Mary Kay Gel Semi-Matte Lipstick
#gotitfree @ #chickadvisorshowcase For a matte lipstick it is creamy. Applies easily and smoothly. No fragrance and it doesn't taste funny. I got to try Poppy Please a coral color. I'm not a fan of the price, a little high at $21 for me. But I... +
#gotitfree @ #chickadvisorshowcase For a matte lipstick it is creamy. Applies easily and smoothly. No fragrance and it doesn't taste funny. I got to try Poppy Please a coral color. I'm not a fan of the price, a little high at $21 for me. But I prefer gloss. After wearing it for awhile my lips don't feel too dry, I don't feel like I need to lick my lips. -

#gotitfree at #chickadvisorshowcase Texture is creamy and a little heavy for my liking. The fragrance is light. I don't see the brightness on my skin, but you can see the gold shimmer on the fingers I used to apply the product. I don't know if I would use it at night, but perhaps on a cold winter morning when I need a bit more hydration. This product may work better for someone with dry skin, but for my combination skin I will pass. I find it a bit pricey as well.
I received this product to test for free from ChickAdvisor.

#gotitfree at #chickadvisorshowcase. Soft texture no fragrance. Removed my longwearing makeup but it took a bit of rubbing. Eyeliner came off as well, a little bit of work. My face feels clean but no tight. Don't feel like I need to rinse my face. This would be something I would keep in my gym bag for a quick pickup. -

I do like this product, I find it moisturizing, there is no weird after taste and the scent is subtle. My only complaint is that I have to watch how much I put on. Sometimes I find it a little greasy.
During the winter or in drying conditions; like the airplane or while at the beach; the extra moisture was comforting. This was a great thing in my carry on during my trip away.
At home I find that I have to wipe a little bit off my lips with my fingers. A minor inconvenience I guess in the end.

I got to try this from ChickAdvisor by joining the product review club.
The timing of this campaign couldn't have been better. I was going on a trip so I brought it along with me. Glad I did. The airline misplaced my luggage so I only had my carry on for a couple of days. This cream and a few other Nivea products saved the day.
I generally find this cream a little thick for my face. But after being on the plane for 15 hours my face soaked it in. It left my skin soft and not greasy. It was also great for the body as well; especially after being in the pool or the beach. It's been a great product for me this trip. I generally don't do that much swimming at home so I don't know if I would use it on my face. But I would consider using it on my body. I do recommend it for dry
skin though.

I got to try this from ChickAdvisor. I took this with me on my trip to Australia. Good thing I did and I put it in my carry on because my luggage was delayed.
The cloth felt nice and soft on my skin. It had a pleasant fragrance, not too heavy. It took a little effort to remove my long wearing face and eye make up, but the cloth held up. I didn't feel the need to rinse my face after, some of the other cloths I have tried leave a residue.
It was also nice to use it while at the beach, it was a nice pick me up.
I think I will be buying these agsin.

This is my first time using a cleansing lotion. I have been afraid because I worry with my oily/combination skin that it would clog my pores. Well in the end I have been pleasantly surprised. The texture felt light and it left my skin feeling soft and clean. It took a little more product and washing when I was wearing long wearing makeup. I also used it to remove my eye makeup and it was quite effective as well. Again needed a little more and time for water proof eye makeup.
I brought this with me on my trip to Australia. After a long flight and drying sea water and chlorine from the pools; this cleanser has left my skin feeling soft and hydrated. Hopefully this will continue being effective back home.

I got to try this product for free from ChickAdvisor. After my experience with the day cream I was a little concerned. The day cream was too much for my oily skin and I broke out a little. But in the end I was pleasantly surprised. The texture out of the jar was a little thick for my liking but when I applied it, the cream went on smoothly and it did not feel too heavy. I did notice in the morning that my face did look hydrated and a little brighter. For me I would either buy the serum or the night cream, I would not buy both. In combination I did not find that they were too heavy or greasy, but I didn't see any drastic results while using both. I did try them out one at a time to see if I could see a difference but I didn't. -

I got to try this for free from ChickAdvisor. I consider my skin combination but leaning towards oily. This cream unfortunately increased my oiliness. I could not apply it anywhere near my eyes otherwise my eye makeup would smudge and I would get raccoon eyes. I tried using an eye base but that didn't work. If I applied too much of the cream to my face I also noticed my foundation would fade and would not last the day. I found my t-zone would grease up. I also tried using a primer but that didn't really help. If I blotted during the day I would have to use a couple of sheets of blotting paper. I did find the texture of this cream pleasant though. It didn't feel too heavy or greasy which is why I was surprised with my experience. Did I notice any change in my face...not really,,,I did get a few pimples though. This cream could work for some of the ladies, but it was a bust for me. -

I got to try this for free from ChickAdvisor. This serum went on very easily and did not feel heavy. It absorbed very well and my face did not feel greasy. For me I could just stop here and not both with a night cream. When I use this serum I feel like my face is getting some hydration. My face does feel smoother in the morning and some of my lines do look a little better. -
