Honestly, best product on the market for drug store dry shampoo. I have tried lot of different products and I keep coming back to this brand. Its ones of the few products that is sprayed on and dry to the touch. Always removes ample oils from my hair allowing me extra time between washes.
Clean and classic is my favourite scent as its not overpowering in anyway.

Eccotique East at Metrotown was an excellent experience. I was pleasantly surprised as I thought it would be noisy and chaotic being located inside a busy mall.
Upon arrival, my technician guided me into the back area where they offer the treatment. The salon was clean and very modern with their décor and setup. The technician was wonderful in all aspects. She helped me choose a colour, she was friendly and took the time to get to know me an my preferences.
I would definitely recommend the salon to a friend and will definitely be back!

Thank you ChickAdvisor for selecting me to participate and #TryShellac. Here is my second review regarding the Shellac product itself:
I have tried most gel / shellac products on the market in Canada including (OPI, Akzentz, gelish, etc) I have used other products from CND so am reviewing their shellac polish in comparison.
Overall, the product was very similar to a regular nail polish with regards to the end result and the application process. It applied surprisingly thin, unlike a typical gel polish. I liked this attribute as gel and shellac is normally very thick, harder to remove and feels less natural.
I chose a deep wine colour ('Tis the fall season afterall) which I loved! There were so many colour choices and I had to get the nail technician to help me narrow down from my top three favourites. She even explained to me that they didnt have all the colours in the line. (Thank god, I would have been there all day trying to decide!)
Overall, the polish has lasted me two weeks as of today. I am only now experiencing slight chipping / lifting after two weeks of wear and its probably because I do the most amount of housework and dishes out of me and my husband. The polish is still shiny as ever and only since they are showing the growth will I soon be ready for another appointment.
Overall, I am very surprised. I figured due to the thinness of the shellac that it wouldnt last as long as a regular gel manicure but I was wrong! Very pleased with the end results. I would definitly recommend this product over other gel / shellac brands.

These were delicious! I received them as a product review and was quite impressed by the packaging. It is sort of a matte finish and something about it just makes you feel like you are eating something better for you. The Quinoa in the bar had sort of a "rice krispie" type crunch to it which I loved. Needless to say this box disappeared in a matter of only a few days as my husband and I really enjoyed them. We have since been back to safeway to purchase more! Great job Quaker -

I received the product from Chick Advisor to test the product. I would have never tried it due to the cost but now that I have witnessed first hand what this product can do, I highly recommend it.
Its a lengthy process, two hours per day for one week. But so worth it. In the end, its the same look after leaving a dentist for a whitening treatment only at a fraction of the cost.
My advise would be to throw them on while your watching a movie (after dinner so you are not craving snacks!) that way its a total distraction from the fact that you are wearing them!

Sweet scent... Great for work, a lazy Sunday or a night on the town. I love this scent. And the bottle is so pretty and comes with a "princess ring"! I also have the lotion and the perfume balm key chain. All very lovely and not over powering. The scent is light and lasts longer when layered with the lotion. -

True Blue Spa Super Softening Hand Lotion
Love this product. It keeps your hands feeling silky smooth all day. Some people have said its pretty greasy but I find it very moisurizing. Especially for dry skin in the winter. Keeps cuticles healthy also

Soak off gel colour that it odourless, durable, natural and diverse. This stuff is better then any other gel polish I have used includin OPI Axxium, Gelish, Shellac etc. Does not crack or peel, and the colour options are endless! Lots of sparkle choices and you can layer the colours to make something totally unique.
Also a local company based right in my home town
