I liked that this Aveeno body scrub has a light lavender scent that isn't overwhelming, it leaves a mild scent on my skin after use which is just the right amount of relaxing scent that I need. However, I found the body scrub too gentle for my need. It has a weak effectiveness comparable to a face scrub than a regular body scrub, so I didn't feel it was enough to remove dead skin cells from my body. Overall it's still a good product to use, I liked the scent and will continue to use it as a body wash. -

Knowing that the acid ingredients might give my mildly sensitive skin a reaction, I took a slower approach than the instruction recommended (instead of day and night, I only used it at night for the first week). I'm happy to say that worked progressively and my skin eventually adapted to it with just mild redness during the first few days! (The serum bottle has 3 separated tubes inside and you need to blend the 3 ingredients together after pumping them out in one shot from the pump opening.) Other than the expected redness due to the sudden introduction to all these acids, my skin felt full and hydrated. I'm still new to using anti-aging skin care, so this triple serum was one of the first few that I tried. So far I'm loving it as I notice the dark spots on my cheeks are fading, my overall skin looks less dull, and best of all - it worked very well with my mildly sensitive skin! The only reason why I left 1 star out is that the package does not give you enough information on how to use this serum. Given that it has some great, but fairly new and unique ingredients in the product. I'd love to get direct recommendation on how to use it and what to expect when using a new skin care. -

This is a very new dry shampoo that works differently than my usual on-the-go dry shampoo! You are supposed to use it before bed and wait for the result when you wake up in the morning!
It worked pretty well for my long fine hair overnight. I used a few spray onto my scalp before bed on the night that I was supposed to wash my hair. My hair was less oily when I woke up, it felt light and still good for the day. So I went out and extended my hair wash day for a day!
Overall it worked pretty well, instead of working instantly but making my hair powdery, this overnight dry shampoo felt less noticeable to the touch. The only thing I didn't like was the strong scent, I prefer milder scent from an overnight shampoo that I have to wear during my sleep.

The gel texture works great with my new braces. I had a hard time cleaning my teeth ever since I had my adult braces on, and this toothpaste by far gave me the best result.
It foams and reaches within my teeth and gum easily. I can feel the freshness after use and it doesn't leave any aftertaste. Moreover I also notice the whitening effect after using it for a week. As a tea lover with braces, there are darkened spots around the braces clips on my teeth no matter how well I used to brush with my regular toothpaste. After using this gel texture one, I noticed my teeth are beginning to look less stained now.

I offered it to my boyfriend to try and he likes it pretty well. He did say that he prefers the other charcoal scent more, as this one smells a little "too good" for his taste. I think it's just fine, suitable for both gender to use and the scent is not too overwhelming. It's long lasting and washable easily with detergent (doesn't leave white marks on clothes). Very happy with Schmidt's deodorants! -

I like the deodorant is gentle to my sensitive skin, it stays on well and doesn't irritate my skin at all. Application is smooth, as long as you follow the instruction on the bottle that you need to warm it a little by putting it on your skin for a few seconds. Overall I love the light scent and effectiveness of this deodorant! -
BAND-AID® Brand Adhesive Bandages Hydro Seal™ Advanced Healing, 10 count

I used one on my finger after a bad paper cut, and surly it fits and stays better than my other "regular" bandaid! I found this bandaid seals better than the cloth one, and it's more breathable for my skin. Since I was still moving my hands and fingers as usual, I could tell a big difference in terms of the adhesiveness and flexibility. Because of the better coverage and protection this bandaid offered, my wound did heal faster than usual! It was an interesting experiment for myself doing this review activity! -

I have to say that i much prefer this infused charcoal toothpaste than my previous charcoal powder experience when it comes to teeth whitening charcoal. It's no mess and no additional steps, yet works exactly the same! The taste is refreshing, nothing too weird and just the color is a bit darker than usual toothpaste. Highly recommended for anyone that wants to try charcoal teeth cleaning! -

I have been using this for a week, and I am starting to see the effectiveness of this toothpaste. I feel that my teeth are stronger as I bite, and also look whitened especially at the front. I would have given it a 5 stars review if the taste wasn't so different than what I expected for a toothpaste. Not that it's bad tasting, just not sweetened or fresh mint tasting. It took me a while to get used to the taste, and I would consider getting it again! -
Schmidt's Charcoal + Magnesium Natural Deodorant
We were very curious about how charcoal + magnesium would smell, and it turned out pretty refreshing and cool! My bf usually is very picky about his personal care items, so I didn't think he'd like it so much that he gave it a 5 stars comment!... +
We were very curious about how charcoal + magnesium would smell, and it turned out pretty refreshing and cool! My bf usually is very picky about his personal care items, so I didn't think he'd like it so much that he gave it a 5 stars comment! Overall it's a great deodorant - pleasant smell and goes well on sensitive skin. For guys that don't normally shave their underarm hair, make sure you follow the instruction on the bottle to slightly warm the deodorant with body heat for easy application. I'd say you only need to use it once for a casual regular day, twice if you are doing heavy sporting activity. -
