This is a good moisturizer. It does what it claims: it absorbs quickly into your skin, and doesn't leave your skin with that gross, greasy residue like some other moisturizers do. While this product says it's great for face, body, and hands, I mainly used it on my arms and legs. I found that it was easy to apply, not messy, and effective. Although it's not going to be my "holy grail" moisturizer since I did have to keep reapplying it periodically to feel the results, it's pretty good. I was really impressed by how much product was in this container; it seems like it'll last forever! The price is really decent as well. -

This is a great product! Although I'm new to miscellar water products, this product felt like a great introduction. It's very easy to use, convenient, and makes my skin feel clean; it adequately removes most makeup from my face, meaning that I don't always feel the need to use another product after cleansing my skin with this. I also really liked how this product didn't make my skin feel tense or dry afterwards, like with other cleansers! The price point and amount of product you get is great; I've barely made a dent in the bottle after using it regularly for a couple of weeks now. The only drawback I found was that it's not always the most effective with some of my more peskier eye makeup, especially mascaras. However, overall, I think it's a great product and would recommend it to others -- especially based on the price and overall effectiveness! For the most part, it does do what it promises. :)
Thanks NIVEA for sending me this product to review! #gotitfree

Lipton Green Tea Matcha is super refreshing and will definitely make your taste buds happy!
This tea has a lovely flavour! I love the pyramid-shaped bags and the fact that I don't have to make a mess by whisking the tea myself in order to enjoy a cup. While there have been other matcha teas that I have preferred because of their flavour, this one comes pretty close! It's so nice to be able to enjoy matcha on the go as well, and the packaging is so beautiful! The quality is good overall and the price is definitely right! Thank you ChickAdvisor and Lipton Tea for the opportunity to try and review this product - it was really enjoyable! #gotitfree

Lipton Green Tea Matcha Ginger quenches your thirst and tastes great!
This tea is delicious! It's such a nice combination of matcha and ginger; neither one is overpowering, so the combination of both flavours is really nice. As far as ginger teas go, this isn't nearly as strong as some of the other ones I've had, but it was a welcome change. I also really like the pyramid tea bigs this comes in - they make you feel so fancy! Great quality tea & great flavour!! Thanks for the chance to review this product, ChickAdvisor and Lipton!! #gotitfree

I really like Tarte's use of more natural ingredients and what the brand stands for in general, but this concealer makes me break out big time. I personally wouldn't recommend this product if you have combination, oily, or acne-prone skin - especially since it was pretty pricey. It does an okay job of concealing but it also tends to smudge and look cakey throughout the day. For all these reasons, I'm still on the hunt for my 'holy grail' concealer. -

Lipton Green Tea Mandarin Orange is refreshing, citrusy, and all-around delicious!
As an avid tea drinker, I have to say, I've been a long-time fan of Lipton tea products. This new flavour is a fantastic addition to their product line! You get the earthy green tea taste with citrusy notes of mandarin all in one sip - who could ask for more? It's very tasty but not as overpowering as other green teas that feature fruit. It's no secret that Lipton is known for creating quality products, and this tea is no exception. Plus, the 72/box count is such a great deal - definitely cost-effective, as I was able to brew a few cups with just one tea bag!
I'm very grateful that Lipton gave me the opportunity to review this product! #gotitfree

Overall, this is a pretty good product. I really like the fact that it's a spray and the whole "moisturize-on-the-go" bit because it is extremely handy and convenient; I love being able to hop in the shower and quickly spray and rub this in during times when I'm feeling lazy or am in a big rush! It does a fantastic job of making my skin feel hydrated and soft, which I also love. I think the price is pretty high for the amount of product, though -- this is a product that I would probably only repurchase if it were on sale/I had a coupon. I'm also not a huge fan of the smell; at first I liked it, but as I continued to spray it over the course of a few minutes, the smell got stronger and stronger and I really didn't enjoy it. I might repurchase this if I was able to score a good deal on it, but the smell is unfortunately a bit of a turn off for me. I will definitely finish up the bottle though, because I do love how soft it made my skin -- especially my legs! -- feel. -

This has been one of the perfumes that I rotate between on a daily basis for awhile! The scent is very "girly" -- super fruity, with strong sweet, flowery accents. I love the way that it smells on my skin. I also find that it lasts throughout the day without being too overpowering, which is what I prefer. I usually spritz it on my wrists and collarbone area at the beginning of the day, and if I'm going out somewhere special (like out with friends or on a date) I might spray a little bit more in the evening, but I don't find that it's mandatory with this perfume; I like that I don't have to constantly reapply it. It's not a perfume I wear every single day, but I definitely find that it's one that I come back to time after time. Also, the package is so gorgeous -- it looks so pretty on display on my perfume shelf. I love the sparkly purple tone of the bottle and the charms are such a great addition! I think the price is pretty average for higher quality perfumes, so I can't complain. The full sized bottle has also lasted me for ages, which I'm really happy about. If you like whimsical, girly, fruity/flowery scents, this perfume is for you!
I can't wait to try her new perfume; I think Taylor Swift did a great job with this one! :)

Truthfully, this product is one of the better drugstore brand mascaras that I've tried. However, I wouldn't say that it's one of my all time favourite mascaras either. It does do a great job of lengthening and volumizing my eyelashes, and I love how much bigger it makes my eyes seem. I think the formula is pretty decent because of this. However, I really dislike the brush -- I greatly prefer the bigger side of it, and because of this, I wish the brush was more of a rectangular shape instead having an angled shape. I feel like the brush is responsible for a lot of the clumping that occurs when I apply this mascara, and it's unfortunate because I really think that this would be a better product if the brush was different. I also find that because it's prone to clumping, I not only have to spend longer removing the excess product from my lashes, but I also noticed that as hours went by, I ended up with some black remnants underneath my lower lash line, which looked terrible. The product is pretty long lasting in general, but if it's going to flake off and end up messily gathering underneath my eyes every time I wear it, I think I'd rather experiment with a new mascara instead. I'll definitely finish the tube because it does do a wonderful job of making my eyelashes very full and my eyes appear a lot bigger, but for me the cons outweigh the pros this time. The price is pretty average, and I feel like the product itself is slightly better than average, but not wonderful unfortunately. -

I received this hand cream in my Julep Trick or Treat Mystery Box recently, and I am really impressed with the quality! I love Julep's polishes but am not as familiar with their beauty and skincare products, so I was really happy to give this a try! I love the smell of this cream. It's a difficult scent to describe, but it's definitely a pleasant one -- I really like it! It's a clean smell -- not medicinal, but not quite fruity either... I think I'd probably put it in the flowery category. Either way, it's a light smell but not overpowering, which I'm happy about. The cream is thicker in texture, but it blends really nicely into the skin. It feels a little greasy when you first apply it, but then it quickly absorbs into the skin and the greasiness goes away. It's very moisturizing so I think it'll be great for the quickly-approaching Canadian winter, and as a result, I'm looking forward to testing it out when the weather gets colder. I also love that it's made from some natural ingredients. According to Julep's website, the formula for this cream includes rosehip seed oil (maybe that's what I smell!), green coffee bean oil, and malvaceae lipid extract, which is lovely. Since I received this product from the mystery box, I didn't purchase it at it's regular price. Based on the quality of it, I would want to repurchase it because it is so high end, but at the same time, $20.00 is steep for me for a 71g container of hand cream. However, I am willing to pay more for cruelty free products (which this is -- yay!) so I'd have to think about it. -
