I am lucky I didn't spend money on this product, instead it was gifted...because I did not like it, I wasn't satisfied at all.
Pointless product in my beauty regime for evening routine. I saw no difference. My skin felt no difference and I saw no difference. Any dark spots looked and felt the same. Made no difference to complexion also, or skin tone or texture.
I also did not like the applicator, took so long for product to come enough to apply to entire face and specific areas.
Not worth the money or quality for a product I saw no results.
Definitely no "brightening" effect which was an excitement for me to try.

I received about 2 weeks worth of the eye cream all about eyes from clinique to try and reflect on my results.
I saw none...
There was no difference in my eye area whatsoever.
There was no reduction in circles under the eyes, no reduction in puffiness under the eye area and surrounding, there was no visible results within a 2 week period to say this cream even slightly works.
I did not even notice a moisturizing effect which at least would have complimented the eye area at least a little.
There lacked moisture, there lacked any depth into the skin of this cream.
No results, no hydration.
I am glad I tried however there are other comparable brands that have eye creams that show results instantly or at least within several days of use....and definitely by 2 weeks.
I was disappointed and glad I did not purchase this product but got to sample it for a period of time before purchasing for a price.

I usually like Dolce & Gabbana fragrances (especially light blue!) classic favorite, so I was excited when I received samples of Dolce & Gabbana new fragrance in Garden the name....
The scent was a rose like scent, but not quite...a combination of rose with something that I did not necessarily think it combined...
however the main issue I had was not even with a half hour I found the scent gone...and I sprayed a lot each time! There was absolutely ZERO staying power!!!! It is literally a spray at the exact moment you greet someone and then leave. I couldnt believe how quickly the scent disappeared. I tried several days, several times with the exact same experience.
If I had actually purchased the full size bottle I would definitely have returned this fragrance.

I received by sample from sephora three various shades of hourglass foundation stick to try before I purchase. I was looking for a new foundation, and the beauty consultant suggested the foundation stick. I tried in 3 colors, one lighter, one average to my skin tone and one darker (shell, nude, beige).
Honest opinion...all 3 horrible.
None of them blended well. I had to adjust color with my own at home foundation for these to work and I used three different colors to test.
Also left my face feeling very dry, esp now with the winter dry weather every line, wrinkle, imperfection was shown not hidden as makeup should do.
Never heard of the brand, and now I know why...

I also received Narciso eau de toilette rouge by Narciso Rodriguez to sample try during a cosmetics and beauty splurge event.
I wore the perfume for several days. I was appreciative to have sampled this perfume. I wouldn't purchase it personally, as I found it very expensive price tag for a scent that is comparable and does not stand out from other perfumes. I would not be able to distinguish this fragrance within a blind scent test personally...
It is nice, I like that there is an underlying scent of Rose within. It appeals to me anything rose scented.
It lasts a long days wear, even into the evening / night hours from the morning application spray so the lasting power is there.
I do like this fragrance, but I wouldn't be replacing my own perfumes for this one. Would use again if received complimentary or samples again to try. :)

I received several samples to try of Givenchy Irresistible perfume to try during a recent cosmetics splurge at the store. I am glad I tried, as I would not pay the expensive price tag for this particular perfume (and I do mention I very much so enjoy Givenchy other perfume fragrance scents.)
The scent was overwhelming, too strong in a soft tone, hard to explain just too much sweetness too much musk scent in one combined. It was almost hard to breathe in that scent the day it was put on. Very lasting. Givenchy is known for lasting scent, but this one I wanted off.
I feel they need to tone it down if I was to wear again, like I said glad didn't splurge on this perfume as it is too strong, too overwhelming for comfort.

I finished using CETAPHIL HYDRATING eye gel-cream and I must say I was surprised it was a CETAPHIL product as it worked. It was deeply hydrating, so much so that my fine lines and wrinkles dramatically reduced or even disappeared!! I actually did used some of the gel cream also on my forehead for added benefits from the deep lines that appear there.
I found though a little sensitive, some parts of skin around eye that are very delicate I did feel a slight ting, a slight discomfort. I was just cautious afterwards where to apply moving forward.
Good price for a product that works, usually CETAPHIL is known for quality products with affordable reasonable price tag.
Good product for eye or other facial areas that require deeper hydration and hide the lines.
Overall a good product :)

I purchased this MAC mascara in between my usual mascara as there was a promotion in store and decided to try it out. I wasn't too happy actually...
A little pricey for the results that personally I did not like on my own lashes.
I found the lashes to be clumpy, and I found the large tube finished faster and became more clumpy than other very cheaper mascaras which surprised me.
I did not like that the actual brush even, did not separate lashes as other brushes do either.
Also the actual tube I consistently had to wipe clean as the mascara would dry up and not even close properly...not sure if just my experience, but I wasn't too happy for the price I paid even with the 15% discount offered in store.
The deep color of black was good as should be , and the mascara stayed on my lashes longer than other mascaras, but the actual look for my lashes makes this mascara a no go choice for me. I won't be purchasing again

I recently finished using the Boscia cactus water moisturizer.
I was surprised by the refreshing moisture it provided not only my face but body too (I used on my slightly sun burnt chest and shoulders arms) and the body was quenched of the dryness and thirst it wanted. I was able to feel relief, I did not like though that it didn't absorb too well into the skin but rather stayed on the skin, so if you are looking for a deep moisturizer a heavier cream would be recommended. This one was more relaxing providing relief and a coat of moisture. It was definitely different from other moisturizers I had purchased and used before.
Something different, I would use especially in the summer months, as burnt skin wants to feel refreshed and this was gentle and yet comforting to use.

Pampers complete clean baby wipes in fresh scent are my favourite wipes so far that I have tried and used.
I have tried numerous baby wipes and as well wipes in general for travel or daily use and I keep coming back to pampers complete clean.
They are affordable a big box can be purchased from Amazon or Walmart for a good price and individual packed make it convenient to leave in bag, home, in the car and on the go.
The wipes are moist and that allows a good clean of most important thebum area but also daily use and messes in both child and parent.
The fresh scent makes everything feel and smell clean especially during those smelly diaper moments it is a relief when out. Also great for any messes on yourself asan adult that cause a mess and a quick wipe is moist and greatly scented.
Also the wipes are strong and durable not fall apart as others feel less durable.
