I received this product free to review from Chick Advisor. For the value, you get a fair amount for about $4 CAD. If you ration it well, you can get at least 2-3 uses out of it. I like how the product smells like soft and citrusy grapefruit. After use it left my skin feeling clean and fresh. Felt a little dry afterwards but I'd rather it feel dry than oily, and I have very oily skin. If you're worried about it leaving your skin too dry you can pair it with a good moisturizer. Great for a girls' night in! -

If you read my review headline, you must think I'm stupid for getting this in my hair, so let me explain. But first, let me tell you that I received this product free to review from Chick Advisor to test and review.
You get enough product in this package for at least 2 uses if you manage how much you put on your face well. You really only need a thin, even layer or product to be spread over your face. The thicker you leave it on, the longer it will take to dry. So if you apply it too thick, even after the recommended 20 mins of wear time, the product may not peel off efficiently.
So I've seen enough YouTube videos of people applying peel off face masks to know not to get this product in my hair. But I didn't realize I had so many baby hairs growing close to my ears! So when I started to peel the product off my face, it started going well... it didn't hurt - just felt like I was pulling my skin a bit. But OMG pulling it off my baby hairs hurt like heck! You have to rip the mask off like a bandaid at that point. Learned my lesson for next time though!
The product is about $4 at Walmart so if you can get 2 uses out of it then that's a pretty good deal. I couldn't tell if it pulled out any sebum from my pores because it doesn't show well over the bright pink mask, but I liked how clean, fresh, and less oily my face felt after use. Also good to note that if you wear this product it will 100% look like you've smeared Pepto Bismol all over your face.

I received this product free to review from Chick Advisor. First of all, I love the clean and light citrus smell of pink grapefruit! Also, the cap has a really subtle heart shape that is pretty cute.
For anyone saying this product applies thick instead of foamy, if you read the instructions the bottle suggests using only a dime-sized amount and the more water = the more bubbles! So yes, if you're not using a lot of water the product can go on a little thick, but you're allowed to water it down to work up a bubblier lather. A little truly goes a long way!
After use, my face feels so clean and fresh! My skin feels way less oily. For the value (about $10 CAD at Walmart), I would say that this is a great price for this product, especially because you can really stretch such a small amount of product.

I received this tea free to review from Chick Advisor. This tea is great when you need to de-stress. Lavender and chamomile are known for their calming effects. I’ll definitely drink this flavour at the end of a long day, or when I’m sick or feeling under the weather. Tastes great with a little bit of sugar added for a hint of sweetness to pair with the cinnamon. -

I received this product free to review from Chick Advisor. Not going to lie, dandelion and nettle? Sounds kind of gross to me but the grapefruit flavour definitely overpowers it which makes it taste pretty decent, as someone who almost exclusively drinks fruity green teas. It also has a slight taste of ginger I think? Something warm and slightly spiced in it that gives a nice little kick of flavour. Very flavourful without adding any sugar to it. A decent tasting detox tea. -

I received a sample of this product to review in the mail. I got about 3 days worth, so I can’t really speak if it’s truly worth the price you pay. But I did like this moisturizer. It smells light and sweet, and it applies very lightweight. If it were cheaper I’d probably switch over to this product but I have several other moisturizer bottles on the go right now. -

I've been using Bioré products for a couple years now, and they've yet to make a product that disappoints me. I don't really know what micellar water is, let alone charcoal micellar water, but I really enjoyed this product. It smells clean and fresh, and leaves my skin feeling freed from oil that clogs my pores.
It looks black in the bottle but applies clear without leaving any residue on the face. It works well as a cleanser by removing oils and I've definitely noticed a difference in my skin. As a makeup remover, the product works really well but can be tricky near the lash line. It has to really saturate the cotton pad and be held against the lash line for a bit to remove everything. If it was a bit better at removing eye makeup I would have given it full stars.
I'd definitely recommend this product to individuals with oily skin as a cleanser. As a makeup remover, it requires a bit more effort than what I currently use, but is much more gentle and doesn't sting my eyes.

Sally Hansen Instant Cuticle Remover
Love this product. It’s effective and inexpensive. Works very quickly at removing my cuticles. I use it before doing my nails all the time! And one bottle lasts for a really long time.

I’m not sure why/how people on other review sites are giving this powder glowing reviews because this product is barely useable. Clearly they’re using witchcraft to enchant this product into being functional.
You can swirl your fluffy brush, blending sponge, or powder puff as much as you want and pick up almost no product. You can even drag your finger across the powder to try and swatch it and get next to no product. Physically, you need to scrape it into oblivion to get product onto your brush.
The most hard-packed powder you will ever try and not worth the hype. I’m sure if you can manage to get any powder onto your brush that the formula is nice but we’ll never know.

Not the best tasting energy drink but it gets the job done. Gives me the energy to stay up at work so that I don’t fall asleep at my desk. If you are sensitive to caffeine or sugar, opt for the sugar-free one otherwise your heart will beat like you’ve just run a marathon and your brain may act a little sluggish when drink’s effects start to wear off.
*disclaimer: unfortunately my product must have been a dud. It did not give me wings.
