The scent is clean & fresh (I love the smell of tea tree - vetiver is a new one for me, but compliments it so well.
This conditioner does not weigh your hair down, or leave it full of residue. it rinses clean, while leaving your hair soft and conditioned.
I usually stay away from commercial conditioners because they often leave my hair greasy (sometimes i even have to shampoo AFTER i condition in order to get the residue out - kind of defeats the purpose!).
Will definitely be purchasing this again :)

I received this as part of the ChickAdvisor Review Club and used it immediately. I typically don't use a standard 'body wash' (I like Dr. Bronners castile soap) but this one is amazing! light, refreshing & amazing clean scent (the ingredients aren't bad either!) I will definitely be using the rest of the bottle and buying another! -

I have only recently started 'caring' about the products i use on my hair, in the sense that i was naive that my shampoo may not be the best for my hair type (long, thick, curly hair!)! This was perfect timing to receive this collection as part of the ChickAdvisor Review Club - I have been using for over a week now, and although there has been a bit of an adjustment period for my hair with regards to not using a heavy shampoo that strips your hair of all its natural oils, i have received numerous compliments about the health of my hair, the natural curl is coming back and i LOVE THE SCENT!! I will definitely be using the rest of the product, and will definitely be purchasing again! -

I received this as part of the chick Advisor review club, along with the shampoo.
The shampoo was not effective in combatting dandruff, but the conditioner is just that - conditioner... it was effective in moisturizing my hair and leaving it soft - mainly all things conditioners are supposed to do... it honestly reminded me of every single other Dove conditioner - just with 'Derma+Care' added to the label...smell is great, and is an effective conditioner.

I was sent this shampoo as part of the chick advisor review club, and was really excited to try it as my scalp is pretty dry and flakey during these winter months. I didn't receive it until late, so wanted to give it a few washes to really test it before posting my review.. I so badly wanted to love it, and even went so far as to compare all ingredients between my regular go-to (Head & Shoulders) and the Dove... pretty identical in terms of ingredients, same amount of active ingredient as well - so i thought it must work! I swapped out my regular shampoo for this, and tried it on 2 separate occasions... It seems to have made my dandruff worse!!
The smell, lather, consistency - all great, but overall effectiveness in combatting dandruff just wasn't there.

I had heard that this product was a good replacement for setting spray for makeup. I have always used either Urban Decay setting spray, or MAC Fix+ and I have completely eliminated all of them from my routine, and replaced with this rose water!
In a year i have gone through 2 8oz bottles... perfect for a mid-day pick me up and refresher, spritz on after cleansing at night, and to set makeup during the day!

I am not the most patient person so a quick dry top coat is always my go-to but gave this one a fair shot for the test!
Although i had to wait longer to dry, it did give a nice shine.
Not sure if i would use this top coat again as it seems to do the same as seche vite, just takes way longer to fully dry!

I received the three products to try from the ChickAdvisor review club.
Im usually not one for base coats as i haven't had much luck with them in the past, and always seemed like an unnecessary step.
I let the base coat dry for a bit longer than usual, and found that when i applied the first layer of polish, it almost wiped away some of the base coat - and diluted the colour.
Overall it seems to do the trick as my polish hasn't started to chip after 3 days!

I received the Crimson Like it Hot shade, plus base & top coat to try from ChickAdvisor. I've used CND polishes in the past and always liked the application, but this particular one seemed better! intense colour pay off, easy application. I typically like the flatter/wider brushes for applying polish, but even though this one is the standard brush, it applied beautifully!
I let each layer dry for probably 10 mins or so before applying the next coat (which took longer than im used to when using a quick dry top coat) but i've had it on for 3 days now and no chipping! (my polish will usually only stay 'perfect' for 1-2 days without chipping - hands in hot water a lot does not help!).
All in all i loved this polish and will be purchasing additional shades!
Thanks ChickAdvisor!

Jergens Natural Glow 3 Days to Glow

I was a die-hard St. Tropez self tanner user until i went to replace my latest bottle, and got a little tired of the $50+ price tag (for which the bottle does not last as long as i would like!) and decided to give this a try.
That was 2 months ago and i am on my 3rd bottle... i can't get enough! No staining, no 'tanning smell', and great moisturizer!
For the record, i can be very 'pastey' and working in an office doesn't allow for a lot of sun exposure through the summer, so to have friends comment 'WOW you're TANNED!' is amazing, and only from using this product!! Beautiful tan, no 'orange' tinge, love love love!!!
