I always keep a bag of these in my freezer. They are so convenient for those days when you need to make dinner quickly. I know the instructions say to put them in a preheated oven, but I usually put them in while the oven is heating up, and they are literally done by the time the oven reaches the needed temperature. They are thin and crunchy. Just make sure none is left, leftover ones don't taste good (but again, what fries do). -

I am sorry to say, unlike other products from NIVEA Q10 line, this one didn't work for me. I am 30 and have fine lines around my eyes that started a appearing a few years ago (I have dry skin, and people with dry skin start getting wrinkles earlier). I was hoping this cream would help minimize them. I've been using it for a few months, day and night. It did provide nice moisture, it sinks in quickly, but that was it for me. No effect whatsoever. -

I have been stealing this cream from my mum even when I was very young, too young for anti-wrinkle care. It is a very rich cream, so for someone with dry skin like mine it is very helpful. Now that I turned 30 it became my staple product - it still works to make my skin plump and moisturized. I just love it! -
NIVEA Q10plus Anti-Wrinkle Serum Pearls

I have used this serum for a few days now, morning and evening between toner and moisturizer. I need about 2 pumps to cover my whole face and neck, so I can see it lasting long. Unlike some other serums I have used, this one is quite rich. The texture is a bit weird when you pump it out, you can see smashed pearls in some sort of liquid, but it sinks into the skin easily. It didn't leave my skin sticky or greasy. I have combination skin, with extra dry cheeks, and it almost felt like I didn't even need a moisturizer after the serum, yet it didn't make my T-zone shiny. I can not say how much it helps with wrinkles though, since I believe any anti-wrinkle product needs to be used for 3-4 weeks before the effects are visible. Usually people with dry skin do get wrinkles more easily, and since this is very moisturizing it can at least help to prevent them. If it turns out to help with wrinkles, I will purchase it again, if not I might use it in the winter months as an additional moisturizing step.
I have received this serum for free as part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club!

I got this lotion in my first ChickAdvisor free pack for review. I tried it literally minutes after receiving it. I have tried the original (dark blue) version of this lotion before, and have to say that this one seems almost the same to me, except that it has a different smell. It definitely didn't leave any residue on my skin after rinsing, although the bottom of my shower was very slippery (they caution you about this on the packaging). It was very convenient to use. My skin is extremely dry and I did feel it was moisturized, but it felt like I needed deeper moisturizing the next day. I recommend you to only pat dry your skin. I can see myself using this lotion more in the summer, when I don't need deep moisturizing, or occasionally during other seasons, when I need something quick. I will definitely repurchase, since it is good to have it on hand for those days when you need something quick, or it is too hot for anything that would make your skin sticky. I think this might work very well for people with oily skin. -

I am quite a skinny person with dry skin, so I never considered using dusting powders, until I discovered Lush and gained some weight. Since getting to the normal weight, my thighs started rubbing at each other in the summer, when it's too hot and I sweat. I got this powder just for that issue alone - I rub it into any part of my body that gets wet and rubs, and it stays nice and dry all day. The smell is not too heavy, too, which I always appreciate. And the bottle will last me forever! -

I cannot say enough how much I like everything this company makes. This is like Kinder chocolate for grown-ups. Just sweet enough to ease your cravings, but not too sweet to give you a sugar rush. I usually just eat half of it, and it's enough for me (although it is hard to control myself). It's perfectly creamy inside (the cream itself is not overly sweet, with this crispy wafer around, and light layer of sweet milky chocolate...pure heaven. -

I have read long time ago that lavender smell can aid with migraines, and boy how I have strong ones. I got this little stick from Rocky Mountain because I liked how you can sniff it directly from the packaging, or rub it onto your temples/wrists/under nose. I loved it. In addition to my regular migraine "treatments", this stick helps to get rid of them more quickly. It is packaged like a slightly larger lip balm, so it is convenient to carry in my purse in case I get a migraine while at work. And I have it over a year now, and still haven't finished it. Get it! -
L'Occitane Divine Cream

Since I regularly shop at L'occitane, I get lots of samples of this cream, but lately I got a bigger non-foil sample (8 ml). I tried it in conjunction with other Divine/Immortele products (oil, eye cream, face cleaner). Since my skin is ultimately dry during Canadian winter, I tried many things to get it looking nice and radiant, and get rid of dry spots, and have to admit this is the only thing that worked. The 8 ml sample lasted about 2 weeks for me, applying it multiple times per day, and my skin was not dry at all while I was using it. Too bad it is so expensive... -

I tried this peel in Ole Henrickson 3-step program - scrub, peel, mask. I have quite sensitive dry skin, but although this did burn a little bit (it's a chemical peel after all), it was ok, especially after applying the chamomile soothing mask on top of it. My skin does look better, but I am sure I need more than one treatment to get my pores smaller and clean them up more. However, it worked quite well, and did leave my skin red for too long. -
