So I got to try this product free through Chickadvisors Product Review Club, and so far I've been quite impressed! This is a night cream, so its definitely too heavy to wear during the day. It's a pale pink cream with a very pretty scent. It absorbs pretty quickly without leaving a sticky, greasy feeling like a lot of night creams. I do have pretty oily skin, so when I wake up in the morning, after using Skin Sleep, my skin is fairly oily. After washing it, my skin is SO soft, and feels very fresh, smooth and plump. I've been using it for a couple weeks now, and I definitely do see a difference in the feel of my skin, and how smoothly my makeup goes on. It's a bit pricey, at around $50 a jar, but as far as night creams go, this is definitely the best one I've used so far. I would recommend this for sure. -

I was super excited at the opportunity to try this cleanser for free through Chickadvisor, as I have very oily, acne prone skin. I also have mild rosacea, which means my skin is pretty sensitive too!
The cleanser itself is very creamy, and a little bit goes a long way. My skin felt very fresh and clean after using it. I didn't experience any dryness, flakiness or tightness that you usually see with a lot of medicated acne cleansers. I used this once a day, as per the instructions, because of my fair, sensitive skin. I eventually worked up to using it morning and night once I realized it wasn't irritating my skin. All of the acne I had on my face quickly dried up and healed. In the last two weeks I've only had maybe one or two new ones pop up, instead of 2 a day! I chalk that up to my skin purging. I've also noticed a dramatic decrease in blackheads on my nose, as well as a decrease in oiliness, which is great! I also get the occasional pimple or two on my chest and shoulders, and this cleanser has cleared that right up as well.
I would absolutely purchase this after I'm finished with this bottle. I checked out the website and the price is very cheap for such a large bottle. I highly recommend!

I bought a massive pump bottle of this shampoo for $7, and absolutely love it! I read such awful things about the scent of this shampoo, but ended up being pleasantly surprised! Its a nice light smell that lasts until you wash your hair again. My hair is very long and gets extremely knotted, and this shampoo manages to get them all out with the first wash. That was the first thing that impressed me. My hair is definitely a lot softer and smoother after using this. With my long hair, I go through tiny bottles of shampoo on a biweekly basis, so I will definitely continue to buy this. -
Rimmel London Natural Bronzer
This is the first bronzer I ever used, yeeears and years ago. It's super inexpensive and works great! High color payout. It isn't orangey or fake looking. Just a nice natural bronzer with a hint of shimmer. Highly recommend!

Organix Moroccan Argan Oil Shampoo
I've tried many shampoos in the Organix line and this one is one of my favorites. It's got kind of a generic 'nice' shampoo smell, nothing special. But it really does smooth and soften my hair! I'll definitely be buying this one again.

I love BBW soaps, but the foaming has got to be my favorite. They come in an amaaaazing array of scents, and they don't dry your hands out! In fact, many of them have moisturizing things added to them. The foaming one lasts for ages, as you only use a very small amount of soap each time you wash your hands. They're cheap too! -
Advil Liqui-Gels
I much prefer the liquid gels to the hard, solid pills. I find these work a lot faster and better

Since our city decided to wreck our water by chlorinating it, water filters have been a godsend. Britas are pretty pricey though for the quality you get. One thing I don't like is how LONG it takes to fill up. You have to stand there and wait for it to go through the filter before adding more water. Ours also started to leak by the handle after a month or two, hence the 2 stars for quality. The water tastes great, but unfortunately the pitcher itself isn't awesome. There are lots of other brands out there now that I would sooner buy over a Brita replacement. -
