I was quite excited to try this ingrown rescue kit. The skin on my legs are always dry so I do get ingrowns often. Here are my thoughts on each individual item
Ingrown Rescue Soap - This soap is very nice to use. It has a strong scent of tea tree but i dont mind because the benefits of tea tree are incredible. This soap is gentle enough to use everyday and leaves my skin feeling super clean.
Konjac Sponge - You definitely need a light hand when using this or you are going to scratch the crap out of your skin. It does do a good job of removing the dead skin which definitely helps to prevent more ingrowns. The only thing i dont like about this is that it is a hard "sponge" and it is very porous so dead skin and water can get in there and you have no way of squeezing or cleaning it properly. I wouldn't consider this a continuous use sponge.
Uktra Soothe Oil - I love using a good body oil on my skin, especially after shaving and this has some good ingredients in it but I wasnt a fan of the smell. The scent is hard to explain but it almost smelled like the oil was old or something. So I stuck with my usual bosy oil.
Overall I like the idea of this kit but I think for hygenic reasons they need to change there sponge so that you can properly clean it. The oil is probably just me being picky with scents but I didnt like it. The soap on the other hand was lovely!

My husbabd and I were so excited to try this ice cream. We love maple flavour and Chapman's. Unfortunately we were quite disappointed by this ice cream 😥 That maple flavoured centre was so good!!! But it didn't make up for the vanilla ice cream that literally had no flavour and I mean absolutely no flavour.
It was ice flavoured ice cream, there wasn't even a hint of vanilla. We have always been a Chapman's Ice cream family and their regular vanilla ice cream is delicious so I don't know why there was no flavour in this vanilla.

This micellar water has a very strong.I am someone who doesnt mind fragrance in my skincare products this fragrance is too atrong for me.
Texture
This Micellar "Water" has the exact texture of water
My Thoughts and Experience
I dont use micellar water a lot. I mainly use it to fix up makeup, or if Im at home (without makeup on) and doing a lot to the point I get kinda sweaty I will wipe my face down with micellar water on a cotton pad and then apply a toner. I didnt notice the fragrance until wiping down my face the one day. It smelled like I sprayed perfume on a cotton pad and was rubbing it on my face and then within 30 seconds my skin started to burn and turned red. I immediately splashed cool water on my face and had to run and grab my cleanser to wash it off. I dont have sensitive skin, I actually have very resilient skin. So I looked up the ingredients list online and the only thing that stood out to me is that fragrance was only the 8th ingredient on the list. Fragrance was higher than both key ingredients. So after having that reaction I have only used it tqice to fix a quick makeup mistake, but I won't be using it to wipe my face with anymore.
So I will be giving this Micellar Water 1/5⭐'s
I honestly cant say that I would recommend this to anyone

This eye cream is slightly thicker than most eye creams eye have used. Even with it being on the thicker side it still glides nicely across the skin.
My Thoughts and Experience
I really like the simple ingredients in this eye cream. The skin around my eyes is definitely more hydrated and smooth since using this cream. My only issue with this eye cream is that it creates a thick white cast that takes a lot of patting to get it to absorb i to the skin. Once absorbed my eyes feel sticky for a few minutes until it fully absorbs. If you just rub the cream around your eyes the white cast will not go away, you absolutely have to gently pat it into the skin. At first I thought it was because I was applying it too soon after applying my toner so my skin was still damp but if you you apply it on dry skin the white cast is worse and takes longer to absorb.
Overall i enjoy the added moisture my skin has but it is kind of a pain in the butt to pat it into my skin for 5 minutes every time I apply it.
If you are looking for a good hydrating eye cream and you arent worried about application time then you should definitely try this, as I guarantee it will do a great job at hydrating the skin.

I have been an esthetician for 14 years which translates to I have done A LOT of waxing and used A LOT of different types and brands of wax. I wax myself at home all the time as it is, so i was excited to try a new wax brand.
Before I yried the wax I opened the little booklet that comes with the wax. One thing I did not like when reading the instructions is that it tells you tonapply the wax in the opposite direction of the hair growth. This is not the way you are supposed to apply wax. You awlays apply in the same direction as the hair grows and remove the wax in the opposite direction of hair growth. The wax doesn't properly adhere to the hairs if you go the opposite way.
Parissa wax is a very nice wax, it is super gentle on the skin and grabs onto the hairs nicely too. I had no irritation and didnt experience any redness other than what you normally get fron waxing. The resness was gone withing 20 minutes. There was barely any wax residue after and the Ultra Soothe Oil removed any wax that was left behind and left my skin so soft and obviously smooth.
Overall this is a very good wax that does a great job. The only complaint I have is that I wish the container could go into a wax warmer insyead of using the microwave. You have to be so careful when it comes to the temperature of the wax when it comes out of the microwave. I have seen too many burns from wax that was too hot.
I also wish they would fix the the instructions on applying the wax.

This is a very gentle cleanser that produces a small amount of foam. My skin feels nice and clean after but I definitely didn't notice a difference with the moisture level, or brightness in my skin. So what I dont really like about this cleanser is the key ingredients arent very high up on the ingredient list. Vitamin E is actually the last ingredient. So I could see why this is for sensitive skin as there is nothing in the ingredients list that would irritate the skin, there is also nothing in the ingredients list that wows me either. So overall I dont think this is a product for me. It still gave me a nice clean and I think it would be a great cleanser for those with sensitive skin.
I just personally wouldn't repurchase.

I was completely blown away by this mascara. The wand manages to seperate every lash and leaves your lashes looking fuller and longer!! You don't get any clumps or lashes that are all stuck together. I usually do 2 coats of mascara so I get nice full lashes but after only 1 coat I was completely happy with the way my lashes looked! I think my favourite part of this mascara is the fact that I can go all day without smudging or the mascara flaking.i haven't fully tested it's waterproof capabilities, but it removes easily with a cleansing oil.
I am super impressed with the formula and the fact that I know what 95% of the ingredients are in this mascara. On top of that you can't beat the price!! At $7.50 USD/ $9 CAD I think I have found my new favourite mascara!!
I think I will be trying the whole Kind & Free line!

This perfume almost puts me into a trance everytime I put it on. I instantly smell the pear nectar followed by the lovely aroma of the tobacco flower and cedarwood, then my favourite scent of musk finishes it off and perfectly wraps it all together.

If I am being completely honest I was a little weirded out by the texture of this primer. As i squeezed the product out if the tube I was expecting for a liquid to come out but what i got was not liquid, and obviously it wasn't a solid either. I was like a powder mix with a bit of oil or something. Anyways it was definitely weird at first, but I decided to continue on and started to apply it to my face. As I applied it onto ny skin it turned into a powder form. It was really neat!! Once i finished applying it i gave myself a look in the mirror and i waa absolutely shocked and how amazing my skin looked. You couldn't see the lines on my forehead or the pores on ny nose. I felt like i was using a skin perfecting filter on Snapchat or something, it was unbelievable. I decided to see how it would stand up as a primer so I applied my foundation and did my makeuo as usual. It held up great as a primer and my skin still looked incredible. I have also tried wearing it alone without any foundation or anything and I actually prefer to wear it withiut foundation. I have tried a lot of makeup primers and this one is hand's doen the best inhave ever used! It is $18 cad for 20ml but a little goes a very long way and will have no problem purchasing this again and again. The pictures of me with my makeup on is not using any filters whatsoever and I did not edit the photos either. -
