I received a 7 ml sample of this and was excited to try it since it got alot of great reviews. The first thing I noticed about this product was the scent. To me it had an odd unpleasant smell. In my opinion the aroma was like someone took spilled perfume in white glue.The scent does tend to linger for a while after applying. Once applied it does tend to sit on top of my skin and make it feel slightly tacky. I'm unsure if this comes down to skin type. I have normal to combination skin. Perhaps this is better suited for someone with dry skin. The product might absorb better. I also didn't find it made my skin look exceptionally better. I find I have used inexpensive vitamin c serums that gave me a better complexion. Although this skin care product was not exceptional for me alot of people like it so I can only assume it depends on skin type. I cannot vouch for whether or not it helps with wrinkles as I only have very faint crows feet surrounding the eye area and I would not use this near my eyes and my frown lines. It did not minimize or plump up my frown lines which is what I like in a product because at 38 the only tell tale signs of aging are my frown lines. -

When I apply this perfume to my inner wrist I find that it is extremely sweet with a very faint floral undertone. The scent is stronger than I would prefer and lasts longer than most other scents I have tried in the past. I was hoping over time the scent would be more subtle but that was not the case. Although this is an expensive perfume I honestly wouldn't think so myself. My husband on the other hand finds the scent to be sensual and of good quality. In my opinion that tells me that there is a scent out there for everyone. I am very fussy when it comes to perfume and prefer very crisp, clean scents. I am fortunate enough to have received a small sample sized bottle along with a purchase I made but I will definitely not be buying another bottle when I run out. Like I said before. Although this scent is not for me it would be perfect for the ladies that like a sweet powdery scent that lasts all day. -

This perfume has a youthful exuberance with subdued undertones therefore making the title fit the scent profile. Salvatore Ferragamo's Signorina has a light floral scent alongside a fruity melody. I find the fruity scent to be the dominant of the two making it slightly sweeter smelling than I personally like. My preference is a perfume with a more crisp clean scent. Also I find the scent seems to dissipate quickly on my skin and I need to reapply during the day. That is not something that bothers me since most perfumes I have tried seem to be like this on my skin. Although this was not the most favorable perfume for me it's still one I like to wear on occassion. I like that it has a very light scent that is not overpowering. Although it is an ok scent it is not my ideal scent and for that reason I won't repurchase once the bottle is empty. This would be better suited towards someone that enjoys a fruity send with a light floral undertones. -

Although this product advertises itself as a gel cream I find it to be more like a cream texture. It does have a slight scent but it disappears soon after applying it to your skin. Immediately after applying it does seem to sit on the skin. After a minute or two however it does absorb and I feel like my skin is left looking slightly plumper and hydrated. I'm unsure if it has to do with the thermal water but I also feel my skin looks more bright and even toned. My normal to combination skin is left feeling well hydrated and appears softer and smoother well. I really like that it does not leave my skin looking oily making it a great day time gel cream. -

I absolutely love Versace Eros Pour Femmes. It has a light clean scent which is exactly what I like. When I first apply it to my inner wristsI find the citrus scent to be more dominant but as the floral undertones become more apparent the floral nuances change the characteristics in a positive way. This is a timeless scent that makes me feel extremely feminine. I find I need to reapply later on in the day as the scent seems to fade away but I still really like it and wear it often. -

I love all four colors in this quad. Included are two light colored purples and two darker shades of purple. I personally prefer the lightest color that is such a pale colored purple that it almost looks pink. These colors really make my brown eyes pop. They can be worn alone or you can combine them for different looks. All the colors in this quad are matte which was exactly what I was looking for. I don't advise using the eye sponge applicator that comes included because it doesnt apply the eyeshadow evenly. When I used my own personal brush it went on nicely. It might not have the best color pay off and didn't blend as easy as some other quads but still good in my opinion. -

I received a small travel size of Tarte Amazonian Clay Blush in Paarty with a purchase I made and I have to say I was a little bit worried. The color looked very dark for my fair skin tone. I decided to give it a try and I'm so glad I did. This blush looked very natural which is exactly what I want in a blush. In fact it didn't look like I was wearing blush at all but made me look like I had naturally rosy cheeks. If you would want a more dramatic look you would just need to apply more. I went in very light with my blush brush to get the look I wanted. I am very happy with this blush and will definitely try it in other colors. It is selling for 35$ at Sephora for the full size and well worth it in my opinion. Since Amazonian clay also has benefits for the skin I think it makes this blush even more appealing. I definitely recommend it. -

The Real Techniques setting brush is extremely lightweight and easy to grip and the fact that the body of this brush is bright pink makes it extremely easy to find when mixed in with my other brushes. The bristles are soft and the few times I have used it they did not fall out at all. I have only used it to apply Bare Minerals translucent powder but I have to say it lightly and evenly distributed the powder and left my makeup looking absolutely flawless. I was fortunate enough to get this in my Chick Advisor Premium package and will definitely be looking into getting more. -

Yves Rocher Blackberries Hand Cream absorbs quickly and leaves my hands feeling soft and smooth. It doesn't sit on the skin like some other hand creams tend to do. There's nothing more annoying than touching my cell phone screen and tablet screen and seeing smudges left behind on the screen. Thankfully for the price this cream doesn't do that. This cream absorbs into the skin and hydrates like it's supposed to as opposed to sitting on top. It has a light blackberry scent that is not overly sweet which is great in my opinion because I find overly sweet scents unappealing. Another great thing about this hand cream is it's inexpensive. In my opinion it works well and it doesn't break the bank. -

I recently tried this primerand it was completely different than what I was used to. I felt that it was more of a moisturizer than a primer. The texture was creamy and left my skin feeling slightly tacky.That could be because I have normal to combination skin. This primer would probably be better suited towards those with dry skin. I personally prefer a tinted primer like Porefessional. So far that is my go to primer. I more often than not wear it on its own. I found this primer could not be worn alone. I seen no improvement in the look of my skin at all. I wore this with a tinted moisturizer and didn't find it stayed on all that much better than if I had worn it on its own. I really wanted to like it since it had great reviews but I guess it just wasn't for me. This primer is infused with coconut water and therefore does have a coconut scent which might be appealing to some. I personally didn't like it. If you are looking for a silicone free primer you may want to give this primer a try. Although I didn't love this primer I can say it did leave me with a nice youthful dewy look. I prefer a dewy look to matte because in my opinion it looks more natural. -
