This is the alternative cleansing product for the beauty blender along with the solid one. I do very much prefer this over the solid when cleaning my beauty blender and the solid one for my brushes for an easy swipe.
The 5 fl.oz has a pump that sits well with the bottom of the beauty blender. It is effective for removing the stain and cleaning my sponge. There are other alternative such as shampoo or dish soap but I prefer this because it is gentle on the sponge and bristles.

I went during lunch special and got H11 - which is the Salmon Curry Katsu and a side of crispy salmon sushi
My friend had taken me here because she said it was good but I didn't expect that it was "line-up good". The place was nice and compact and we were seated quickly after.
We were given the menu, tea, and miso soup. We weren't catered to until asked because they were really busy but they do constantly check if everybody's teas are filled.
The wait for the food didn't take too long to arrive and I was greatly satisfied with the portion. It was a bit salty for my taste but it was still very flavourful. The salmon wasn't fried too much and still had that nice texture on the inside. The sushi was a mouthful and all the contents in the middle looked and tasted very fresh.
Overall, I was satisfied in my first visit and will definitely come back again.
This place runs an efficient establishment and the servers are all very hardworking.

This pot of lip balm has a lovely scent and consistency with no taste.
It is not tacky on the lips and has a nice, smooth glide when the lips are pressed.
Keeps my lips moisturized for hours. and what I usually use before I put on a matte lipstick.
There is great amount of product in the pot that can last you several seasons - if you don't lose it first ;)

This is one of the variety offered by C&E;hand therapy lotion.
I own many of them but this deserves the review. It is moisturising and compact.
I prefer this smell the best as it has the flower and spring vibe to it.
It is colourful and makes sure that you get the most out of the product nearing the end unlike the plastic tubes like aveeno.
The only thing I would change in this is the cap. If you don't tighten it or are not careful then you can easily lose it. It's be best if it is somehow attached to the body.

This foundation really lives up to its name as an invisible fluid makeup (of course, with the right shade ;p)
It is very lightweight and works effectively for those who just wants a consistent colour throughout the face.
I have scars and acne so I needed to build up the coverage.
It dries pretty quickly and smoothly. So you will need to set your face right away to prevent creasing especially for more mature skin.
Not much complain except that if you tend to wear a lot more makeup then this will not last as long as you would expect, especially at the price point that it is.

I thought to give this product a try from Shoppers since it was on sale for $3.00 but originally $6.00.
I already had low expectation since Quo as a brand didn't work so well for me in the past. But this went waaaaay below the expectation level.
The first two wipes were damp but you can tell that the packaging didnt have weight to it in comparison to other wipes. It had an ok initial clean but there were still evident left-over product on the brush. The second time around, the wipes were dried up, as if it had already been used. It wasn't even damp so it wasn't effective for a quick brush clean after all. It was basically a textured tissue paper.
Once opened, it doesn't take long for the remaining wipes to lose its moisture. There are definitely better alternatives instead if this one. Wouldn't recommend!

One of my favourite morning cleansers. This is meant for all skin types and it hasn't given me a hard time with my combo skin.
It is gentle on the skin and has a nice gel consistency, as well as a refreshing cucumber scent, which makes it perfect for a morning cleanse.
However, I do not recommend this for a night-time facial wash as the only item you would use to remove and cleanse your face with. It is not strong enough to remove all the make-up unless you use very minimal products on your face.

Great product overall but not the best I've tried.
It's worth it for the price you pay plus the additional discounts/sales for this brand.
It is moisturizing, not heavy for day time moisturizing but that means it doesn't extremely moisturize overnight.
I appreciate the lack of smell it has.
Personally, with my acne prone skin, it didn't break me out or anything nor did it prevent any upcoming break outs but it did leave and maintain my skin feeling supple so I still recommend this item.

Nice packaging: sturdy with a wide applicator.
However, the product itself is quite poor. I've used it many times along with my coloured nail polishes and wondered why it chips off easily. It's because of this! While it helps to not stain my nail bed, it doesn;t keep my mani for too long either.
I've tried using it by itself with nothing else and it was peeling through out the day.
Expected more from such a high end brand. Better stick with my drugstore base-coats.
