this product works well to cover grey roots--i got Black. it's easy to use and has minimal odour. you must keep a firm finger on the spray nozzle (if you try i soft press, like if you're trying to spray a tricky little spot, it might spray droplets instead of a fine mist...but it's easy to wipe away). no complaints! -

i have particularly dry hands in winter, and i find that this lotion isn't very effective for me at all. practically disappears after i smooth it on. HOWEVER, during the rest of the year (and for people with normal skin) it's a nice product. the little pods are easy to put into a small purse or clutch. the scents are all really nice and not overly strong. -
Dawn Ultra Dishwashing Liquid - Original
this is my go-to, fail-safe dish soap. it's so effective on greasy dishes, and the scent is pretty neutral. i like to try "natural" products if possible, but sometimes they don't deliver. dawn never disappoints.

i can't believe more people don't know about or aren't interested in trying ciders. there are a few brands that i quite enjoy, but strongbow is my favourite. there are different varieties (the elderflower is my fave). it's crisp & dry, but not bitter-dry. very nice on it's own or with a meal. -
Vaseline Intensive Care Healthy Hands Stronger Nails Conditioning Lotion
i have particularly dry skin, so this lotion is only effective for me in the summertime--in the winter, i need something much stronger. that said, i like the texture & the scent.

Clinique Chubby Stick Moisturizing Lip Colour Balm
i really love this lip stick. it's very smooth, doesn't have much of a scent, and goes on light (so you can adjust how much colour you want). i've even bought it as a gift for friends. i tried other brands of similar sticks, and they don't compare... +
i really love this lip stick. it's very smooth, doesn't have much of a scent, and goes on light (so you can adjust how much colour you want). i've even bought it as a gift for friends. i tried other brands of similar sticks, and they don't compare (dried out my lips, smelled bad). and you can find them everywhere from shoppers drug mart to sephora to the bay.
one thing: the average price listed here says $15 but it's more like $19 (still worth it, though).

Dove Baby Fresh Scent & Tear Free Wash & Shampoo
i bought some of this for when my baby nieces were visiting and ended up using some to wash my face one night. it was nice and light. then i used it another time when i had run out of my usual "intimate cleanser" and it also worked great.

Hellmann's Olive Oil Mayonnaise
i've always loved hellman's best, compared to other brands, and this olive oil version is delicious as well. it's got a slightly richer taste, and is as creamy as ever.

i happen to have sensitive skin with SOME products...and this happened to be one of them. i've used other Olay products so i was kind of surprised when, about 2 minutes after using one of these wipes, my face began to sting. it quickly became a burning sensation and i had to race to wash my face. it settled down but it was scary. all i can say is to try it on a small spot on your face before using it all over, just in case it irritates you. -

i've used dove for years. a long time ago my dermatologist gave me a list of approved products (cleansers, foundations, powders, sunscreens) and the dove bar was always on the list. i find it a very effective skin cleanser. in the winter it's a bit drying for my skin, but during warm months it's great. -
