Yves Rocher So Elixir

Everyone's body chemistry is different and perfumes are very subjective - and I'm sure a lot of women love this perfume. That said, this perfume was a 'miss' for me. It's a warm scent, and normally I would love some of the notes (patchouli, musky, incense type scents) but this particular combination is overwhelming to me and not one I love. I got one of the tiny travel size bottles to give it a try and I'm glad I went that route instead of buying the full sized. -
Yves Rocher Vanille Noire Eau de Parfum
This is a musky kind of vanilla and I love it. It lasts well and a little goes a long way. I really like that you can buy mini bottles of this perfume as well.

Yves Rocher's shower gels have been some of my favourites for several years. This watermelon one is possibly my favourite. I really like the scent, I just wish it lingered - by the time I'm out of the shower the fragrance is gone. Even so, these gels are good, and they're gentle on the skin. -

I enjoyed using this mask and I did find it fairly effective short term. It's non irritating and the moisturizer dries in fairly well but does leave a slightly tacky residue on the skin. The packet says there's no need to rinse but I think in the future I might pat off some of the moisturizer, it is a lot of product to have left on your face (at least for me). For the cost I wouldn't be making it a part of any skincare routine. However it is nice for a bit of pampering once in a while. I do have a few super dry spots on my face at the moment (winter time) and this mask did alleviate that for a few days. -
Stash Cinnamon Apple Chamomile Herbal Tea
This is a really soothing herbal tea, it's nice to relax with. I found the chamomile flavours blended well with the apple and cinnamon. It's different, but it's quite good. A little bit tart. I like mine with sugar.

The first time I tried Gimme Brow I really wasn't impressed. The second time, I played around with it to see what it was actually doing and realized I was just expecting too much from it. It does add some fullness to eyebrows but it can only do so much. Once I got more familiar with it, I did like the results I got with it, but I'm not sure if I really feel the need to buy it again. If your eyebrows are really light, though, this might be great for you. -
Stash Chocolate Hazelnut Tea
This 'dessert tea' was pretty good for the price. I would've liked it if I could've gotten a stronger flavour out of it, one teabag seems best suited to 8oz of water or less. I personally didn't enjoy it with milk (I tried it based on the suggestion... +
This 'dessert tea' was pretty good for the price. I would've liked it if I could've gotten a stronger flavour out of it, one teabag seems best suited to 8oz of water or less. I personally didn't enjoy it with milk (I tried it based on the suggestion on the box) and I did like it with a little added sugar. It took having a few cups of it for it to grow on me but it did. -
Maybelline New York Lash Sensational Mascara

I liked how my lashes looked immediately after applying this mascara, but I found I had to reapply it several times a day. Also, it irritated my eyes - I think there might be an ingredient in the formula that I'm sensitive to but I haven't pinpointed that ingredient yet. I won't be buying this again for myself. -

This is a rooibos tea and as the name suggests it tastes like a fruit punch. Considering the ingredients, I thought I'd enjoy it more than I did. It did taste like a fruit punch with a little hint of spices, but the flavour tasted pretty artificial, which is disappointing considering how many of the ingredients are natural. I wouldn't say it was awful, it just didn't meet my expectations. -

This is a rooibos (caffiene free) tea. It smells and tastes nearly exactly like carrot cake and is VERY sweet. It even contains some whipped cream amongst the ingredients. Add sweetener with caution. I really do recommend this one if you enjoy... +
