I tried the Bourjois twist up the volume mascara and was initially pleased with the results. I thought the twistable wand was a neat idea, however I found that the mascara got clumpy within just a couple uses. I’m not sure if maybe wiping it down before putting it away might help with the clumps, but who has time for that?? Overall I really liked the results at the start and then was less impressed shortly after. I would probably buy this again for the right price, but I wouldn’t pay the full price for it. -

I am absolutely obsessed with the Neutrogena Hydro Boost line and this body balm is no exception. It is almost scent free, but the tiny amount of smell is light and fresh and perfect. The texture is incredible, and it goes on almost like air, leaving zero greasiness behind. The balm moisturizes for the day for sure - I don’t know about the 24 hour claim it makes, but it does an incredible job. This line is the best moisturizer I have ever used and this particular product is amazing. -

I am always looking for hair products to make my wavy hair look more beachy and less frizzy. This Joico hair texturizer did a great job of taking the frizz, however it did make my hair feel a bit straw like. The smell was a bit too chemical for my tastes as well. Overall I liked the results but the finer details were a bit lacking. I will buy this again for the right price. -

I have never tried the Clarins lip stain before and now I am completely hooked. I can’t wait to go out and buy a ton more colours. It feels so light on - almost like I’m wearing no lip colour. The colour is vibrant and lasts forever - with zero flakiness or dryness. It’s magical! -

I received this product to try for free in exchange for my honest review - and I was quite pleased! Breyers Delights Raspberry Fudge ice cream is only 90 calories a serving (which is only 1/4 of the tub, and since no one actually only eats that much, that’s the equivalent of 360 calories for the entire tub). I didn’t have high expectations - however it was quite tasty. The raspberry flavour was prevalent without being too sweet, and the fudge was a nice break. The texture was a bit on the icy side, as I expect from lower calorie ice cream, however it was still nice and smooth. Overall I will purchase this again when I want a treat without the calories. -

I received this Aveeno peel off face mask as part of a promotion in exchange for my honest review. I quite liked it. I love a good peel off face mask! The smell was minimal and the mask went on my face smoothly and easily with minimal mess. I relaxed while the mask did it’s work - and while it dried my face did feel somewhat pinched and tight as is the norm with peel off masks. When I removed the mask, however, my face felt smooth and moisturized.
I will likely purchase this mask again - I found it effective and it was a nice way to relax and unwind!

I received this overnight face mask for free to try and review, and I was so excited! An overnight mask??? Yes please!
The applicator thing on the packaging is different - it’s nice to be able to apply the mask without touching it, although I found it a bit tricky to navigate around my nose and eyebrows. I kept having to apply more to these areas. The mask itself is light and didn’t make my skin feel pinched like masks generally do to me. However, the instant I put it on my eyes started to water uncontrollably and wouldn’t stop. And I definitely didn’t get any in my eyes!
The next morning when I washed off the mask, my skin did feel nice and smooth, however my eyes continued to water.
I tried the mask again the following night, this time avoiding anywhere that could get near my eyes at all to the same end.
Perhaps I had a reaction to this mask, but I will not purchase this again because of the eye watering problem.

I received the Aveeno Maxglow infusion drops to try for free as part of a promotion. I tried it both on its own as well as combined with moisturizer in the morning as suggested by the instructions. On its own two drops in the palm of my hand was plenty - maybe even a bit much as I ended up with some excess on my hands. It felt fairly greasy initially but absorbed quickly. My skin felt very smooth and moisturized following, and that feeling lasted most of the day (although not into the next day as promised on the package). When I combined it with moisturizer, however, I really didn’t notice any improvement. After a few days of using this, I found my skin to be softer and looked brighter.
I will likely purchase this product again in the future, but won’t be using it combined with moisturizer.

When I first received this item for free to review, I figured it would just be another body lotion. I was SO wrong. This Neutrogena Hydro Boost Body Gel is the best....it smells nice and light and fresh. It’s like putting water on your skin - immediately absorbs, doesn’t feel even slightly greasy, and the best part is it moisturizes better than any of my traditional lotions. I’m obsessed. I will purchase this again and again! -
