I received from chickadvisor #got it free, to try out the new AVEENO serum and primer and I must say I feel so lucky to once again try another AVEENO product that works and does what it says it will do without irritation or side effects.
My face felt so smooth and refreshed, I loomed younger I think ;)
I noticed my makeup went on so smoothly, everything blended in perfectly. I noticed I wasn't breaking out as much and I felt my face could breathe.
My face was not sticky or dry after use but justaverage normal which was good. There was no unpleasant scents, more a subtle organic smell I would say like a natural smelling product. I a man excited to try out the rest of the new AVEENO line collection as I already feel lucky to have tried and will be e adding these to my routine daily

I received this new Vichy product from chick advisor #got it free
Thank you for the opportunity to try this great peel, because it worked wonders in comparison to other products I have used especially over night or in particular spa visits. I enjoyed that I looked refreshed after a few days of use, I liked it wasn't sticky or have a strong scent. Most important the price.
There were a few ingredients that normally I wouldn't recommend but because it is not a product I would use every night I did not mind, especially for th price sold for. This would last me a long time, and only little is needed. I had no irritation or itchy face as with other peeling facial products is another added bonus

I do see a difference in price when it comes to a good mascara.
I recently finished the Maybelline the falsies dual sided (which I left a recent review) and now I will comment on my experience with the too faced better than sex mascara.
I personally don't like the name... ;)
esp. when my mother saw she blushed haha
However, it does work!!!!
Just 2 coats is all I need to have BEAUTIFUL eyes that last throughout the day.
The brush and the actual mascara dye somehow open up the eyelashes, giving them a beautiful wide eye look, full of volume and length.
The mascara did not clump.
The mascara tube itself can last a very long time, as you apply it once in the morning, for me only 2 coats, and I am done!!!
As oppose to other mascaras, I paid more but it lasted a much longer time, so in the end it balances out the value!!!
Absolutely stunning eyes, no wonder Sephora keeps selling this mascara as one of their top choices

I do like Maybelline makeup products as they are affordable, stylish , and majority of the time work :)
However this mascara I wont be purchasing again.
I liked the packaging, the colors, and I liked the dual side for upper and lower lashes.
To me, this made no difference in the end...I did not see a visible result using the upper or lower lash brush, instead it was a nuisance to have to switch to the mascara dye back and forth once one side was finished.
I think it was more of a marketing gimmick, to be honest the dual sided.
As for even the upper lashes, I had to apply couple more coats than I would with other mascaras to get the "falsies" appearance.
I went through this mascara much quicker than I would have with other ones, because I had to apply more coats for my eyes to stand out as they do with our mascara makeup brands.

The green beaver company hand soap foaming in lavender scent in particular has been a household staple for us as a family. We leave the prettier and fancier soaps for guests, however for daily use natural is key and this particular hand soap works great for our family.
The lavender scent is mild and not overpowering and natural smelling, leaving nice fresh scent, along with foaming hand soap only one pump is needed to get the right amount of foam to clean hands properly.
Bottle lasts a very long time, and often the natural section in most stores (ie. fortinos) where I purchase this hand soap goes on sale often, so great to stock up to save a couple of bucks in he long term.
I have excreta and doesn't irritate the hands.
Free of parabens, triclosans, and synthetic perfume, as well no SLS.
GOOD INGREDIENTS IF you read ingredients list.
Skin isn't irritated, does the job by cleaning hands and leaves a pleasant healthy lavender scent.

She's known for her family nam and FASHION, however perfume is very bland...typical floral fragrance that I can not tell apart from a hundred others.....it is that similar.
I received a few samples from shoppers drug mart of this fragrance so it was great I got a chance to try for free, smells fruity, subtle, yet sweet...however smells like so many other fragrances, I think it is just sold for the name.
Staying power wise, I didn't notice the scent nor did family members when I asked an hour later....so it was cheap quality that didn't last.
Not worth the price, just for a celebrity endorsed fragrance to own. Smells sweet but if doesn't last and is more pricey than so many almost identical scents, I definitely will pass

Unfortunately, I didn't have a good experience with the carrier for my baby.
I actually returned it back to babies r us
Originally bought to be meant for our vacation in the caribbeans, myself and our family did not like it.
The color, design, concept was what sold us and reading reviews, but I guess the carrier wasn't meant for us....I didn't like how it held on,I didn't like the support, and I got more pain when in use in my back than other carriers I tried through other family members had.
Maybe it just didn't work for us, I did like the color design price point, however it just didn't work for us and was returned.

I received samples to try of SUNDAY RILEY repair moisturizer cream, and I found it has its pros and cons as a moisturizer.
Pros;
It is not greasy as mentioned on packaging, which really it was not even a tad bit greasy it went onto the skin, smoothed out the skin, almost a layer that didn't feel sticky or greasy upon use. I could sleep on a pillow at night and not worry almost product getting on the fabrics or on my hair for example.
It did improve skin aging appearance. As I noticed right away my face smoother, lines especially small ones filled in and heavy forehead wrinkles minized greatly.
Long term, I think this moisturizer has a lot of potential.
Con;
I absolutely hated the scent, I smelled like cleaning products were being applied to my face. For that reason, I absolutely dot think I'll buy. It was very harsh and strong......

Ona budget GEL cream found in any local drug store.
I received several as a sample to try for over 2 months time, and glad I did try....I actually liked and normally GARNIER products I don't really tend to be happy with personally.
Very light and smooth GEL cream, very refreshing feeling...very light weight, soft smooth feeling on face. I used at night time, as the GEL cream does the absorb rite away skin, so best to use at night and wake up refreshed.
I lied that the GEL cream had a rose like, mild scent , my husband even complimented. Maybe those who doesn't like fragrance on facial products won't like, but I didn't mind.
I liked it left face soft looking in the morning didn't even need a day time moisturizer with use. Really surprised me, normally wouldn't have considered, but might .... though prefer other creams on the mr,et more higher end, this one might be a cheaper alternative to consider.

I didn't like anything about this cleansing gel, ended up throwing it away as it was not finished but was open for over 2 years....I didn't like it that much....
No scent is ok I guess added fragrance doesn't help your skin, but I didn't smell clean on some days you want to smell refreshed.
I didn't notice any lenasng of my skin, in fact skin felt very dry, I would have been better cleansing with water alone...and feeling cleaner and hydrated....
Just over all not good or at least didn't work for my skin routine
