Smells devine and feels fine!
There are likely more effective foot and heel creams out there, but this one is fun, smells great (too strong for those who are sensitive to strong scents, this stuff is potent in the scent department) and has a nice texture. It has a cooling sensation on your skin and absorbs nicely. I like to wear socks after I have applied this lotion. My skin feels refreshed and hydrated after using this, but my heels don't really feel any different. It is a nice treat to use after a long day of hiking and extra nice in the heat of summer thanks to that cooling sensation that it initially gives, but I would not use this for seriously dry heels - the perfume would just irritate them further. It is a fun pamper product, but I cannot say it is very effective.

This stuff smells lovely, it has a nice slippy texture, it carries the Kerastase name and it is bright pink! I should love it, but I dont. It is a corresponding product to my favorite in the Kerastase line - the Reflection serum (my fave of all their serums, not super heavy and delivers MAD shine).
This product however, is lackluster by comparison. It is a standard conditioner. For the price, I was expecting far more than it delivered. I usually love Kerastase products but this one is a letdown. My hair felt nice, smelled good, had decent shine, was easy enough to comb through - but that is true of conditioners that are far cheaper and far easier to use - the tub is silly for use in a shower, pumps or go home! I wont be buying this nor would I recommend it.

With frequent handwashing and use of hand sanitizer, the past year has been harsh on my hands. The tops of my hands developed a bumpy texture that while not easy to see, was easy to feel and it irked me. I switched up my handwash (to Cerave's Hydrating Wash) and started applying this lotion to the tops of my hands before bed. ONE WEEK and my skin had returned to normal, no sign of the bumpy rash remained! This absorbs quickly into the skin and leaves no sticky film, just an obvious bouncy and slightly moist feel to the skin where it has been applied. It does not seem to stain fabrics either, like other SA products can.
I have started to use this on the back of my arms after showers in the hopes it will treat my keratosis pilaris and I have every reason to believe it will.For the effect this lotion had on the backs of my hands, this product is a winner already in my books. Magic stuff!

As much as I love coconut smelling things, my days of wanting to smell like a walking and talking desert have passed, I prefer to use real perfume these days. I do however love to use this mist as a quick pick me up after the gym as a guilty pleasure reward that wont make me sob if I were to forget it in the locker room, like i would with a $100 perfume. This is not serious perfumery, this a drugstore cheapie. The scent lingers on the skin for about two hours before vanishing away, but those two hours are delightful. This is a synthetic warm coconutty/vanilla bomb that reminds me of slathering on Coppertone at beach as a kid - all that is missing is sand in my warm can of pop! -

This a generic version of Vaseline's Coco Butter lotion and I must say, I like this one better. The Vaseline version never properly absorbs into my skin, this dupe however has a slightly lighter (very slight) consistency which means it absorbs faster and I can get dressed quicker after my showers. It leaves your skin moisturized but not sticky. You are left with soft skin every time. I also prefer the scent of this lotion, I swear it is less sickly sweet than the name brand version. Men seem to love the smell too, I have had several complements. I will always have a bottle of this in my home, I currently have two, one it the bathroom and one on my nightstand. -

I started using this as a face cleanser sometime last year. I often need a to remove makeup with a makeup remover first (I like the Clean and Clear foaming one, it is cheap and effective) and then I use this on top.
Over the past few months my hands have been through the wringer, constant washing and hand sanitizer have left their mark. I started using this as a hand soap at home and my hands are much happier as a result. It comes in a huge bottle for a decent price and it saves your skin. No scent, no foamy bubbles (surfactants are drying) just effective cleansing and moisture - I highly recommend trying this if your hands have been suffering from COVID precautions too.

First off, does the snail secretion thing work? I have no idea - but the cream sure does! This is a cheap and effective cream that has no scent and no irritants that has been doing wonders for my newly angry face. I have started using retinol and use this on top and it quickly soothes the redness and burning that the newly added retinol has caused. No film or stickiness is left and it absorbs quickly into the skin. It is a bit thicker than a lotion a bit thinner than a standard cream (Mizon's Snail Repair Perfect Cream for example is much thicker). The jar last ages (have used it for some years now) and can be found quite cheap. This is a staple for me and I will continue to hunt it down so long as it is in production. -
