Wearing black today? navy? dark clothes... any color other than white? Then find a different deodorant! After my first day wearing it I discovered one must put it on after you get dressed to avoid the zebra stripes along your side. But that didn't entirely fix the problem. This stuff balled up under my arms, fell off and left lovely white marks on the inside of the arm of my shirt, or fell off and i'd find it all over myself (if I wore a sleeveless top).
As for testing it's effectiveness. I went hiking, kayaking, and climbing and I honestly felt the need to re apply halfway through these adventures. I think it all balled up and fell off leaving me feeling clammy and stinky. Unfortunately I don't have a positive experience with this product, it just didn't work for my body in any way shape or form which makes me sad as i honestly really love Nivea's scent.

I really liked these face wipes! They have a light scent, removed all my makeup, they didn't dry out and they also didn't have a ton of liquid in the bag.I always find that facial wipes in bags have this issue where the ones on top are dry and the ones on the bottom are saturated with liquid. Not these ones! They were the right amount of moisture throughout the bag. I used them 7 days in a row, I had no problems with breaking out, they were gentile and left my skin fresh, smooth and clean. No residue feel at all. -

I was unsure about this product. I don't understand it's purpose, it says an all in one so I used it instead of my usual face wash for one full week without using any other of my usual products. It's a thick, milky colored product. The design of the bottle makes me think I'm suppose to wash my face with it, the consistency of the lotion (and the name lotion) makes me think I rub it in and leave it, directions say rub it in and wipe it off. So. What I did, was I'd remove my makeup, shower as usual but rub this into my face, let it sit while I washed my hair and then rinsed it off. It is super hydrating. My face was incredibly smooth, but I didn't have that fresh clean feeling I usually did as I wash my face. It does remove all traces of any left over makeup which I felt was a plus. I did have some issues with some pimples popping up along my jaw line, which is unusual for me. Not saying it was caused by this, but it cleared up when I switched back to my normal face routine. All in all, it has some upsides (smooth skin, removes makeup) but I was less than impressed by how it didn't leave my face feeling fresh. I think it needs to be clearer as to what it is exactly. It's advertised as an all in one... so I assumed I could wash and moisturize my face all at the same time. Maybe that is what it's suppose to be, but this hasn't been my favorite product in accomplishing that. -
Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn
What I liked most about this book is that I hated all the characters. Which sounds ridiculous, but you know what, if I'm still reading about people that I really don't like.., that must mean it's a good story right? It was full of twists and turns... +
What I liked most about this book is that I hated all the characters. Which sounds ridiculous, but you know what, if I'm still reading about people that I really don't like.., that must mean it's a good story right? It was full of twists and turns and is one of those stories that doesn't end the way you want it to, or ever thought it would really. Skip the movie version and treat yourself to the book (at least read the book before you go to the movie!) -
Vaseline Intensive Care Men Repairing Moisture Unscented Body & Face Lotion

My husband was digging into my moisturizers so I went out on a mission to find him his own! I like that this has a slightly masculine scent without being in your face with being a lumberjack or what have you. My husband has left me and my girly smelling moisturizers behind and has been using this stuff regularly. He likes how light it is, doesn't irritate his face after shaving and the pump (as silly as it is) makes him happy. -

Once I found this lip gloss, I stopped buying any other kind. I found the perfect one! It's liquid, but not sticky, cinnamon is my FAVORITE and it's so unheard of to have it as lip gloss flavors, which is ridiculous. It lasts forever, freshens your breath, and has that lovely minty tingle. It is a strong scent, and not for everyone (that's what the lemon option is for.. my husband loves that one!) My only complaint about it is that if it gets really hot it seems to "goo" in the cap. I try to keep it clean and tidy, but I think that will forever be a problem with any liquid lip products. -

The different shape of this lip balm is what sold me on getting one. But after getting it home and giving it a try for a few days that is where my fondness of it stopped. It doesn't do anything for my lips, if anything they feel like they've been soaking in water and have become raisins and extremely peely. It's awful. The scents/flavors are disappointing and upon further investigation the little ball that I once thought was a neat way to keep lip gloss is actually not functional. Ever walk around with a ball in your pocket? Exactly. I'd skip this one and go with an old faithful. -

I really wanted to love this product. My sister in law has a bee hive and they are just the coolest creatures. So in the spirit of saving the bee's I wanted to try this out. It is a decent lip balm, but for whatever reason it makes my lips itchy (I make lip balm from beeswax from the hive and I have no issues). I like the smell, and I like the tingle from the peppermint it's a shame it irritates my lips. -

This smell is amazing! Imagine the freshest of peaches... that is exactly what it smells like. I love how clean I feel without feeling dried out. My husband even sneaks into my stash. Regular price is kind of steep for me.. however I always wait for the sales. I usually load up on these when they go on sale at the end of the summer.. (even better when you can combine with a body shop special like buy 3 get 3 free!) They only seem to run this scent in the summer, so when you see it grab them! Our store is always out of stock. -

I love this smell! My problem with this product was it was really weird going on my skin. It was chunky, and felt almost gritty when I was rubbing it in. It does soak in and leaves my skin soft and the delightful scent, but the texture of it is important to me. It's not something I would buy again unless they re-evaluated the formula. -
