This product is seriously amazing. I mostly use it in the winter to help protect my brittle and weak nails. It's such a pretty colour, both in the bottle and when you paint it on your nails. I often end up just wearing this alone because it looks so polished but I'll never wear regular nail polish without putting this on underneath ever again. It is a little pricey, it's around $29 in Canada as well, but I got it from eBeauty (the Canadian beauty site) and it shipped to me for free since it was over $25. I'm not even sure if drugstores carry this so as long as eBeauty does, I'll be happy!

I love this tanning spray. It's the best application I've had (aside from going to the actual spray tan salon) for any at-home spray. It is a little pricey, but it's still a lot cheaper than going and getting it done professionally. It's so easy to use and I found that the colour went on very evenly, which made it look really natural. Plus it's easy to control exactly how much of the solution you are using so you can build your tan to look more natural or more like you came back from an awesome tropical vacation! I haven't actually been able to find this in the stores in Canada but I did luck out and find it online at eBeauty, the Canadian beauty site. I was lucky because it ended up shipping for free, which was awesome considering that I was on the fence about buying it. This is a definitely recommendation for anyone who wants a natural and food-proof tan!

it's a little pricier than drugstore nail polish remover but it's soo worth it! It takes the polish off quickly (even glitter)! and doesn't leave my nails feeling as weak as the cheaper quality ones do. It also doesn't have that gross smell that other removers have. I would even go so far as to say it smells good! After they discontinued the line at Sephora i was worried I wouldn't be able to find it again but ended up getting lucky and finding it on eBeauty, the online Canadian beauty site. I bought this with some other nail polish products by them to push my order over $25 to qualify for the free shipping!

I love how easy it is to apply this foundation to my face. It glides on nicely and gives a pretty creamy finish that looks natural and not done up. Probably one of my favourite things is that there is SPF 15 protection, which is great since I never get around to putting on sunscreen in the winter. The bonus is that is comes in a pretty compact with a sponge so you don't have to worry about finding the right brush to apply it with. I'd been using it for about a year and buying it from Sephora when they stopped selling it. It was by sheer luck that I found in again at eBeauty (the online Canadian beauty site). They have a ton of other Paul and Joe products that I'm excited to try too. They have free shipping over $25 so it even shipped for free to me, hassle free woohooo!

This is one of the best base coats I've used yet. You can tell it's a very nice quality by the way it fills in the ridges in your nails before you put on polish. I used to never use a base coat because I thought it was pointless - until I tried this! Now I'm completely converted to basecoats and i would never paint my nails without putting this on underneath first. I couldn't find this in any Canadian stores but lucked out and saw it on eBeauty, the Canadian beauty site. Now that I know where to get it, I'll never run out!

Okay, so I was extremely skeptical about buying this brush because of the steep price tag but finally splurged and bought it on the recommendation of my hair dresser. I'm soo glad I ended up making the jump because I will never go back to a regular brush after using this. I have long, thick, wavy hair that can be hard to manage at times. The brush actually massages your scalp and even helps get tangles out. I used to use a ton of product in my wavy hair to make it look shiny and controlled (slash frizz-free, bleh) but this brush actually made my hair softer AND shinier without it looking greasy and gross. I found out after I bought the product that each brush is hand made and the company has been around since the 1800s. So if you're looking for a high-quality brush that's going to last you a LONG time, definitely give this a try. The only real downside is the price. It's definitely hefty, but for the quality of the brush and for the fact that you'll (hopefully) never have to buy a brush for a very long time, it could really even out in the long-run. I shopped around for it for quite some time before I ended up getting it and found a bunch of different sizes from eBeauty (the Canadian beauty site). Some were obviously cheaper than others but I chose the one that cost around $160 since it seemed to be the best size for my huge hair. I'd definitely recommend going this route because it shipped for free right to my door, which meant I didn't have to go back and hunt it down in a local salon.

This product is definitely a good supplement perfume to my collection. I think it's cheap enough that I can wear it every once in awhile to switch things up from my regular perfume. At $39, it's WAY cheaper than a lot of the department store perfumes you can find and I think it smells good! Not going to lie, I was a little put off buy the whole Kim Kardashian thing but I smelled it in the drugstore and went home not sure if I would buy it or not. Anyhow, I ended up finding it on eBeauty (the Canadian beauty site) for the same price as Shoppers, plus it was delivered for free right to my door because of a free shipping over $25 promotion they have going on. Hello, saving gas money! I'm really glad I ended up buying it. It's more of a musky fragrance, with jasmine, tuberrose, gardenia, tonka bean, jacaranda wood and sandalwood notes, so i think it's a little sexy and sultry (which never hurts!).

I recently ordered this off of eBeauty, the Canadian beauty site, because they had emails me a cool feature with all their top rated eye looks. I'd tried other primers in the past and wasn't impressed so I'm glad I ended up giving them another shot. I couldn't be happier I tried this! It worked wonders on my thin lashes. It dried quickly after I did two coats of it and then followed with my regular drugstore mascara which looked way better than usual. Also, I used less mascara so I think using the primer with the mascara is going to let both go a pretty long way so even though it's initially a little pricey, it'll save me a few dollars in the end.

My nails are naturally thin and I've always been a nail peeler and biter, which never helped things. I tried this on the recommendation of a friend and it completely transformed my nails. It smells nice, unlike a lot of other brands I've tried and not been impressed with. It uses lanolin and beeswax, two super moisturizing ingredients so I'm not surprised by how soft it makes my hands feel. I usually put it on before going to work and then before I go to bed so it has time to sink in. To the ladies above, I'm not sure if any of you are from Canada, but I got it from eBeauty, the Canadian makeup site. They have a delivery promo going on right now for free shipping over $25 so it's nearly free to have this ordered to your door (just add another container to stock up and push it over the limit, haha). Anyhow, it's been in stock for awhile and I just looked it up now and it's still there. So hopefully if you're having trouble looking for it, just order it online!

SUCH a great colour and goes on amazing. I always get tons of compliments whenever I wear it, which is always nice. I think it lasts just as long as any OPI polish, so definitely check out some of their cool colours. They have a lot of muted more neutral colours that are still trendy that I tend to gravitate towards.
