I got this product for free from Butterly to try. I have short sparse lashes and when I use mascara I am looking for volume.. I do 3 layers, 3 different products to get my preferred look. I always start with a lash primer ( current favourite is the cover girl one) and then use a volumizing mascara and then something to add a light length and to sperate. When using this without a primer, my lashes do look better than when I use any other Covergirl mascara, but they don’t look great. There isn’t a lot of volume to them. This is a wet formula and doesn’t build on itself the best. My lashes are seen, but nothing more. When I use a primer and this, then they look pretty great. They don’t clump, there is volume and it’s not to much that it weights down my lashes, which can be another problem I deal with. I have never really liked any of the Covergirl mascaras I’ve tried in the past. The exebitionist is a dry formula and adds volume, but transfers on me. This one seems to open my eyes, it’s a little natural, it I like it. I like the natural bristles brush, it has a curve shape and the lengths of the bristles are different on both sides. Overall one of the better Covergirl mascaras I’ve tried. -

I like ice cream, it it doesn’t always like me. So it’s not wort the digestive issues. Frozen yogurt doesn’t cause me these issues but they don’t always have the texture I want or the flavours. This one does. It’s super rich and creamy and has lots of blueberry flavour in all bites. There’s not much more to say about it. It’s worth the price. -
Dove Men + Care Refillable Deodorant Starter Kit, Fresh Feel
This product has a nice scent that seems to be long lasting. The refillable cartridge is a great idea to help reduce plastic waste. Travel friendly size is nice too.

At one point Dove deodorants didn’t work for me. It didn’t cover my BO so I stopped using them and switched to clinical deodorant. Ive stoped using clinical deodorants that have aluminum and switched to natural deodorants. The deodorant is a gel, it goes on clear and yes as the package says there’s no aluminium, but my understanding is that there never was in this formula. I was able to use it for everyday and also when working out. It held up, no BO smell, just fresh cucumber scent. The best part about this is the new metal packaging. This is great! So must less plastic is being used. I’ve never understood why womens deodorants have so much less product in them, they are only ever 1|2 filled. It’s a waste of space and now we don’t have to deal with excess plastic. The only plastic that’s now used is to house the deodorant capsule. The metal holder looks good, it’s weighty and functional. Very impressed of the update -

I was a little surprised to get a foil packet to use as my sample to write this review. It also showed up 3 days before this was due. I wasn’t able to really test it much. I have oily skin and lots of moisturizers make me so greasy, or break me out. This works with my oily skin, I didnt get oily, and my skin doesn’t skin like it normally does. This seems ok. There’s no real scent and I like the light gel cream formula. -

The packaging and cooking instructions couldn’t be any easier. I like the ease of preparing it. I also enjoy the texture of the mix of grains in this product. I have however come to the conclusion I don’t like lemon. This does have a nice lemon flavour mixed with other spices. What’s nice about it is that it’s not salty. So many side dishes have flavour and so much salt in it. This one doesn’t seem to do that. I will be trying out the other flavours as they seem to be more my style. -

I generally no longer use facial wipes. I either use them to help take off my make up. Or I used to use them in the morning or mid day after a work out, when I was sweaty and kinda gross. I wouldn’t use these to take off my make up, but I think it maybe be good to use in the morning, or to clean up. The size is pretty standard, average thickness too. There is an scent, maybe aloe, nothing to strong. So once I used them on my face, I have oily skin, it felt kinda wet and sticky. Then it dried down and it felt hydrated, so the lord Ute listed do actually something for your skin. You need to figure out if that’s a good thing for your skin type. For me, using this on my oily skin, mid day, after the gym, I think my face would feel ok till I showered later and did my nighttime skin care. So they are ok, nothing special, and they’re not bad at all. -
Neutrogena Skin Balancing Gentle Clay Cleanser for Oily Skin Type

I’m always looking for a new cleanser, not because I need one, but more out of boredom. I haven’t used many clay cleansers, those I have are typically a mask/ face wash. This is like that, the formula is very thin and liquify, nothing thick about it. It’s not gritty, there’s a nice light fresh minty scent. I have oily skin, so if the face wash is to gentle, then I face doesn’t feel clean. Then there’s the face washes made for oily skin, that almost strip it, and you skin feels squeaky clean and I produce even more oils. This has a nice balance, it washes my face, and it doesn’t feel stripped, I’m not rushing to put moisturizer on my skin. I like it, it’s different but effective -

I was given the chance to try out this product for free by Chick Advisor. I have been on the hunt for the "perfect" natural deodorant. Prior I was using Secret Clinical, loved it, it works in masking my BO. I don't care if I sweat, I care if you can smell me. Then I switched to natural. So years later, still never found a good natural deodorant that can cover my scent. Now I'm in love to my men's gel deodorant, Old Spice. So this Degree was compared to that. It's a gel formula, no irritation, no residue, good start. The scent is ok, I was worried that it would clash with my scent, many times these "Botanical" scent will do that. This one didn't, it's a light, clean scent, can't in point what it actually smells like, but it's ok, nothing overpowering, no head ache. I can smell it on my for most of the day, but I don't mind it. I can work out, and I don't smell my BO, I just smell the deodorant! The only downfall to this deodorant is the texture. The Live Clean deodorant does this too, my underarms are sticky!. This drives me crazy! If you wear a sweater, the lint will stick to your underarms. I worry that it's not always easy to wash it off, as it makes like a coating. So it's ok, but I'll stick with my Old Spice. -
