I have oily/combination skin depending on the time of year, and when I first tried these wipes I noticed they were different on my skin from others. My sister received these as a sample and handed them off to me as I have incredibly oily skin and I'm so glad she did. I find that other brands of wipes, although seemingly oily(?) wipes, make my skin VERY dry and sometimes cause dry patches to form. These Simple oil balancing wipes seem to work with my skin to combat oil in some areas, while preventing dryness in others. I really like this product because I feel like it doesn't make my skin worse. I don't believe I have sensitive skin, but definitely acne prone, and these wipes don't encourage, but rather help prevent the spread of breakouts. -
Simple Kind To Skin Eye Makeup Remover Pads

My sister received these in a swag bag/gift bag, and sent them my way. I LOVE these wipes but I wish they weren't so expensive where I live. I find most eye makeup remover formulas/pads don't completely remove my mascara, but these Simply wipes completely removed it from my lashes. I have sensitive eyes and these wipes didn't make my eyes puffy or irritated, plus they didn't leave a nasty residue. I guess I'll have to wait for these to go on sale because I love them, but not the price. -
Pond's Dry Skin Cream

My nan swears by Pond's Cream and passed that on to me. I really like Pond's because it's thick and really hydrates my skin during harsh winter months. I tend to be outside quite often in the cold, so my hands get chapped and cracked, and the Cream really helps with that. I'm not crazy about the scent, but I can sacrifice that for the effectiveness of the product. I would recommend this product to those with severely dry hands and feet/heels. Slap this on with some lotion/moisture socks, and it'll work. -

I don't use this product as a complete body lotion, but I use it for dry, cracked feet. I've used products from the Body Shop before (expensive products!) made specifically for cracked feet that was not as effective as this Vaseline lotion. It absorbs quickly, and is unscented with makes me super happy. Overall, it works like a dream. It's a great, classic, and simple product. -

I really love the scent of this body wash. I shower in the morning, and this citrus scent really wakes me up for my morning classes. I use this with a puff and it creates a lot of suds -- a little goes a long way! Also, this bottle is huge, and it lasts forever! I think I had this bottle/used it for over a year...which I don't know is a good or bad thing, but I think it's good! It's super affordable, smells amazing, and lasts forever. I will purchase this again and again. -
Lipton Green Tea Naturally Decaffeinated Tea Bags
I've been drinking Lipton Green Tea for many years now, and I don't know if it's just me, but I've noticed it's always incredibly bitter. I brew it for 3/4 minutes in warm (not boiling/scalding) water, and it always is super bitter and dry tasting... +
I've been drinking Lipton Green Tea for many years now, and I don't know if it's just me, but I've noticed it's always incredibly bitter. I brew it for 3/4 minutes in warm (not boiling/scalding) water, and it always is super bitter and dry tasting. Even Liptons green infusion tea taste bitter to me. It's not only me -- my friends and family have noticed that it has become much more bitter over time. This coupled with the price causes me to not purchase it anymore. I've found a cheaper green tea that does not become bitter, even after brewing 5+ minutes. I won't be buying Lipton again. -

I actually purchased this product at Dollarama so it was a fantastic deal for me! I don't have frizzy hair, but the winter really damages my hair, causing major split ends/flyaways. I bought this product hoping it would eliminate static hair, and boy did it ever work! I went back and bought four additional bottles because this has become my new holy grail product. I have somewhat thin, wavy hair, and it doesn't weigh it down or make it look oily. It absorbs well and minimizes the look of split ends, prevents breakage, and adds moisture to my hair so it doesn't become as static. -

I've been using this Blackhead Clearing Scrub for the past few weeks and I've fallen in love. First of all, I love St. Ives products because they're incredibly inexpensive compared to other drugstore/megastore brands. Secondly, I find them much more effective than drugstore brands. Whenever I use this scrub, my skin feels super refreshed and actually feels squeaky clean. I can tell immediately that it has removed dead skin, but as for black heads, for me, it isn't 100% effective. I have stubborn blackheads that don't budge without an extraction tool, but I think for minor blackheads or ones that appear here and there this scrub would be fantastic. In the end, I'll definitely buy this scrub again purely for its scrub claim and not for blackheads. -

I received a deluxe sample of this in Rikugien from Sephora's Beauty Insider birthday gift and I have been obsessed ever since! First of all, it's too pricey for me, but I'm glad I've been able to try the product. The shade is beautiful (my favourite lip colour), goes on smoothly, doesn't smudge or feather...I really need to find an affordable dupe of this product when it's gone. For me, a little goes a long way so I think I'll have this product for a long while. I always get compliments on the beautiful colour. It's nice and creamy...probably one of my favourite lip products. My only complaint is that sharpening it is a pain. -

I received this and another colour as Sephora's birthday gift last year. Now, I'm not a fan of red lipsticks (I'm a mauve/rose girl), but I surprisingly like this colour! I think it would look great with any skin tone. I don't lay it on thick because it is a very dramatic colour -- I add it lightly for a small pop of colour. And because of that, I think this deluxe sample will go a long way. I find that the formula is quite creamy, goes on evenly, and wears evenly. It is long-wearing which I love. I think it's definitely worth its original price. I likely wouldn't purchase this colour again, but definitely other NARS lip pencils. -
