I just started a Keto diet and this tea is totally saving my life right now!
This naturally caffeine-free rooibos tea with caramel comes in a sustainable and recyclable package. It contains traces of caramel (meaning lactose, sugar, and carbs), but I did the ketone test after drinking it, and my levels were still low, so its keto-friendly. I also diluted it in 2 cups to make sure I am not getting too much sugar from it.
The tea has a lovely smell and is sweet, nutty, and scrumptious. I add a splash of heavy cream for a more luxurious experience. Since it doesn't have caffeine, I have been drinking it after meals, as a dessert.
It may be my sugar starved body speaking but I loved this tea.

I love Clarins! It is one of my go-to brands because their products are incredible, and this one is not an exception.
This water-based dayly cream has a gel-like texture and feels light on the skin, being perfect for the hot weather. It doesn't feel greasy or sticky at all, as it gets completely absorbed by my skin and leaves it feeling hydrated and soft. I also like how it tightens my pores, especially around the nose.
It has the typical Clarins scent, which I love, and is quite neutral, not interfering with the other products I use.
My only complaint about it is, since it is lightweight and more suitable to be used as a day cream, it ideally should have SPF.

I've never used a 100% natural antiperspirant before and was surprised by its efficiency.
This antiperspirant is hypoallergenic and free of aluminum, parabens, and artificial perfumes. Its texture is creamy, yet it doesn't glide as well on the skin like a regular antiperspirant. I don't feel like it could be a problem, except if you have sensitive skin.
I found that it doesn't leave stains on your clothes, and I also enjoyed its light and fresh scent. I didn't have the chance to try it during strenuous exercise, but it works pretty well in regular conditions, and it performed adequately during a 10km walk I did this last holiday.
It won't last 24 hours, especially now that the weather is getting warmer, but you can always reapply it.

Garnier Fructis Hydrating Aloe Treat Shampoo for Dry, Damaged Hair

When you get a shampoo good for the planet with a 94% biodegradable formula, vegan, and comes in a recyclable bottle, you have to try it!
Also, it is made with 98% naturally derived ingredients and doesn't contain parabens or artificial colors, being good for you as well.
My hair is now platinum blond, so I prefer to use professional hair products, but since this shampoo is suitable for color-treated hair, I didn't hesitate to try it out.
It smells nice and fresh, ladders well, and cleans your hair as it is supposed to. I loved how it hydrated my hair and left it soft without weighing it down.
Again, this shampoo is not on the same level as professional ones but still works pretty well.

The Bright Boost Gel Cream promises to awaken 100% of dull skin with its nourishing and brightening formula.
I loved how this gel cream is super light and feels like a high-end cream. It is not greasy and has a lovely shimmer, like the serum. It may feel a little sticky, but I found that it works better for me if I don't apply much, just a thin layer, so a little goes a long way.
I don't think it made my skin brighter but it does leave it glistening and hydrated.

The Neutrogena Bright Boost Moisturizer claims to protect and awake 100% of dull skin.
I believe every moisturizer should have SPF, this way you can nourish and protect your skin at the same time, so I always go for the ones with it.
This moisturizer is feather-light, not being too oily or dense, perfect for daily use. It has a nice scent that doesn't remind me of sunscreen at all.
I only wish it came on a bigger container because this one won't last since I use it daily and apply it several times a day. Other than that it is perfect.

The Bright Boost Illuminating Serum is formulated with accelerated brightening complex powered by Amino Sugar and Turmeric Extract. It is suitable for all skin tones and promises visible brighter skin.
This serum has a creamy and light consistency and gets easily absorbed by my skin. It feels a little oily but doesn’t irritate my skin and doesn’t interfere with my make up products.
The best thing about it is that it shimmers and is full of sparkles, which made my skin looks brighter. I also love how it makes my skin feel tight and plump.
I definitely recommend this product!

The Bright Boost Resurfacing Micro Polish made my skin reddish after the first two uses, so it may not be ideal for people with sensitive skin. Still, its formula is gentler than most products and didn't dry my skin out or left it feeling raw, even with microbeads.
It can be used from one to three times a week. I opted for using it only twice a week and, after a couple of uses, noticed that my skin is smoother and my pores are smaller.

I received this product one week and a half ago and have been using it twice a day since then and have some thoughts about it:
Smell: I can smell a light and sweet vanilla scent in it. It is pleasant and I can smell it only for a couple of minutes after applying the cream. I notice that it does not interfere with my other products.
Texture: It is thick and rich and seems to be thicker than other facial creams I am used to.
Use: I use it twice a day and only a pearl-sized amount. It spreads smoothly but feels a little grease and sticky on the skin. When applied it immediately starts to tingle and I can feel my skin tighten. It caused some redness during the first 3 days in my T zone but it got better after.
Conclusion: I am sure the cream is working because I can feel it and my skin feels slightly smoother but I need more testing time to be sure of it. I will update this review after a month of use.

I've added this product to my skincare regimen and have been using at mornings and nights for the last 7 days.
The package is beautiful and the dropper works great.
I was unsure about it since it is an oil and I have oily/combination skin but it feels super light on the skin and you don't need much of it as well. The box instructs to use 4-5 drops but I found that 3 drops are enough to apply to my entire face without leaving it with an oily feel.
I can't say if it has improved the appearance of wrinkles but I feel that my skin now is softer and glowing.
