Juice Beauty Green Apple Peel - Full Strength Exfoliating Mask helps to brighten and even out your skin's tone and texture with AHAs and BHAs while nourishing it with Aloe and vitamins C & E.
It has a gel-like texture which gives a slight cooling sensation when first applied and has an aroma that reminds me of apple cider.
I have combination/dry skin with signs of aging and while using my skin did start to feel warm and tingly after 4-5 minutes. I kept this peel on for the recommended 10 minutes and afterwards, washed it off using a gentle cleanser.
I noticed a bit of redness (which is common) in some areas of my skin which disappeared after a few hours. Upon waking up in the morning my skin looked brighter and felt so soft and smooth.
It didn't magically remove all my fine lines and wrinkles after just one use, but I'll be using this on a weekly basis to experience the full benefits.

Clarins Double Serum contains 21 plant extracts which helps to rejuvenate, protect and hydrate your skin while improving the tone and texture.
This serum has a unique blend of ingredients including Turmeric, Beautyberry, Leaf of Life, and Orthosiphon (just to name a few). It has a lovely floral fragrance and the idea of combining two potent serums into one, has me intrigued.
Since there are two serums, there are also two different textures. When opening the packet there was a fair amount of the dark orange oil-like serum, with about two drops of clear liquid. They easily combined by rubbing my hands together and applied effortlessly onto my skin.
This serum only took a few seconds to completely absorb, and there was no greasy or tacky residue afterwards. After just a few days of using, I noticed much softer feeling skin. I would however love to try the full version to experience all the benefits.

This sand is so much fun to play with. Between digging for gems and creating his own seashells, this is one toy that keeps his creativity and imagination going for hours. The glitter gives this sand a magical touch and the best part is it doesn't end up all over the house! The sand itself has a unique, satisfying feel which is soft, easily mouldable and doesn't dry out if you forget to close it properly.
It comes in a cute sand castle container and includes a shovel, mermaid tool, and gems that you can hide and search for. The bottom (lid) has seashell moulds and once you're done playing, everything can be packed back into the container for easy clean up.
It's a great way to bring the beach to your home throughout the year and is perfect for the whole family to play with.

My husband had the opportunity to try Irish Spring Face + Body Wash in Sage & Cedar Scent. Made without parabens and phthalates, this was keeps your skin smelling fresh and feeling moisturized for up to 24 hours.
This wash has a unique woodsy/floral scent yet has the same fresh undertones that Irish Spring is known for. It comes in a larger sized bottle and the new design gives this a sense of sophistication.
The gel format lathers nicely, rinses off easily and leaves your skin feeling refreshed, clean and hydrated. We both really enjoyed the scent (I almost want to use it myself) and love that it lasts throughout the day.
My husband enjoys using this, and is impressed with the upgrade to this classic body wash.

I love the length and volume Lash Sensational Sky High mascara gave my lashes!
I tried the "washable" version in shade very black and it acted very much like my waterproof mascaras - only easier to remove. There was no flaking or smudging and by the end of my day, this mascara looked just as great as when I first applied it.
As someone who has very short and sparse lashes, this gave noticeable volume and length without clumping. It's easily buildable, doesn't feel heavy and the bristles helped separate each lash beautifully.
I'm really impressed with how amazing my lashes look after using this!

I've recently found a new love for toners but it's been hard to find one that doesn't dry out my skin.
Thayers Witch Hazel Toner with Aloe is a beautifully formulated product which is alcohol free, cruelty free and unscented. This toner helps to improve the tone and texture of your skin while giving it a natural looking glow and best of all it doesn't dry out my skin!
It is made with organic Aloe Vera and Witch Hazel which perfectly hydrates and soothes my skin while leaving it looking and feeling rejuvenated. It drys quickly, doesn't leave any tacky residue behind and I've already started to see an improvement in the look of my pores and overall texture. This is a perfect base to my skincare routine and love that this makes my skin feel soft and supple even before my moisturizer.
I've been using this every day for the past week and I couldnt imagine starting my day without it.

Suitable for all skin types, this all-in-one micellar water removes makeup like a dream. There's absolutely no irritation and doesn't dry out my skin.
For the days that I don't wear makeup, I was really surprised at how much dirt and debris came off my skin when using this at the end of the day.
I love that it's alcohol, fragrance and oil-free and doesn't need to be rinsed off. It dries quickly without leaving behind any residue and after using this for about a week my skin is glowing!
This is my favourite micellar water of theirs and I've tried quite a few and ill be keeping this as apart of my skincare/makeup routine.

This mask is really easy to apply and since the serum has a creamy texture, it stays put without slipping off. Once you take the mask off, there's quite a bit of excess serum which can be massaged into your skin or simply wiped off.
After using, I noticed my complexion was instantly glowing. My skin looked so much brighter and felt nourished from the inside out. I love how hydrated and soft my skin felt afterwards and it worked wonders on my dry skin.

I was recently looking for recommendations for something to remove my waterproof makeup so I was really happy to give this a try. It worked wonders on removing all my makeup (yes, even waterproof eye makeup) without much effort and was extremely gentle on all areas of my skin.
This oil itself has a moderately thick texture which felt luxurious to use. It created a gentle foam when activated with water and easily washed off without leaving an oily residue behind. After cleansing, this product left my skin feeling soft, hydrated and nourished.

I'm always happy when Batiste comes out with something new. This dry shampoo helps to rid my hair of its greasy looking roots while leaving it feeling and looking soft, bouncy and more voluminous. It's really easy to use and doesn't leave a chalky residue behind after using. The scent is light and smells fantastic, I do however wish it lasted more than a few hours though. I'm really impressed that they have made this vegan and it uses less packaging than their other products. This is perfect for busy days when I'm in-between washes and I'm definitely going to add this to my Batiste rotation. -
