OMG I had no idea Vichy made a Lip Balm prior to reviewing this product.
My lips are permanently chapped, I have used every lip balm, moisturizer, treatment, etc. that there is. Based on my lifetime of research in this area I would say that my rating of 5/5 isa high honour for this balm.
The texture is like a petroleum balm, however silkier and less oily/slick.
I used this balm as my nighttime lip treatment and did not wake with dry lips one time.
As far as the plumping benefit - I can say my lips look healthy and moisturized, but I don't know if they look plumper (?), however they are usually full n their own - so they are enhanced.
I recommend this Lip Balm to anyone who has felt let down in this category in the past - give this one a shot.

Wow - I have used shower gels before, but never a gel cream. Vichy has made a creamy body wash that cleanses, moisturizes and leaves the skin feeling silky.
The scent is very light and floral. Used with the Body Milk after showering/bathing, I found my skin to feel nourished and very luxuriously maintained.
I do recommend being careful in the tub/shower as the product stays on the skin and can make surfaces slippery.
Overall - I love it and recommend!

I tried this Chocolate Pie last summer and it is now one of my faves when having guests.
If you like chocolate, you will love it. There are 3 distinct chocolate textures; the crust, the ice cream centre and the lovely whip topping.
Can I say it is deadly? 'cause it really is.

I very much enjoyed testing this toothpaste for Chick Advisor.
I look primarily for cleanliness and freshness in a toothpaste and Arm & Hammer really delivers. The mint is strong when you you are done and rinsed and the teeth are squeaky clean.
I used the toothpaste with my Arm & Hammer spin brush and the pair go well together.
I highly recommend for those wanting a fresh, clean mouth.

Okay, as a blonde, I don't know that there is a Dry Shampoo that really works for my haircolour. I say this because the spray can make the hair lighter in texture, but the roots darken when the sebum is produced and I don't think any product can cover that.
I used this on my day off and found it worked inasmuch that it did add volume and texture, but I wouldn't use this and go to work with it.
I still rate 3/5 as I think it worked as good as any other Dry Shampoo I have tried. I think brunettes or ladies with darker hair in general would find this a go-to product.

ahh I love this hairspray! I have hair to my shoulders with layers in it and I try to achieve light curl and bounciness for my daily 'look'.
TBH 'flexible' hold works perfect for me. It keeps the curls separated but don't make anything sticky or un-moveable. Love it.

Dove Pure Care Dry Oil Nourishing Hair Treatment with African Macadamia Oil

I used this product on damp clean hair as directed and also on dry hair to tame flyways and add shine.
I really love it. I avoid conditioners and products with oils as I tend to oiliness already, but I found that this really did not add to the look of grease in my hair.
I do find this to have a nice scent, but it lingers and is a bit strong. I don't mind it, though as it is pleasant and only docked 1/2 a mark.

As I used this together with the shampoo, my review is very similar...
I usually avoid moisturizing conditioners, favouring detanglers, as my hair tends to oiliness- however I really like Dove Nutritive Solutions Daily Moisture Conditioner.
This conditioner for me, really helped hold volume and bounce, and since I have very straight hair that usually just lies flat, this is a big bonus for me!
I did not get an greasiness fro the moisturizing and was able to condition on my regular intervals with the shampoo..

Okay this is my favourite make up remover ever. I am a happy convert to Micellar Water now.
It is like just smoothing a cotton pad of water over your face, it is a little bubbly, but not greasy and does not require rinsing off. Note - there are oil bubbles in this, that is what micelles are (apparently), but they just rinse away without having to was them off.
I do have to do a few passes when I have full make up on, but I think that considering the size of the bottle, I don't have a problem with that. I have read that waterproof products are difficult to remove with Micellar Waters, however I don't use those products, so this worked well for me.
