This is a fantastic nail strengthener as well as a base coat to apply before your nail polish. It has made my nails less brittle and I love the fact that it dries so quickly, making the manicure process a breeze. It's a little on the pricey side but well worth the money. I have repurchased this multiple times and will continue to keep it as a staple product for my manicure. -

The Kind to Skin Refreshing Facial Wash by the brand "Simple" is a fantastic product. I have sensitive combination skin and have found this to be one of the best, gentle cleansers I have tried in a while. It keeps the oily T-zone section feeling normal throughout the day and the flaky patches are definitely more moisturized ever since I started using this. The gel formula has a cooling effect once applied to the skin and all you need is a tiny amount to wash your face. My main concern when using gel type cleansers is trying to rinse away the product. Sometimes, I feel as though it takes forever to wash off but this product is easy to remove with a few splashes of water. It doesn't create too much of a lather, just enough to know you've worked it well onto your skin. In terms of removing makeup, I feel like it does a decent job. A great drugstore purchase, in my opinion! -

I received this as part of the ChickAdvisor's Product Review Club. The GOSH Forever Eye Shadow Stick in the shade 06 Plum is a must have for ladies who love wearing eyeshadow. This product is applied either as a base for a similar colored eyeshadow (in this case a shimmery silvered purple), or even on its own as a creamy eyeshadow since it is pigmented enough to do so. When I first applied this to my lids, the creamy texture blended beautifully and set quickly as well, so I recommend blending it out right away, since it will no longer budge. It does come off with eye makeup remover, though. I did not have any issues with it creasing on my lids and the color was really flattering as well. It has a nice satiny, shimmery shine which gives your makeup look a nice texture. They come in a variety of beautiful shades and I wouldn't mind repurchasing them. I highly recommend these eyeshadow sticks! -

I received this product as part of the ChickAdvisor's Product Review Club. The GOSH Crazy Volume Mascara is a great product! This gave my lashes lots of needed volume as well as length with the very first coat! I applied two coats in all and my lashes have never looked better. The brush is quite unique in my opinion, as it has longer wispy bristles on one end and shorter ones on the opposite side. I used the shorter end on my bottom lashes as well as the very tip to separate them. I really liked the versatility this offered. In terms of clumps, there were none to be found. The packaging is bright and cute, making it easy to find in my makeup bag. The only issue I have with the product is that I wish it was waterproof, as that is what I usually wear. Other than that, a fantastic mascara! -

I received this product as part of the ChickAdvisor's Product Review Club. I got to try out the GOSH Lip Lacquer in shade 006 Funky Lips which is a dark fuschia/red/hot pink tone. The color is very pigmented and it acts as both a lipstick and gloss in one. It contains argan oil and vitamin E which really helped my lips feel moisturized while I was wearing this, almost as though I had applied a lip balm underneath. The shine is incredible, but not over the top. Since the shade is intense, I would consider applying a lip primer and lip liner first so that the product doesn't bleed outwards past the lips. When I removed the lacquer from my lips, I did notice that it left behind a rosy stain, which I didn't mind since it still looked good on me, but others may have an issue with this. In terms of the packaging, I would have liked to see this product in a typical lipgloss tube instead of a nail polish container. I imagine it's going to become more difficult to gather up the product as I continue to use it since the applicator isn't very long. The price is quite expensive as well, so I don't think I'll be repurchasing it frequently. They do come in a variety of shades, so I may make an exception if I find one that I really like. -

I received this product as part of the ChickAdvisor's Product Review Club. The GOSH Prime 'n Set is a two in one powder that claims to be both a face primer and a mattifying setting powder. So far, my experience with face primers has been in gel, cream or liquid form. This being the first powdered primer I have used, I was a little skeptical at first since powders are usually used to set you makeup, not to be placed under your foundation. The powder is finely milled and very light colored and it goes on translucent when applied to your skin. People with darker skin tones may find it a little ashy, in my opinion, but on my fair skin, it blended in nicely. I found that as a primer, it worked best on my oiliest sections like the T-zone. It did work well to cover pores and fine lines. However, on my driest areas like my cheeks, it did create some slight dry patches. I would therefore use it only in the oiliest areas as a primer. As a setting powder, it worked wonderfully. My makeup lasted the whole day and my T-zone still looked mattified to me. The product did not make my face itchy and I do appreciate that it does not contain parabens. You get 7 grams of product which is a good amount and the adjustable sifter is easy to work with. There was some loose powder on top of the sifter when I initially opened the jar, but after I used that up, it was fine. -

I received this product thanks to ChickAdvisor's Product Review Program and have been trying the gummy vitamins for a few days now. My usual multivitamins are very hard to swallow and I've come very close to choking on them at times. These Vitafusion vitamins were a welcomed change! The fact that you can chew them like gummy candies makes taking them a breeze and they also taste great. Compared to my regular vitamins, they contain more or less the same amount of nutrients, however, they do recommend you take up to 2 a day for adults, whereas I only need to take one of my regular hard-pilled vitamins daily. The cost is pretty affordable, but if you do decide to take the maximum daily dosage, the Vitafusion vitamins will finish faster and won't be as cost effective as getting a year supply bottle at Costco, for instance. Nevertheless, Vitafusion vitamins have made me look forward to taking them every day! -

I received this product for free as part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Program.
This is one of the best whitening toothpastes I have ever tried. It makes my mouth feel so clean and it only took a few uses to start to see its whitening effects. Some surface stains were gone after just two uses, something my regular toothpaste and whitening mouthwash couldn't get rid of. I'm not a fan of whitening strips since they cause me tooth sensitivity, so this is a great alternative and so much easier to use because all you have to do is brush your teeth! So far, I am happy with how bright my teeth look, so I might just use this for a few days in a row when I feel that my teeth need a little sparkle, like before an important event. It tastes like baking soda, not minty like most toothpastes, which I really don't mind, however, it might not be to everyone's liking, especially if you are new to brushing with baking soda. Overall, I am really happy with the results and would suggest this product to everyone who is looking to brighten their smile.

If you want an affordable dupe to the NARS Orgasm blush and Laguna bronzer, this is it! The shades e.l.f. offers come pretty close to theirs and the pigmentation is amazing, so a little goes a long way. I suggest you tap your makeup brush lightly so as not to go overboard with the product. I did find the product to be a little powdery when you swipe your brush across the pans, but if you're careful, you'll avoid making a mess. I really like the fact that both blush and bronzer come in the same case, making it more compact for your makeup bag. I have received many compliments when wearing this and in my opinion, it looks just as good as any high end product out there. The shades offered will probably suit most skin tones. Just use a lighter hand if you are fair skinned. -

This product is a must have for every household. Its cleaning uses are versatile, eliminating things such as scuff marks, dirt, and even crayon scribbles your little ones have "decorated" your walls with. I usually cut the magic eraser into smaller pieces so that I get many uses out of it. Just make sure to test the surface you are cleaning first so as not to damage it. Also, keep out of reach of children since it can cause burns on your skin if rubbed on. -
