It had been a very long time since I last used any Dove products so I was very pleased to try it through the Chick Advisor Product Review Club. I had forgotten about how the Dove Original Beauty Cream Bar leaves my skin feeling soft and moisturized. Regular soaps and body washes leave my skin feeling tight and dry after a shower or bath, and I hate spending time moisturizing when I'm in a rush to get out the door. The Dove bar was good for my skin, as I didn't have to moisturize if I didn't have time or feel like it. Also, it rinsed clean every time - so much so that I was able to use it to clean my eyeglasses. Other soaps left a film on my glasses, but the Dove Original Beauty Cream Bar left them spotless and clear. I'll definitely be purchasing the soap again when I finish my second bar, and this is one soap that I will be using to clean not only my skin, but my glasses too! -

From making horse bridles and saddles to making handbags that adorn the arm of nearly every woman around. I have a love and hate relationship with Coach. I love the three Coach bags that I have, which includes the plum coloured Madison Patent Leather Maggie handbag, my most recent purchase. However, I have been very particular about choosing the right purse and not following every trend as it comes along. None of my Coach purses have the big C embroidered or stamped all over the purse. That's just not my style. I prefer something a little more discreet, and thankfully Coach makes handbags for everyone. There is one style for every woman - and man, as they have many wallets and bags designed specifically for men.
If you plan to buy a purse from the Coach Factory Store, be sure to know whether you are buying a handbag made only for sale at the outlets, or if it is one that you could purchase from the regular Coach stores. Many of the purses at the Factory Store are only available at the outlet, and have less resale or investment value.

I have used the Shiseido Energizing Fragrance off and on over the past few years. It is a light and refreshing fragrance that offers a pick-me-up anytime of the day. It leaves your skin feeling and smelling clean and fresh, and energized to take on whatever lies ahead. This fragrance is better suited for daytime because of its light scent. Most women would prefer a heavier scent for evening occasions. I found this fragrance did not last long on my skin, but that may just be my personal body chemistry as most scents do not linger on me. A reasonable pick for someone looking for a light and airy scent that will get them going for the day. -

I have heard many great things about Shiseido products, and have been wanting to give this shampoo and conditioner set a try. Because the product comes with a pump dispenser, it is easy to make sure you use the right amount. One pump works for most lengths, and two pumps if you have longer hair like I do. It is lightly scented, and will leave your hair smelling great. The shampoo and conditioner feel luxurious in your hand, and do wonderful things to your hair. My hair felt instantly transformed, lighter, softer and smoother. It is advertised to provide hair with a shot of moisture so it is targeted to those with dry hair; however, it will work for all. I would definitely recommend this product.
Best place to pick up this item is your local T&T;Supermarket, where it sells for $14.99 for a large bottle. There are also plenty of other beauty products from Asia that you can pick up while you're in the store.

I received the Olay Pore Minimizing Cleanser from a promotion by Olay, and enjoy using it with my Olay Professional Pro-X Cleansing Brush. It helps to keep my face looking its best while keeping my skin soft and smooth. It is gentle enough to use every day. The scent is light and refreshing, and does not leave a cloying scent on my skin. It is priced right, does an excellent job, and well worth giving it a try if you're in the market for a new cleanser. -

The Olay Professional Pro-X Cleansing System is an excellent and affordable alternative to more expensive cleansing brushes like Clarisonic. I have been using this product for about 5 weeks, and have noticed that my face has fewer blemishes. The skin on my cheeks and forehead is much smoother than before, and I have fewer issues with acne. The cleanser that comes with the product works great, but I have used the brush with other non-Olay cleansers and it works just as well. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone looking to upgrade their cleansing ritual without the sizable investment of buying a Clarisonic. -

I like the Goody Ouchless Hair Elastics and use them daily for my ponytails, braids and buns. I like the fact that there is no metal connector that catches and tugs on my hair. However, as others have noted, these elastics do not have a long lifespan. They start to stretch after a few weeks of constant use, and eventually you have to throw them out because they are fully stretched out. Having said that, I still give this product good marks for effectiveness and price, and I would recommend them. -

I received the L'Oreal Professionel Intense Repair Shampoo as part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club, and have been using the product for a couple of weeks. While the smell is pleasant, I found the shampoo left my hair dry and coarse. It's rather unfortunate as the product was supposed to leave my hair soft and moisturized, not dry and feeling brittle. The only way to combat this was to use the accompanying masque or a heavy duty conditioner to add some moisture back. The shampoo is not inexpensive and would not be something that most women would regularly stock in their bathrooms. As much as I would have liked to have liked the product, I found it stripped my hair of moisture and did not deliver the intense repair that it claimed. Sorry, L'Oreal, but I will give this product a pass. -

I received the L'Oreal Professionel Intense Repair Masque as part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club, and have used the product for a couple of weeks. Like many of the previous reviewers, I found the masque to be better than the shampoo as it left my hair feeling soft and smooth. I liked the thickness of the masque and how silky it made my hair once I rinsed it off after leaving it on for 3 to 4 minutes. The price of the products is a bit high, and I am not completely convinced that it is better than other less expensive products on the market. However, it did deliver results for the period that I have used the product so far. -

I received the EOS Smooth Sphere Lip Balm in Summer Fruit flavour as part of a Christmas present, and was very glad to try this new lip balm since I had read a lot about it in various style magazines. While it has done the job of moisturizing my lips and keeping them from drying out too quickly in this winter weather, I haven't noticed any significant improvement in their condition as I have when using other lip balms. The best things going for this product are the lack of phthalates, parabens, gluten and petrolatum, the cute spherical shape of its container, and the ease of application (although you will need to use both hands to unscrew the lid). -
