I really enjoy this Eau De Toilette from the Body Shop. It comes in a cute little bottle, I paid $15 for it. It smells very fruity and fresh, just like a mango. It is potent, so one spray or two is good... too much and you will smell like candy. I think that perfumes are far too strong, this is much more subtle and enjoyable. Its not powerful enough to be overwhelming, but anyone who gives you a hug or comes close will definitely enjoy the scent. I could still smell it hours later on my wrists, it is long lasting. My boyfriend can't get enough :) I would definitely recommend the Body Shop Eau De Toilettes, I can't wait to buy a few to mix and match the scents :) -

I LOVE THIS STUFF! It smell incredible, I just want to strap a jar of this onto my face and sniff it all day!! Everyone I have shown this stuff to cannot believe how incredible it smells. It is very moisturizing and it lasts all day. I love that it is thick and buttery, I love slathering myself in this stuff. It makes me want to use moisturizer, and that is rare. Only CON to this body butter is the price.... 20$ is a little much, but the Body Shop is always having sales so I stock up when there is a sale :) -

I bought this product for under $10 at Walmart after testing many different drug store BB creams. I like the consistency of this product, it is thin and buildable, and feels more natural on my face. A little goes a long way with this product, and I can cover my face with a small blob. I don't feel like I am melting in the summer heat while I wear this product which is great, and it blends well with my Mac concealer so I can use the BB cream as a foundation. I also enjoy that this product has SPF 30, and it is now my go-to product for summer days to make sure my face is protected from the sun. Another big thing I really liked about this product is the colour - I bought it in 010 Light Pale. This was one of the only products that matched my skin tone - many of the lightest shades of other BB Creams were way too dark, while others were too yellow/orange.
The one thing I do not like about this product is that I find it quite shiny on my skin. While some pressed powder over top helps to take away the shine, I wish the product was more matte and less shiny, as it claims to be 'Photoready', and I don't know who likes to look shiny in a photo. While this is not a problem for me personally, the product is quite thing, and I think some girls requiring a fuller coverage BB cream may not like this product much.
I would recommend this product to anyone looking for a light-to-medium coverage drugstore BB cream with SPF. I bought Maybelline Dream Finish BB Cream previously and I enjoyed that product, however I prefer the consistency, colour and smell of the Revlon one to be much better. The price was also one of the cheapest there which was a big bonus.

I was sent this product to test as part of the Product Review Club. I really enjoyed this product as a basic, every day deodorant, and I would definitely consider buying this product when my tester runs out. This product does not seem to leave any white residue or creases under my arms after a day of wear, so I definitely feel more comfortable 'going sleeveless' while wearing this product. The product feels very moisturizing to me rather than cakey or dry like some other deodorants. The thing I like the most about this deodorant however is the smell! I find some deodorants smell too powerful or fake, but this smell is very light, floral and pretty (scent is called Beauty Finish). The only con to this deodorant is that I find it wears off after a few hours and I need to reapply. I have been buying clinical strength deodorants for a while so that is why I am used to longer wear, but I feel like if you just want a basic non-clinical strength formula, this lasts the same length of time as pretty much any other basic one out there. I would buy this product in the future and would recommend to friends. -

I recieved this product to test as part of the Product Review club. I was actually interested in this product, I have never heard of a wet cleansing cloth before, and it seemed like it would do a much better job cleaning up that regular dry toilet paper. Unfortunately I wasn't blown away, and I don't think I would buy this product.
Pros: Has a subtle smell that wouldn't bother people with sensisitivies to perfumes or scents. Gets your behind feeling squeaky clean, much better than regular dry toilet paper. They are flushable, and I trust that they won't clog up the pipes because they aren't too dense or a material.
Cons: The sheets are too small for my liking. It says to only use one or two to avoid clogging the pipes, but they are so small that I don't feel this is effective. Even if you wipe with regular toilet paper, you have to use two pretty much every time you go, making the 7.99 price tag a little high. There is no sticker or anything on the package to allow you to use this product without its own fancy dispenser. I had to rip the bag open and leave it sitting on my toilet, it did not look attractive at all, and allowed the product to dry out. When I buy makeup wipes, they have much better packaging to keep moisture in, I felt this was kind of scammy on Cottonelles part, making you have to buy their dispenser. The smell of the cloths wasn't very strong and therefore didn't make things smell all that much fresher after going to the bathroom - a little improvement but nothing that noticeable.
Perhaps if Cottonelle improve the packaging so that I could use these from time to time or have the available to guests WITHOUT having to have a specific dispenser for them, I would consider having them in my house. But I don't want to take up the extra space or spend money on a dispenser for this product, I wasn't incredibly wowed. The pricetag of 7.99 is definitely NOT worth it.

I recieved this product to test as part of the Product Review club. Pros to this toilet paper: It is strong, thick, fairly soft. It does a good job cleaning and doesn't leave any bits behind, and you don't need to use much because of the thickness of the paper. Cons: I didn't really find it all that soft, it felt really dry to me. I have used papers that are much softer than this one. The paper is closely quilted and doesn't have any pockets or airiness to it, it is very dense. I don't think I would bother spending the extra money on this toilet paper, but I wouldn't mind using it if it was in the house. -

I recieved this product to test as part of the Product Review Club. It does everything that it says: Removes plaque, cleans along the gum line and stimulates gums, gently polishes away surface stains. It has a comfortable grip and is easy to use. It is very gentle and feels great to use, unfortunately I prefer electronic brushes as I feel that I get a better clean with them, and my dentists have also noticed when I switched back to a manual brush. If you prefer manual brushes for whatever reason, or are going camping or on a trip, this brush will do a great job cleaning your teeth .

I recieved this product to test as part of the product review club. I enjoyed this mouthwash - it leaves my mouth feeling very clean and my breath very fresh. This mouthwash is not strong and does not burn to use. I tested the Crest 3D whitening rinse prior to this one, and I prefer this one, as it tastes more minty and fresh, and leaves my breath smelling better. The other rinse had the benefit of better whitening, but tasted a little off and didn't seem to freshen my breath as well. The only downside I found to this product is that it would temporarily make my teeth sort of blue. I went to work and an hour after using the product I noticed a bluish tinge around my teeth that was sort of embarassing.

I recieved this product to test as part of the product review club. I found that this toothpaste worked fairly well to freshen my breath, and had a pleasant taste. I wish the mintiness was a bit stronger, as it is very subtle. When used in combination with the rinse, it leaves your breath feeling very fresh. I personally would prefer a toothpaste with better whitening capabilities as I drink a fair amount of coffee. Overall this is a basic toothpaste that works well for anyone not looking for extra bells and whistles, and doesn't like overpowering mintiness - it would be excellent for children.

I received this product to test for Revlon Selects. The purple half of this product is great, you only need one coat of the polish and you're set! I will continue to use this half of the Nail Art tube. I was excited about the glitter side after seeing photos online, but those photos were clearly photoshopped. There is barely any glitter in the product, and I tried my hardest to get as much glitter on my nail as I could, but the results looked nothing like any of the pictures I had seen. I was disappointed, I wish there was more glitter in this product, or perhaps glitter in both the purple and the clear, so the results would resemble the pictures. -
