I received Nivea Protect & Care from ChickAdvisor for free so that I could give my opinion and review of the product.
I liked this product, but probably won't buy it again. After using it for a little over a week, it works fine. I didn't notice any moisture at the end of the day or any sweat smell. It smelled a little sweaty the next morning, but that's to be expected after wearing it for 24 hours. It goes on smooth, feels really nice and dry, and didn't burn after shaving.
My only issue with this product is that it smells a little masculine, like men's cologne. Fresh, but manly. If the scent were more neutral or at least more feminine, I would buy it again.

This serum goes on nicely and doesn't sting or dry out the delicate eye area skin like some products do. However, it does absolutely nothing. I've been using this for four weeks now and see no difference. I got it half price, do I figured I would try it. I never would have bought it otherwise for the amount you get. -

I wanted to like this product, alas, I cannot. I purchased the SPF 30 product. It absorbs way too quickly - never thought I'd ever have that problem. It almost feels powdery. I don't like the shimmer in it either. Also, it STINGS if you get it anywhere even near your eyes. Would not recommend. Especially not for the price. -
Olay Complete All Day Moisture Lotion SPF 15

I've been using this for 14 years. Occasionally, I will try something else, but I always come back to this. It absorbs nicely, and doesn't make my skin oily or give me breakouts. However, after already having skin cancer, I wish it came in a higher SPF formulation. Still, 15 is better than nothing! -
Garnier Nutritioniste Skin Renew Anti-Dark Circle Eye Roller

I love this stuff. I have very sensitive under eye skin. Coconut oil makes me look haggard and wrinkly. But this stuff is magical. I just roll once, pat/rub gently, and I instantly look refreshed. But that's not all. I wish I had taken a before photo, because over the course of a couple of weeks, the dark colour under my eyes and next to my nose has improved dramatically. I even dab a bit on my lids as a primer and it doesn't budge. For the price especially, I will definitely use it again. -

My skin has never looked this good. EVER.
About 18 months ago, I had several reconstructive surgeries on my nose following a bout of basal cell carcinoma (skin cancer). In the year that followed, the side of my face the surgeries were broke out in small pimples and dark spots. I tried so many different gentle cleansers, masks, moisturizers, brightening creams, spot faders and acne treatments to try to rid myself of the spots. Nothing worked.
I tried this cleanser on a whim. Actually, (this is kind of embarrassing!) I saw something on Twitter. Heather from MTV's "Scrubbing In" was asked by a fan what cleanser she used, and this is the stuff she uses. I figured, why not? So glad I did.
It isn't super foamy, as it's sort of a gel cleanser. The grapefruit smell isn't overbearing, and it's a super way to help you wake up in the morning. It leaves my skin tight (in a good way) and smooth. After a few weeks of using it, all those spots and discoloration was gone. GONE.
This stuff is a miracle cleanser, and I can't recommend it enough!

This mascara is the single best mascara I've ever used, even beating out my old faithful - L'Oreal Voluminous. The first step really separates your lashes - and not in that spider leg way. The second step adds tons of volume and intensity. The best thing is it doesn't smudge or smear. My under eye area can get somewhat oily, and most mascaras leave me looking like a racoon within an hour or two of putting it on. This stuff doesn't budge! Not even in a hot tub.
The only cons is that it's really, really hard to get off. I've tried three different eye make-up removers when I take it off at night, and still end up having to use the eye make-up remover again in the morning before cleansing again. The other con is that I find it dries out quicker than other mascaras, but at the price, I don't mind grabbing another one.

I suffered major breakouts on one side of my face after having skin cancer removed and several plastic surgeries to make it look "normal" again. I tried EVERYTHING, and finally gave this stuff a shot. Within two weeks, my skin cleared up completely. I do find it makes my skin oily, but not dirty-looking oily, just a light glow. To me, it's worth it. And that smell... it's lovely! For the size of the bottle and the amount I paid for it, I will never use another toner again! -

This is an average product at best. I don't like the smell, the texture, and it doesn't really do anything for my skin tone. I had high hopes, but frankly, I'll stick to my Marcelle tinted moisturizer. I know it's not the same thing, but the Garnier BB Cream promises a whole lot, and I'm not getting any of it. Also, my skin is oily about a half an hour after putting it on, and I don't even normally have oily skin. Pass. -

OH MY GOD. I cannot rave enough about this product. I used to use St. Ives Apricot Scrub for years. But this stuff transformed my skin! I've only been using it for about 10 days, and not even every day, maybe 8 of those. Red/purple spots from old pimples have almost completely disappeared. My skin is smoother, brighter, and has a more even skin tone. I like the heating property too, it's very relaxing. The only thing I don't like about this product is the price. It's $20, which I wouldn't normally be willing to spend, but I found it at my grocery store for 50% off and thought I'd give it a try. Sure glad I did! Highly recommended. -
