I recently received this Dove Dry Shampoo in Fresh Coconut to try out from Chickadvisor and I've been really enjoying it.
I spray on the roots of lifted sections of my hair and it leaves no white cast at all, plus it doesn't weigh down my hair. Although I'm not a fan of coconut the scent isn't overwhelming or strong. It just smells fresh and clean, plus it doesn't linger for hours like some scents can. This seems like a gentle dry shampoo (if that makes sense), but it still manages to leave my hair looking fresh and clean. Perfect for lazy summer days!!

The travel makeup wipes work well. They removed makeup quickly without burning my eyes, which is usually an issue for me. They removed all traces of eye makeup, mascara and even liquid lipstick. The scent isn't overpowering, which is a good thing. I really like these, but I'm not a fan of the wasteful packaging. Small packs with more wipes would be more up my alley, although it is nice to be able to just throw one in my purse without having to worry about it drying up. -

I'm a fan of the Hydro Boost line already, so I was extremely excited to see they had a new sunscreen.
Sunscreen is a must for me, being a very pale skinned redhead. I burn without ever tanning, so if I leave the house I'm usually covered in greasy, stinky sunscreen. This stuff is amazing! SPF of 30 and it feels like a luxe lotion that sinks in with no greasy feeling AND it smells like lotion. Not stinky chemicals. This will be my go-to this summer. I can't even tell it's on my skin!

I'm a huge fan of the Hydro Boost Body Cream already, so I was excited to try out the hand cream.
The hand gel cream is just as light and watery feeling as the body cream, which has you questioning the efficacy at first. Most light creams like this tend to be less than moisturizing, but this one sinks in and leaves my hands feeling hydrated, moisturized and protected without being greasy.
The scent is light and lotiony. Nothing over the top. I reach for this every day. Love it!

I was really excited to try out the Vaseline Extremely Dry Skin Rescue Healing Moisture Lotion because my skin has been extremely dry the last few months.
First of all, I do like the pump on this. It's larger and really easy to use. The lotion itself is a medium consistency - not too heavy but also not too light. It has a light lotion scent to it and spreads evenly across the skin.
This cream does absorb quickly, which is nice, yet it leaves my skin feeling soft and moisturized. The lotion did an excellent job of keeping my skin feeling hydrated and moisturized over a long period of time. My only complain is the ingredients contained two different parabens. I really don't want to see that in something I'm putting on my skin regularly.

I was really looking forward to trying out the Vaseline Extremely Dry Skin Rescue Overnight Cream. My skin has been extra dry lately, so I've been having to apply cream nightly.
This particular cream is very thick and has smell that I wasn't too fond of. I'm not sure how to describe it, other than a strong generic lotion smell. It smoothed quickly and easily on to my skin, but it felt quite greasy.
I was really hoping that the greasiness would be short lived and that the cream would start to absorb, but it just didn't. My legs felt greasy and slimy for hours. I realize this is supposed to be a heavier overnight cream, but the feeling of my legs sliding together and being sticky/greasy just had me wanting to take a shower and wash it off. Hours later it still felt the same. When I showered later the next day, the water was still beading up on my skin even after scrubbing with my pouf and body wash.
I also wasn't too impressed with the ingredients listed. It contains two different parabens in it. I won't be using this again or purchasing it.

I wasn't really sure what to expect with this cream. I have pretty dry skin in the winter and generally go for heavier, thicker creams to try and protect my skin. The Neutrogena Hydro Boost Gel Cream was very light weight. It's true to it's name and has a gel like consistency that is almost watery feeling.
It spread well over my skin feeling light and quite wet. I have to say I was a little worried at first because of the wet feeling, but it absorbed quickly leaving behind soft and smooth skin that didn't feel greasy or tacky. My skin actually feels hydrated and moisturized while using this and I really like it, especially after bathing as an all-over body moisturizer.
The scent is light and clean - not overpowering at all. The packaging is bright and the pump is easy to use. I like that this isn't in a tub that I need to dip into. I will definitely be purchasing this one again as it's a great affordable option for me.
*I received this product complimentary for testing purposes.

I like that this has echinacea and zinc in it, especially for when he's not feeling the best. While this one wasn't his favourite, he will still continue to drink this for a little boost.

I like that this has extra vitamin c in it, especially for when he's not feeling the best. While this one wasn't his favourite, he still enjoys making himself a cup.
