I’ve heard so many amazing things about this product so I decided to give it a try.
The first thing I noticed was the scent and it was alright at first if you get a quick whiff of it (hints of almond and pistachio with a mix of B&BW;vanilla bean noel IMO), but after a while the scent became a little sickening and I felt nauseous. I tried to wash it off but it’s so heavily fragranced that the smell just lingers. If you’re into scents and fragrances, especially those that are quite strong you’ll definitely love this, but for me personally, it’s not my cup of tea.
The texture of the cream is really nice though, its a whipped cream texture, thick and rich which glides on like butter. As for the benefit of tightening skin I haven’t noticed results, but to be fair I’ve only used it a couple times only as I’ve been put off by the scent.

Although it is the artificial taste of strawberries, it’s super creamy and not too sweet which I really like and the cookie sticks are always so crunchy and buttery!

I got a sample of this from Sephora and really liked it that I ended up purchasing the product.
Many products often claim they help with pigmentation, but they don't really work or they end up breaking your bank, but after several use of this product I've noticed my acne scars lighten and I am so thankful for this product! I've even gotten my mom into it, and she really loves it as well!
It smells amazing, like an orange creamsicle (which I love), but if you're not a fan of scents, it may be too strong for you. The texture is quite nice, not really a whipped cream, but very close to that consistency. It doesn't leave my skin feeling sticky after, which I really like.
Not gonna lie, it is quite pricey for a moisturizer, especially if you're a student on a budget, but it really does tackle a skin concern of mine which is dark spots and pigmentation, so I think it's definitely worth it!

I've seen many influencers and youtubers rave about this and I decided to jump on the bandwagon and I was so happy I did.
The texture is a thicker type of oil (there is a more watery version of this oil that comes in a spray bottle as well if you like something lighter) which I feel is very nourishing and moisturizing for my hair.
It makes my hair feel so soft after using it, and a little bit goes a long way. I mainly apply this from the middle of my hair down to the ends, but never on the roots (as if I do, I feel it does tend to make my hair a little too greasy over time).
The scent is very fresh and nice and does last a while, I've had many friends compliment me about my hair smelling nice and it's all thanks to this product.

If you have sensitive teeth, this is it!
Often many times whitening toothpastes can weaken the enamel and cause even more sensitivity in your teeth, but I've had great results with this toothpaste and have been using it for years!
It definitely does help to whiten your teeth over time, but not to the point of getting it professionally whiten.
One downside to this toothpaste that I've noticed is that if you use too much, it does cause a bit of redness around the lips, but that goes away in around 5 minutes.

I love everything K-Beauty and this has always been one of my favourites and staples in my makeup stash.
With one layer I would say it's medium coverage, but definitely buildable, however it can get cakey if you apply too much. The formula is not matte, but rather gives you that glowy/dewy look, and lasts around 4 hours before you need to touchup again. It really brightens and evens the complexion, and I love how there's added SPF in it too!
I would say it's reasonably priced as you get a refill pact as well.
It is lightly scented, so if you're sensitive to smells, you may not like this.
It's your average size BB cushion compact I would say, convenient to throw into your purse and great for touch ups on the go.
