The Thayers witch hazel facial toner in rose petal has 98% natural origin ingredients and vegan. I liked using this product as it had a subtle rose scent and it was light and refreshing on my skin. My skin felt moisturized and it did not irritate my sensitive skin. As this product costs way more than others on the market, I am not sure whether you get more benefits to justify the cost. -

Thank you @thisisbutterly and @chickadvisor for sending me the new @Colgate toothbrush with charcoal floss-tip bristles. I received the 4 value pack in different coloured handles. These are designed with 17x slimmer tip bristles to help sweep food and plaque from along the gum line. Although this brush does not replace flossing, it does help when you forgot to floss or at least I noticed that my gumline looked more clean than after using other manual toothbrushes. The toothbrush worked great and I noticed a difference between the thinner bristles and the regular rounded bristles. The packaging didn’t mention why they included charcoal in their brush. I would definitely purchase this again. #tryColgate #gotitfree #chickadvisor -

Thank you @thisisbutterly and @chickadvisor for the opportunity to try out a sample of the @covergirl weightless water cream. This product is considered a moisturizer and primer with hyaluronic acid, provides 72 hour hydration and is 90% naturally derived. The cream was light and airy but did leave a greasy feeling on the skin afterwards. The texture felt more like a gel then a cream to me. I liked the clean fresh scent of this product and it wasn’t overpowering. Overall, the product didn’t irritate my skin but I probably wouldn’t purchase this product just because it didn’t absorb into my skin quickly. -
Dove Refillable Deodorant Starter Kit, Cucumber + Green Tea

I like the idea of helping the planet with a refillable deodorant but at what cost to the consumer? I received the @Dove refillable deodorant in cucumber and green tea from @chickadvisor. The starter pack comes with the stainless steel case and 32g of deodorant which is close to half the amount you would get from a regular deodorant bar. This is the major downside I see as this would result in buying refills more frequently. However, the size is better for travelling or keeping in your purse as it is also stylish. I think that if you are not a diehard dove fan, this product would not make sense to purchase. If you are though, this stainless steel case comes with a lifetime guarantee.
The one upside to the packaging is the plastic pack that keeps the refill fresh is 98% recycled plastic. I did like the smell of this product and the deodorant was very moisturizing. I would like this product better if they offered an antiperspirant option as well as I felt this deodorant didn’t leave me smelling fresh through the day let along 48 hours. I wonder how difficult it would be to find the refill packs and whether they are more expensive then buying similar plastic free products on the market. #gotitfree #productreviewclub

Dove Men + Care Refillable Deodorant Starter Kit, Fresh Feel

I like the idea of helping the planet with a refillable deodorant but at what cost to the consumer? I received the @DoveMenCare refillable deodorant in scent Fresh Feel from @chickadvisor. The starter pack comes with the stainless steel case and 32g of deodorant which is less than half the amount you would get from a regular mens deodorant bar. This is the major downside I see as this would result in buying refills more frequently. However, the size is better for travelling or keeping in your purse as it is also stylish. Also the exposed bar makes it harder to apply without getting on your clothes and it is less sanitary. I think that if you are not a diehard dove fan, this product would not make sense to purchase. If you are though, this stainless steel case comes with a lifetime guarantee.
The one upside to the packaging is the plastic pack that keeps the refill fresh is 98% recycled plastic. My boyfriend did like the fresh soap smell of this deodorant. My boyfriend would like this product better if they offered an antiperspirant option as well as this deodorant didn’t leave him smelling fresh through the day let along 48 hour. I wonder how difficult it would be to find the refill packs and whether they are more expensive then buying similar plastic free products on the market. #gotitfree #productreviewclub

I received the Garnier Whole Blends Honey Treasures Repairing Shampoo Bar from @chickadvisor and @butterly for a honest review. The honey 🍯 scent was very inviting and not overpowering. I followed the simple directions on the packaging which suggested to wet hair and bar and then run the bar from root to tip to create a lather. The lather was much less then what you would get from liquid shampoo but that’s what should be expected. My hair felt clean and fresh and there was no soap residue which was surprisingly as the last time I tried solid shampoo, I didn’t have a good experience. This product has changed my mind on solid shampoo . For those looking to be more environmentally conscious, this packaging offer zero plastic waste and the shampoo bar is 94% plant based. I would look at purchasing this again as I enjoyed the product, I value garnier’s commitment to green beauty and the movement toward zero plastic waste. -

@chickadvisor sent me a 12 pack of McCafé premium roast K cup coffee pods to try out for a honest review. Being a coupon girl, I couldn’t resist the offer for 2 free li’l donuts from McDonalds. Bonus!! I enjoyed the coffee and liked that it wasn’t overpowering or too strong/ bitter. Although this is not as good as buying one from McD, this is a great cost effective way to save money while enjoying McDonald’s coffee without leaving your home. I would purchase this product in the future.

Garnier Green Labs Brightening Pinea-C 3-in-1 Serum Cream SPF 30

@chickadvisor sent me their Earth month box 🌎which included the @Garniercan green labs brightening serum cream. I’m a big fan of simple and clean beauty products. If the brands are environmentally conscious as well, that’s a win win.
I’m guilty for not wearing sunscreen most days so it is super convenient to find a versatile product that combines a daily moisturizer, serum and SPF 30 to offer 24h moisture and sun protection. The brightening serum cream is suited for dull and uneven skin and is gentle enough for sensitive skin like mine.
This serum cream texture reminded me of sunscreen with a hint of pineapple scent. There was no white residue after application. I noticed that my skin tone was more even and it also looked brighter after a week of use. I enjoyed using this vegan cream and would recommend to others. I appreciate all of the environmental efforts Garnier is doing such as tracking biodegradability, Renewability and water footprint of their formula; using recycled materials in their packaging and using renewable energy in their Manufacturing plants.

@chickadvisor sent me their Earth month box 🌎which included the @Attitude_living super leaves deodorant in red vine leaves scent. I’m a big fan of simple and clean beauty products. If the brands are environmentally conscious as well, that’s a win win.
Attitude natural care deodorant is vegan, use biodegradable packaging and is EWG verified. They also have a great initiative where they will plant a tree for every product sold.
The packaging did not include any plastic which is a amazing step in the right direction for the environment. The product was easy to apply after warming with body heat for a few seconds. I enjoyed the unique red vine leaves scent I received as it smells like wine🍷 I enjoyed using this deodorant and would purchase it in the future.

@chickadvisor gave me the chance to try out the new Neutrogena Skin Balancing line which included Neutrogena Skin Balancing Micellar Cleansing Wipes and Gentle Milk Cleanser for Dry and Sensitive Skin.
My first impression of the skin balancing milky cleanser was that it is a milky consistency which I’ve never tried before. Although I like the fact that this hypoallergenic cleanser is made with a 2% polyhydroxy acid (PHA) formula and is formulated without parabens, soaps, sulfates, phthalates, alcohols, and dyes; I would have preferred this cleanser more if it was unscented as well. I did not like the smell of this cleanser and after use, my skin was flushed, slightly irritated and itchy. I mostly likely would not purchase or recommend this product.
