I used to love this mascara during my college days. You don't need to splurge on a high end mascara to get results in my honest opinion. Drugstore mascaras can achieve just as much volume than its high end competitors and this one is no exception. I have long lashes so all I'm asking is to add volume in them and this mascara does the job. Highly recommending this for its price and quality for people who needs a budget mascara. -

If you're a fan of gummies and you like maple flavor as well, this gummy is definitely calling your name!! They might be pricier but they are a Montreal based company. Not only they are vegan friendly, there is no artificial coloring and flavors in their gummies. I would totally try other gummy flavors from them so I can support their business. Gotta support local busineses!! Try one of their gummies, you will not regret it =) -

If you like the traditional Japanese Sakura green tea, this is not for you. There is a small hint of cherry when you first brew it but as it cools down, the cherry taste is more noticeable. I personally enjoy this tea very much as I am always a fan of green tea. Compare to the traditional Sakura green tea, I would say this product is sweeter because it's less salty. Cherry blossoms are mixed with salt in order to preserve its flower that is why it is typically salty. I do recommend this for anyone who likes cherry/green tea =) -

I love the original and the lavender scented hand creams from L'Occitane but I decided to try this because I'm a huge fan of cherry blossoms. So instinctively I tried this hand cream, hoping it will fulfill my love for this beautiful flower. When I tried this in the store, the scent was not too much at the moment so I bought this. But as soon as I used it every night before bedtime, I felt the scent was a bit overwhelming. I'm not someone who hates scents, but I feel like this cherry blossom scent is a bit too much. However, with the scent aside, it does what hand creams are supposed to do: hydrating your hands. In the future, I would definitely try all the new scents before making a purchase. -

NIVEA 3-in-1 Micellar Water removed my makeup with ease after a long day out. I have tried micellar water from low and mid-end brands and honestly, I never realized the difference between each other. As a makeup user, my only concern is that my makeup is mostly removed without drying my skin before I move on to my double cleansing step from my skincare routine such as most of my foundation, eyeliner and lipstick. So far, this NIVEA 3-in-1 Micellar Water does what I'm looking for from a makeup remover product so I would definitely recommend this to other light makeup users. I don't wear a lot of makeup because I like the no makeup makeup look so I would not know for heavy makeup users.
I received this from ChickAdvisor for review purposes and I was not paid to write this review.

NIVEA 2-in-1 Moisturizing Primer for Normal Skin made my skin ready for makeup like a fresh hydrated canvas. I received this product from ChickAdvisor for free. I tried it with and without moisturizer beforehand and honestly, I believe you can skip moisturizer if you don't have dry or sensitive skin. Both ways kept my skin hydrated and well prepared for my makeup application, so I believe this product really does what it claims. The cream is soft and very easy to blend into the skin. I would give this an extra star if this moisturizing primer has SPF in it because then I would be able to skip sunscreen as well.
If you are tired of using NIVEA men's after shave balm as a primer, I highly recommend trying this moisturizing primer as an alternative. My guess is that NIVEA realized many women used their men product as a primer so they innovated this product to the market to suit better our needs. If my assumption is right, thank you NIVEA for listening to your customers' needs and making this product available to the masses.

I know this is a male oriented product but I still love this lipbalm! I have been looking for an alternative to Fresh lipbalms (because they are not wallet friendly). I tried this and I absolutely love it. Mint is my current favorite and I'm almost done this set! I'm looking forward to try their Black Tea flavor in the very near future! It has SPF as well! -

Best lipbalm for men and women from the drugstore market. One star down because no SPF in it but maybe adding SPF will mess up with its formulation. Anyways, my boyfriend loves this lipbalm and I have a hard time sharing this with him so I had to get him a few for his own personal use. -
Sonia Kashuk Neutral Neutral Palette 2

I decided to get this palette because I know I only like neutrals vs fancy colors. I think for its price point it's pretty good. Overall, it's pigmented but not so much for some shades. I still like it because it is my first eyeshadow palette and I'm still experimenting colors. I highly recommend for people who don't want to splurge on branded palettes but just want to test the waters out first in terms of eyeshadows. -

I know this is just a mist but I use it as a toner actually since I can't get a hold of my favorite rose toner from Korea anymore. This is a good replacement to it. I already am on my second bottle! Highly recommend as a toner or as a mist to refresh your face during the day. -
