This is a beautiful, non-lathering cleansing cream. Typical body washes usually leave my skin dry and itchy. This made my skin feel super soft, hydrated and smelling amazing. The sweet almond scent does linger on your skin for a good amount of time after, which I was impressed with.

Lancôme Rénergie H.C.F. Triple Serum Eye

This is an eye serum made of three formulas (a Hyaluronic Acid and Peptide gel-serum, a serum-emulsion with Vitamin C derivative and Niacinamide, and a cream-serum with Vitamin F) that pump out separately from the bottle and you mix together before applying. It is supposed to target signs of aging.
According to the box and the website, it looks like each formula should come out of a separate hole on the main pump; however, I have only been getting product out of 2 of the 3 holes, which is very disappointing. I believe I have not been getting the Vit C/Niacinamide emulsion.
What I have tried seems fairly hydrating and smoothing. It has tiny light reflecting particles in it to help brighten the eye area. It does have a fairly strong perfume like fragrance. I don’t mind it, but I don’t think it’s necessary for an eye serum.

I quite enjoy this lotion. My hands can get quite dry, so I like that this is fragrance free and doesn’t irritate my skin. My skin feels instantly softened and nourished after using this. My only complaint is that it doesn’t completely sink into the skin and stays tacky for quite a while after applying.

This product was just ok for me. It doesn’t really feel like a body wash. I could not get much of a lather using my hands. It felt more like washing myself with lotion. My skin did not feel cleansed or more nourished or hydrated using this. I don’t have sensitive skin, so perhaps someone who does would see more of a difference in their skin and enjoy this more.

This is a lightweight gel serum that includes niacinamide, echinacea and adaptogenic ashwaghanda. It claims to nourish the skin’s foundation, support barrier function, and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
This is a really nice serum. It has a light citrus herbal scent. I love the texture of it. A little goes a long way - I only need about 3-4 drops for my face and neck. It absorbs into the skin very nicely. It makes my skin feel soft, hydrated and healthy. My skin also looks plump and smooth after using.
If you are looking to splurge on a luxury serum, I definitely recommend this.

This is a watery serum that includes triple weight hyaluronic acid. It claims to moisturize and leave the skin looking radiant, smooth and hydrated.
I have not used a serum that makes my skin look and feel as instantly smooth and soft as this does. It absorbs into the skin quite quickly. I have to make sure my skin is damp when applying, and to apply moisturizer on right after, or it can make my skin feel a bit tight. I am in a dry climate though, so this does happen sometimes with hyaluronic acid serums.
If you are looking to splurge on a luxury serum, I definitely recommend this.

These patches work exactly as advertised. They are single use, clear patches, and the pack comes with both large and small sizes. They stick on extremely well. While they are on, they are barely noticeable. I definitely noticed a difference in the appearance and size of my blemishes after using these patches overnight.

This dry shampoo is made with rice starch, charcoal and baking soda. It has a jasmine and patchouli fragrance to promote relaxation, as it is to be used at night before going to bed.
I really like this product. I have enjoyed other dry shampoos from Batiste and this is no exception. I love how light weight this product is. It does not make your hair feel weighed down or full of product. I used it before bed as directed, and in the morning my hair looked and felt clean and refreshed. This product is super easy to use and effective at removing oil. I do enjoy the scent of this, although it is a little strong. If you’re sensitive to fragrance, this is not going to be for you.
I am very happy that I was able to test this product and am excited to continue to use it as part of my hair routine.
