Thank you to ChickAdvisor for the opportunity to try this product.
I did not like this product but that is not to say it is not good but I think I have the wrong hair type for this. My hair is curly and without washing it there is not much that I can do with it. I can't brush it unless washed and I think that was a big problem. When I put the product on my hair it weighed it down and I lost some of the volume and it actually made my hair look worse. I also found that it left a white residue on my hair. I think this problem would be drastically improved if my hair was straight and I was able to brush it through,
I did like the fact that the product came in a travel size and I did not mind the scent. I found it very fresh.

I have recently started to use Philosophy Purity Made Simple Cleanser and I fell in love with it right away. What I like the most about it is that it is a 3 in 1 cleanser which is important to me as I don't always have the time to use many different products. I need something that I can use quickly and get great results with and this product does that for me.
I find the cleanser gentle on my skin but it gets the job done. I love how well it removes eye makeup and that I do not need to use a cleanser and an eye makeup remover.
I also really enjoy the fact that I do not need to run for my moisturizer right after washing my face as this cleanser moisturizes my skin and does not leave it feeling dry as many other cleansers do.
I would recommend this product and look forward to trying other items from the Philosophy line.

I have been wearing this scent for over 15 years and it is my absolute favorite. It is fresh and clean and not over powering. It smells like lilies and is very feminine. Every time I wear it I always get compliments more than with any other perfume I have tried. Do yourself a favor and stop by the Estee Lauder counter and smell this perfume. They have made several versions of this perfume over the years but the original is my favorite and always will be. Really hope that they never stop making it. -

Big thank you to ChickAdvisor and Clinique for the opportunity to try out the Sonic System Purifying Cleaning Brush and for free. I was so excited when I was chosen to try this product but also a bit nervous as I have very sensitive skin and was hoping that the product would not be wasted if it wasn't right for me.
All my fears came to an end when I received the product. I pulled it out of the box and first thing I did was touch the brush. I was surprised at how very soft it was and was no longer worried that it would be too rough on my skin.
I have been using the brush since the day I got but am using it only once a day and not twice as I do not want to over do it. I do use it a second time a day if I know I am going out and need to apply makeup. I am also using the product with Nivea gentle cleansing cream as I do not have any Clinique face wash at the moment but I am using the Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing lotion and I plan to buy a Clinique face wash when my Nivea is finished.
The brush works great at cleaning the face. I find that it removes any dry patches and leaves my skin feeling much softer. I noticed that my moisturizer seems to go on my skin better and absorbs into the skin better than without using this brush. For this reason I use the brush before makeup application as my makeup goes on better and does not leave that cakey and flaky feeling on my face.
When using the brush I find it very gentle on my face and it doesn't pull on my skin which is something that I was worried about. It leaves my skin feeling refreshed and I look forward to using it during the winter months when my skin needs that extra bit of help. I hope that with continued use I will see even more results.
Will update this review when I start using the brush with a Clinique face wash to let everyone know if the results are even better.
Again thank you to ChickAdvisor for this opportunity.

I received the GOSH Mineral Powder in shade 04 for free from ChickAdvisor to test and review.
What I really liked about this powder is how smooth it went on to my skin. I used a big brush to apply and it blended well with my skin and provided great coverage. The shade I received seemed to work well with my skin tone but I might check what else is available when I buy the product to see if there is a shade that works better for me.I found that the coverage lasted all day controlled my shine and I didn't need to reapply.
I have been using the same powder for years but after trying this I will need to make the switch as it worked great for me.
Thank you for the opportunity to try this great product Chick Advisor. I now have a new favorite.

I received this product for free to test and review from ChickAdvisor. As always a big thank you for the opportunity.
I am pretty lucky when it comes to my lashes as they are very long and this mascara worked great on them.
First I would like to say that I love the two different brushes for the top and bottom lashes. I find a regular brush to big for my bottom lashes and because they are long I always make a big mess under my eyes. With the bottom lash brush on this mascara there was less of that.
The application of this mascara was easy. It went on well and I found that it did not clump at application and throughout the day.
Although I like this mascara I find the price a bit high and I can get the same results with a cheaper mascara. With that being said I would still consider buying it and would recommend it.

This product was great even though the color I received was not something I would chose or buy for myself.
The lip lacquer went on very nicely and kept me lips moisturized and shiny. It did not feel sticky on my lips and lasted a long time. If I found the right shade for myself I would use this product. Will need to make a trip to Shoppers Drug mart to see what shades are available and hopefully I can find one that I like as this one was not for me.
Even with not liking the color I would recommend this product to others.

I will start by saying that I love this product and will be buying it from now on.
Over the years I have over plucked my eye brows and never did a good job with them (should have had them done by someone who knew what they were doing). Because of this my eyebrows are not even and the hair is no longer growing back so I am stuck with what I have. I keep them long to make it look like I have more but that means that they are all over the place all the time.
This product has helped with that. It goes on easy and I found that it wasn't runny at all. The color I received was perfect for me and I didn't find it sticky at all. It makes my eyebrows look more together and a bit darker. With this product I do not have run away brows any more and they look groomed. I also liked the fact that I applied the product before the gym and it did not run when I was sweating from my workout which is great. I have attached a picture to show my results but they do look better in person.
Thank you Chick Advisor and GOSH for helping me with my runaway brows :)

As always big thank you to ChickAdvisor for the opportunity to try and test this product.
I am a Crest girl and have been for a long time so I was excited to try a different brand of toothpaste as I always buy the same kind and never tried this brand.
I have made the switch over the last week from my regular Crest to the Arm & Hammer Truly Radiant Toothpaste and I was not disappointed but don't know if I will make making the switch just yet.
I found the texture of this toothpaste different to what I am used to and it took me a few days to get used to the foaming of this toothpaste. I also found that this toothpaste was not as minty as my regular toothpaste but I did find that even though it didn't taste as minty it kept my mouth feeling fresh for a long time which in the end is more important. I do like the fact that this paste has baking soda in it and I am hoping that by the time I finish this tube I will see a bigger difference in the whiteness of my teeth. I am a smoker and a tea drinker and I find that it is hard to keep my teeth white but I have noticed a small difference in my teeth in the last week that I have Been using this toothpaste. I hope that with regular use I will see more of these results.
I will keep using the toothpaste till it runs out and depending on the results I may have to do the switch.
Overal I am happy with the results and the long fresh feeling I get after using it. I would recommend this paste to people that want to try something new.
