I received this product free of charge from Chick Advisor as part of a promotional testing opportunity. I have been using this product for the past two weeks in combination with the Daily Moisture Shampoo. After just the first use I instantly noticed that my hair was softer, shinier and sleeker and it has continued to improve with further use! This product claims to instantly smooth visible signs of dryness while nourishing without weighing down hair causing the hair to get soft smooth and beautiful with every use. They don't lie folks. This stuff is goooooood. -

I have been using this serum in combination with the Idealia Skin Sleep for the past two weeks. The serum itself is very lightweight but also manages to feel very nourishing and refreshing. As with the night cream it is a bit pricey but it feels so very worth it when you're putting it on. It has such a lovely scent and such a wonderful feeling that it's like a spa treatment just putting it on. I've noticed my skin in smoother and brighter since I began using these products and I would very much love to work them into my beauty budget in the future. So worth it! -

I really enjoy night creams. It encourages me to wash my face before bed instead of being lazy and keeping my makeup on! The Vichy Idealia Skin Sleep feels amazing on my skin and it has the most lovely scent. I always feel instantly refreshed and... +
I really enjoy night creams. It encourages me to wash my face before bed instead of being lazy and keeping my makeup on! The Vichy Idealia Skin Sleep feels amazing on my skin and it has the most lovely scent. I always feel instantly refreshed and relaxed when I put it on. It IS a bit pricey but you know what? When you put it on it FEELS like it should cost a bit. Over the last weeks of use I have noticed that my skin feels softer and looks a bit brighter. I will seriously consider working this into my budget in the future! -

I have never been so disappointed in a waxing product. At first glance I was very excited. I've tried hard waxes before and I have loved them. This product promised to be easy to use, less uncomfortable than other methods and very effective. Upon removing the product from the packaging and reading the instructions I had to agree with the first claim. Seemed easy enough. I placed the tub of wax in my microwave for the appropriate amount of time and upon removing it the wax was still hard. Okay... first problem. The instructions recommended warming the wax at 10 second intervals, which was a pain in the butt. Took an extra minute of warming to even soften. But okay the wax is now a wonderful warm temperature and hey it smells great too! I sat down to try it out. Legs seemed the most straightforward test area so on it went, nice and smooth and very soothing and warm. I let it sit until it dried and was no longer sticking to my skin. One of the claims of this product was that t will stick to the hairs and NOT the skin which is great! And it was part right! It didn't stick to my skin at all! Unfortunately it didn't stick to the hairs either. I followed all of the prep instructions. I didn't have any lotion or moisture on my legs, I hadn't showered that day and my hair was well past the minimum 2mm required for effective removal. I tried this several times on different areas of my leg, even stopping to reheat the product and start over. I may have removed 10 hairs in total. Incredibly disappointing Will not be purchasing or recommending.. -

I received this product free of charge to test out and I'm so glad I did! I had been wondering about dry shampoos for a while but never had the get up and go to go out and pick one up. Not gonna lie, I've tried the baking soda trick more than once with... interesting results... mostly that it made my hair look grey-ish which was... unflattering. The Batiste dry shampoo has a pleasant smell and i found that it worked wonders. I generally wash my hair every three days and for the most part I don't have problems with oil, except for my bangs. Most likely because they're laying on my forehead all day long. By the third day I do notice some oil buildup, especially at my roots. A couple spritzes of the Batiste dry shampoo and it was no longer noticeable. I also found that it lasts for basically the whole day with no need for touchups!
Such a great find I'm so glad I had the opportunity to test it out! Will definitely purchase in the future!

My favourite mascara of all time. There are three types of mascara, those that promise to lengthen, those that promise to volumise and those that promise to prevent clumps. It's not uncommon for a mascara to claim to do these things but usually they like to focus on one or two of these characteristics and they might even DO what they claim... but I tell you this mascara does it all. It makes my lashes look long and thick and on top of all of this it doesn't clump! It is the perfect mascara. PERFECT. -

The first time I bought this blush I absolutely loved it. The color was perfect and incredibly blendable, the product was soft and went on nicely and there was the nicest scent when you put it on that honestly DID make me feel a little warm rush of happy every time I put it on. It even lasted a long time! But eventually I ran out and despite the high price I was determined to splurge and get it again, but this time the product seemed to be missing that lovely scent that made it just that special... Not sure if I just got a bad batch or if the rumination had changed since my last purchase (the packaging definitely had). Still a great product but I really miss that scent! -

Am I terrible at making cat eyes with my eye liner? Yes. Do I still try over and over and over again? Yes of course. Which is why this product is absolutely freaking amazing. No matter how many time I make my line too thick or too thin or too high or too low (or all of these things at once... somehow...) I can use this handy dandy pen to start over. You have a lot of control over where you put the tip so even if you just want to make a line a bit slimmer you can if you're VERY careful. I love this pen and it's so cheap! Great buy! -
COVERGIRL LashBlast Volume Mascara
I can't say anything bad about this mascara but I can't say anything amazing about it either... Just an average mascara, but it IS GOOD! Like I said nothing wrong with it at all I've just used much better mascaras!

CoverGirl Outlast Stay Brilliant Glosstinis
These polishes are fantastic! They go on so smooth, dry at a decent rate and the colors are gorgeous. I absolutely love them. I'm not very good at painting my nails myself but the applicator for this polish makes it easy. Great product!
