The most important thing for handcreams in my opinion is that it isn't too greasy but keeps my hand moisturized, and this handcream delivers. I was expecting that this product would might be oily as it was advertised as anti aging, but it absorbed nicely and was moisturizing. I would recommend to others looking for a handcream to use at night.

Being an oil, I was expecting that this product would be very greasy and just sit on my skin, however, I was pleasantly surprised that it absorbed quickly when applied and left my skin feeling moisturized. I was happy with using this as a summer moisturizer and would recommend to others looking for a light moisturizer.

As I have long hair, the tips of my hair tend to be more dry and prone to splitting. Conditioner usually helps with this issue but some conditioners tend to feel heavy on my hair. Over the two weeks I tested this conditioner, I felt that regular use of it has helped my hair feel more hydrated overall while not being too heavy feeling. I also loved the scent of this conditioner (and of the shampoo from the same line) – the coconut water and lime combination was light and fresh, and not too overpowering. I’d definitely consider repurchasing this conditioner.

The main advertising point of this shampoo was its nourishing hydration qualities, and in my opinion, it delivers. As I have long hair, the tips of my hair tend to be more dry and prone to splitting. Over the two weeks I tested this shampoo, I felt that regular use of it has helped my hair feel more hydrated overall. Usually other shampoos seem to strip more moisture when I wash, which then gets made up for with the accompanying conditioner, but I didn’t feel that to be the case with this shampoo. I also loved the scent of this shampoo (and of the conditioner from the same line) – the coconut water and lime combination was light and fresh, and not too overpowering. I’d definitely consider repurchasing this shampoo and use in place of my regular shampoo.

Garnier’s Micellar Cleansing Water, in short, is great stuff. I apply it on a cotton pad and use it to wipe off any makeup for the day. It works as advertised, and doesn’t leave my skin too dry or tight afterwards, just clean. It comes in a huge bottle and is scent-free as well which is a big plus for me. Definitely recommend.

I was really looking forward to trying Garnier’s Miracle Anti-Fatigue Wake-up Hydra Gel Moisturizer in their SkinActive product line, as I work long hours and its promise of “fresh, rested, youthful looking skin all day, every day” sounded pretty enticing. With it being winter I also needed a day moisturizer that would keep my face moisturized as I was prone to more dry skin in this time. I think this gel moisturizer is successful on both counts. The gel is fairly lightweight and applies almost matte on my skin in the morning. While it absorbs quickly, it wasn't greasy and kept my face feeling moisturized for most of the work day, which I think helped with making my skin look fresh during the day. I started noticing these effects after using it for a few days. Supplemented with a heavier night cream, I’d definitely consider continuing to use this gel moisturizer as my day cream. If you’re looking for a lightweight yet moisturizing day moisturizer, I would recommend you to try this product out.

Brookside Dark Chocolate Tablet Bars are a great to fulfill any sweet cravings after a meal with its unique fruit and dark chocolate combinations. The bars are split into different sizes of squares so you can snap off a little (or a big!) piece of chocolate, whatever size you want to have. The price is right compared to other chocolate bars of this quality, and I would consider buying these again or gifting them to friends and family. If you're a fan of dark chocolate, I would recommend trying these out.

Cherries and chocolate have always paired well together, and that was no exception in this chocolate bar. The dark chocolate is rich and smooth, and the cherry is not too sweet – great for a little sweet indulgence. Unfortunately I couldn’t taste much of the pomegranate in this, it might have been overpowered by the cherry.
In my opinion it’s great to fulfill any sweet cravings after a meal – I like how the bar has different sizes of squares so you can snap off just the right amount of chocolate. The price is right compared to other chocolate bars of this quality, and I would consider buying these again or gifting them to friends and family.
