I got these for free from ChickAdvisor for review purposes. I’ve purchased and used these before. Its almost impossible for me to remove my makeup with just wipes or makeup removing solutions. I absolutely need to use oil to break them down (especially mascara and eyeliner) and use make up wipes to remove the breakdowns and residues. These wipes weren’t any different and I still needed to use oil prior to using the wipes. Removes foundation and lipsticks properly though.
However, I like that its soft and smelled great. The packaging was perfect size to carry in my handbag. I recommend it and I will be buying it again.

I got it for free for review purposes. The quantity was so little to get a proper feel for it. First time using it, felt exactly the same as any other moisturizer I use on a daily basis. I didn’t feel anything significant to change my usual moisturizer to this product. It smelled good and the texture was light and non-greasy. I see myself using this product again if I ever find being on sale or something. Otherwise, I recommend it. -
Neutrogena Hydro Boost Water Gel Sunscreen SPF 50

I used to avoid sunscreens because of how greasy and gross they looks when I put them on. It was impossible to look good wearing it, so convinced myself that I firmly believe ‘brown skin doesn’t need sun protection’ B*sh*t. Hahaha! When I used the generic ones in the market, they made me look ashy and more bizarre in photos with flash, Lol!
I did learn recently what harmful UV rays can do to your skin and the fact that skin tone doesn’t matter - Skin of all tones needs protection to avoid any sort of risks urged me to get into the routine of using sunscreen on regular basis. When I got this one for free in the mail for review purposes, I was excited!!! So far its been good. Its a little greasy, but when I put makeup on top - It makes me look like I have highlighter. Unexpected, but I like it! It really is lightweight and doesn’t clog my pores. I took a few selfies and I don’t look like a ghost! Yay!
It is verrrryyy pricey for sunscreen, definitely a luxury product for sure.

Seems to be in high demand in my area. I had to go to various stores to find this product. I was finally able to find it at Shoppers Drugmart!
So worth it though! I did not expect this ice cream to taste this good!! I honestly cannot tell the difference between this product which only has 280 calories for the whole pint and the traditional calorie-packed ice creams - It tastes the same or better. I can finally indulge myself eating this and not feel guilty. It's rich and creamy, doesn't have the chalky taste at all. The price is pretty high for a 500 ML pack though. It will be great for a once in a while treat, but I can't see myself buying it every time I go grocery shopping because of the price. I would gladly pay $8.99 CAD for this product, but not for 500 ML size.
I totally recommend this product!

PROS:
My hair gets really oily after a day. Usually I’m the kind of girl who would throw my hair in a bun and not wash it for at least 3 days or so when it starts getting oily, but there are days where I can’t do that and I need my hair down or washed. Batiste really helps me with it and gives me that extra one more day to go without washing my hair. I should’ve gotten the product for dark hair, instead I got the Original version and every time I use it, it takes me insanely long time to blend it into my hair without looking like I’m turning old and grey lol!
CONS:
It smells great, but leaves fine white powder on my hair as if its not blended properly. It didn’t last all day for me either. It works for a few hours and then my hair goes flat and starts showing that’s it oily again. Like I said earlier, I use this only when I absolutely can’t wear my hair up and need to go one more day without washing. When I wash my hair after using this, I feel like I need to use my nails or just work my scalp a bit more harder than I usually do to absolutely get all the leftover product off my scalp. Otherwise, it looks like I’ve dandruff, but this could be the case because I’m using a product that’s not meant for my hair color.
Overall, I will recommend this product for all the last min quick fixes for sure, and definitely pick the color that’s closest to your hair color.

First reaction: My dog went crazy for this treat! He chewed on it contentedly and was done with the treat in 10 secs. He seemed to like the flavor and it wasn't an over powering smell either.
Unfortunately, I only had only one of these sent to me to try out. I didn’t see any difference in one try, but I probably will be buying more of these in the future to see if it actually works.

I usually switch my face wash every time I run out of my old one, and I got this one from winners. I like it. Its nothing special about it. However, its very gentle on my sensitive skin, but overusing it leads it to strip away all the oils off my face leaving it very dry and stretchy. Helps clearing out the occasional acnes I get, but it doesn't help preventing it from happening. May not be suitable for heavy acne problems.
A tiny dollop goes a long way with this product. I’ve been using mine for over a year now.

Got these as gift for Christmas 2 years ago (I know its weird). Didn’t care for it until I ran out of my regular body wash. I wouldn’t say I’m in love with it but its definitely not bad. Its very moisturizing and gentle on the skin. It doesn’t suck out all the moisture out of my skin.
I just find it inconvenient that its not in liquid format. I know that they have liquid body washes as well, but personally I don’t see myself going out of my way to try their other body washes, especially knowing that dove products uses a lot of chemicals in them and is also tested on animals. I’m against for both of those things.
I won’t be buying these again.

By far my favourite eyeliner!! I love that this liner dries matte, dries quickly, and glides on easily. The applicator is so easy to use and sorta help with making those beautiful wings. It glides on easy, even on glitter eyeshadows properly. The precision of the tip is on point, it's tapered. I use it at least 2 times in a day and it literally lasts up to 3-4 months for me because it doesn’t dry out unlike many other expensive liners out there.
I’ve been using this eye liner for a year or so. It lasts up to 8 hours in a day as long as I don’t touch my eyes or cry for any reason, otherwise it would run down my eyes making me look like a raccoon.

Been using Live clean products for over 2 years now. A bit pricey for my liking but I stopped caring about the price once I learned about the negative effects of Sodium lauryl sulphate (SLS), sodium laureate sulphate (SLES). This is my personal favourite because its really gentle on my sensitive & dry skin. It doesn’t strip away all the moisture off my body.
Vanilla and oatmeal is a great combination. Smell is not too strong either, which is perfect because it doesn’t interfere with my perfume. Always love using Live Clean products.
