After trying Aveeno's new peel off mask, I was skeptical about using this one. I'm happy to report this mask was easier to work with, and actually made a difference in my skin after using. It hurt a bit to peel off, but I felt like it really grabbed onto the dirt in my pores.
I received this peel off mask complimentary from ChickAdvisor in exchange for my honest opinion.

Neutrogena Pink Grapefruit Acne-Prone Skin Clay Mask

I received John Freida's Go Blonder Lemon Miracle Masque complimentary from ChickAdvisor. I've always has blonde hair, and I dye it and have heat damage constantly. I was looking forward to this hair mask to bring some moisture back into my hair and to have a richer blonde tone. I didn't notice any difference in my hair unfortunately.
I would not spend $12.99 on this! Even if it worked, I needed to use half the tube (my hair is past my shoulders).. I would only get 2-3 uses out of this. Not worth the price.

I love nothing more than to take off my makeup at the end of a night and give myself a mini facial. I was so happy to see the Aveeno Positively Radiant MAXGLOW Peel Off Mask included in my package from ChickAdvisor (complimentary). There’s something about peel off masks that are so satisfying.. maybe it’s the feeling of removing dead skin and dirt, or it could bring me back to my childhood when you’d put white glue on your hand, let it dry, then peel it off haha. Either way, I will never get bored of using peel off masks. This Peel Off Mask is a soap-free, non-rinse exfoliator infused with alpha hydroxy acids, soy and kiwi complex that lift away dull, tired skin.
The directions say to apply a generous layer and let it dry for 15-20 minutes. I applied it with a brush and it went on super thick and tricky to apply. While it was drying, it almost “melted” down my face in some spots and I was skeptical about it drying quickly. Well, it took 30+ minutes to finally dry, but was surprisingly easy to peel off. I didn’t notice any difference in my skin again, other than it turning red from being irritated. I wouldn’t repurchase this peel-off mask, or recommend it.

I received Aveeno Positively Radiant MAXGLOW No-Mess Sleep Mask complimentary from ChickAdvisor! This mask helps replenish moisture and even skin’s tone and texture, much like the Infusion Drops are said to do. With their no-mess paddle applicator, it helps your hands stay clean while applying. I usually apply my face masks with a brush, so I don’t worry about my fingers getting dirty, but this built-in applicator only meant less cleanup for me!
I think of all the products in this collection, this one is my most mixed review. The paddle does what it’s supposed to, but it just doesn’t work well with me. It’s hard to get an even layer on your face, and super tricky to use around the grooves of my face (nose, chin, around eyes). I ended up going around my face with my fingers to spread it evenly. It dried within 20 minutes and wasn’t noticeable any longer. The other problem I faced was that I ended up scratching my nose about 30 minutes later and noticed the sleep mask was rubbed off in the process. I thought perhaps because it was still “fresh” that it was doing this, but in the morning my face looked like I had dandruff all over it! It even got in my hair line and wasn’t super easy to wash off – I had to use a face cloth to make sure I got it all off. Now, the good news.. my skin actually looks and feels SO moisturized. It’s been about 4 hours since I woke up and it still looks great, even with makeup over it. Is the hassle worth the end result?

I received was Aveeno Positively Radiant MAXGLOW Infusion Drops complimentary from ChickAdvisor. These infusion drops are said to give your skin 48 hours full of moisture and a “glow within”, while also evening out your skin tone and texture with the help of a total soy complex. They can be used alone or with moisturizer. These Infusion Drops aren’t your typical serum that looks like an oil, it’s more of a creamy serum. The bottle itself is so pretty, and looks high quality. It comes with a dropper applicator, which I find helpful to get the right amount of product you want. I do enjoy a pump style better (just so I don’t have to worry about anything getting mixed into the product [dust, bacteria, etc]), but I can’t really complain about this dropper. It works how it’s intended to and you’re able to control how much product you want better than a pump style bottle.
I, personally, don’t see a difference in my skin after using it for about a week. I definitely don’t see a “glow” in my skin, even when used by itself or mixed with a moisturizer. I do really enjoy the scent, and perhaps over time I will see a difference, but there has been no immediate difference thus far.

La Roche-Posay HYDRAPHASE INTENSE EYES
I notice in the colder months that my skin really dries out, especially around my eyes. I get dry, itchy patches (not 100% if it's eczema or not). I use this eye serum 2x daily and I do notice a huge difference. My skin is really hydrated. I use it... +
I notice in the colder months that my skin really dries out, especially around my eyes. I get dry, itchy patches (not 100% if it's eczema or not). I use this eye serum 2x daily and I do notice a huge difference. My skin is really hydrated. I use it before applying makeup, and at the end of the night after I wash my face. It absorbs quickly and doesn't leave any residue, so it's perfect under makeup!
This product is a bit pricey, but if the results are worth it, I'm all for it!

Lately the skin around my eyes seem to be very dry, and wrinkles are showing much more. I had previously purchased La Roche-Posay's Hydraphase Intense Eyes but wanted something more affordable. CeraVe's eye cream had a tone of good reviews so I picked myself up a tube last week.
The formula is a thin cream, and applies easily. It sinks into my skin nicely and doesn't leave any residue. That's the only good thing I found with it. I didn't notice any difference in my skin at all, and if anything, my wrinkles/dry patches are almost more pronounced now.
I wouldn't re-purchase this as it doesn't seem like the right product for me.
