As each year goes by I've made more conscious decisions too make changes with the products I use on my body. Deodorant is one of them. I've been using natural deodorant now for over 6 years and its something I would never change. Like most conventional deodorants out there they contain high levels of aluminum that block sweat glands and reduce sweat secretion (this by the way is a normal, natural function our bodies need to do) contain many preservatives, and artificial fragrances that are just not healthy for the body.
This deodorant is now my go to natural deodorant. I recieved the Sage + Vetiver that is enriched with Hemp Seed Oil. The scent at first was very unique. It took a few days to get used to it as I'm more accustomed to lavender scented deodorants.
It has more of an earthy/spice smell to it that became more pleasant as the day went on. It applied smoothly although slightly thicker consistency that I'm used too but no greasy residue left behind on my clothes. The ingredients are pure and simple.
It's also vegan and cruelty free which I admire.

This cream is very rich and nourishing too my skin. I noticed immediately the intense calming scent of this product which is my absolute favorite!! When you apply this too your face it smooths on so nicely and you don't need much of the product for it too work.
I do have a huge issue with this cream. There is silicone in the first few ingredients. You can tell it feels like silicone on your face. And the Calendula is at the bottom of the ingredient list which has minimal amount of it. I can't say for sure if this cream is a gimmick because it costs $100.00 a jar for this product. You would think that Calendula would be right at the top of the ingredient chain and unfortunately it isn't. I love the scent and how it feels on my skin but would I buy this product. Probably not.

I really like this sunscreen that I have been using. My skin is very fair and I burn very easily and when I applied this on my face and upper body I noticed that I didn't get a burn while working in my garden this week. I did have too apply it twice because it is only an SPF 30 but it was effective when I did that.
The texture is light, gel, and glides on very smoothly on my skin. I like that I don't need too use a ton of this product for it too actually work. When I applied it on my face my skin didn't look or feel greasy which is a huge bonus for me. The only downside is the added blue color in this product. I don't think its necessary nor is it good for anyones skin. White or clear is just fine, works the same in my opinion. With that said I will be purchasing this again in the future and possibly a higher strength if it comes in one.
I received this product for free from ChickAdvisor! Thanks again girls!! xo

I really enjoyed using this gel lotion this past week. It has a nice light moisturizing feel too it which is what I enjoy in a hand cream. Its non-greasy and absorbs very quicky. The scent is also light and very enjoyable. Its not strong too me and I must say its probably one of my favourite hand gels cream I have used.
This hand gel cream contains hyaluronic acid which helps retain the moisture barrier of your skin and also is anti-aging. I love this feature in this product. It defiantly locks in the moisture on my hands. No dry skin for me this summer!!

I was so excited too receive these on the go mini makeup wipes. They are very convenient on the go wipes that you can easily throw into your purse or carry on bag. The scent is floral, Light and refreshing. The wipes were slightly wet. I do prefer something that is more wet as it is more effective in taking off my makeup. I did notice that I needed too use a cleanser afterwards which defeats the purpose of even using these wipes. Although they are super cute and convenient they are not environmentally friendly as so much waste is involved with having them individually wrapped in plastic. With that said I think I could go without.
I received this product for free too review from Chickadvisor.

The Aveeno Maxglow Infusion drops was a pleasant product that I have been using on my skin. It has a light creamy texture too it, almost like a serum but not quite. I had mixed it in with my day/night creams and I feel by doing this it added a lot more moisture too my skin and helped glide my moisturizer on better. Scent was pleasant and not overpowering either.
The bottle itself is stunning! I really love the package appeal too this product! I always love a cute packaged skin care item and this was sure a win for me.
As for the product as a whole I do feel that my skin feels more hydrated and dewy. I didn't break out or have an reactions on my skin while using this. Great for all skin types as well.

I always love a good skin mask and never had tried a sleep mask before. The Aveeno Max Glow no mess mask had a nice paddle applicator attached too it and was quite pleasant too apply. I did end up having too use my fingers in the end too get around my nose and lip area. I only applied a very thin layer on my skin and let it soak all in. I did notice that my skin did feel slightly oily but when I woke up the product absorbed quite well. No residue or yucky feeling too my skin at all. My skin did feel extremely hydrated and dewy which I really like.
The scent too this product was also pleasant and It was not over powering at all. Contains no parabens which is great as I don't use any products that contain this anymore.
This mask is great for those who like a quick mask and no need too wash off after. I myself like masks that I can wash off or sheet masks as I don't like the feeling of anything heavy on my skin.

This is a fantastic peel off mask for those who need that extra exfoliation that they have been looking for. It comes in a small sized container, I would say good enough for 4 applications, light in consistency, and spreads quite easily on the face. It does have a bit of a sticky feel too it but I wasn't put off by it at all. After leaving it too dry on my face for 20 minutes I slowly peeled it off. I do suggest that you avoid your eye area, lip area or any other sensitive part of your face because it does pull quite a bit. I don't think this would be good for someone how had sensitive or thin skin types.
The next day I noticed after having my makeup on for a couple hours that my skin looked flawless. I had no dead skin sitting on the surface of my skin which made my makeup look so nice all day long. This is what sold me on this product. Only thing that I would change is having it slightly cheaper in retail price as for the size is quite small for only a couple applications.

I’ve been trying out the 3 in 1 Pureté Thermale One Step Cleansing Micellar Solution and I find that my skin feels so clean and refreshed. Micellar water cleanses the skin, removes oils, impurities and soothes the skin. There is no rinsing required!
This is actually my first time using a Micellar solution and I must say it took my makeup off very well and the scent was subtle and refreshing! I used a round cotton pad for application of the product and used circular motions on my skin. I also love that this is a toner and I use this before I put on my moisturizers.
This product is suitable for sensitive skin types and it’s also enriched with Pro-Vitamin B5 for extra hydration.
☑️Non-drying.
☑️Non-oily.
☑️Soap-Free.
☑️Alcohol-Free.
☑️PH-Balanced.
☑️Paraben Free.
With that said this is an excellent product for those who are on the go and need a quick cleaning/toning solution. Great value as well for $19.95.

I love teas and Tazo is a great brand that I have been using for quite some time and they have a wide variety products in store.
The tea has a nice subtle orange taste with a lovely hint of lemongrass and licorice. I don’t taste the licorice which is great because I don’t really like the licorice. I like too add a touch of sweetener and honey with this product as it’s not sweet enough without it.
I purchase this at Supertsore of 7.99 a box and will buy again! I do wish they had more variety of flavours.
