I received this product to review as part of the ChickAdvisor product review panel.
I don't often use moisturizing face mists as I find that my moisturizer usually will do the job. I was happy to try this MyClarins product out and found that it actually does a great job of not just moisturizing, but helps set my powder foundation for the day.
The scent is a soft floral which I quite like. After I finish the last step of my foundation, I mist this on, and it gives me a glowy look and smooths out the powdery look that my foundation sometimes can have.
Although the glass bottle is quite classy and feels great, it makes the product a bit cumbersome to put in a purse for me to use the mist throughout the day. Aside from that one small issue, I highly recommend this double duty product.

I received this product to review as part of the ChickAdvisor product review panel.
I am a big fan of Clarins products, and I love that the MyClarins line uses natural plant and fruit extracts.
The cream has a very nice, light floral scent to it. I have been using it consistently for the last week this summer, and I love that it doesn't feel heavy or greasy on my skin. It absorbs easily, doesn't leave a sticky residue behind, and leaves my skin soft and glowy.
As I tend to layer my face products, it's really important that my face moisturizer doesn't irritate my skin or block my pores.
I am happy to say that this cream fits the bill nicely. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a "good for you" and "works great" moisturizer.

This used to be my go to sunscreen, but after my most recent purchase, I think that I need to look for something better.
The product now comes in a squeeze bottle with a flip up top, and aside from the change in the container, there must have been a change in formula, too. I used this on a recent trip to California, and even with diligent applications every few hours, I still got sunburned.
The formula is also a lot runnier than in the past. Not a fan, and I will not be purchasing this again.

Thank you to Chickadvisor for sending me this product to test out and review.
The packaging of this product is very interesting. Before I apply the product, I have to shake the bottle so that the two separate layers will mix together to do their job. The serum has a nice soft scent and is very smooth and easy to apply to the face. It absorbs nicely into my skin and leaves a soft sheen to it.
I have no problems applying my foundation smoothly on top of this product. It definitely helps my foundation sit better on my skin.
My skin feels moisturized throughout the day after I use this.
I would definitely recommend this two-in-one product for anyone who is looking for convenience and effectiveness.

Thank you to Chickadvisor for sending me this product to test out and review.
This makeup remover does what it's supposed to do. It takes off all my makeup completely and leaves my skin feeling fresh and hydrated.
The gel has a very nice consistency and a soft scent to it. It's conveniently packaged in a pump bottle. I just need two pumps of the product to totally cleanse my face.
I would totally recommend this cleanser to anyone looking for an easy to use and effective cleanser.

Thanks to ChickAdvisor, I #gotitfree to try and give my honest opinion.
I like how soft and silky feeling this brush is. It does a great job of picking up the Radiant Loose Powder foundation and blending it nicely into my skin.
At first, the brush had a funny smell to it, but I have found that it's mostly gone now. I kept the plastic container that it's in so that I can just take it with me for touch ups.
This is a very useful and versatile brush for powder foundations.

Thanks to ChickAdvisor, I #gotitfree to try and give my honest opinion.
The Radiant Loose Powder Foundation is so easy to use. Used in conjunction with the Mineral Brush 11, I can have my foundation makeup done in less than a minute. The powder blends easily and makes my skin look natural, but better than it normally does. It evens out my skin and makes it look radiant.
The container is also great for travel as it is literally spill proof.
I am so impressed by this line of products.

Thanks to ChickAdvisor, I #gotitfree to try and give my honest opinion.
This primer is very silky feeling, and spreads very nicely and absorbs well into the skin. I like that it gives my face a nice, smooth finish and helps the Radiant Loose Powder foundation last all day on my face.
I just wish that there is more than 15ml of product in the container. I usually need at least a dime sized amount to cover my face entirely.

I received this to test as part of the ChickAdvisor review panel. I love the shape of the balm, and it's so easy to hold. One swipe on each lip is all I need to get my lips covered with the product.
The balm goes on smoothly and is not tacky feeling at all. I do find that it disappears after an hour or so, but that's the same for most lip products. I do like that my lips feel moist and plump after using this for a week. The Sweet Mint flavor is not too overwhelming.
I definitely would buy this once I am done with this sample.

The balm goes on smoothly, and is not tacky feeling at all. I do find that it disappears after an hour or so, but that's the same for most lip products. It doesn't help that I really like the Strawberry Sorbet flavor and am probably subconsciously licking the balm off my lips.
I definitely would buy this once I am done with this sample.
