I got this for free and to be quite honest, it's just taking up space in my bathroom closet. It doesn't seem to hold my hair in place, and i absolutely can't tolerate the smell. It smells like cheap hair spray from back in the days. I really didn't know they still produce such hairsprays. And to make it worse, the smell is strong. On the bright side, it's pretty cheap and doesn't make your hair hard. But for me personally, that's not enough to make a purchase. -

When i received this one for review, i was very skeptical about it - i have a mostly hate relationship with cleansers. My skin does not what to tolerate them. They either overdry it, or clog pores. This one is a different story - it does not contain perfume or other irritants (yes, i checked everything on the ingredient list). It leaves your skin fresh, but not tight and it does a good job of cleaning the impurities. The price is great too - this will be my go-to cleanser from now on. The only thing i didn't quite like is that it's a little "green-washed". Aveeno makes it a point, that it contains natural ingredients -but they are at the very bottom of the list, not enough to do anything. Other than that -great product, try it. Even if you don't like it - you wouldn't cry over the amount of money you spent. -

I received this product for free from Chick advisor. Having sensitive, acne-prone skin, I'm always happy to find a product that can do several things at once. Not layering multiple things helps to not irritate skin as much. I think integrating a physical sunscreen into a moisturizer is brilliant. SPF30 is enough for most people to not worry about photoageing. It doesn't have perfumes or dyes, which is a big advantage for sensitive skin. However, I would go with a higher percentage of zinc oxide to make it even more suitable for irritable skin types. As for drawbacks - I found that it makes my skin a bit oilier, which caused minor breakouts (again, could have been resolved my higher zinc oxide content).
Overall, it's a good moisturizer for sensitive skin, i like that it doesn't have chemical sunscreen, but the price is a bit high for what you get. I don't think I'll buy it again, but definitely it's a very decent product.

I received this product for review together with a few other products from the lavender line, and this is my favorite. It has an amazing smell (I'm not a big fan of lavender, but this one is not annoying at all). It's very gentle, which is important for me, as i have a sensitive scalp and harsh ingredients irritate it. The hair is quite soft after, but it doesn't work wonders - you still need to use a conditioner (not a major drawback for such a decent price). The ingredients are somewhere in between natural products and drug store products -it does have a high contents of essential oils, but still have a few chemicals in it, which is OK for me. As long as it is available at major stores, I will definitely repurchase it (or my husband will, cause he's in love with it!) -

While this conditioner has an amazing smell and a lot of essential oils, it's an example of a bad natural hair product. It leaves my hair dry, like many other natural conditioners; it doesn't make them smoother or easier to brush through. On top of that, the packaging does not work well for this product - the squeezing hole is too small for the creamy texture, you have to press hard and then it blobs all over and you have to clean it up. I'll finish this bottle, but will never buy again, at least this one was free. -

I received this shower gel for free and my family has been using it for the past couple weeks to see if we like it. It has a very pleasant unisex smell, my husband enjoys it as much as I do. It leaves the skin moisturized -it is one of very few gels that don't make me itchy from dryness. It also has a very decent ingredient list. There's a high content of essential oils and not many harsh chemicals (many of which are plant based anyways). While it cannot boast the same pure and organic ingredients as some health store brands, it definitely is a big step from a regular drug store shower gel. This will probably become our go-to product if it's readily available at a drug store. It definitely is worth the price and will satisfy the needs of the whole family. -

As a makeup obsessed girl I tried a wide variety of powders, so rarely something impresses me. And this one is my go-to powder right now. I love everything about it - the packaging is chic and looks amazing on the makeup table, it's also mess-free. The texture is very silky and it's a super-fine milled powder, which means your face will never look made-up. Not even talking about advantages of mineral makeup here. I love to use it more as a setting powder, rather than foundation, as i do have some skin concerns and need a higher coverage. But if you are ok with medium coverage, Nude by Nature powder is all you need.
The only drawback i can think of is the price tag - but this is a luxury product, the quality matches and even supercedes the price. I will definitely but it again and already took a peek of where it's sold. I'll definitely recommend to try it and see for yourself.

I received the brush as part of a free Nude by Nature products kit. It comes in a very handy travel case. The brush itself looks minimalistic, but very stylish. I would characterize is as a non-flat kabuki, rather than a regular powder brush. It's very dense, but the bristles are unbelievably soft! It picks up just the right amount of product. I really tried to make it fail and get a patch of powder on my face, but i couldn't... i do not understand how it distributes the product so evenly on its surface. No matter how bad you are at makeup, you can't do wrong with this brush! I am so happy I have it in my collection. And I'm trying not to write a biased review, but I'm in love with this brush!! -

I believe Nude by nature primer is a really good alternative to all the silicon-based aka pore-clogging primers. I have to say right away, I'm not a big fan or user of foundation primers (as i don't believe they make makeup stay longer), but i tried quite a few. As for Nude by nature primer (which i received for free, by the way) - it does help to even out skin texture a bit, but don't expect too much. If you have extremely large pores as i do, or scars, you'll still be able to see them, though not as clearly. As for this primer's advantages -the texture is very light and not greasy, the smell is also pleasant - quite lemony and natural, not at all overpowering. And the packaging will definitely add chic to your makeup table!
I don't think I'll buy it again, - as i mentioned, I'm not a big fan of primers. But if you are -you probably should test this one, as it's a very decent alternative to some professional brands.

I've been struggling with acne for a while now, and pretty much any product can cause it. This serum I can use even during the worst breakouts, and will see a difference in a day or two. I sometimes even use it as a spot treatment for healing breakouts and it works. One of the very few spot treatments that work. And overall, the quality of my skin approved dramatically. Totally love it, and the price is about 4 times cheaper than other working cosmetics with these ingredients! -
