I've been using this gel cream for a few days now, and it seems to work well on my dry skin. As this is more of a watery texture , I find it's easier to apply for larger areas like on my dry, itchy legs, compared to thicker moisturizing creams. I didn't find that there was a cooling effect, except for the feeling of the gel drying off my skin. I love that this gel cream is fragrance free, made with colloidal oats and shea butter while hydrating skin without that sticky, oily feel. This would be nice to use when the weather is warmer, and you don't want to feel all sticky after applying a moisturizer. -

I've been using this cream for a week now and really noticed how it really helps with hydrating my cracked hands, knuckles, and soles of my feet, and to help relieve my dry, itchy, and irritated legs. I love that this cream is made with colloidal oats and is fragrance free. This cream is thick in texture, like most of Aveeno's products, however, absorbs almost instantly and seems to give me hours of relief after application. I highly recommend this moisturizing cream for those with eczema or even just dry skin. -

I used this moisturizer as part of my morning routine and really liked that it moisturized and helped to control the oils on my face while also protecting my skin from the sun. It's always a bonus to have a product that simplifies my skincare routine, especially during the morning rush to get ready. And it is so, so important to use a moisturizer with SPF, as acne products causes your skin to be more vulnerable to sun damage, and learned that the hard way when I was younger and got sunspots on my face from using acne products and not protecting my skin.

If you haven't tried any acne patches before, this is the one to try. I like how it's a triangle shape as opposed to the typical small dot shape that other brands make. This makes it easy to use on large blemishes without having to stick multiple patches on. I used this on pimples in the evening before bed and find that the pimples shrank when I wake up in the morning. It would require multiple days of use for bigger pimples. It's less messy compared to applying acne creams to each pimple and doesn't feel as harsh on the skin.

This is the first time I've used an electric hair remover and was impressed at how easy it was to use compared to trying to pluck every single hair I can see while standing close up to a mirror or using waxes that are messy and painful to use.
This device is pretty compact in size. It's a bit bigger than a lipstick. It comes with an AA battery and a little brush to clean hairs off of the double ring head.
Overall, this is a great device when you need to quickly remove some facial hairs during your morning routine when you're on the go. I use this on a cleaned face, without any face products on.
When you turn it on, it's not too loud. There's a light to help you see fine hairs but I found it didn't really help. I just go over an area several times until I feel that the hair's been all removed. I like that the head contours around your face and that it's gold plated. It removes hair by trimming it close to the skin, not by pulling them out, therefore minimizing skin irritation.
This is good for your face, forehead, around the lips and chin, but wished it would work for my eyebrow area, which requires a more precise device.
Downside is that you do have to go over the area several times in back and forth or circular motions while holding your skin tight and the head feels slightly warm if you use it for longer than a few minutes. All in all, this device will be my go-to as I prefer it over waxing or plucking.

This primer is silicone free and doesn’t leave my skin feeling oily and didn't make me breakout like some other brands I've used. I was already a fan of this brand and love that they came out with a primer that is also great for the skin with adaptogens. This light citrusy scented primer has a clear jelly-like consistency that quickly melts into the skin. It gives a blurring effect that made my pores less visible, skin less oily, and gave my foundation a smooth, well blended look. I use this after my moisturizer, a little goes a long way. My makeup stayed put, even after several hours, which would normally come right off if I was using another brand of primer. Definitely would recommend this primer if you're looking for a silicone free primer with great skin benefits!

Heroes don't always wear capes! In this case, wear @herocosmetics_ca mighty patch 🤣
I received this full sized product from @thisisbutterly to try for free in return for my honest review.
This is the first time I've tried a pimple patch, and boy, was I amazed at how well this product performed. Each clear patch is a decent size at over 1 cm wide, so they provide quite the coverage to help quickly shrink any zit that comes your way.
Instructions say to leave it on for 6 to 8 hours, so I feel it's best to let the hydrocolloid patch work its magic overnight. It didn't irritate my skin when I left it on longer, so that's a bonus. I was impressed with the stickiness of the patch as I'm a messy sleeper and was worried that it would peel off like a bandaid.
I wouldn't recommend using it under makeup, though, as makeup makes the patch noticeable on your face.
Overall, I would recommend giving these pimple patches a try if you're suffering from pimples and want a quick fix to give you that boost of confidence. I wish they had these when I was high school, back when I had a ton more acne! I'm glad that now I get them less frequent and have hero mighty patches to the rescue.
