got2b Volumaniac Bodifying Hairspray
I LOVE this hairspray! For starters, the smell is amazing and lasts all day long. While the product is a little crunchy on application, one comb through and my hair was left free of static and flyaways! I will definitely buy this product again!... +

I rarely use mousse because I usually airdry my hair at night. But... to test out this product, I changed up my routine and took some morning showers. While I liked the volume that this product gave me, I was disappointed with the quality of the product. Usually mousse is light and foaming, but this was watery and really hard to get out of the bottle. While I probably won't use this product again, I definitely recommend another product from the same line - got2b's Volumaniac Hairspray!

As part of the chick advisor product review team, I had the opportunity to try Dove's Volumizing Dry Shampoo. I have thin hair that gets oily quick and I usually have to wash my hair daily to avoid the greasy look. For this reason, I'm always on the lookout for a product that will let me get away without washing my hair. To use this product, I applied it to my hair before bed and brushed it out in the morning before styling. My hair was left feeling full and oily free! This is definitely one of the better dry shampoos I've used. I just wish it came tinted for different hair colours. -

This is my go-to deo! It sprays on easy and doesn't leave any gritty residue! It smells great, dries quickly (although not as quickly as the advertisements would lead you to believe) and keeps me dry! It's a little expensive, but I usually find it on sale for a great price. Although it doesn't last as long as a traditional deo stick, I like the convenience. -

I'm new to eye cream, so I have little to compare this product to, but after using Vichy's Idéalia Eyes for about a month now, I have noticed a significant difference in the dark circles under my eyes. Generally, my eyes look brighter, which has me looking less tired. I love it!! The product goes on easily with the built-in applicator and blends easily. My only concern is the price point - $40 seems like a lot for a drugstore product.

I really liked this product. I smells great and goes on smoothly! As I use a tinted moisturizer regularly with SPF, I don`t have much use for a day cream. But, this is my new favourite cream to use before bed because it doesn`t leave my face feeling greasy like other night creams do. The product is a little pricey, but I can see a jar of this lasting a long time since a little goes a long way!

I was selected to participate in the Vichy Super Panel as part of the Chick Advisor Product Review Club. As part of the First Signs of Aging Routine, I received the Vichy Pureté Thermale 3-in-1 One Step Cleansing Micellar Solution. Of the three products I received, this is definitely the one I will be adding to my current routine. This product is great! It removes makeup and dirt easily and left my face feeling fresh and clean! The price is comparable to similar products I've used, but is the only one that hasn't either irritated my face or left it feeling oily. Definitely worth a try!! -

Last week I tried CND Vinylux’s Weekly Polish System in Fragrant Freesia and was regrettably unsatisfied with this product. I either wear no nail polish or have my nails done with shellac because quite honestly, I can’t be bothered to worry about whether my nails look good all of the time. So when I heard about CND Vinylux’s Weekly Polish System, I was optimistic that this may be the solution, especially since Shellac manicures are expensive! This product is supposed to provide 7 day, chip-resistant wear in the form of regular nail polish; is supposed to be fast-drying; and, is supposed to provide long-lasting shine.
To start, it took me 3 attempts to apply this nail polish because it went on streaky and kept smudging. I expected that ten minutes would be long enough to wait for something that purports to be quick-drying, but for my final attempt at application, I waited 30 minutes before doing anything, just to be sure.
Once I got the nail polish on (and settled on having streaky nails for a week) I started coming around to the product because it really felt like it was stuck on there. Plus, I was willing to chalk the streaky application to the light colour of the nail polish and figured that had I tried a darker colour, I wouldn’t have had the same problem. That was, until I went to the spa on Day 3.
After a couple of hours in the spa, the polish started wearing at the bottom and by Day 4, the nail polish was peeling off in large chunks, leaving my nails ratty looking. Finally, when it came to removing the polish, I could barely get it off with acetone remover and my nails were left with a layer of sparkles that I could not get off!
Unfortunately, this product was not what I had hoped it would be. While the polish may have lasted longer had I not spent a day at the spa, I’m sure that this polish would not be a good option for someone who frequently gets their hands wet. I had really hoped that this product would have been a good alternative to shellac, but it just didn’t get the job done. I would not recommend this product.
*I had the opportunity to review CND Vinylux’s Weekly Polish System as part of the Chick Advisor Product Review Club, which means that I received this product free in exchange for my review.
