The Dewy Skin Cream is a cream with a slightly thicker, pasty formula but not quite whipped. If you have dry skin like me, I feel like you would enjoy this cream over the water cream, as that one is thinner and doesn't provide the hydration my skin needs in the winter. This one is a bit more emollient and left my parched skin feeling soft and nourished, without feeling greasy! Just a note however, this moisturizer is fragranced. -

I picked up the Olaplex No. 5 Bond Maintenance Conditioner a while back, and finally just started using it! My hair while still ultra straight and thick, now has a bit of frizz and occasionally, a wave to it! After using this, my hair felt silky and smooth.This conditioner is perfect if you have dry hair with significant hair breakage and split ends that need stregthening. Often I only wash my hair with conditioner and skip shampoo, and because my hair is thick, I go through a ton of conditioner, so I was glad that I didn't need to use a ton of product in order for my hair to feel clean! I loved that this conditioner was free of fragrance -

I love the consistency of this eye cream. It isn't thick and heavy like some eye creams can be. The formulation of the banana bright eye cream is thinner and lighter consistency. It spreads easily around the eye are, no need to apply much pressure and potentially increasing the likelihood of wrinkles around your eyes down the road. This product comes in a pot/jar and I would personally prefer if it came in a tube or a bottle with a pump, as it would feel a bit more sanitary. I felt this eye cream left my undereyes hydrated, smoother, more plump, and looking a little brighter! -

My skin is currently dry city and coupled with eczema flareups due to it currently being a transitional period between seasons, my skin needs all the moisturizer help it can get! I love that this moisturizer is lightweight, and absorbed into the skin quick! The 3 main ingredients in this moisturizer are Vitamin E, Chamomile Fatty Acids, and Sodium Hyaluronate. The chamomile and fatty acids are meant to help calm and moisturize, and the Sodium Hyaluronate hydrates and nurtures the skin. I found this moisturizer really helped soothe my skin during the irritated skin during eczema flareups, and this moisturized gave a bit of a cooling sensation. And while this moisturizer is meant for combination and oily skin, I honestly still found it to be quite emollient and hydrating for my dry skin. Also worth nothing is that this moisturizer contains less than 1% of synthetic fragrance, so there isn't much of a scent to this moisturizer! -

The serum cream in my opinion is the standout product from the new Green Labs line! All products in this line contain an active ingredient + 1 super food.
The serum cream is a 3-in-1 product -- serum, cream, and spf. I love the idea of this product because for one thing, it saves me the extra 2 steps. And the second, I much prefer the feeling and texture of these serum cream to traditional serums that can often feel a bit sticky and messy to apply. This serum cream was easy to apply on the face, absorbed really quick, so no sticky residue on the skin! This serum cream can also be used like a primer before makeup, as it is non-greasy! The only downside is the serum cream is only SPF 30, so in the summer months (or if you live in a place where it's full sun year round), you probably would still need proper sunscreen!
Also, worth mentioning, all the Green Labs products are vegan, contain 0.3% fragrance, if not fragrance free. They don't contain parabens, dyes, mineral oils, sulfates among others.

I recently had the opportunity to try the Garnier Pinea-C, which is part of their new Green Labs line, meant to be cleaner and greener. All Green Labs products contain 1 active ingredient + 1 superfood. The Pinea-C products contain Vitamin C and Pineapple and is meant to target both dull and uneven skin.
The cleanser has a thinner, watery gel like texture. It is gentle and feels really nice on the skin. After rinsed off the face, it doesn't feel like your face has been dried out or overcleansed and stripped of its natural oils. It is fragranced, but not overly strong and the scent smells very fresh!
Also, worth mentioning, all the Green Labs products are vegan, contain 0.3% fragrance, if not fragrance free. They don't contain parabens, dyes, mineral oils, sulfates among others.

Before I started using this product, I wasn't sure quite what to expect in terms of being fragrance free, but this body wash is truly free of any scent. I always prefer fragrance free or very lightly fragrances skincare, but realized that most products likely fall into lightly fragranced because it does seem a bit odd when there is no scent. This body wash is a gel and does what it is supposed to do. There isn't a ton of lather, and rinses off easily. It is gentle and leaves the skin feeling soft! Definitely, if you are looking for a fragrance free product, this delivers! -

Smooth Talker is meant to be sprayed directly onto the hair between washes, and to condition and hydrate the hair. It certainly, left my hair feeling less dry and less frizzy.
The only drawback to this will come to preference. If you love fragranced haircare products, then you will love this. This dry oil is quite heavily fragranced. I applied this to my hair and left the room to retrieve something, and when I returned, I was overwhelmed with the fragrance.
For the time being,I work from home, so fragranced products are not as big of a deal, but once I am back in the office, this probably won't work for daily use because I work in a scent-free office and the fragrance of this oil is quite strong.

It has a thick texture similar to hand lotion. Because of that, it does take a bit longer to rinse off your hands than regular hand soap, which I think is what makes this hand soap moisturizing! This particular one is a bit fragranced and a bit of the scent does linger on your hands after drying your hands, but it's not overly intrusive! This hand wash is both free of parabens and sulfates and claims to be 5x more moisturizing! I'm not sure I can quantify whether my hands are 5x more moisturized, but they are definitely soft and less dry than usual. -
