I have been using natural deodorants for many years now and am always on the hunt for one that I can find with more ease then my current favorite brand and also one that is more travel friendly, since my normal everyday deodorant is in a glass tub. I only have been able to try this for a few days and it hasn't been overly hot so I can't for sure say how this would perform for me on a hot day but in the current conditions I have been able to test it in, it seem to work well and keep the odor down. The only downfall for me was the scent, I am just not the biggest fan of rose as it reminds me a little of my grandmother so for that reason I would not purchase this one again but I may be interested in another scent in the future, plus being in a stick format it is much more travel friendly. -

Personally I found this scent to be a bit to manly for me and thus gave it to my husband but he found that it just did not provide the odor and sweat protection that he needs so I would not purchase this again in the future but would be interested in a more delicate scent. -

This is a 100% vegan mask that is never tested on animals and made in the USA. I did get this in a beauty box so it was quite a small size. This product does say it should; protect against free radical and pollutants, intensely moisturize with the added sweet almond and avocado oils, it is anti-aging with the help of green tea antioxidants, will exfoliate with volcanic ash, minimize pores, reduce fine lines and deep clean, decrease dark circles and brighten. This mask does have a very light herbal scent to it. Personally I did not see any of these results with the 5-6 uses I got out of this sample. I did not hate this mask or love it, it was just ok. Would I purchase this in the future, with all the mask options out there, probably not since there is still so many more to try and there was no ground breaking results in my skin. -

This product is fragrance and paraben free and made with vegetarian proteins. This mask is also made in the USA and not tested on animals. This is supposed to give you a bright soft finish when used twice a week to detox. I personally did not see any really results from this mask, this was a sample size so I did only get 5-6 uses out of it and I am not sure if that is enough to see any lasting results. I didn’t mind this mask, it was a nice mud like mask and did have a bit of a cooling sensation when first applied. It does have a light cucumber scent with I also didn’t mind. Overall this is probably something I won’t purchase in the future just because there are so many other options out there that claim to do the same thing that I would like to try first. -

This mask is suppose to help brighten dull skin and dark spots, I personally did not see any results from this mask, but that could also be that it was quite a small sample size and brighten products may take more than 4 uses to see any really results. This has a very fruity scent it is which is just an ok scent to me, unlike the supermud which I adore the scent of. Because of the lack of am really results or even the feeling that it may be doing something I don’t know if this is something I would purchase in the future at the price is currently is. -
GLAMGLOW SUPERMUD® Instant Clearing Treatment Mask

I very much enjoyed using this mask, I felt a nice cooling and tingling sensation when it was applied which made me feel like it was cleaning out my pores. I personally don’t have a huge issue with acne so I can’t say I say lots of results but this could also be that the Sample size I had only allow for 4 full face masks. I did enjoy the black licorice scent which may not be for everyone but black licorice candies are favourite flavour. I would definite try this again in the future if I don’t find a cheaper alternative but would most likely us it as a spot treatment along with a hydrating mask for the drier areas of my face. -

This is an oil free, silicon based primer that is suppose to smooth skin and blur imperfections. I do enjoy using this primer and feel it does smooth my skin and help to reduce my fine lines and pores. Sometime I even use it when I am not applying any foundation as I feel it just give my skin a nice look on its own. I also feel that it does help my foundation to glide on a little more seamless. I am glad that I have so many samples of this so I don’t have to buy anymore currently but I would consider purchasing the fully size when I have used up the many primers I currently own. -

This is made it Italy from truffle, calendula, rose and rosemary extracts and it claims this will help to clean pores, also the added witch hazel and sage are used as an antiseptic and to removed dead skin cells thus preventing breakouts. This was a sample size of 30 ml that I received in a beauty box and I always find it hard to jug skin care on such small samples since you really need a good month or so of use for me to see any results if they are going to happen. With the small amount of times I used this, maybe 2 weeks I did not see any bit improvements in my skin. I did like the slight floral herbal scent but am not sure I would purchase the full size; I will have to see what other serums are out there maybe with more anti-ageing properties than this seems to have. -

I did only have a sample size so I don’t know if this would be different in the full size. This item has a natural bristle very large brush head; it takes up the whole handle of this mascara. The head being so large I found made applying this mascara a little more difficult. I did find I would always seem to get some on my lid not matter how careful I was. I also found the formula to be very fry and clumpy some the time it was opened, again I don’t know if this is because it was a sample and maybe was a bit older when I got it but the formula did not wow me. I used it for 3 months and finally had to call it quits, it was just too much of a pain to try and get the clumps off with that huge brush head, I personally would not purchase this when there are so many other options I have still to try out there. -

This item claims to have 10 benefits – Repairs dry and damaged hair. Shine and Frizz control. Heat protector. Silkiness and smoothness. Hair colour protector with UVA and UVE filters. Easier brushing and ironing. Detangling. Long lasting hair style. Split ends prevention. And adds volume and body. – Other than a bit of detangling I did not really see any other benefits of this product. I don’t know if this is because it was a sample size of only 9 ml but with the result I saw I would not go out of my way to purchase this. I also did find that the spray clogged since this is more of a creamy like product so I had to dump it into my hands and rub it in instead of using the intended dispenser. I did love the lotus and jasmine scent, though it may be a bit strong for someone who is sensitive to scents. -
