Essie is a good nail polish, they have such a wide variety of shades and colours. Some of my favourite, most used polishes are from Essie. The formula wears well and is chip resistant (with the proper bottom and top coats). I wear it over acrylic nails and have no issues. Creamy colours means that you get good coverage in two coats (sometimes in a single coat). -
CoverGirl Ready, Set GORGEOUS Foundation

It's not a great foundation, but it's not bad either. I think it's just not what I love in a foundation. The formula feels fairly light on the skin but I would prefer a bit more coverage. It blends fairly easily and takes a few mins to dry down, so it's great for someone who is newer to makeup or likes to take their time blending. I did have a hard time finding a shade that was right for my skin. -
COVERGIRL & Olay Simply Ageless Foundation

I found the Olay/Covergirl foundation to be very average. I used to like it when I knew less about what a good foundation should do, but now that I know more I wouldn't recommend it. There are just so many better options out there for around the same price point.
I want more coverage from a foundation, this is very sheer. It feels wet on the skin and takes a long time to dry down. It breaks up quickly on my oily skin. I don't like the way powders sit on it either.
The more I say, the less average it's feeling, but I will leave things there. There are much better options, especially for 'older' skin.

I'm actually going out to buy another bottle of this foundation today. I love it. I have oily skin and enlarged pores, this foundation covers up my pores (even without a primer, although primer makes for a longer and better wear). It helps control shine on my face so I don't look like an oil slick after a few hours. They have a good shade range, so there should be a shade for everyone. I really can't say enough how much I love this foundation, easily my favourite drugstore brand. -

I do wish these were a bit less expensive since I'm going through so many of them while housebreaking my new puppy. These are great to help clean up and get rid of the smell when the puppy has accidents. I also like using them for day to day cleaning. Disposable wipes means that I can use one for a floor mess, throw it out and use a new one for the counter. It always drove me crazy when my mom had a floor cloth, counter cloth, cloth for this type of mess, etc. -

This is one of a few kinds of toothpaste that I use, depending on what is on sale. I will generally cycle through a couple of brands for my family. I do think that I see better whitening results with this (as well as the Arm & Hammer Whitening). It tastes good, gets the job done and leaves my teeth feeling wonderfully clean. -
St. Ives® Fresh Skin Apricot Scrub

The exfoliants are too rough for my skin (sensitive, oily, over 35). I found that it caused irritation after use on my face (much less if used on my body), and I've been told that it is too harsh for regular use by a number of beauty professionals. I used to love it when it was younger - in my 20's. I had picked some up again recently and found I had problems. I never finished the tube and won't buy again. -

This lip balm is a life-saver over the Canadian winter! Keeps my lips conditioned and in good shape. My lips get very dry very easily in the winter because of the heating and the cold outside. It leaves them cracked and not looking very nice. Burt's Bees helps protect them so I can wear liquid lipsticks without it looking terrible :) -

This beauty bar is a classic for a reason. I love using this product, it makes my skin feel refreshed, moisturized and clean. It works well with my sensitive skin. I also love that this soap works well with both hard and soft water (sometimes you get a slimy residue with hard water). -

I bought this for a trip to Guatemala, where I knew I would be in the sun at high altitudes all day long. I applied it every morning and tried to reapply midway through the day (but wasn't always able to, since I was away from the hostel). It worked well. I got a bit of a tan but normally I burn easily, so I was very happy. -
