These wipes are great for a quick clean in the morning, or to remove makeup before you wash your face. They have a very light, pleasant fragrance and didn't irritate my skin or my eyes. They were saurated well and I really enjoyed them. I received these in exchange for my home estate review from Chickadvisor. -

I received this product in exchange for my honest review from Chickadvisor. It is a decent cleanser, it removes most of my makeup without having to use a separate makeup remover. It leaves your skin feeling soft and never dries it out. I couldn't use it for a cleanser though, I felt like my oily skin needs a foaming cleanser to really get deep-down clean. It makes an excellent makeup remover though. We should all remove our makeup before cleansing, and this did a great job of that for me, plus it didn't break me out at all. -

I received these from Chickadvisor in exchange for my honest review. I had never tried a product exactly like this one. I had tried energy drinks before, but never a single shot type of energy supplement like this one. I expected the jittery type of feeling I got from energy drinks, but didn't experience that at all. I didn't feel like it gave me more than a little energy though. I could have used more of a boost to be honest. This was supposed to taste like oranges, but it tasted more like baby aspirins to me. I didn't hate the taste, but it wasn't great either. -

I received this product from Chickadvisor in exchange for my honest review. I included a photo of the dry shampoo sprayed on a piece of white paper to show dark the shade is and how well it matches darker hair tones.
Here's what I liked:
1. There wasn't a white cast on my nearly-black hair like all of the other brands I have tried. There was a slight difference in the dry shampoo colour and the colour of my hair, but it disappeared once I brushed through my hair to more evenly distribute the product.
2. Works so very well at getting rid of excess oil in your hair. I used this on second and third day hair and it still looked freshly washed.
3. It gave my hair wonderful volume and texture. Sometimes when I wear my hair straight, it tends to fall a little flat, especially on the second day, but this dry shampoo added even more volume than I usually have, even with freshly washed hair.
4. Simply the best dry shampoo I have ever used.
The things I didn't like:
1. The scent was a little "old lady" for my taste. I found it to be very overpowering as well. It was a strong floral mixed with musky scent, that I don't care for. It isn't a subtle fragrance either. The people around you definitely notice this smell. Not enough to keep me from using it, but I may try the other Batiste dry shampoos to see of the fragrance is any better.
2. If I scratch my head, I get dark residue from the dry shampoo under my nails. Everybody scratches their head sometimes and it looks a bit nasty.
I love this dry shampoo, I will continue to use Batiste, just wish they would change the scent.

I received these Nair Wax Strips for free from Chickadvisor in exchange for my honest review.
These strips simply did not work well for me. I have used many types of wax in the past, including the pre-waxed strips you warm between your hands before applying, and these are by far the worst I have ever used. They do not take off the dark fuzz on my upper lip, and they leave behind a sticky mess. I followed the directions exactly and the hair didn't budge. I could not use them on my eyebrows because the wax is not on a transparent strip. I cannot see where they are being placed exactly, so I refused to use them in an area where precision is needed. I didn't even bother using them on the bikini area, because if they can't take off a little peach fuzz, they aren't going to do much with my nether regions.

I bought these fries last weekend as a quick side dish for my family because we were busy that day and didn't have time to cook a big meal. I tried them once, a few years back, but I didn't remember what they tasted like. They weren't a big hit. My family didn't care for the taste at all. Sometimes faster isn't always better. My husband thought they tasted like leftover fries and I thought they tasted like French fries that come in some microwave meals. Microwave fries are far from great and that's what they taste like. Sure they're fast, but that's about all they have going for them. -

This dry shampoo is ok, but the scent is just overpowering. I like the scent of dove hair products, but this one is just way too intense. The dry shampoo works ok at soaking up the oils, but isn't the best I've tried. Leaves a white cast in my dark hair that is difficult to get rid of. -
Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette
I have pink undertones in my skin and these colours just look terrible on me. They look even pinker than on the palette. If you're yellow, they will probably look awesome, but pink doesn't really go well with this palette. Wish I hadn't bought it... +

Clinque Beyond Perfecting Foundation + Concealer
This foundation covers great, but made dry patches I didn't even know I had stand out. It looked ok when I applied, but as time went on, it sunk into every fine line and pore on my face. I was also a greasy mess within a few hours.
