St. Ives has always been my go to for great quality products. I especially love their scrubs which leave my skin feeling clean and refreshed. The blemish and blackhead control is an added bonus for a deep clean.

Hormones are the cause of my blemishes. I use Clearasil Daily Face Wash to make sure I get a good clean. I find it is effective for me when I use it 2x a day and my skin quickly become blemished if I falter from my regimen. My preference is the oil-free version. -
Spectro Jel Cleanser
Spectro Jel is a great cleanser. I love the Blemish cleanser as it can be used on sensitive skin. I find that it works well with continued use for problem acne. Con The smell - It always smells like plastic to me.

Mine and Yours KY lubricant is a package containing two bottles of lubricant. Mine (tingles) and Yours (warming) are designed for male and female use. KY suggests using the two separately for his and her pleasure or together for an intensified experience.
I used the tingling lotion (Mine) on myself and definitely felt tingling after using several drops. The sensation increases after a few moments. My boyfriend then used the warming lubricant (Yours) on himself and commented right away that it felt warm. These were definitely effective, however I recommend not putting too much tingling lubricant on initially as it did take a moment before I felt it starting to work. Let the tingles build and add more later if needed. Use that time to make out!
I bought this for $22.00 on sale, at Shoppers Drug Mart, typically costing $25.00-$27.00 for both lubricants.

I love working own my laptop in bed and watching movies, but my laptop speakers just were not cutting it. I bought Logitech's lapdesk from Canadian tire for $30 on sale. I was nervous about purchasing the item without hearing the sound quality, but I was very pleased when I tried it out. The best part is that the speaker sound can easily be adjusted, dont require batteries and can be plugged into your laptop using the usb attached to the lapdesk.
Cons
Feels a little heavy on my lap, but i was still able to use it for several hours at a time without any major discomfort

Pros
I love the taste of this cereal! It is a great treat in the morning.
Has a great amount of crunch in the dried berries
Usually has a good amount of berries in the box
Cons
It is quite expensive so I cant justify eating it as my only cereal of choice.
If you dont eat it right away, it softens too quickly and loses all of its flavour.
High sugar content

I bought the diva cup at the recommendation of a friend while I was living overseas in a third world country (and feminine products were extremely costly). It was one of the best purchases I have ever made
Pro
At $40, this is an excellent price because the product lasts for 10years before it requires replacing (you need to purchase the 2nd model once you have had a child). The diva cup is extremely comfortable and i never notice it when in use. The material is also organic. What an awesome way to save money and help the environment.
Cons
May take some time to get the hang of insertion. Needs to be boiled after use to sanitize it again. Boyfriend took some time to get used to the idea; wasnt sure what to think of it for awhile.

The Clarisnic MIA was one of the best purchases I have ever made. I have combination skin that continues to break out despite the fact that I am past my teens. I was frustrated and spent a month looking for a way to improve my skin and take care of those hard-to-remove blackheads fom my lower jaw area. I bought the MIA after researching the perfect skin cleansing system and I am ecstaticwith the product. I noticed an improvement immediately after my first use. My trouble areas cleared within a few uses and my skin has not broken out once in the last three months since I have purchased the product. Before the MIA, my skin would break out 2-3x a month.
I dont use my MIA every day (as recommended 2x a day) because the product works that well! The cost is well worth the purchase. I plan to buy one for my sister at Christmas!
