I can't say enough good things about this workout DVD! I used to use a workout DVD set that took an hour and a half every day, and I never really saw any results. Plus, it was a pain to fit it into my daily routine. I bought this workout after reading some great reviews and decided to give it a try. Wow, was I ever glad I did! I found this to be a tough workout, but it was quick, and even my husband said he could see a difference after doing it for only three weeks. I'd used the other high-priced workout set for over four months and he said he couldn't see a difference at all from that one.
As a mother of three, I didn't think I'd ever feel comfortable in a bathing suit again, but after using this for a month, I felt secure enough to put on my old bikini. It really tightens everything up and since it takes so little time, it leaves me lots of time to play with the kids. Seriously, anyone can fit this into their day, and as soon as you start seeing the results, you won't want to stop. Plus, the price is unbeatable. I'd still recommend it if it were $100.

I received this product to review from the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club
This product really made me rethink my skincare routine. I hadn't used a serum as part of my daily regimen before, but this product has changed my mind. Contrary to serums I had tried in the past, this one seemed to glide onto my skin and sink in without leaving any kind of greasy or oily feeling. I enjoyed using it each morning and night, and a little really does go a long way. I have definitely seen an improvement in my skin over the last month or so of using this in combination with the Vichy LiftActiv Supreme day and night creams. While I usually feel the need to cake on the makeup in the summer months to battle breakouts and skin irritation, I've found that since using these products I've been able to go makeup free most days. My skin is looking great, and I have Vichy to thank for it.

I received this product to review through the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club.
I was pleasantly surprised by this night cream. I've always tended to skip a cream at night as many are too heavy and will cause breakouts, especially in the heat of the summer. This cream, however, while appearing rich and heavy, actually absorbed into my skin very well. I really liked the light scent. My husband isn't a fan of heavily-scented creams or lotions, but this didn't bother him at all. While I've been using the Vichy line including the LiftActiv Supreme Day Cream, the Serum 10 Supreme, and this night cream, I have noticed a great difference in my skin. It seems better hydrated, plumper, and the fine lines are harder to notice. I think I'll be keeping this cream in my nightly skincare routine.

I'm really impressed with this cream. It is somehow both rich and light at the same time. I was hesitant to put what seemed like such a rich cream on my skin in the middle of a hot summer, but to my surprise, after it was applied it just seemed to sink into my skin. It didn't look greasy or oily at all. In fact, on quite a few occasions I skipped wearing makeup - something I would never do before because my complexion looked bright, even, and hydrated simply from the cream. I really like the scent as well. It is delicate and fresh, I would definitely consider buying this cream in the future. -

This is a great low-cost cleanser. It removes all your makeup and leaves your skin moisturized, but not greasy. When I was having issues with breakouts someone recommended this to me. It seemed counter-intuitive to put a cream like this on skin that was breaking out, but it cleared up my skin problems in weeks. My husband has used it too on those odd occasions when he's broken out. We always keep some in the house, and it's my go-to product whenever my skin has any issues. -

I received this product for free to review through the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club.
I really like this cleansing water. It reminded me of a toner, only more refreshing to the skin. Toners I have used in the past have been very drying to the skin, but this was nice and gentle. I thought I would go through the bottle very quickly, but it seems to be lasting a long time, despite using a generous amount on a cotton pad morning and evening.
This is the type of product I would probably have never picked up in the store, but after trying it, I think it will be a new staple in my skincare regimen.
I was very impressed by all of the Simple products I received to review, and I will be purchasing them again in the future.

I received this product free to try through the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club.
I really like these wipes. They remove every trace of my makeup and leave my face feeling fresh and clean. Unlike other wipes I've tried, they didn't feel like they left a residue on my face, and there was no need to rinse afterwards.
I have previously only used wipes like these while travelling, but I would seriously consider changing to these. The only hesitation I have is the price. They are well-priced compared to other wipes, but still a pricier option than using a facewash.
I will definitely be purchasing these in the future to leave in my bag for unexpected overnights or for when travelling, but I'm not sure yet if I'll be making them my every day cleanser yet.

I received this product free to try though the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club.
I have to say, I'm loving this moisturizer. The texture is unique; it seems like a thick cream in your hand, but it goes on fairly light. I often skip a nighttime moisturizer as I find the majority to be too greasy; however, this one felt light and fresh, like my skin was still being allowed to breathe.
Quite a few people have commented on the smell, but I didn't find it unpleasant, nor did my husband who usually comments if anything I use has much of a scent. My daughter did tell me my face smelled beautiful one morning just after putting it on, so perhaps the scent diffuses quickly.
The only complaint I have for this cream is that there is no SPF. As someone with very fair skin, I never venture outside without an SPF, even on a cloudy day in the middle of winter. As a result, I had to layer my regular moisturizer with SPF over top during the daytime.

This is a nice base for using underneath my makeup. It also works well for me as a nighttime moisturizer, as I like something that isn't too greasy or heavy. My husband doesn't object to the scent, which is a big plus. I find many night-time moisturizers can be heavily scented.
I felt like the product was reducing that crepe-paper look around the eyes, which was a big seller for me. I'd like to hold off the aging process as long as possible.
The product only arrived a few days ago, so I haven't had a chance to use it long term to see the results, but I will try to update my review at a later point to see if the results continue or even improve. I have confidence since this is a Nivea product, and I don't believe I've ever had anything from Nivea that failed to please.

I received this product to try and review through ChickAdvisor's Product Review Club.
Moisturizing in the shower is such a great idea, it makes me wonder why I haven't been doing this for years. Lack of an appropriate product I suppose. I, for one, have always hated stepping out of a steaming shower to slather on cold moisturizer. This is a great alternative.
I admittedly tend to forego my moisturizer for the above-noted reason, so I've experienced a remarkable difference in my skin since using this product. I haven't been using it for very long, but I think it will be a new part of my routine.
