I received this product via Chickadvisor. I was really excited to try it because I only use natural deodorant.
However, the smell on this was SO strong, it gave me an instant headache and made it hard to breathe.
If you have any sensitivities to scents, or asthma, I would avoid this variety!
I can't attest to whether it works well or not because I had to take it off asap

Dial Pure Micellar Foaming Hand Wash Juniper
Received for free from Chickadvisor. I haven't used Dial hand soap before but was pleasantly surprised. It foamed really well without drying out my hands. I didn't think it smelled like Juniper though. But otherwise, I was happy with it!

It's perfect for a treat in summer every so often. Tazo makes some of the best teas!

Tazo Earl Grey Tea
I've been drinking Tazo for over a decade and their Earl Grey is my absolute favourite. No other has the depth of flavour as Tazo and their Sachets (If you can find them) are out of this world.

Canada Dry Diet Cranberry Ginger Ale
I tried the Diet Cranberry Ginger Ale courtesy of ChickAdvisor today and was pleasantly surprised! Although I think that the cranberry doesn't fully come through as much as it could, it has a subtle tangy ginger flavour that I really enjoyed!

It was quite tangy which I appreciated as I'm not a huge fan of tea that's overly sweet. I was pleasantly surprised at the depth of flavour with this. My only critique is why on earth did they switch to a plastic bottle?!!! I much preferred glass... +
It was quite tangy which I appreciated as I'm not a huge fan of tea that's overly sweet. I was pleasantly surprised at the depth of flavour with this. My only critique is why on earth did they switch to a plastic bottle?!!! I much preferred glass, and it's so much easier to recycle. I hope they go back to the old bottle in the future. -

I received this via ChickAdvisor to review. I have ezcema on both of my hands in select spots. They flare up and get painful and swollen occasionally so I was excited to try this.
First up, it has no scent! I was SO excited that they didn't add a scent into a derm product. It's frustrating when companies do this.
The texture seemed like it would be greasy, and act like a barrier cream which made me hesitant. But upon use, it soaks into the skin fairly quickly and does not leave any residue! It also didnt give my skin a waxy, annoying feel, like barrier creams do so I was happy with that.
The cream didn't last as long as I would have liked, however reapplying several times was fine and didn't make my eczema or other skin any more irritated.
I would give five stars if Vaseline and parent company were Cruelty free. Please offer this to your consumers. There is zero reason to not have CF status in 2019.

I received this as part of a Vichy package to review from Chickadvisor. I hadn't used Vichy products in many years so I wasn't sure of what to expect. When I opened this, I immediately noticed the smell which kind of threw me off at first, but after a few minutes it dissipated. I now look forward to the smell and it's very delicate and subtle! This serum absorbs really quickly into the skin, and despite feeling a bit slimy to the touch, it leaves NO residue on the skin, and does not cause the skin to feel tight at all! I have been using this in the morning and evening with the other Vichy Idealia product for a few weeks now, and my skin is definitely hydrated and more even toned. I haven't noticed my pores appearing smaller which is something it says can occur. However, I do plan on continuing using and am going to look into purchasing other Idealia products and repurchasing this when it runs out! The only real con I can say, is that these are not cruelty free. -

I received this as part of a Vichy package to review through Chickadvisor. I honestly haven't really used Vichy in well over a decade, so I wasn't sure what to expect. When I opened this, I was a bit put off by the smell, however after a bit, it settled and it is subtle and does NOT linger on the skin at all. I now am very fond of the smell and look forward to it every time I use this product! I've been using this for a few weeks now, and even though it says Day Cream, on the actual product, it says something different. I ended up emailing Vichy to get specific directions so I could be sure that I could give this a fair chance, and it was then that they told me the name had been changed to the Day Cream. I have been using this in the morning and evening along with the other Idealia product I received. It absorbs super quickly into the skin and unlike other creams, it does NOT sit on the skin or leave any sort of residue! I have worn it alone, under make up, under spf etc and it hasn't increased my oiliness at all in my T-zone which is a problem for me usually. It nicely hydrates my dry areas and doesn't irritate my skin at all...even under my eyes, which I've had a problem with in the past from other products. I will absolutely be repurchasing this when it runs out, and I'm looking forward to trying other idealia products like the eye serum! It is supposed to decrease the look of pores, but I haven't experienced that as of yet but I am absolutely going to continue using this on a daily basis. The only real con I can think of, is the price! I wish it was a bit less expensive, and I also wish that Vichy was cruelty free. Other than that, I adore this! -

I received this as part of an Aveeno package from Chickadvisor, to review for free. I was excited to try this, because of the unique primer/serum formula, as well as possible brightening results. Upon opening, I was immediately hit with the smell first of all. It's a bit hard to describe, but it's a very VERY fragranced smell with notes of citrus and almost a cleaner vibe. I was hesitant to even try it, because the smell was so strong, but after I swatched this, it didn't irritate my skin, so I continued with the testing. I used this product for several days both in the morning and evening, along with another Aveeno item that I received in this package. I didn't notice a benefit with this product like I did with the other. As a serum, it didn't really sink into my skin and left it a bit tacky. Which, as a primer is sort of what you want, however it didn't feel like a good sort of tacky....it felt like when you get a cleaner on your skin and don't wash it off. But I continued to use it and sadly had to stop using both products because I ended up breaking out with a few cystic acne spots. I don't normally get acne unless it is hormone or ingredient related, and all of the ingredients in this should have been okay, so I can only guess that it was the fragrance that caused the problem. I can't really recommend this product, but if they made one that was unscented or less scented, I would give it another try to see if it would work for me. -
