Dove Style + Care Amplifier Mouse is currently what I am using. It is a very affordable product that is not sticky to the touch, and leaves my hair with volume yet still very light weight.
My only complaint would be the sent is quite overbearing, and remains strong throughout the day. It's not a bad scent, just very strong.

Garnier SkinActive Micellar Water was provided by Chick Advisor for review. I've been using this product in place of my cleanser for the past two weeks.
This is a great alternative cleanser for days when you just don't have the energy or time to wash your face. It removed all of my non-water proof make up well, and left my face feeling clean, but not over-drying, which was quite impressive. It also left my skin feeling toned and hydrated.
To my surprise I have not broken out from using this product, and there may be no more need to spend money on cleansing wipes when there now is an affordable alternative, no water needed, cleanser for those days I need a quick face cleaning solution!

Garnier SkinActive Clearly Brighter Brightening and Smoothing Moisturizer was provided from Chick Advisor for review. I have been using this product in place of my current daytime moisturizer for the past two weeks.
The first thing I notice immediately was the low SPF rating. Daytime moisturizes should at least have an SPF of 20. The next thing I notice was the strong perfume sent that lingered on my face for most of the day.The scent made it a challenge to enjoy some of the benefits of this product, such as how light weight and non-greasy the texture was on my skin.
Unfortunately, there was no brightening effect on the skin as stated. It does leave the skin feeling moisturized, but there is nothing special about this moisturizer for me to continue to use it.

This product was provided from Chick Advisor for review. I received the Dream Blender a little over a week ago to try.
My first impression was the sponge felt quite hard and looked too small to do a quick foundation application.
After wetting the sponge and because of how nonporous it is, it did not absorbed a enough water and did not grow in size like a beauty blender does.
The handle for the Dream Blender was nice to have to avoid putting your fingers all over the sponge applicator, but the sponge itself did not allow for blending the foundation onto the face easily. It took a lot of swipes and circular motions to get the foundation to spread evenly.
One nice thing about the blender is the tip end does allow you to get to the noes and eye area nicely. If the sponge on the handle could be made of better material like the Beauty Blender, and became slightly bigger and softer after wet, it would make for a great tool to use daily.
Unfortunately, this product is a fail as is.

This product was provided from Chick Advisor for review. I received the Dream Velvet Foundation in the shade 20 classic Ivory a little over a week ago to try. Presently, my skin tone is medium to light due to the winter season.
My first impression was the mouse like texture of the the foundation was less of a mess to use compared to liquid foundation, and the product coming in a light squeezable tube container was ideal.
Unfortunately, that is where the positive review ends for this foundation. Using the dream blender to apply the product was not the easiest or smoothest application. I found the foundation due to its matte finish blended quite patchy on the skin, and it took a lot of swiping and moving the blender in circular motions to get foundation to look smooth on the face. A little goes a long way, and you can get a full coverage and cakey look quite easily.
After application the foundation looks quite matte on the face, and setting it lightly with translucent powder is best. Throughout the day the foundation slightly oxidizes and my face, especially the t-zone became very oily looking. I found myself having to blot my face several times throughout the day. And, at the end of the day of wearing the foundation for over 8 hours, my skin looked oily, but it also felt quite tight and dry in some areas.
I was really excited about this product, but sadly it was just not a great foundation from beginning to end.

I prefer the original Batise Dry Shampoo scent to the Blush Floral and Flirty scent. Although the scent is not overbearing, it would be more appealing to a younger age group.
It does do a great job in absorbing the oils in my hair. After leaving the product on for a few minutes, I'll run my fingers or use a comb through my hair. I'm left with hair that feels and looks clean.
I've used this product in between washes or when I needed to just give my already clean hair more life.

This is my go to dry shampoo. The scent is not overbearing, leaving my hair smelling fresh with hints citrus and floral. After spraying on Batiste Dry Shampoo and letting the product absorb on for a few minutes, I'll run my fingers or use a comb through my hair. Each time I'm left with hair that feels and looks clean.
I'll use this product in between washes or when I just need to give my already clean hair more life.
A holly grail product!

Aveeno Skin Relief Hand Cream has a silky texture when applied, and leaves my hands feeling soft and smooth. I do feel like the product absorbs into the skin quickly, but there is also a feeling of a thin barrier that is left on my hands leading me to believe my skin is well protected. There is also no fragrance to this cream, which is what I look for.
My cons would be that this product does not have active anti-aging ingredients in it, or SPF.

Reversa antioxidant booster serum contains green tea extract, which helps reduce the appearance of redness of the skin due to harmful UV rays, Vitamins E, which helps protect skin cells, and b-glucan, which helps stimulate the skin's natural defense mechanisms. It also contains no parabens!
There is citrus and green tea scent to the serum, which I quite like. The formula is light weight and quickly absorbs into the skin. It leaves the skin hydrated, and feeling smooth and soft. I have notice that I have not broken out from using this product and will continue to use it under my moisturizer at night.
As for reversing the signs of again, only more time will tell.

Scotch Essentials Easy Fix Button package comes with 4 pins, 2 white buttons, 2 grey buttons and four buttons with adhesive. This is an easy and quick way to reattach or add a missing button while on the go.
I gave this product to my boyfriend to use, since he had a few shirts with missing buttons. Funny thing is he never cuts off the extra button that often comes with his shirts, so he was able to use the extra buttons, instead of the ones that came with package, This allowed him to not only quickly fix his missing button dilemma, but he was able to use his existing buttons to make his shirts not look like it was a patch job!
As my boyfriend stated..."very cool." :)
