I did not expect the TRESemme compressed micromist hair spray to be as good as it was.
I always buy hair spray from the salon because I love giving my hair those wavy beach curls.
In light of all the money I've spent on salon quality hairspray, I just can't believe that a non-salon product is just so much better.
My hair doesn't get crunchy but it holds all day long.
And then the next day I can use it all over again, even if I don't shower it out! It's such a light product, but still has a very powerful hold.
The bottle is pretty cool too, because it's really nice to hold, but you could have wrapped it in a cardboard box and I still would love it. It's not about the bottle, it's about the hairspray.
I will be throwing out all my old salon hairsprays and buying more of this. I got the Level 2, so I'm curious to try the other levels as well.

My mother in law snuck a bottle of this into my stocking this year and at first I was like, this is odd. But it was actually a really nice surprise. In a world never lacking in body washes, this one was quite nice. It was super soft going on and it left my skin feeling and smelling really really good. Would absolutely recommend it. -

I recently bought a new painting and went to hang it in my living room. My husband was helping me and he had scuffed up the wall so badly. Our walls are off white and this painting left huge black scuffs all over the walls. The first thing I thought of was to use the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser and I was totally right. It was so easy to use, it took off all the scuffs and it didn't remove any of the existing paint on my wall. It also didn't leave any streaks behind. It was a full clean. I always keep them on hand just in case! -

The Vichy Purete Thermale Skin Renewing Creaming Scrub is great. I use it right after the Vichy gel and that combination leaves my skin so soft. I found I didn't need to use any face moisturizing cream afterwards. The instruction sheet stated to use the scrub about once a week, but I am dying to use it more often.
It doesn't really have a scent- or it doesn't have one that I can identify- it just has a nice light smell.
The scrub has little microbeads in it that lightly exfoliates the skin. It's not harsh at all, it feels like my face is getting a little massage every time I use it.
AND you don't need to use a lot, so that's great. I really love this product and will definitely buy more when I run out.

The Vichy Purete Thermale Waterproof Eye Makeup Remover is just a lovely product. It has no scent and isn't greasy. A lot of my old makeup removers leave a kind of oil around my eye and it's not a pleasant feeling, but the Vichy product didn't do that at all. It was very easy to use. I didn't require a lot of it.
Also, I am a contact lens user and it was no problem! Sometimes you need to press the eye a bit to make sure the makeup remover really gets in everywhere, but the Vichy eye makeup remover was quite powerful so I didn't need to press as hard.
Also, while applying my makeup, I was able to grab a Q-tip and use it as touch up, as I often manage to get mascara on my upper lids. So it was great for touch ups.
I would definitely buy this product. It was great. It does everything I need it to as an eye makeup remover.
The photos I posted were before and after using the product! You'll see that I wear a lot of mascara and it was so easy to take off and it left my eyes feeling so clean!

I was reading the information sheet for the Vichy Purete Thermale Fresh Cleansing gel. It said use it for at least 2 weeks before reviewing and posting. I didn't even have to wait a day to review it. The very first time I used the gel, my skin felt instantly softer. I could not believe it. You don't need a lot of the gel and it goes on so smoothly. As I was washing it off, my skin felt so smooth and so good. And it continued to feel this way all day. I felt like I didn't even need to use moisturizer afterwards.
Also, this product has a very mild clean cucumber scent to it. Absolutely beautiful. It's so refreshing but not overpowering at all. I just love it.
Overall, I am very impressed with this product. At first I was a little bit put off by the price, but considering the quality of this product, I think it's actually a very good deal. I will purchase this in the future, however, I think my first bottle is going to last me a very long time.

The cleansing wipes are so so nice. When I first opened the package and took one out, I though maybe my package had dried up because the cloths weren't super wet, like most cleansing wipes that come out of a resealable package are. I tried it anyway and they were so soft and I realized that I had been using poor quality cleansing wipes, because they don't have to be super wet when they come out of the package.
I love these wipes. They have such a nice fragrance that isn't overpowering and they're not super wet, so you don't need to wait for your face to dry before you can apply your cream or go on with your nighttime ritual.
I've used these every single day since I got them- even when I don't wear make up, they just make my face feel so good and I know that they are taking off any grime from the day.

The NIVEA Express eye make up remover works incredibly well. Compared to my other eye make up removers which I have paid a lot of money for, this product is totally different. Not only does it work super well, but it doesn't leave any residue. So let's say you make a mistake and need to use only a little bit, it doesn't leave behind any oils, so you can just pick up from where you left off and apply make up right away. There is no need to wait!
Although $8.99 seems a bit pricey, it's really such a good product.

I absolutely love this product. I received a sample of this in the mail and I was hooked the moment I tried it and now it's the only product I will use. The little pearls are so cool to apply. It doesn't go on greasy at all. I use it before I go to bed and right when I wake up before I put my makeup on. It has a really nice, light fragrance and I simply cannot buy enough of it. I haven't had the opportunity to try any of the other products, but if they are anything like these pearls, then they are probably amazing.
I recommended this product to my mom and now she's hooked, as well. I would 100% recommend it to anyone.
It does seem a bit pricey at first, but honestly, you're getting what you paid for.

Brookside Dark Chocolate Fruit & Nut Bars - Cranberry with Blackberry

This bar was pretty good, but extremely sweet. It's a bit sweeter than what I would usually like, but other than that it was still really good. Great consistency, but a touch too sweet. That's why I rated the quality as "good enough for PMS", because maybe during that time, I would welcome the sweetness! -
