The consistency is a pain (it's a liquid) but I used it like a toner and found it worked well that way. When my skin is breaking out, I find salicylic acid works well to help clear out my pores and it also works well as a prevention strategy as well. Does not overdry the skin. -

I love Indigo, both in store and online. They have a great selection of books along with non-book items like small tech, kids and baby toys/gifts and home decor items. The atmosphere is great and the prices are comparable to, or slightly higher, than amazon.ca.
My favorite part of the store is the home and baby/kids section. They carry a selection of high quality items that are perfect for personal use or gift-giving. The website in particular has an excellent selection of higher quality brands that can be hard to find elsewhere. Solid return policy.

This is one of the better dry shampoos on the market. The scent is pretty strong, but it sprays on easily and does absorb excess oil pretty well. I have super dark hair and I find there's a touch of whitish residue when I distribute the product at my roots, but not as bad as some other brands like Oscar Blandi. Reasonably priced as well. -

This is the BEST diaper pail in my opinion. The others are ugly... this one is at least a somewhat stylish option :) The colour selection is phenomenal and I was able to get an awesome match for our nursery. We've had it for almost 2 years and it... +
This is the BEST diaper pail in my opinion.
The others are ugly... this one is at least a somewhat stylish option :) The colour selection is phenomenal and I was able to get an awesome match for our nursery. We've had it for almost 2 years and it contains smells reasonably well. It works for both cloth and disposables and wipes down easily. I don't notice the pail itself having an odor... it's metal so it's relatively odor-resistant. It apparently converts to a regular garbage afterwards so that's a nice bonus.

Uppababy vista stroller in Mica (grey/silver)

Awesome stroller! I have it in another colour but figured I would put my review here.
I did a ton of stroller research and ended up with this one as my main one. Love it! Have been using it for almost 2 years and it's awesome. Huge basket underneath, many recline positions and great color selections. It steers well with one or both hands and the handlebar adjusts for different heights. Drives well on different terrain. Great sunshade. No complaints. The additional accessories like the rain cover and bug shield (mostly the former) are really useful. It's pricey but definitely one of the best strollers on the market.

I normally love Nars products, but this one was an exception. I heard good reviews about this, but for some reason, the colour selection was not great in my case (slightly too light or too dark), and the coverage was a problem. I can usually wear fairly sheer foundation (i.e BB creams, tinted moisturizers), but this one applied unevenly and really magnified the pores on my nose. Would not buy it again. -
Scope Outlast Mouthwash
Great mouthwash. It's a classic and freshens your breath quickly but doesn't have that super strong chemical scent that some other brands do. Very handy to keep around.

McDonald's Fries
Totally love McDonald's fries! I also love the thick cut style/home fries, but there something so nostalgic about the smell of their fries that draws me in! Happy childhood memories :) Sometimes they're a little too soggy if they've been sitting... +
Totally love McDonald's fries! I also love the thick cut style/home fries, but there something so nostalgic about the smell of their fries that draws me in! Happy childhood memories :) Sometimes they're a little too soggy if they've been sitting around too long, but generally if they're piping hot and fresh and crisp, they are perfect. -
Mega Bloks Maxi
These are good starter blocks since they're huge but the quality is only so so. I find they fit really loosely and some pieces never fit together well even when new (some of the speciality pieces we had like roofs, etc.) My little one played with... +
These are good starter blocks since they're huge but the quality is only so so. I find they fit really loosely and some pieces never fit together well even when new (some of the speciality pieces we had like roofs, etc.)
My little one played with them only until he was around 14 months then he preferred Duplo.

Oball Rattle
O ball is an excellent toy line - reasonably priced, bright colors and a rattle sound that's not too loud! My little one loved all his O ball toys including the ball, rattles and car. He still plays with the car over a year later but has outgrown... +
O ball is an excellent toy line - reasonably priced, bright colors and a rattle sound that's not too loud! My little one loved all his O ball toys including the ball, rattles and car. He still plays with the car over a year later but has outgrown some of the others. Excellent value. -
