This is officially one of my top favourite lip colour products right now. The stain gloss duo gives you amazing colour, just as shown through the packaging, and a high-shine gloss that will last you many hours before having to re-apply. I have tried this product in 8 Iconic Red and 10 Raspberry (my favourite), and will hopefully try other shades in the future. The stain colour is very pigmented and once it sets and the clear gloss is applied over top, you are in for many hour of wear. I know that I've made it through 12 hours without reapplying this and little to no product came off out of cups that I drank out of. The only downfall is that it takes quite the effort to take off at the end of the day. Definitely my recommendation for long lasting lip colour! -

I had tried many drug store brand liquid liners and was unimpressed with the quality of them, so I decided to pay a bit more for a better quality liquid liner. I ended up purchasing the Kat Von D brand liner in black, and was quite impressed with how smoothly it glided on my eyelid. This liner's fine tip really helped with precision and helped making straight, thin lines and cat eyes were much easier to draw. I would recommend this liquid liner for people that want a fine tip liner that glides on smoothly. -

After months and months of wanting to give this mascara a try, I finally bought it to give it a try. I was not let down! This mascara definitely lives up to its hype and creates bold, voluminous lashes without having to do a million coats of mascara. I got the waterproof one, which is probably best suited for longer wear and no mess. I would list this in my top favourite mascaras for sure. -

Since the moment I tried out this product, I have officially switched to this as my go-to BB cream. I never really expected much from a BB cream, but this one surprised me. It has a decent amount of coverage, between your average BB cream and a foundation. It's a good alternative for foundation if you don't want to put on something as heavy as most foundations. I've left the house only with this on before and it covered most of the redness and blemishes on my face with good coverage. The sample I tried was in Light so it matched to my skin tone perfectly. I've only tried it as a sample, so I'm constantly checking the stores for it to be released so I can buy a full one so I'm not worrying about running out of my sample size one. -

This lip balm trio got me excited because it was inspired by one of my childhood favourite movies, Alice in Wonderland. I had never actually tried one of the eos lip balms before, but couldn't pass by this trio. Just by scent, each of these smells fantastic without being overpowering. I was using them throughout the day and before going to sleep, and I feel they did a good job at keeping my lips from being chapped. But I did have to make sure I didn't get carried away applying them because they're kind of fun to apply to your lips with their original sphere shape ball. I have a feeling I will be using these for quite a while now! -

This lip balm was a favourite of mine before I started experimenting with other brands. It worked like magic when my lips got horribly chapped in the winter, and I continued to use it throughout the year to keep my lips soft and moisturized. The gentle fruity smell and slight pigment of colour were a nice touch as well. This product is still definitely still one of my favourites and I have to repurchase again as it's getting chillier outside. -

This was my first experience with using a BB cream, and was pleasantly surprised! If applied properly, it does do a lot of what it says it does. I still have to use a concealer for better cover up of any blemishes, but it does reduce redness quite a bit and smooths out when I appear to have an uneven skin tone. This product helps create a more even and smooth base for the rest of my makeup, but if I'm in a big rush, then this works well alone to "fix my face" before going out. I would like to try others to compare, but I'm happy with this product as it is! -

As a lot of people do from time to time, they want their hair to be lighter without having to bleach or dye it. I gave in and tried out this set of shampoo and conditioner to see what happened. I have naturally dark blonde/light brown hair, that is dyed frequently. Since I started using these products, I have gotten some comments that my hair is getting blonder. I see my hair too much that I don't notice a big difference, but it is possible that it's lightening it slightly. Don't expect to magically have blonde hair, but it is just keep blonde hair radiant and healthy. For keeping my hair healthy, I give it a thumbs up! The lemon scent is a nice bonus. My mom even steals it from time to time because she likes how it makes her hair feel. -

This finishing spray isn't meant for extra hold, but does a really good job for medium strength hair spray. It didn't make my hair all stiff after using it and my hair even lasted throughout the night while I slept until the next morning with at least half of the hold still in my hair style instead of going completely flat. I was surprised with the staying power! I would get it again and recommend for others to try. -

I first received this in the birthday gift from Sephora, which included the clear and Rose lip treatments. I instantly fell in love with the Rose one. The girl at Sephora suggested to never leave it in my purse throughout the summer, and I did by accident and they didn't quite make it. I went and bought myself the full retail size of the Rose one and have been using it almost daily to keep my lips moisturized, adding a bit of colour at the same time. It's not sticky and glides on easily. Definitely something I'd repurchase, even though it is a bit expensive for a lip product. -
