I was happy to try this product for free from Bitterly and Chick Advisor. I had been curious about Clarins products for a long time but hadn't had the chance to try them.
This product is really nice, though the sampling packaging was really difficult to work worth as it was hard to get one of the products out. I assume this would not be the case on the full sized item.
The product did make my face soft and gave it a refreshed look, I assume due to the tumeric. However, the main drawback is the cost. Skincare is more accessible these days and while I think the more luxe items like this will still draw people in I do think there is a way to get similar results with other products. Though, as I age this may become a staple item, time may tell!

I am a big fan of Covergirl mascara and this mascara is another example why. The formula is great (no clumps) and the brush really helps fan the lashes. It's so easy to create a beautiful result using this mascara. The wear is good and even after 12+ hours of wear there is very minimal flaking.
The only reason I deducted any stars for this is because I while it adds amazing length to lashes, I wish there was a little more volume.
Overall a beautiful mascara, AND cruelty free! #covergirl #simplyageless #crueltyfree

A few years ago my favourite moisturizer was revamped to something that no longer worked for my skin (Clinique Moisture Surge). This Covergirl product may be the replacement I was looking for! The light gel consistency is what my skin loves! It goes on so refreshingly (legitimately makes me feel so relaxed while applying) and it absorbs nicely into the skin, making it feel moisturized without leaving a greasy feel. There is a slightest hint of scent, like aloe or cucumber (but it's so faint I can't completely pinpoint). I have issues with scents sometimes but this did not bother me.
The sample I received was not large enough to draw full conclusions, but the first impression left me very impressed. It may be my new summertime moisturizer (my skin likely needs something heavier for the wintertime).
I intend to purchase a full size (so decently priced!) to continue trying the product out!

I have had a difficult relationship with night serums in the past. Usually I find them too oily on my skin and I hate the sticky feeling they leave. Plus, even though I'm at the stage in life where I seriously need to use a night serum, I usually breakout from using them.
But, *sigh*, Neutrogena Night Pressed Serum.... you're the one for me!
I was pretty intimidated when I took my first dip into the product -the texture is almost similar to Vaseline and let's just say I was super skeptical. Even when I first put it on, the thickness of the product raised concern. But a moment later it was all perfectly absorbed into my skin!
I. Love. This. Night. Serum.
I even wear it during the day if I'm not wearing makeup - it makes my skin feel amazing. I am so impressed by this product! HIGHLY recommend!

I think this is a great HA serum. I usually use products that feature HA in them rather than a targeted HA (for my face that is). I was excited to receive this product to try as I've had some great luck with a few other items in the Hydroboost line from Neutrogena. This product was no exception. I especially found the serum to be great under makeup.
One thing I didn't love was the dropper; I found it to be finicky and difficult to control the amount of product being dispensed (I'd prefer a dropper similar to the one The Ordinary uses).
BUT if that's the worse thing about a skincare product I can certainly deal.
Overall I'd recommend this product. It's a good product at a decent price point.

I love this powder. It really does make skin matte, which this combination skin girl appreciates! Plus, the smell is so fantastic. I am really pale, so I sometimes have problems with powders oxidizing on my skin (even the ones that are supposed to be translucent). This powder doesn't oxidize even if I sweat a bit. It's a great powder! -

For me, this mascara is worth the slightly higher drugstore price tag.

I have some scent sensitivities that have gotten more severe in the past few years, making me unable to wear traditional perfume. BUT I still want to smell nice and to smell nice things.
This is one of the only scents that I am able to wear for a full day without getting a headache. Plus, I truly love the smell, so win-win!!

My gel cleanser was discontinued a few years ago and I was devastated because I had such a hard time finding a moisturizer that dried down but didn't leave my face with a greasy look or feel. After an extensive search and product testing I finally found this I am SO happy! Originally the scent took some getting used to but I am so happy with the results. It is refreshing to use in the morning and it it the perfect base to my makeup routine. -
