Dove Refillable Deodorant Starter Kit in the scent Coconut + Pink Jasmine comes with a beautiful sturdy stainless steel case that is intended to last you a lifetime. Its refills use 54% less plastic and are made from 98% recycled plastic. The deodorant contains 0% aluminum and boasts 48 hours of odour protection. It also uses Dove's signature 1/4 moisturizers to care for your skin.
I like the heavy feel of the case. The deodorant glides on really easily.
It is a wetter feel than the deodorants I am used to, but it dries down pretty quickly.
The scent is lovely. I can't smell coconut at all, but I really enjoy the sweet and spicy smell of the pink jasmine. The odour protection lasts all day, but I might reapply if I was planning to go out in the evening.
I was gifted this deodorant in exchange for my honest review.

My son noted that the feel of the case would take some getting used to, as it is heavier and smaller than his usual deodorant. He also said that the deodorant felt wet while applying it, but dried quickly.
He really enjoyed the fresh scent of this deodorant. He said that it lasted as long as his usual antiperspirant and he did not notice a difference in the odour protection it provided.

L'Oréal Paris Wrinkle Expert 45+ Night Moisturizer with Retino-Peptide provides intense hydration and helps improve firmness and reduce wrinkles. I used this in combination with the L'Oréal Paris Wrinkle Expert 45+ Day Moisturizer.
The texture is thicker than the day cream and it feels slightly greasy after applying it. It takes 10-15 minutes to really sink into my skin, but afterwards there is no sticky residue.
In the morning, my skin felt very soft and smooth. After a few days my skin also felt a bit firmer. There was no significant difference in my fine lines, but I would expect that to take a little longer to notice.
The fragrance was, like with the day cream, a little perfumed for my taste, but was not unpleasant or overpowering.

L'Oréal Paris Wrinkle Expert 45+ Anti-Wrinkle Day Moisturizer with Retino-Peptide provides 24 hr hydration, increases elasticity and firmness and helps reduce wrinkles.
The texture is fairly lightweight and is easy to apply. It does feel slightly greasy at first, but does eventually sink in without leaving a sticky residue.
The cream left my skin feeling hydrated and smooth from the first application and after a few days I noticed some improvement in firmness. There hasn't been a significant improvement in my fine lines, but I would probably need to use it a bit longer before really noticing a change. I have deep ridges on my fingers and I have noticed some improvement since I've been using this cream.
It has a perfume-like scent that isn't unpleasant or strong, but I would much rather no scent at all or something a little more natural.
I used this cream in combination with the L'Oréal Paris Wrinkle Expert 45+ Anti-Wrinkle Night Moisturizer with Retino-Peptide.

COVERGIRL Clean Fresh Skincare Weightless Water Cream acts as a lightweight moisturizer and a primer all in one to keep your skin hydrated for 72 hours.
I really like that it is vegan, clean and cruelty-free. It also contains no mineral oil, talc, parabens or sulfates, which is a plus in my books.
I really enjoyed the light, almost gel like texture if this cream. It glides on smoothly and left my face feeling plumped and hydrated well into the next day when it was time to do my routine again.
Although I didn't use this as a primer, I could tell by the way my skin felt that it had created the perfect surface to apply makeup if I had wanted to do so.
There is a very light fresh scent to this cream. It is lovely and not overpowering at all. I could smell it faintly on my skin while I was applying it, but the scent dissipated as it sank into my skin.
Overall, I really liked this cream and I'm excited to see a favourite brand from years ago branching into clean skincare!

OXY Deep Pore Cleansing Acne Pads with Salicylic Acid worked well to reduce my son's acne and leave his skin clean and less oily.
He used the pads every day after washing his face with the OXY Volcanic Ash Acne Scrub. After a week or so of using the pads his skin looked clearer and his remaining spots were smaller and less red than before.
The pads tingled but did not burn like other products he has used. The smell, while not bad, wasn't very nice either.
There is a lot of extra solution in the bottle, so once the pads provided are gone, you could use cotton rounds to use it all.
Overall, the pads work well and have improved the look and feel of my son's skin. I would definitely recommend them to anyone struggling with acne.

Volcanic Ash Acne Scrub with Bentonite Clay and Salicylic Acid is a fantastic acne scrub that gently but deeply cleans your pores and treats your acne at the same time.
My son used this scrub daily, followed by the OXY Deep Pore Cleansing Acne Pads with Salicylic Acid. After a week or so of use, his skin was clearer and his remaining spots were smaller and less red.
My son really enjoyed the smell of this scrub. I think it smells like a combination of grape and mint. He also liked how the scrub made his skin feel after using it. He said that it gave him a cooling sensation on his skin and also made it feel so soft. His skin looked clean and less oily.
The scrub feels gritty on the fingers as you apply it, but my son said that it did not feel gritty on his face like you would expect a scrub to feel. He said he knew when to rinse it off as it dries as you apply it. It was easy to rinse off and did not stick onto his face.
Overall, this scrub worked very well to help my son's skin stay clean and exfoliated as well as help reduce his acne. I would definitely recommend this scrub to help treat acne.

Crest Pro-Health Advanced Gum Restore Deep Clean toothpaste helps prevent and treat gingivitis, gives you healthier gum and prevents cavities. This toothpaste contains stannous Floride, which has been proven to treat and prevent gingivitis.
I can honestly say that my gums have never felt healthier. I have had sore and sometimes bleeding gums since I was a child and since using this toothpaste my gums no longer bleed when brushing and my gums do not feel sore at all.
The Gum Restore toothpaste also has a lovely minty taste that foams up nicely when you brush to really clean along the gum line. My mouth feels clean and smells fresh after brushing.

Degree Women Black + White Antiperspirant Dry Spray claims to help prevent white marks on dark clothing and yellow stains on white clothing.
I can honestly say that this did not leave any white marks or residue on my black or dark clothes and I did not notice any yellow staining on my lighter clothes while trying this dry spray.
I normally use a natural deodorant, but some days you need the extra protection of an antiperspirant. This dry spray worked well to keep me dry and smelling fresh all day.
The spray was easy to use, but you needed a light touch on the nozzle or the spray would be very strong. The smells was pleasant and not overpowering.
