I actually received this Dove Anti-dandruff dryness & itch relief as a free product in exchange for a honest review. I really wanted to love this shampoo since I have been a fan of Dove since high-school. I used to use their Volume Shampoo and Conditioner on the regular. Their Beauty Bar is also used religiously in our household. Their products are reasonably priced and are not overly fragrant. But I'm not a fan if this shampoo! It did nothing for my dry scalp, it actually made it worse. My scalp got oily a lot faster than when I use my regular shampoo. My hair also started to itch right after my hair was dried. I followed the direction to a T. It was really creamy and moisturizing while using it and had a nice mild gummy bear scent. But after I washed it off and let it air-dry my scalp felt itchy right away. I tried it two more times just to make sure it was due to the shampoo. I was curious as to why, so I looked up the ingredients. Top ingredients (SLS, sodium chloride and parfum) can be irritating for the scalp thats already dry and sensitive. Also, it has dimethiconol which my scalp doesn't do well with. So unfortunately this shampoo will be a no-no for me. I can say I am pretty disappointed. Hopefully they will change to less irritating ingredients. -

Very effective soap. I gonna say it lives up to its claim. Even before opening the box of soap. You can already smell the freshness. I personally find it alittle too strong for my liking. However my partner loves it. He said that he can still smell the freshness on his skin the morning after. And the srubs help gently exfoliate his skin making his skin feel alot smoother. Love that is 98% naturally ingredients and paraben free. The onlt thing keeping it from being perfect to me would be if they used all natural fragrance. Over all it is a really great deodorant soap at a reasonable price point. -

Chapman's ice cream always brings back memories. As a child this was always our go to ice cream brand. I was excited to get to try one of their new flavors, Coffee Chip! It's gluten, peanut free and uses real fresh cream, natural flavor and colour. Within the first bite I was addicted. It tastes extremely creamy with a non overpowering coffee flavor with a nice balance of mini chocolate chips. It reminds me of an Ice Capp from Timmys...makes me wanna throw this into a blender with a bit of milk and drink it. Lol I would recommend this to anywho who likes coffee flavor or the flavor of Ice Capp it literally taste like a frozen Ice Capp! The only thing I wish is that it didn't have carrageenan as an ingredient. Which just means I have to limit how much and how often I eat it. -

One of my all time favorite! It was one of the very first cult luxury beauty products I ever purchased.
- good for normal, dry, combination, and oily skin
- organic multitasking moisturizing oil
- good for skin, hair and nails
- good for fine lines, wrinkles and dryness

Keep my skin hydrated without feeling heavy or greasy. Works well under my makeup and gives a drewy finish. The only negative about this product is the price... you can for find similar item that work just as well for less.

At first glance I thought the eye patches would be extremely hydrating as the patches look so much bigger and thicker than the ones I am used to using. I figured since it's so much bigger it can hold a lot more hydration but I was wrong, bigger doesn't mean better....lol I did find it helps with puffiness and soothes the eye area giving a refreshing feel. However, it doesn't feel hydrating enough to smooth away fine lines as it claims. I also did not find it help with dark circles as it also claims. I would recommend to use an eye cream under the patch if you want more hydration so it will help more with smoothing away fine lines. With that said I would probably repurchase it as it really helps with the "feel" of tired eyes. I still love the cooling and soothing sensation and the de-puffing. Great eye refresher to have on hand if you have been using electronics devices for too long, or if you have had a long night. -

I was very excited to try it since it's vegan and 98% of the ingredients is from natural origin. I am a huge fan of anything that uses natural and organic ingredients! However, I was thrown off and hesitant when I first saw the texture of the so called water "cream" as it came out looking like gel/jelly similar to that of aloe. From my past experience I find jelly/gel based moisturizers do not work well on my skin. It does not give enough hydration, nor does it absorb well, it just sits on top of my skin. To my surprise the water cream absorbed very nicely into the skin. It has a nice and cool feel similar to aloe but without the sticky feeling. It hydrates and plumps my skin as it claims but I did not notcied its brightens as it claims. I really like that it did not feel heavy on my skin and did not clog my pores.
I actually took it with me on my mini getaway this past weekend. I have to say I love the cooling feel after being in the sun all day. I recommend leaving it in the fridge for it to feel extra cooling. It actually worked wonders on my mosquito bites too since we forgot to bring afterbite. Over all I would recommend this product to anyone who wants a simple moisturizer which gives light-weight hydration.

This was recommend to me by a friend and I can say that I have been hooked on it ever since. I use this two to three times a week. It generally exfoliate my skin and makes my face feel baby smooth without irritation. The only negative thing is that it does have parabens......with that being said I probably will not be repurchasing it and will be finding a better alternative. -

I have recently been given this New After Care Moisturizing Lotion from @benzagelCanada in exchange for an honest review.
I am not going to lie, I was not expecting much from a drugstore brand product as I am not a big fan of them because they rarely work for me. They are usually too artificially fragrant and/or uses too many chemicals for my liking. But I have to say I am impressed with this one. I have noticed it has been helping my "maskne". I have combination to acne prone skin and usually only get breakouts during "that" time of the month. But since the pandemic and having to constantly wear a mask, I have been getting occasional pimples around the chin area 😔. Having to consistently use acne spot treatment has made my chin area pretty dry. I have only been using this moisturizing lotion for a few days and it has help keep my skin hydrated without causing more breakouts. I ❤ that it's not heavily fragrant and it's loaded with skin loving ingredients like botanical extracts, AHAs and unique minerals. Comes in convenient pump bottle and absorbed nicely into the skin and does not have a heavy or greasy after feel. This is also a burget friendly product as it's only $13 @shoppersdrugmart for 100ml 😱 The only thing I am not too fond of is the consistency of the product. It is more like a gel serum than a lotion. The first time I tired to use it, the product rolled off my fingers before reaching my face. But in the end it's not a big deal, you just have to remember to put it on like a serum instead of a lotion.
