has a scent so I believe it will appear to most people. I use a generous amount (three pumps) as a primer on those days that I wear foundation. I definitely would recommend this daily moisturizer as it has an added bonus of containing a SPF 15. -

I always wanted to give this face contour palette a try but did not want to pay the regular price for it. I was lucky enough to find it on the clearance rack at my local Shoppers Drug Mart for $4.75 which I was thrilled about. The colours included in this contouring palette are perfect for my skin tone. I actually sometimes use these colours for eyeshadow as well. The two problems that I have with this product is, it does not last very long and there is a lot of fallout from this palette. -

I stumbled upon these clothes at Marshalls and paid just under seven dollars for one cloth. They are super soft and plush when using them to clean your face. They will get out even stubborn mascara with just adding some warm water. These clothes can be thrown in the washing machine and they come out perfectly clean, and as soft as the first time that I have used them. -

The first time that I purchased this mascara, I had to return it because the wand broke off after the first opportunity that I used it. Currently, I have been using this mascara for the last five weeks. The wand takes a bit of getting used to in order to achieve results because it is quite large, however it does have an anti-slip grip, which I like.
This waterproof mascara is extremely simple to remove. I find that it does not flake and when you touch your lashes, they feel very silky. In my opinion, you have to apply at least two coats to see any volume, or length (of course making sure to allow each coat to dry, before adding another). This mascara does fan out your lashes, and grabs the little lashes in the corners as well.

This Milano eyeshadow palette is perfect for summer. I use all six of the eyeshadow colours so there are no colours wasted because they all compliment one another. These eyeshadows glide on like butter and stay put for at least fourteen hours. They will give your eyes a sun-kissed glow (very natural). This is a nice sturdy eyeshadow palette that comes with two small brushes that make application a breeze. If you turn over the eyeshadow palette, it will give you a guide as to how to apply the different eyeshadows and where to apply them. -
