Sephora cream lip stain - Always red

The quality of this product is just out of the league. I usually hate liquid lipsticks because I find them to be too drying, although they last. This one is lightweight, and it's the least drying I tried.
The color is the perfect shade of red: it is a neutral red that really suits everyone.

Fresh Brown Sugar eau de toilete
I really fell in love with the smell of that perfume. I do not like perfumes at all, normally. I think a lot of them smell... too obvious, or generic. That one smells like a desert, but it's not sickening. There's a sharpness to it, and it is... +
I really fell in love with the smell of that perfume.
I do not like perfumes at all, normally. I think a lot of them smell... too obvious, or generic.
That one smells like a desert, but it's not sickening. There's a sharpness to it, and it is really fresh. It's not sweet like Juicy Coutures perfumes, or Candy by Prada. It's just sweet like putting your nose in a brown sugar bag.
The only problem is that it doesn't last on me - and my fiancé is allergic.
I'd recommend you give it a sniff!

It's a really simple product that just works well. It's not fragranced (so it's good for my super sensitive skin), it's good for washing your face and getting the dirt out of your face. It's not enough for a full face of makeup, though.
Don't put it on your eyes: it burns so bad!
For the rest: really good product.

I bought the primer and finishing spray pack. I only use it on big occasions (or when I really need my makeup to last) because the price is really high (with the shipping to Canada).
It's that kind fo product that you put on thinking "will it even make a difference?" and it DOES! I put it on more because of habit, and for a night out, I decided not to. The pictures speak for themselves: I looked like a grease ball at the end of the night. This product really works well for keeping your makeup looking exactly the way it looked when you put it one hours earlier.
I will use it on my wedding day.

I really enjoy using that serum. It penetrates fairly quickly into the skin and it really helps with my super dry winter skin. I have combo skin, with lot of dry patches, and it's hard to find a product that mositurizes without making me look like a grease ball or breaking me out: that does it for me.
It works really well on my very sensitive skin.

I really don't get the hype about this product. I got it in a value set (which I was buying for the ultra repair cream) and tried the whole 28 pads pack. It feels good when you swipe it on your face, but I didn't notice any difference in my skin's texture or dryness or tightness.
It didn't dry my skin out, which is good, I guess, but for that price, I want to see results...

If you have dry eyes, search no more: these are the only eyedrops you'll ever need! When I have allergies or my eyes just feel dry for whatever reason, I always turn to these eyedrops because they're the most effective I tried. My fiancé's eye doctor recommended those to him.
I buy them at Costco in 3 packs, and always keep one in my luggages.

I was underwhelmed by this body lotion, but I have really sensitive skin (and eczema). I love the fact that it's unscented (I can't put scented lotions on all my bodies because I have allergic reactions) and it is fairly moisturizing.
But I can't use it wherever I have eczema, because it burns like there's no tomorrow! If you don't have skin problems, that could be all you need, but it didn't work for me (I guess I'll stick with the La Roche-Posay one).

I have really bad eczema, and had cortisone creams for ten years, which thins the skin. My doctor told me to try this cream, because it could be good to heal.
I was really impressed. It doesn't burn on eczema patches (which is the case for a lot of other creams), it's really rich and moisturizing. It takes a while to penetrate (on my skin, anyway). I put it after shower and it gets rid of eczema (or dry skin) in one to two weeks (which is all I can ask for, really).
I buy it when it's in sale (one to two times a year, at Shoppers) in the biggest format, and I also have travel sizes.
