This is my favourite scent of the Dove foaming body washes. I also feel like it has the most moisture. Naturally, I prefer shea products because they always make my skin feel so nice, and this is no exception. The scent is mild, but soothing. My skin feels like I've just put lotion on after my shower. I only ranked the effectiveness as 3.5 because it's so light and I don't know how deep-cleaning it could be. However, I will definitely be purchasing this product again so I can continue to feel #lightasair. Thanks ChickAdvisor! -

I didn't think I was going to like this scent when I first received it, but I was happily surprised. It's a very light and refreshing scent, but makes me feel clean and soft when I'm done. My boyfriend even tried it. I only gave it a 3.5 for effectiveness just because the foam feels so light that I don't know how deep cleaning it is. I certainly feel fresh after using it, though. I would definitely recommend this product to a friend. -

I was so lucky to #getitfree from the chickadvisor review club. I think I found my new favourite body wash. When they say deep moisture they definitely mean it. I always feel nice and soft after I shower. The smell is also very mild, but just enough to be fresh and ladylike. I definitely will be looking for this in stores when my free trial is over. -
St. Ives® Skin Renewing Collagen Elastin Body Lotion

St. Ives is just a good brand overall, so this lotion is good but it's nothing special. From a science standpoint it's very hard to believe that lotion puts collagen back into your skin cells since that's not really possible, but I did like how it was mild and would be good for sensitive skin. It didn't do much in the way of really replenishing my forever dry legs but for an average priced moisturizer, you get average priced results and it did that just fine. -

This stuff is... okay. If you have sensitive skin but want something that still leaves your face feeling fresh and clean, it's good. Green tea is very soothing and this wash smells pretty nice. As far as being someone with acne, while this definitely didn't overdry my skin or make it super oily, it didn't do anything to improve my skin either, so I wouldn't give it 5 stars for effectiveness for sure. If you're just looking for a nice facial cleanser though, it's good stuff! -

I received this product to try through the Chick Advisor Product Review Club and I am so lucky I did! WOW it works so well! I am really happy with this. I don't wear a full face of makeup everyday but do apply the occasional mascara and foundation if my skin looks bad. This product made taking it off a breeze, without any oily residue feeling afterwards.
The thing I liked best about this Micellar Water is how well it works on eye makeup. I have always had issues with feeling the need to "scrub" off my mascara or eyeliner because products don't work well, which leaves the sensitive eyelid skin feeling abraised and irritated. I was shocked at how soft - and not angry - my eyelids felt after taking off my makeup with this stuff! Better still - when I use other, irritating products, I will feel like I got all my mascara off and still wake up with gross black goop in the corners of my eyes. That didn't happen with the micellar water, I got it all off! It was a great feeling.
Lastly, I think the price of this product, for how effective it is and how much you get in the bottle, is definitely worth it and won't break the bank. Thanks again Chick Advisor and Garnier!

First of all, thank you so so so much to Chick Advisor for letting me be in the Product Review Club to try this item! I have a hard time committing to skin products because I have pretty annoying adult acne and it's hard to find stuff, especially facial moisturizers, that don't make it worse. Found one! Although I do find my skin a little oilier throughout the day when I use this Garnier product, the fresh feeling I get after putting it on is worth it for sure. It really does have some pretty amazing Anti-Fatigue characteristics. It's a great way to start my day, feeling refreshed! I am yet to find another facial cream I like as much as this one.
My only real criticism worth noting for this product is the price, it's not great. On a student or mom budget, it's a pretty big splurge for not that much product. Hopefully it'll decrease over time.

Nope. Definitely better blenders out there. I have always wanted to have one of my own, so I'm super grateful to the review club for letting me have that chance, but I've borrowed my sister's and they're much better at actually blending. I felt like I had to use the Maybelline blender as a paintbrush and coat my face, as opposed to dabbing and actually blending (that also has to do with the foundation itself, see that review). The blender is also super thick and not very spongy, yet somehow absorbs half the liquid before it makes it to my face.
I will say that the price is pretty great and for that I would recommend it, but as far as effectiveness there are definitely better out there.
Thanks again to the CA Review Club for giving me the chance to try it out though :)

I'm really not sure what to think about this foundation, I'm kind of torn. I was so so so fortunate to be part of the Review Club and get to try it, but it wasn't my favourite thing ever. The foundation I normally use is Rimmel and as the main comparison, Rimmel is better. The Dream Velvet was smooth, I'll definitely give it that and the price is average, but it barely stayed on an hour! It felt kind of watery and not thick enough to coat my skin. I tried to use more and then I started to look like a ghost. I feel bad saying it, but it definitely wasn't the best product I've used and I doubt I'd buy it again. -

Well now I'm kind of torn on RECOMMENDING this product, because it's SO expensive for what it's worth but I do love it. I actually bought it only because ChickAdvisor was giving out $9 coupons for Physician's Formula stuff, otherwise I probably would have never touched it. But I bought the Kohl's Kajal Liner Trio, so it comes in brown, black, and purple. First off, the brown pencil broke before I even got a chance to use it, so that was really upsetting. But I LOVE the purple shade, it's not too intense but really brings out my eyes. The black is average, like most black liners, but what can you do. I probably wouldn't buy the trio again but I do love the purple like I said. -
