This scrub doesn't give as nice of an exfoliation as the apricot one because the granules are softer/scarcer but oh my goodness, the smell is amazing! I use this in the mornings as opposed to in the evening because the smell hits you so hard (in a good way!) and wakes you up. It makes you feel refreshed and ready to take on the day. -

When I first saw this product at Walmart, it looked so cool and higher end that I wanted to try it. For the price (I think I got it for around $10), it was worth a shot. Turns out, the only thing it had going for it was its looks; this serum did almost nothing for my hair, it didn't moisturize, it didn't make it smell good, it didn't help with my tangles, literally nothing. The only time I use this now is when I run out of other hair serums/oils to use, but I do not reach for this product willingly. -

So many people rave about this product, which is why I picked it up in the first place, but my high hopes were shot down after using it a couple times and realizing how inconvenient it was for me to use it. When I cleanse my face, I usually do it in the shower, but this product requires you to have dry hands and face and to work it on like an oil-gel makeup dissolver. It did get my makeup off but left a slick film on my face, so I had to use another cleanser to get everything off. This is one of those products that really depend on the person and their preferences in cleansers, and personally, I prefer to stick to cleansers that I can use in the shower/ with my clarisonic. If you're a fan of cleansing oils/creams, you'll love this. -

These cleansing cloths give you the most bang for your buck in terms of number of cloths and price point in drugstore cleansing cloths. When I went to specifically look for cloths and compared all the brands that I could find at Walmart (Neutrogena, Garnier, Nivea to name a few), these were the cheapest for the amount of cloths they contain. It is a great wipe for those with acne prone skin and those who are new to wipes as they are inexpensive and allow you to try them out for a longer period of time. They thoroughly cleansed my face and left it squeaky clean for those late nights where I got too lazy to actually wash my face. Great for travel as well. -

This is a really great cleanser that has 2% salicylic acid in it to actively treat and prevent pimples. The fact that it has green tea in it drew me to try it out and I'm glad I did because it is a pretty decent drugstore acne cleanser. St. Ives is the king of drugstore skincare cosmetics so I'm not surprised that I loved this product as much as I did. -

As a scrub, this does nothing for me because I feel like the granules are TOO soft, giving it no exfoliation effect. Compared to the apricot scrub, this is definitely more gentle and moisturizing and would be a good mask for dry skin and during winter months as it is very nourishing for the face. Don't expect a deep exfoliation with this though. -

My #1 go to scrub to really exfoliate and remove all the dead skin cells on top of my face. I tend to switch up my face products a lot because I like to try different brands but when my face needs some TLC, I always come back to this no-fail product. Definitely recommend to those who have acne here and there because it contains 2% salicylic acid so it really fights pimples and allows for healthy skin to come up. It also uses walnut shell instead of microbeads so it really is a great example of a natural ingredient doing heavy damage to acne :) -

I purchased this product on a whim last week because I suddenly starting breaking out in clusters all along my jawline. Usually, I don't break out as bad as this, so I didn't have any products at home to treat it. I was freaking out because I didn't know what to do about all these mountains on my face! But low and behold, lucky for me, I had this sample in my drawer from a couple months back when I received it with a Sephora order and I am SO happy and grateful that I discovered this product.
When I initially applied it onto my skin, the alcohol smell was extremely strong, so those with sensitive skin/smell might not appreciate that, but personally I wasn't bothered by it. It only has 1% salicylic acid in it so I didn't know what to expect, since I usually use 2% salicylic acid to treat any bumps that appear but this product worked like a CHARM. Within 3 days, the cluster of pimples on my jawline disappeared and now my skin is back to normal! This product contains witch hazel as well, so that may make up for the low concentration of salicylic acid and would explain why this product seems to be a gift from heaven. I immediately went to purchase the larger size ($32 for 1 oz. which is unfortunately pretty expensive) and I will never look back.
Definitely RECOMMEND this product to fight stubborn acne and get rid of it within 72 hours!

I love portable wipes that I can bring with me when I'm on the go; whether that be for travelling, to the gym or for just a quick refresh after work, wipes are such an essential product for me. So when Chickadvisor sent me these wipes, I was ecstatic. I tried them in place of my regular wipes and so far, I'm in LOVE. Not only does it quickly remove all traces of makeup, but it does so gently, suitable even for sensitive skin. It left my skin feeling clean and refreshed. I definitely recommend this product to chicks on the go that need a portable option to remove makeup, cleanse skin and soothe your face. -

Removes every last bit of waterproof mascara and eyeliner, all the while being very gentle on the eyes. This product would be great even for sensitive skins and the cheap price point is a plus. It is comparable to the lancome makeup remover, but at a drugstore price. I got this as part of the Chickadvisor review club and am so glad I did... I definitely recommend this makeup remover to anyone who suffers from stubborn makeup that wont leave your face... this product will get every last bit off! -
