I was surprised to see a micellar water in a 400mL bottle. This particular Nivea Skin Breathe micellar water is for “normal” skin. I guess everyone might have a different version of “normal”, but for my combination skin, it is great. I put a little bit on a cotton pad at night and wipe it on my face after my face wash routine. This product leaves my face clean and ensures all makeup residue is gone. It doesn’t make my face feel tight but rather moisturized and supple. I’m impressed so far! I’ve been using the product for a few weeks now. As an added bonus, I found the price point for the bottle size provided good value. -

Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer in Medium 1 Custard is my go to concealer for under eyes, redness and blemishes. It matches my skin tone perfectly and a little bit goes a long way for coverage. A bottle lasts me months! Definitely a superior product with a concentrated formula which I appreciate. The formula is highly blendable and easy to apply with the little sponge applicator tip. Love it! -

Received this product as a free sample. I was excited to try it as I usually like Nars products. I find this mascara, while nice and black, looks clumpy after a couple of coats. It’s disappointing - and surprising. When I’m done this tube, I won’t purchase another. -

I had been a loyal wearer of Bare Minerals loose powder foundation for years. At my local Shoppers Drug Mart, they didn’t carry Bare Minerals so I tried out this product by Nude By Nature. Ah-mazing. I bought the W4 Soft Sand colour. It applies so smoothly to my face and doesn’t feel heavy. I feel that it evens out my skin tone and makes it look flawless. The size of the container is generous and I love the way the powder comes out - makes for such easy application to my makeup brush. I’m so happy I purchased this product and the price was absolutely affordable. A definite winner here! -

My goodness, I’ve been washing my face with this product nightly for almost a year. It smells delicious, like oranges. It lasts and lasts! It’s a 200mL bottle, and one pump is all you need for a clean, makeup free face. Because it lasts so long, I find Biore Baking Soda Acne Cleansing Foam excellent value for the money. I would purchase this product again, absolutely! -

Bought this product for my daughter. She said it helps with her acne by drying it out. However, a few weeks after purchasing it, I noticed the towels in her bathroom, her pillow cases, and pyjama tops had bleach stains on them. I asked her if she had been trying to clean things with bleach and she said no. I finally figured out that the benzoyl peroxide in the acne gel is a bleaching agent. Ugh. Beware that if it comes into contact with cotton fabrics, it will ruin the fabrics! For this reason, I wouldn’t buy this product again. Applying the product and letting it dry before allowing it to come into contact with fabric doesn’t seem to help as sweat just reactivates the product moisture. -
Live Clean Vanilla Bean & Coconut Foaming Hand Wash

I was impressed with the size of the hand wash which is 400mL. In comparison, hand washes from other brands are usually 236mL.
I love the scent of the Live Clean Vanilla Bean & Coconut foaming hand wash. It’s not too heavy but it is true to its name and it smells delicious and not perfumey.
I did notice that the hand wash is more watery than other brands - but that could be due to fewer chemical ingredients than what most other soaps contain. I don’t mind - the large sized bottle makes up for it. Live Clean prides itself on eco-friendly products and I think this is a good thing for families. I would definitely purchase this product again!

This product surprised me with its unique scent of roses. It’s a soft light scent so it doesn’t overpower. I don’t know what it is with this product but it tends to make my scalp itch. I’ve alternated it with other shampoos to see if it was something else but every time I switch to using this shampoo I get the same result - itchy scalp. The sulfate free formula and the colour lock protection drew me to this product but I just don’t get the comfort I need after using it. Perhaps it works for others but I find it doesn’t agree with my scalp. -

Ok so this is a hand soap. It does the job and gets my hands clean. It’s the smell I dislike immensely. I bought the product because with a name like Whipped Cocoa Butter and little pictures of vanilla flowers and chocolate curls on the bottle, I thought, perhaps mistakenly, that the soap would have a gentle scent of vanilla and chocolate. Not the case. It smells like cheap floral perfume. I just couldn’t connect the scent with the name of the scent or the images on the bottle. I used the whole bottle because I don’t like to waste products, but I was never so happy to toss the empty bottle in the recycling bin when it was done! I would not purchase this scent again. -
