This mascara is a fairly decent product for the price. I picked this up in Toronto while traveling, as I forgot my mascara at home. It does volumize the lashes fairly well. With that being said, it does have the tendency to clump. The brush dispenses too much product, so have to be very careful applying it. It's a decent mascara if you're looking for something affordable, but use a very light hand. -

Fair ladies be warned - you may end up looking like a cheeto. I tried this product out as I wanted to see if there was anything comparable to St. Tropez that was more affordable. After just one application I looked pretty orange. It also applied very streaky. I gave it to my friend with a more olive skin and she swears by it. Perhaps it isn't the best for more dehydrated skin types, but I will stick with my St. Tropez. -

My go to lip balm! I use this everyday. So addicted I probably go through three tubes a month. I apply this on bare lips and underneath my lipstick. It really keeps my lips hydrated, especially in colder months when my lips are very dehydrated. It's non-sticky and doesn't have much of a scent so anyone can use it. A must have! -

One of my favorite Essie shades! Such a cute color and it's perfect for spring and summer time. Very universal color that anyone can wear - perfect nail polish shade for a gift! I always gets compliments when I wear this shade!
The only thing I find with Essie shades is if I don't wear a base coat and top coat they chip very easily.

This is a fantastic foundation, especially for the price! My friend swore by it and told me to give it a try. I picked it up on clearance at Shoppers for 4.99.
It's oil free so it's a great option for oily/combo skin. Even on my dry skin it created a very dewy canvas. It's medium coverage but buildable if you want full, I prefer to apply this with a wet beauty blender as it gives me fuller coverage.
I do set this with a powder because I find it does transfer. It will last all day long! I find myself reaching for this product a lot, and will repurchase it especially because of the price point.

Tim Hortons K-cups for Keurig
I usually buy this coffee in a value pack at Costco which lasts a few months. It's rich in flavor, but not too bitter as I do not like their dark roast. Tastes exactly like a fresh cup of Timmies coffee! One of my favorite k-cups.

I love the live clean hand soaps - particularly in this scent! I have one in my kitchen and bathroom. Your hands feel squeaky clean after use, without feeling dried out. The smell is wonderful too! The pump lets out just enough product per use, and you get a decent amount of product per bottle. I always get compliments on the smell from house guests. -

One of my favorite shower gels. This was in the box when I purchased the Sweet Like Candy fragrance. It smells so amazing! It even leaves a beautiful smell in my bathroom afterwards. My skin feels soft and hydrated after use, and leaves a lovely fragrance on my skin. It is a sweeter scent but not overbearing.
The only thing that peeves me is I can't purchase this on its own! I'm not even half way done my fragrance and I have almost none of this product left. I found it on eBay but it's like triple the cost due to the conversion rate and shipping price. Very annoying because I love it so much.

I used to love The Body shop lip balms as a kid. However, as an adult they are completely ineffective if you're actually looking for something to hydrate your lips. When applied, my lips just felt very sticky. After ten minutes max the product was completely gone from my lips - left feeling very unhydrated. The product does smell amazing, and depending on the flavor will add a tint of color for a short period of time.
Over all, I think these are a cute gift idea for stocking stuffers for perhaps younger girls, but if you're looking for a hydrating lip balm I'd go elsewhere.

I picked this serum up due to the price point at Sephora. I was a little hestitant at first, because I know it's a Korean based product and often times I find Korean skincare not hydrating enough for my particular skin type. Immediately I fell in love with this product. It gave me just the right amount of hydration and my skin appeared to be more plump. After a few days use, I noticed my foundation applying much smoother than normal. I only use this serum during the day time as it does have silicone In it and I don't really see the need for silicone in my nightly routine.
Something I did notice is the price when up drastically. I first purchased this serum when it came out at 28 dollars. The second time I repurchased it, it was at 40. Now I have purchased it a couple days ago and it's 46...geesze! The price point of the serum was originally was drew me in, if it gets any more expensive I probably won't be repurchasing it.
