This product works great with the other Benzagel products, but honestly, it is great by itself.
It is not unscented as the face wash but has a nice and refreshing fragrance that I didn’t find overpowering at all. The consistency is creamy and not too thick or runny, making it easy to apply. It feels light on the skin and gets absorbed fast. Just beware while using it because it may stain your clothes/towels.
I used it as a spot treatment, applying a thin layer over the pimples and it worked great to dry them out. I have combination skin this product made my skin very dry, so I recommend to use of a good moisturizer to counterbalance any potential dryness.

This acne wash solution is unscented and has a watery consistency (so be careful to not waste too much product when you a pouring it on your hands).
I did the spot test, as recommended by the brand, and was initially concerned about dryness or irritation, but I was pleasantly surprised when I didn’t have any bad reactions to it. I highly recommend to do apply it to a small area first for a couple of days and see if you are sensitive to this product.
Every morning I apply a small amount, work it into a lather, and massage it onto my face. It rinses off easily, leaving my skin feeling refreshed and tight. I could only test it for two weeks but I am already seeing positive results.
It's worth noting that, although this formula expertly combats acne without harming my skin, the benzoyl peroxide can be very drying. Using Benzagel’s After Care Moisturizing Lotion during the day and a stronger moisturizer during the night helped.
I've incorporated this product into my skincare routine and I'm excited to see how it may contribute to the overall improvement of my skin's health.

This is the kind of cookware you find in professional kitchens! It’s sturdy and well made.
The 12 pieces set includes a range of essentials that are versatile, oven-safe, and compatible with all stovetops, including induction. I put them to the test on both my ceramic stove and convection oven, and they performed beautifully!
Being an avid cook and exploring various cuisines (think Japanese, Korean, Italian, French, Brazilian), this diverse set perfectly met my cooking needs. Its cutting-edge multi-layer technology with a 5-ply copper core ensures precise temperature control, even heat distribution, and impressive durability. From sautéing to simmering, my dishes turned out picture-perfect.
Quick tip: Like with any clad cookware, a bit of preheating and a light oil coat on the bottom prevents food from sticking. Plus, these pans retain heat remarkably well, potentially speeding up your cooking time. Other than that, you can use it as any piece of cookware you regular use at home.
This set is undoubtedly a kitchen must-have, and I'm confident it will be my culinary companion for years to come.

The Facial Hair Remover from Philips is compact enough to fit in your purse and wire-free. Plus, the built-in LED lights on top and the handy little mirror make it perfect for those tricky situations with poor lighting or when you're on the go.
I expected it to be just as uncomfortable as threading, but this device is pain-free and runs smoothly on your face. While it may not remove all the peach fuzz in one go, a few passes are all it takes to achieve the best results.
What's even better is that it doesn't irritate my skin or cause any breakouts. It's gentle yet effective, leaving my face smooth and fuzz-free.
While a rechargeable option would have been ideal, I appreciate that it comes with a single AA battery. The package also includes a handy little brush for easy cleaning and maintenance.
Overall, I highly recommend the Philips Facial Hair Remover. It's a convenient, pain-free solution for anyone dealing with unwanted peach fuzz.

Dr. Teal's Black Edelberry Foaming Bath contains vitamin D and essential oils.
The scent is strong and sweet, and you can smell mostly the Black Elderberry, just like in their Epson Salt.
I found that you have to use a lot of product to produce a nice amount of bubbles, yet they don't keep for very long like other products.
Woulb be good as well if the bottle came with a pump.
It is a nice product but I would like to try other scents to see if they suit me better.

The Dr Teal's Pure Epsom Salt Soaking Solution contains pure Epson salt, Black Elderberry, Vitamin D, Lemon and Sage Essential Oils.
It dissolves quickly and helps to relieve my back and joint soreness. Even if it contains Lemon and Sage essential oils, it doesn't make my skin oily but helps hydrate it, which is a plus.
The scent is sweet and robust, the aroma of black elderberries being more pronounced than lemon. Thankfully, I can't smell much of the sage in it.
I also tried using it as an exfoliator, as suggested in the package, and it worked well.

This serum has a lovely floral scent, typical of Clarin’s products, that will linger on your skin. I enjoy it, but if you don’t like scented products, you may want to stay away from this one.
It is a combination of two anti-age serums made with 21 plant extracts, and both have a liquid consistency.
After applying it, my skin feels tight and tingling. It gets easily absorbed by my skin and doesn't leave any residue.
I used this product for four days, mornings and evenings, and my skin started to break out. It provided some hydration, but I can’t say I saw significant changes, as any difference in the texture or colour of my skin, so I stopped using it.
I love Clarins products, but this serum wasn't for me. I wonder if I didn't get optimal results because the sample sachets I received didn’t dispense the same quantity for both serums.

The brush is long and flexible enough to reach all my lashes. The colour is nice and dark. It doesn't add much volume, but it adds a nice length.
It won't clump much if you apply it carefully, but it smudges! After barely an hour of wearing it, it will start melting away.
I liked the length it adds but will stick to waterproof, high fixation mascaras that add more volume.

I was super excited to receive it because the pink one used to be my to-go Micellar Cleansing Water a while ago, and I wanted to try this new one to see if it was good too.
I tried it as a make-up remover, and it worked well, as it even removed waterproof mascara. I used it as a cleanser as well after washing my face. It removed the oil and impurities, and unclogged my pores, leaving my face feeling refreshed.
I didn't notice if it brightened my face, but I was happy with the overall results.
