Origins GinZing Refreshing Eye Cream
It does what it claims to do: depuff and brighten your eyes with ginseng and caffeine, making it ideal for a.m use! It also feels and smells heavenly. Eye creams are never cheap so this is no exception. 5/5

This product ranges from $6.99-8.99 across drugstores, which is not cheap for a tube of toothpaste. Lucky for me, I found them on sale for $4.99 so decided to try it.
The packaging is cute as the toothpaste sits on the lid and you never have to worry about rolling the tube like the conventional toothpaste.
It foams quickly and leaves your teeth and gums feeling mighty fresh!
Would recommend you try it if you find it on sale.

Although the claim is efficacy for 24 hours, this lotion is thinner in consistency with some oily sensation that lingers after applying.
The smell is pleasant and it spreads evenly onto skin, but does not provide dry skin relief for 24 hours as advertised, especially not during colder months.
It does come at a great price point (typically under $5 at drug stores) and there are many scent options.
Ultimately I think it's most ideal for warmer months and temperatures.

You can find this lotion on sale for less than $6 if you are lucky!
It has the same texture as the original Lubriderm and is softly scented.
It goes on smoothly and absorbs quick, without any oily/thick residue.
Given the harsh cold winter months in Canada, I require heavy duty lotion.
This one is perfect as it relieves dryness and prevents itchiness as it promises.

I (re)discovered Ponds last year when my face became so dry due to the harsh winter months in Canada. It has a great price point (less than $10) and both smells and feels so luxurious when applied onto your face! It is thick in texture initially, but turns more oil-like during the application process. I like using a generous amount on my face, neck and hands for 1 minute before wiping it off with a cotton towelette. I then follow up with eye cream and moisturizer. It makes your skin so plump and soft after use. Highly recommend it! -

The Fresh Soy cleanser smells fresh and spreads easily onto your face for cleansing. It has an opaque milky texture that lathers well. It effectively removes majority of your makeup and oils without inducing facial dryness. I do think it's a lovely product but costs more than it should. -

The ordinary advanced (now renamed granactive) retinoid 2% solution has a light cream consistency and absorbs quickly into your skin. It comes in a hygienic droplet bottle with UV protection so you know that the product will keep fresh for a year, as promised. You only need a little bit (3 drops) to cover your entire face. I use it as the first step in my skin care routine after washing, followed by facial oil then cream. You may experience some breakouts for about 1.5 weeks after initially applying the solution, but after that, your skin clears up, glows and feels rejuvenated!!! For this price, you cannot go wrong. I highly recommend! -
