I absolutely love the packaging and scent of this whole line. It looks so cute in the shower! However, I have pink hair and this stripped a lot more color out of my hair than other shampoos which I feel like shouldn’t happen with a color shampoo. It also left my hair feeling quite dry even after conditioning.
All in all: smells and looks great but works just ok.

I absolutely love roses and the colour pink (even my hair is pink!), so I was instantly sold on the packaging and the scent. The bottle is very pretty and to me it’s a very true rose scent without being too superficial.
The product itself is ok. I dont feel like it did much for the colour of my hair or made it feel especially soft. It left it smelling nice though but other than that it’s not that different from other drugstore conditioners.
The pachaging makes me want to buy it again though!

Lancôme Monsieur Big Mascara
I'm usually pretty cheap when it comes to mascara since I wear glasses and my lashes aren't very visible anyway.. so I was excited that I would get to try this for free! I should mention that I will be 100% honest even though I received this product... +
I'm usually pretty cheap when it comes to mascara since I wear glasses and my lashes aren't very visible anyway.. so I was excited that I would get to try this for free! I should mention that I will be 100% honest even though I received this product free of charge.
The packaging is nice first of all. I like that it 'clicks' when you close it and the brush is simple but effective. I really like the consistency and your lashes stay quite flexible once mascara is applied. I didn't get any flaking or random bits of mascara during the day. I can ever use it on my bottom lashes without too much trouble, and it dries quick!
However, it's REALLY hard to remove. My trusty coconut oil is not enough to remove it well and it takes a lot of rubbing.. also noticed that on hot days it would transfer slightly onto my lids.
It's a good product, but I will probably stick to my more budget friendly mascara.

The best lipstick I've ever tried, hands down.
I was using KvD liquid lipsticks for a while, but once my favourite red ran out I decided to replace it with this baby. The packaging is gorgeous and very true to original vintage make up packaging. The shape of the lipstick is great too and enables you to outline your lips first before filling them in. It smells like vanilla which isn't necessarily my favourite (it could be unscented imo) but it's not overbearing. Application is super smooth, it doesn't bleed (even without liner) and it lasts ALL DAY. Even through eating, drinking, kissing etc. I sometimes only have to touch it up a little bit by the end of the day if I go out.
I'm definitely going to get more colours (if not all of them!) :)

I received this from Chickadvisor for free in return for my honest review, so here it is! I do a lot of vintage/pin up inspired styles plus I have bright pink & purple hair. Those are two reasons why I only wash my hair once a week. This is why I was excited to try this product that was supposed to make my hair feel clean and fresh without the hassle of having to wash it.
The packaging is super cute! They really made an effort with that and it's not something you feel like you should hide under the sink. After three days of not washing my hair I figured it was time to try this pretty thing out. As directed I sprayed and tousled my hair and brushed afterwards. I'm not a big fan of the smell (doesn't smell like cherries to me) and my hair didn't feel any different. If anything it felt weighed down more than usual. I didn't expect it to make my hair feel freshly washed, but I also didn't think it would just make my hair feel dirtier.
I tried it a few more times on different days, but to no avail. I felt like my hair only started to feel dirtier and heavier sooner than when I didn't use it. I also felt bits in my hair here and there, even though I shook it well before each use and didn't use that much. So.. I'm not a fan and will probably pass this on to a friend to see if they like it.

i used to always get the regular Thermal Creations spray from Tresemme, but decided to give this one a shot for once. I'm so glad I did! this stuff leaves my hair feeling super soft, plus the smell is nicer. I will stray straight for days and does not leave my hair feeling heavy or greasy. Lasts a long time too and it's usually on sale at Shoppers drugmart so it's great value. Highly recommended for all ladies on a budget! -

#gotitfree - St. Ives Cleanse & Hydrate Aloe Vera Hydrating Facial Cleansing Wipes from chickadvisor
I don't usually use make up wipes, but i like to have them as a back up for when I'm too tired to do my full skin care routine (or can't bring everything with me). These wipes work great! The smell is really nice and it takes my make up off pretty well (nothing beats my trusty coconut oil though). They leave my skin feeling quite clean and refreshed. They're not extraordinary, but definitely not bad either. My only complaint is that they're not cruelty free.

This stuff is one my new favourite products! My skin is super smooth after using it and also doubles as an excellent primer. My make up simply glides on whenever i use this stuff. A little goes a long way so even though the bottle is small, you get a lot out of it. I also like to convenient pump. Will buy this product over and over again. -

I got this product for free to try from Chickadvisor along with two other products. Even though this lotion did feel a bit harsh at first and the smell is very álchohol-ish' I do feel like it does a very good job deeply cleansing the skin and getting rid of any last dirt that's left after cleaning your face. After I used this for 4 weeks along with the other two products I saw a considerable difference in my skin. I started out with pretty bad acne that came out of nowhere and now only have the occasional pimple. You also get a lot for your buck. The packaging is very pretty as well. The worst smell out of the three but definitely does the job. I will probably buy this again! -
