The product does everything it claims to. It is the consistency of water and effectively removes make-up (non waterproof at least - I don't usually use waterproof make-up) without leaving any kind of residue or irritating the skin around my eyes. It leaves my face feeling fresh with no sense of dryness or tightness. I didn't notice much of an effect regarding anti-redness, but this isn't a significant concern for me. I like the simple sophisticated packing, which is what I expect from La Roche-Posay. The bottle opening is nothing fancy or high-tech, but you can still control how much product is dispensed by squeezing the bottle. $20 for a 400ml bottle is reasonable because it is effective, but still a bit pricy considering how quickly you can use the product if you dispense it onto a cotton pad. There are cheaper micellar water products that I would also consider re-purchasing. -

I am a big fan of the classic Nivea scent and moisturizing capability of their products and these wipes lived up to that. They are easy to use and the packaging is compact enough for on-the-go convenience. However, I do not think it is worth it to pay over $1 for each wipe - at that price, I would probably only use these in emergency situations when I need to clean my face but cannot have face wash, a cloth and moisturizer with me as well. -

I really enjoyed the light refreshing scent of this conditioner. After using it, my hair looked shiny without feeling like it was coated in product, however I did not notice a significant difference in how soft or smooth my hair felt compared to when I have used other conditioners. -
Dove Nutritive Solutions Coconut & Hydration Shampoo
I really enjoyed the light refreshing scent of this shampoo. It lathered well and made my hair and scalp feel clean. I like that the packaging is not too flashy and that the product is easy to dispense.

This is a great lip balm that goes on smooth without feeling too waxy or sticky. It doesn't absorb and moisturize quite as well as the Nivea creme but it is still effective and comfortable to wear. The packaging is good and there is a lot of product inside. I enjoyed using this product but I prefer tinted lip balms since my lips are often too dry for most lipsticks. -
NIVEA Protect & Care Anti-perspirant/Deodorant

I didn't notice anything bad when wearing this product, so that must mean it's pretty good! I like the neutral fragrance and the minimalist packaging. Though it is a white solid, I didn't notice that this product left behind any visible residue on my skin or clothes. It was comfortable to wear and my skin didn't get dry or irritated. I have been trying aerosol anti-perspirants lately, but this product made a good case for solid formulas. -

This Nivea product effectively cleaned my face and gently removed my eye make up with minimal rubbing required. I also liked the subtle but classic Nivea fragrance. The packaging wasn't my favourite since I found it kind of awkward to dispense the product - I kept having to wipe excess product off the flat surface. Also, when rinsing the product off my face, it felt like there was an oily residue left behind, but perhaps this was a good thing because my skin did not feel uncomfortably dry as it does after using some other cleansers. The non-lathering texture of the product did not work with my Clarisonic face brush, which was quite disappointing. -

This BB cream works wonders for my dry/normal skin during the winter months. I have pale/ivory skin tone and the light sheer tint colour blends in seamlessly without leaving any streaks behind. The colour looks a bit dark when it comes out of the tube, but I was amazed by how well it matched my skin tone. The texture of the product is light but still moisturizing, leaving my skin looking fresh and not flaky throughout the day. I really like that it evens my skin tone (with the help of concealer for darker spots) without looking cakey or dimensionless like most foundations. -

I rediscovered this product when faced with the strange but necessary task of cleaning my cell phone cases. The magic eraser is effective at removing stains without removing colour from the designs on my rubber phone cases. It is important to keep these surfaces clean since our hands are on our phones all the time. The only down side about the eraser is that it deteriorates within a few uses so it's best to open one of these when you're ready for a full day of bathroom/phone case/kitchen cleaning. -
