L'Oreal Paris Collagen Filler Lip

I liked the product, though I do find it to be pricey. I have some fine lines around my lips and I think continuous use as helped to reduce them. My lips are also dry in the winter and I found them much smoother and not dry when I used it. If I missed a day, however, I found my lips would be dry again. So my experience with it has been mixed. I like it but I don't know if I would buy it. -

There are lot of things to like about this new product from Vaseline - the price is reasonable, the scent is light and lovely (though may be a problem for anyone who is scent-sensitive) and it stays on for hours! I know when I apply it I won't have to apply it again throughout the day!
The only downsides are that it is a bit sticky and greasy (I wouldn't put it on underneath clothing unless you have time to let it dry a bit for these reasons) and it did not seem to combat the dry skin-related itchiness! My legs get really itchy from being dry and I have found moisturizers usually soothe them and stop the itchiness. The Vaseline Infusion, while they did keep my legs moist, did not stop the itchiness in my legs, so it wasn't as effective for me as it could have been.
I would use it again (except on my legs), though I wouldn't wear it to work where we have a scent-free environment. I appreciated the opportunity from Chick Advisor to try it out and I think it is a great new product!

Breyers Double Churn Chocolate Cheesecake Frozen Dessert

This flavour was the only one of three I tried (others being Dark Chocolate Velvet and Banana Cream Pie) that I found disappointing. I'm a HUGE fan of cheesecake so I was excited to try this type of ice cream but I found it disappointing. I really didn't find a cheesecake flavour...I think adding some small chunks of cheesecake would have helped. There was nothing bad about it but it was decidely average. -
Breyers Double Churn Banana Cream Pie Frozen Dessert
I was really excited to try this flavour of ice cream (and a bit worried that it wouldn't measure up and I'd be disappointed) but I'm happy to say it was every bit as good as I thought it would be! I love the full-body banana flavour! I... +
I was really excited to try this flavour of ice cream (and a bit worried that it wouldn't measure up and I'd be disappointed) but I'm happy to say it was every bit as good as I thought it would be!
I love the full-body banana flavour! I also adored the graham through it....others have mentioned it tasted gritty to them but, to me, it added to the flavour and worked well with the flavour it is!
I think the only thing I find disappointing is the cost. We buy Breyer's Double-Churned Ice Cream a lot but we tend to wait until it is on sale because it's regular price (anywhere from 6.99-8.99 locally) is a LOT for ice cream!
I'd definitely recommend it though....SUPER YUMMY!

Breyers Creamery Style Dark Chocolate Velvet Frozen Dessert
LIke many others, I must admit I was most hesitant about the Dark Chocolate Velvet because I tend to indulge in sweeter milk chocolate. I must admit, however, how wrong I was! The ice cream is incredibly rich and smooth. It is also sweet (though not... +
LIke many others, I must admit I was most hesitant about the Dark Chocolate Velvet because I tend to indulge in sweeter milk chocolate. I must admit, however, how wrong I was! The ice cream is incredibly rich and smooth. It is also sweet (though not overpoweringly so) and tastes great both on its own and with a handful of nuts and a little whipped cream!
I would definitely recommend it!

I'd never tried Mac Cosmetics before but I fell for the Odd Couple colour combination of eyeshadow and decided to try it out! I must admit that I loved it! The colours are full (but not overwhelming) and the rich and they are also long-lasting as they stayed on through the day and evening with no need for reapplication! I would highly recommend it...it is well worth the money! -

We recently went to Moxie's in Guelph. I'd never been to this restaurant and, while impressed by the decor, was worried it would be the "same old" Canadian restaurant food. I was pleasantly surprised! The food was well-prepared, fresh and tasty. The desserts were decadent and the prices were reasonable! I found the quality of service very high-standard as well. I'd recommend it to anyone (I think it would be especially good for a "date night" scenario). -
Chanel Chance Perfume
I had never tried this perfume and then received it as a gift. I got the little purse sized with the refills and I can't believe how amazing it smells. I absolutely adore it!
