Clinique Lash Doubling Mascara
The only thing I liked about this mascara was the uniquely shaped brush!! The way it comes to a point at the tip makes it easy to get the little lashes in the inner corner. I'm glad I got it as a free sample, and didn't pay $20 for it... +

I'm glad I got it as a free sample, and didn't pay $20 for it, that's for sure. It's supposed to thicken your lashes and it didn't.. at all.. it didn't even add length. The only thing it did was make them black, not impressed at all. I'm sticking to my Lash Blast Length!!!

Nivea A Kiss of Milk and Honey
I really like the scent of this! It's not too strong, just a subtle honey smell. The texture is nice, and I've found that it lasts for a while! I can still feel in on my lips after a few hours, so no need to constantly re-apply.

My order always arrives really fast, and if there is ANYTHING you are not satisfied with, just let them know and they will take care of it! Plus you get to choose some free goodies with every order, who doesn't love that?! :)
I like the matte formula, as I have very oily skin. I find that the intensive formula starts to get greasy throughout the day, and the other formulas have a bit of glimmer in them which I don't like.
I use a kabuki brush to apply my foundation, and it works best if you do it in light layers or else it will start to look cakey. As for coverage, it's not great for covering up acne scarring and blemishes, but its the perfect amount of coverage for evening out any redness, in your skin tone. I also find that it works well for undereye concealing. I find the best way is to use a concealer under this foundation if you want flawless skin. (I use Rev lon Colorstay Blemish Concealer.) The finish is amazing! You can barely tell you have anything on your skin, it looks sooo natural. I used to get compliments on how nice my skin was, and I had really bad acne but apparently no one could tell I was wearing makeup! You can't feel it on either, it's very light.
The price is great. I believe it is about $11CAD for a large container of foundation which will last a while. EVerydayminerals.com recently stopped doing their custom sets, where you could choose what you wanted in a large set...which is really lame. I'm very disappointed about that, but I still love the product and will continue to buy it.

It's too early to tell whether or not the 0.5% salycic acid in it helps heal pimples faster, but I will update in a week or so and let you know!

I bought this because it has so many good reviews on many different websites. Maybe my expectations were too high, but I wasn't very happy with this foundation. I purchased it in the Oily/Combination skin formula.
First of all, you need to work very fast when applying it, as it will dry right away. Using a wet sponge will help with this, but if you don't have much experience with liquid foundation you might find it frusterating to apply.
I also don't like the way it feels on my skin. It feels very heavy, and I can tell I'm wearing it.
The coverage is very good, I have lots of acne scarring and it definitely works at covering that, but I'm not sure how good this foundation is for acne-prone skin. It seems very hard to remove, and feels like it's clogging my pores.
Overall, this foundation has good coverage, but it feels very heavy and I wouldn't reccommend it for acne-prone skin.

Burt's Bees Very Volumizing Pomegranate & Soy Shampoo
This conditioner smells AWESOME! I don't think I would even care if it didn't do a good job at conditioning, haha. But, it does! It makes my hair feel light, and moisturized and it definitely adds a bit of volume. Plus it's all natural!... +

I was looking for a BRIGHT blue shade and this was the only brand of nail polish that had it, so for under $3 I definitely wanted to give it a try.
The first coat went on kind of streaky, and I'm not sure why. I shook it up well, so there shouldn't have been any blending problems but there were some clear streaks on my nails when I applied it. But after applying the second coat, the color evened out and looked true to the color in the bottle.
I love the shade, and overall am quite happy with this product. For under $3 I say this is a great buy, and it comes in so many interesting colors! Only downside would be that there aren't many neutral shades.

I always buy these razors, will never buy anything else. I never get any nicks or cuts when I use these, and they do a great job at removing hair. The thin shape makes it easy to maneuver around small areas.
The aloe strip keeps my skin moisturized and makes the shaving go smoother, but it only lasts for the first time you use the razor.
The little cleaning tab is great at removing hair from in the razor, I think that is a great feature that other razors don't have.

I picked this up because it was on special for under $3. I got it in a light pink shade called Moreish. It smells awesome! The scent is what I love most about it, it smells like bubblegum. It has a subtle sweet taste to it as well.
The gloss itself is nice, no sparkle or shimmer, just shine. It has a nice consistency, not too thick or sticky. The only thing I don't like about this lip gloss is that you need to reapply it quite often. But for under $3 I am quite happy with it.

I got this as a present from my Mom, not something I would have normally bought for myself, but I LOVE it! I got Very Black, in the non-waterproof formula. I usually use a mascara from Clinique, which is kind of pricey, but I actually prefer Lash Blast Length (which was only 5.99)! It does an awesome job at seperating lashes, and with 2 coats it definitely lengthens and adds volume as well. I think I'm going to go buy another tube for when this runs out, I just love it! -
