teapigs english breakfast tea
This the is a classic English breakfast tea. If left too long it gets pretty darn strong. I like that it's whole leaf and has large rented bags so it can expand.

Nude by Nature Flawless Brush
I actually really like this brush. I like the fact it's natural. There is a little rubber ring that lets you stand it upright if you want. Super soft bristles that blend out well

Nude by Nature Touch of Glow Highlight Stick
I like this sticks a blush but it's too pigmented to be a highlight. It's nice and Rosey with a lot of shimmer. I find it a bit chunky for my liking but it is doable. I think $28 is pushing it for its price point. I will be using it as a blush... +

Neutrogena Hydro Boost Multivitamin Booster
This gel absorbs really quickly. My skin felt slightly sticky at first. My skin feels really hydrated and soft after using. I like the formula won't interfere with makeup since it's so quick absorbing.

Canada Dry Club Soda - Pomegranate-Cherry
I am a big fan of flavoured soda waters, this one is pretty good. Nice bubbles but not strong enough flavour. I wish it was a bit bolder. I'm a big fan of the fact it is Canadian made.

This is a pretty darn good micellair water, it gets off almost all my makeup without effort. The only thing it isn't 100% great at is taking off my waterproof mascara, but that is normal for any Micellair water.
I love that this is a gigantic bottle that wil last me a really long time, it is a great value for the money.
I got this through ChickAdvisor for free to review.

I grew up with Nivea as my mom's go to skin care product. I always know I can buy her a large tin as a gift and make her happy. I always have it at home. but it is thick and as a result isn't always what my skin needs.
This is similar to the classic or even its light version, but clearly meant more for the body. It hydrates really well but isn't heavy and is quick to absorb into the skin. IT leaves the sking soft and not greasy. It is a great option for those that need some heavy hydration without any heavyness on the skin or grease.
This comes in a gigantic tub and will last you a long time

I was sent this to review from the Family Rated Club.
I took this into work since we were out of hand soap and we were using diluted dawn. Obviously everyone loved it.
I love the fact that the pump gives you one big generous squirt of soap. You don't need to pump it twice. It lathers just a bit, but you can feel the product on your hands doing its work. It rinses easily and quickly leaving clean hands.
All my co workers kept on saying how nice it was and how the scent was mild but nice.
I am a real big fan of the bottle, solid glass with a quality pump. I adore that Fruits and PAssion makes refills for it so I don't have to be wasteful. The natural and biodegradable part is also a nice bonus, I know I could use it at a cottage.
Overall it is really nice and leaves my hands clean and not stripped of moisture.

I got this from the Chick Advisor Product Review Club to try and review. Sadly I am not one for tanning. I do not like the look of a tan on me at all, not even a fake tan. Alsa I had to try this out so I did some patch testing on my arms.
I applied a little to my inner arms and the next morning I had a nice dark mark where I applied it. It was slightly orange, but that is my skin and part of the reason I do not like self tanners. It was quite dark, but the second day faded to a nice shade. By the end of the week it was gone. I can see how using it ever Third day would be ideal for most people.
I do think it is a little dark for someone as pale as me (MAC NC15) and would think a lighter version would be better.
I had no reactions to this and like everything Vichy seemed to be great quality.
I would recommend this if you wanted to use a self tanner and had a medium skin tone. I bet it works great on the face.
