I live in Edmonton Alberta and since moving here from the east coast 5 years ago have struggled with extremely dry skin due to the climate. I have tried many facial creams over the years and sent hundreds of dollars doing in the process. None have given me the results that Clinique's have. The bottle looks small but it last me usually a few months and thats me using in morning and night. I buy it from Hudsons the Bay for 35 dollars CAD. I have very sensitive skin and almost all creams I have tired have burned my face leaving it red and blotchy. However this one does not. I have also incorporated their other products into my routine as well. I give it 5 out of 5 stars for quality and effectiveness but since it is expensive i only gave it 3 out of 5 for Value. It would be nice to see them put it on sale more often or distribute coupons a few times a year. -

I purchased this tooth brush back in October 2017 from shoppers drug mart for 289.99. I have had several electric tooth brushes in the past but none that compared to this one. It has so many upgraded features to the other models on the market. I especially love that it comes with the rechargeable travel case so that when you travel you do not have to remember to bring the charging base with you . It comes with a great 2 year warranty and if you register it you are able to extend it to 3 years. Another unique feature that I love is the free app that your able to download to keep track of your brushing and hygiene habits. Your able to set goals and see your achievements and results. It was a great investment and has really helped improve my oral hygiene and feels like I just left the dentist after every time that I brush my teeth. I loved it so much I even got one for my husband and my mother for a Christmas present. its worth every penny my dentist asked me what i was doing different at my last cleaning. -

All year long I look forward to vacation. Theres nothing better then being able to escape reality and the everyday responsibilities. Creating some much need time for your self to do the things you love. I love sitting on the beach with the sun in my face and a drink in my hand and reading a good book and listening to the sounds of the ocean, Its my happy place.
One of the best parts of vacation is the unlimited tropical drinks. My personal favourite out of all the ones I have tried over the years is the Pina Coladas.
Upon returning home I always wished I was able to recreate those delicious mouth watering drinks at home. In the past I have tried several different products over the years that promised the same results but always ended up disappointed because none of them have ever come anything close to the Caribbean ones. The other day while I was out grocery shopping i came across a Mott's Mr & Mrs T's display the store had set up and it immediately caught my eye . I stopped for a moment to check it out. They had 5 different kinds of drinks to choose from. The instructions looked easy enough. Simply measure mix and alcohol in a blende and add in some ice. Blend all together until smooth and Voila your done. Simple as that !
I have tried several products in the past that claim to replicate the popular drinks but never cared for them as they did not deliver the same results as promised. However; They were on sale for 3.49 each so I decided to try them out. I picked out 3 flavours to try, Strawberry Daiquiri, Pina Colada and the Mai Tai flavour mix.
That next weekend The girls from work came over after work for a barbecue and drinks. Thats when I busted out the Margarita maker and blended everyone up a drink of their choosing. Everyone loved them and was dying to know how I made them. I showed them the different mixes and they were thrilled. The Pina colada was hands down was my favourite. I could literally close my eyes and it felt as though I was back sitting on the beach in Jamaica. A few days later I went back to the grocery store and stocked, buying a few of each flavour to have on hand for whenever the desire to have one arises. They are perfect for when friends or family stop by, Or on a hot sunny afternoon, and perfect to unwind after a stressful day at the office. You can even make them with just Ice for kids or someone who does not drink. I recommend everyone grab a bottle and give them a try or else your missing out !
