This is a skincare saviour! The BEST drugstore Micellar Water out there to remove makeup for the price. It is a dupe of a very popular brand and the bottle even looks similar, but it works so well. Has pretty much no scent, doesn't break me out, and is gentle on my sensitive skin. You don't have to rinse afterwards but I definitely like to. I dont use it to cleanse in the morning but it is awesome for removing my makeup at night. It does not remove my waterproof mascara but neither do any other micellar waters. Definitely seeing myself finishing this and I would totally purchase this once I finish the bottle and one for my best friend too! -

The first issue I have with this is the strong hair product scent! This Moisturizer smells like it is a Garnier shampoo instead, and really bothers me when it comes to putting it on my face. The bottle is small and definitely does not feel like it is worth the crazy price. It is more of a primer and has dimethicone as a top ingredient so I would just wear this under makeup or over a hydrating moisturizer. It seems to have good ingredients despite this, like Vitamin C and E which are excellent for the skin. I like that Garnier is getting better in terms of their skincare products but I just can't stand that this one smells like it should be going on my hair, not my face. -

First of all, the colour of the device I received is a gorgeous green for the festive season. The fact that this is useable with liquid and water products is a great innovation, it is so compact and fits in the hand quite easily, and the design of the charger kind of 'wowed' me. I never thought I needed one of these because I thought that exfoliation scrubs would work just as well. Once trying this out, I am actually impressed and have to say that is not the same as just using typical facial scrubs. It removed my flaky skin and dry patches instantly after one use. If you don't use any other type of exfoliation, this will make up for that! I found I needed to use it very lightly because my skin is very delicate, but I know they do have softer brush heads so it would be worth it to look into one of those. I would recommend using it less often than recommended for those with sensitive or delicate skin. The only issue I had with it is that the vibration bothered my hand after the minute and the initial 24 hour charge is such a tease! The price is also very high and although I have seen more affordable options, I've heard they don't quite live up to the Clarisonic and have yet to try them out. -

MultiVites Gummy Vitamins are super fun to take and a great way to relive your childhood! I used to take gummy vitamins all the time as a kid. These would especially be beneficial to those that are unable to swallow large pills or feel nauseous doing so. They are natural and gluten, peanut, dairy, and soy free so great for those with allergies or intolerances. With doing a quick google search it seems you can get them in larger packs than 70, which is nice to see as with 70 taking 2 a day essentially means it will only last a month. The price I'd think is somewhat average for vitamins. The taste is great and they are yummy to eat. It was harder for me to remember to take these because they aren't portable, and could not easily fit into my pill bottle without affecting the other pills I have in there. For a gummy vitamin, I think there is a decent amount of nutrients and vitamins although there could definitely be much more. I would recommend this to those who are unable to take regular vitamins, or just want a great tasting gummy with added nutrients. (I received this product to review for free through ChickAdvisor) -

The scent was very fresh and enjoyable. I didn't notice any major body odour seeping through at the end of the day, nor did I notice very much white residue or staining that wasn't able to be easily rubbed off. It is wearable with black, even tight dresses, but it does not keep me as dry as I'd like. However, I do like that there is no odour and it holds up throughout the day. I do like that there is a scent because if there is any odour it will mask it much better than an unscented product. Good price for if it goes on sale, otherwise it is standard. -

This is really the only thing I liked out of the 3 things we were sent to review for Crest/oral-b! I love this toothbrush and thought it was going to be a bit harsh on my teeth when I first looked at it, but it was amazingly gentle and massaged my gums, felt like it was really getting in between my teeth and it makes brushing my teeth a little more enjoyable! I LOVE the additional tongue cleaner on the back, and the brush is really easy to clean if you get toothpaste stuck in between the bristles. I really love the gum stimulators on it and I have used a brush like this before by colgate, but the stimulators are a bit shorter and dont feel as nice on the teeth. I would likely purchase this again depending on the price, but I would not overpay for this if I could get something with stimulators for a lower price. I would definitely recommend this brush and it would be great for kids too since the gum stimulators are so amusing!

I have heard many people having trouble with this toothpaste, but I however, had no issues with it. After accepting this to review on behalf of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club, I found a lot of claims that this has stained people's teeth brown which is a huge concern to me. I used this for about a week, and I didn't see that happening so I cannot comment on that. Well I do have a little bit of darker spots on my teeth which isnt too noticeable, but I am unsure whether it is from this product or not. According to the fine print on the bottle, it is only temporary, and may be prevented by adequate brushing or removed at your next dental visit? I don't know about that statement but it concerns me! I didn't notice my teeth any whiter, either though. I did really like the taste, it wasn't too strong, and I do like that it does not contain alcohol. I don't typically use mouthwash because I don't like that I cannot eat or drink for 30 minutes after use. Anyway I like that the cap is easy to use to pour the mouthwash into, although I did experience a little numbing feeling of the tongue a few minutes after use.

Im not exactly sure how to rate this because I did have a weird reaction to it. Many people mention online that after brushing with this toothpaste that the insides of their cheeks and lips had a weird film on it. According to my research that is a thin layer of your skin, and it is due to a reaction of something in the toothpaste that is too strong for your mouth. I noticed this continuously happening so I stopped using the toothpaste. I guess there is something in it that is just too strong for my mouth. It could be a whitening ingredient.. but I use whitening toothpastes all the time and do not have this reaction. The inside of my mouth did feel quite sensitive after.
I let my boyfriend and aunt try the toothpaste, and what happens to me DID NOT happen to them. They liked it.
I did like that it did not burn my mouth, and was not too strong, but the peeling of the skin or film, whatever that is on the inside of the mouth, just steered me away from using this again. If it truly is just a film from the toothpaste, I really dont mind, I had fun picking it out of the inside of my mouth (as gross as that sounds), but if it is my skin, I am really concerned!

Nair Au Naturel Milk and Honey Wax Roll On

Because this is a natural wax, it is a little more gentler on the skin and great for sensitive skin. I love it because it just washes off with water. I have a sugar wax which is a little less effective than this, so I do like this formula better. The only problem is, there is nothing to hold the roller upside down, so when you lay it down then try to put it upside down in your hair to use it again, you have to wait a bit for the wax to move back to the roller (if that makes sense). I do like the formula and it glides on smoothly, and i would definitely purchase this again, if the roller had a stand to hold it upside down. -

I completely agree with the only other review on here! I have thin sparse straight lashes and this is the only mascara I have found that adds so much volume with only 1 coat! I feel like it is a little difficult to get off at night, but I just hold the makeup remover pad to my eye for a minute so it can soften the mascara, allowing it to come off easily. But I know many people don't like this mascara, I definitely recommend it for those who want to trick people into thinking they have more voluminous lashes! -
