I have been enjoying this Degree spray on deoderant since receiving it free from Chick Advisor and Degree. The smell is great and it works all day long at keeping you dry and odour free. The can is quite large so you get alot of product for the price. I would recommend you give this a go. -

According to my husband this deoderant is easy to spray. Smells great and is effective all day long. After a busy day as a custodian, I could still smell the deoderant in the evening which never happens. There's lots of product in the can which makes this a good buy. Highly recommend getting yourself a can and testing this out for yourself. I will be repurchasing. Received free vie Chick Advisor and Degree. -

This primer has a lotion feel and feels hydrating. I tried it our with three different foundations and all of them looked good over top. No balling up or wiping off. I didn't notice any unusual texture on my skin so all in all this is a good primer. You should give it a try. -
I tested out the retoucher a couple times but spraying this on my hair just isn't for me. I don't have enough gray to need this. This isn't a bad product just not a step I want to add into my routine.

This has the cool factor with the triangle shape and the clear, see through lip balm. Unfortunately the lip balm doesn't hydrate the lips for very long, just leaves a shine for a short time.

Nivea has hit the ball out of the park with their Cocoa Butter Body Cream. The formula is luxurious and the price is drug store. This rich lotion has a nice smell and is suitable for all over your body. I especially find it effective on feet and elbows where I tend to need extra hydration.
I give this a BEE Shopping recommendation.

Thank you to Ingenium Naturals for sending me some complimentary products to test and review. I enjoyed them so much that I am now one of their affiliate bloggers. On the sidebar of my blog and in this post you will see links to their website. Even though I received these products for free, you know I will still give my honest opinion. I actually didn’t like every single one of the items I was sent. To be completely transparent I want you to also know if you use one of my Ingenium Naturals links to make a purchase, I will make a small commission. Also Ingenium Naturals is based in Quebec so I’m delighted to write about a Canadian beauty company that makes natural, vegan, and cruelty free products! Go check them out after reading these four product reviews.
This Sensi-Net Exfoilate is the first product I used from this brand and I can’t stop using it! My husband has been using it too and really likes it. My skin feels soft and slightly moisturized after gently massaging it over the face and neck and then rinsing off. I find this gentle enough to use once a day. We keep it in the shower to use each morning. One of the key ingredients is Vitamin C and the exfoliates are pumice stone and apricot shells. I highly recommend getting this product. A bonus is it’s paraben free, eco-friendly, cruelty free, and vegan.

Put your hand up if you like the lemony scent of Pledge furniture polish. That smell takes me back to my childhood, having fun helping my Mom dust the house, except for that time when I broke the lamp. SORRY!
This Resurfacing Micro-Exfoliant from Juice Beauty’s Stem Cellular line smells just like Pledge, in a very good way. So lemony! But I know you want to know do it work for me or not right?
It works so well. I have used it both at night before bed and in the morning before applying my makeup. Smooooooth baby soft skin is the immediate result because it removes dead skin cells and has Vitamin E, aloe, and chamomile. Since I have so many different types of exfoliants open right now I’ve only used this twice a week since receiving it free from Juice Beauty. At most I suggest 2-3 times a week use it optimal.
This is a clay based mask with small particles of grapeseed and jojoba. I found it gentle to use and can’t believe how nice my primer and foundation went on the times I’ve used it in the morning. If you have very sensitive skin than this isn’t for you due to the micro-exfoliants that may cause irritation. It is made with certified organic ingredients for my clean and green beauty people.
I’ll be using this a couple times a week and repurchasing when it’s empty for sure. It’s getting a BEE Shopping recommendation.

Will the Pressed Mineral Powder from Advanced Mineral Makeup get a BEE Shopping recommendation or not?
Trish Green, Director of Sales and Marketing did reach out to me and I so appreciate receiving this full size powder to test out and review for you. Even if a company sends me a free product I always give my honest thoughts so you can decide if it’s a product you want to purchase and the company can use my reviews when reformulating or creating new beauty items.
I have fair skin so asked for the lightest products in their line. They name them after celebrities so you can easily choose what works best for you. I’m in the Taylor (Swift) light tone. Angelina (Jolie) is medium light to medium, Eva (Longoria) is medium to medium dark, and Halle (Berry) represents the dark skin tones. In the future I hope they add a fair and an even deeper skin tone category so they can appeal to even more of the public.
I’ve been using the pressed mineral powder for about 3 weeks now and have used it to set my foundation and under eye concealer plus a handful of times as a powder foundation on its own. I noticed with my large pores that it works best as a powder foundation if I have a pore filling primer underneath, but for a lazy makeup day I could wear it without the primer. In that situation I take more time to blend in my large pore regions (chin, forehead and nose). I feel better about my look having prepped and primed first and it gives enough coverage that I really only needed to go in under my eyes and around my nose with a small detail brush with some extra mineral powder to act as a concealer. One application was all I needed for the redness on my cheeks so I imagine if you have issues with rosacea or acne, you would like the coverage.
As a setting powder it added coverage to my foundation and concealer and set my cream products well. It’s water resistant, no parabens, no perfumes, no fillers, is talc free and has anti-inflammatory properties making it suitable for those with acne and rosacea. I didn’t like the look I was getting under my eyes and tried it with several of my concealers, but have yet to find a combo that I like. I don’t think this is the powder’s fault because it has a soft feel that glides on easily. I’ve not been enjoying any of my concealers lately in the eye area, but that’s another story. I’d be interested in using the AMM Perfecting Concealer with the Pressed Mineral Powder to see if that would solve my under eye issues since they should be formulated to work together.
Advanced Mineral Makeup was developed in 2009 by Annie Mayo, a Celebrity Makeup Artist, to use on TV and film actors. She wanted safe and gentle products that are transfer-proof, fade resistant, free of all known irritants and look good on camera. Another bonus is that all the products in the Advanced Mineral Makeup line provide SPF protection, colour correction, and healing properties. This camera ready makeup is 100% vegan, paraben free and talc free. Great for you clean and green beauty lovers out there!
To find out more and purchase your own Advanced Mineral Makeup visit www.advancedmineralmakeup.com If you are in Canada then I suggest contacting Annie Mayo directly at 1-800-439-9936 for Canadian prices and shipping.
I will continue using this product and am interested in trying the concealer and liquid foundation as well. My final verdict is that Advanced Mineral Makeup Pressed Mineral Powder gets a BEE Shopping rating from me.

I rarely use a hair dryer so this Xtava Silicone Collapsible diffuser attachment was already at a disadvantage when sent to me for free to review. What did intrigue me was the portability for people who travel frequently. It is supposed to fit any size hair dryer and collapses for easy packing.
It does collapse to about an inch in depth and is about the size of my hand in total, so I can see how this would be good to travel with instead of bringing your entire hair dryer. It fits on the one I own so I assume would fit the ones found in most hotel rooms.
I used it once to dry my hair, which I hate doing because I’m an air dry, pony tail or messy clip kind of girl. It worked OK but this isn’t something I need. It’s not a bad product, I just think its not something you really need so it’s getting a BUZZ Off rating from me. Here’s where you can check it out for yourself http://bit.ly/1XP5IRt
