I received this product for free in exchange for an honest review. My husband was the one who used the product.
This product would be ideal for after a workout when you don't have time to both shampoo and conditioner your hair. Otherwise, this 2 in 1 doesn't do either very effectively. My husband wears pomade as a hair product and this product didn't remove it all even with vigorous scrubbing. His hair also didn't feel very conditioned. The shampoo did not lather very well either.
I think there is value in this product for convenience, but probably should not replace a regular deep shampoo and condition. Would recommend for gym-goers.

I was so excited when I received this product, thinking it would be the best quality facial product I have ever used. Well, it's certainly the most expensive. The scent was nice and the texture was great for putting on smoothly. My skin felt glowing without looking greasy and getting clogged.
I did not find any benefits that went beyond a regular and much cheaper moisturizer. I am 30, so maybe not the target audience. I just didn't see the smoothing or uplifting qualities that the product promotes.
Thankfully I received this #freeproduct in exchange for an honest review.

Bioré Blue Agave & Baking Soda Whipped Nourishing Detox Mask

I'm always a fan of Biore, and intrigued by claims of "detox" but this didn't meet my needs.
It says to use on a wet face, which I did, but it takes a lot of product and massaging to create enough of the light foam to stick to my skin. It has a nice cooling sensation while waiting the 5 minutes (it did say to "chill" during that time), which will probably be really nice in the summer. The product is quite thin when massaging - not like a typical mask - but more like a foam cleanser that I am leaving on my face. It was very slick, so I had to wipe it off with a washcloth. My skin felt soft afterwards, but a bit sticky, not silky, so my moisturizer didn't go on really smoothly.
I did not like the scent. It was relatively mild but still smells like a cheap men's grooming product.
For being a mask, and having lots of "faddy" words on the label, I wasn't impressed. I prefer other products in their blue agave line more than this. I would not recommend.

My skin is that perfectly irritating blend of both dry and oily (!), so I need a product that will take away oils without leaving my skin feel dried out. This product does that. It easily takes off make-up and leaves my skin feeling refreshed. My only issue is that I find it stings my eyes (when taking off mascara) more than I have experienced with other micellar products. -
Biore Pore Unclogging Scrub
I don't use this product everyday since I find that it irritates my skin with frequent use, but I use it when I just feel my skin feels extra gross. The light scrub feels so nice and my skin feels amazing afterwards!

This product has all the fad words - including the new BLUE AGAVE. Honestly, what is that?
The face mask comes individually packaged, and I found each pack to contain just enough for product to sufficiently cover my face. It was warm when putting it on but that sensation didn't last long. It stung my skin was rinsing it off, both just with water and with a washcloth.
Afterwards, my skin did feel really soft and smooth, and my moisturizer went on really well. The price doesn't make this a product worth getting though.

I am not a soda drinker, but do love a refreshing carbonated drink on hot summer days, so I thought this product would be perfect. It certainly was carbonated! I - and my family who tried it - found it too fizzy, while we tasted more cherry than pom, and not even much flavor at that. I do like that it is not sugary like many other drinks, but I found it to be quite bitter.
This may be a good product if you like a slightly bitter, fizzy soda, but it's not for me.

For me, sunscreen products are infamous for making me feel greasy and smelling like a beach. But this product really changes that. It goes on my skin smoothly and has no residue or greasy feeling. It has a very silky texture. It's a light fresh scent that reminds me of summer but without everyone around me also smelling it.
Although I plan on using this, my husband will also use it to effectively protect his tattoos.
Full disclosure: I tested this product during the Canadian spring/3rd winter, so I can't speak to it's SPF effectiveness.

I REALLY like this product! It goes on so smoothly, feels silky, and dries quickly without making my skin feel tight. It leaves no greasy feeling. Not sure if it's intended as an everyday facial moisturizer, but I use it a couple times a week to really hydrate my skin a lot more then usual. There is very little scent to it.
I would definitely recommend this product!

I am always looking for an easy and effective way to remove my makeup at the end of the day, so I was so excited to give these wipes a try. I was quickly disappointed. It smeared my liquid eyeliner off, but all around my face. I had to constantly find a clean spot on the wipe to clean my skin without spreading the product around. Once finally my makeup was off, it looked and felt like I had a really greasy complexion that I had to wipe off with another product.
The smell was not noticeable, and I think it would be good for sensitive skin, but I would not recommend. I don't think these wipes are worth the price, especially since you'll have to use another product to clean off what these wipes leave behind anyways.
