Thanks to Butterly, I was given the opportunity to try Lancôme’s Rénergie H.C.F. Triple Serum, in exchange for an honest review about this product.
The serum contains three active ingredients which you dispense by the pump into your palm to mix before applying to your face. Two pumps are recommended, but I always used three. The scent is very rose-like. My skin felt tingly with the first few applications.
The product is smooth and silky and quickly absorbs into the skin. It left my skin hydrated and glowy.
It is intended that you follow the application with a moisturizer.
After only two weeks of use, it is rather impossible to give a verdict on the effectiveness of this serum. I have not yet seen any improvement in lines, wrinkles, or dark spots, or change in level of firmness. Perhaps with continued use? #lancomehcftripleserum

Colgate Total Clean advertises that it is for 'whole mouth health'. Somehow, though, this promise just fell short for me. I would presume that it reduces bacteria in the mouth, as indicated; however, my teeth and whole mouth in general just weren't particularly 'wowed' by this toothpaste and I didn't feel like it got my teeth as clean as some other toothpastes I have tried. I also didn't care for the flavor and would prefer a stronger mint for fresher breath. -

I was excited to be selected to try this new plant-based product from Becel. Straight from the fridge, it has a softer texture than butter and spreads smoothly and easily, even on bread. I wanted to see how it would perform with baking and my biscuits turned out very well! But my favorite use for the Becel Plant-Based Brick is melted on popcorn -- very butter-like! What I don't like about this product is that it's main ingredient is modified palm oil. Also, the price is comparable to butter, so unless you are specifically looking for a butter substitute, I would go for the real deal. -

I was so excited to have the opportunity to try the Delights Vanilla Cupcake. Breyers states that this dessert is made with cupcake batter -- yum -- and at only 80 calories per serving, cake and ice cream? ... yay!!! But my excitement was short-lived. The taste and texture of the frozen dessert just wasn't particularly pleasant -- kind of an icy, watery condensed milk type of consistency with vanilla flavoring and chewy sprinkles that did not add anything to the experience. Cupcake batter? Really? Sure didn't seem that way to me. And while I was treated to this container, I did note that this frozen dessert comes with a high price tag. Pass! -
Tazo Wild Sweet Orange Herbal Tea
This tea smells so good and has a naturally somewhat sweet taste. The orange is the predominant flavor and is very soothing and delicious. Great for relaxation since it does not contain caffeine.

Pantene Airspray is the first hairspray I have used that is free of alcohol. The good news is, it won't dry your hair. So if your hair is already dry or damaged, you may wish to consider this product. What I liked about it is that it doesn't have any strong scent, like many other sprays leave lingering on your hair for hours. What I did not like is that it sprays on very wet (just takes a minute to dry, though) and it provides only a very gentle hold. This 'airspray' might be best for someone with thick, dry hair who is looking for light, brushable hold. -

I was really excited to try this new foundation from L'oreal. It promises to hydrate, go on smooth and give an all-day, glowy finish. Because my skin is not overly-dry and I had read that this makeup has a rather slick application, I decided not to use a moisturizer prior to applying the foundation. Perhaps that was my mistake. I found that the makeup dried so quickly upon applying that it was difficult to smooth it out evenly over my skin. And the coverage I got was actually quite matte -- not anywhere near glowy at all. I almost wondered if L'oreal made a packaging error and I somehow got the Pro Matte foundation instead of the Pro Glow! -

An effective natural detergent!
Tide purclean is free of dyes and phosphates so I actually feel good about using it. It got my laundry just as clean as my regular detergent does and left a nice, light (not overpowering) scent on my linens. It is a bit more expensive than non-natural products, but I certainly would be inclined to buy it again if it is on special at a reasonable price.

I have tried other deodorant-type products, but I always come back to my favorite, Degree. The Fresh Energy stick antiperspirant smells great and lasts all day. I have not found it to be irritating to the underarms and my skin is fairly sensitive. I usually wait a couple minutes after applying before getting dressed just to ensure that I don't transfer any residue onto my top (hate when that happens!) This product is regularly approximately $4.00, but is often on special for around $3.00, which is a good value. I recommend! -
