Nivea Essential 24H Moisture Boost + Refresh Goodnight Cream

The thing with this night cream is that it doesn't really work for 24 hours as it claims. The first thing most of us do, I imagine, is wash off the night cream first thing in the morning so it is kinda hard to really "test" that 24 hour claim. I found it absorbed into my skin and didn't irritate it, so that was good enough for me. It does have a scent that is very mild, but I did wake up with soft skin. -

To be honest, I never looked twice at ELF products for a long time simply because of the low cost and the lackluster packaging I kind of wrote their products off as being cheap and didn't think they would work. That was until I watched some youtube videos raving about their poreless putty primer being a MUCH cheaper dupe for Tatcha. Since then, I've been open about trying more of their products and the quality is definitely there. This primer didn't pill, and went on very nicely under the makeup. Definitely worth it in a pinch when looking for a more reasonably priced primer! -
Nivea MicellAIR Skin Breathe Micellar Water for Normal Skin

I have always been impressed with how well micellar water removes makeup, and I like Nivea's formula. There is something very satisfying about seeing all the makeup that has been removed on the cotton pad and it really makes you realize just how much is left behind when you initially wash your face. Scary to think about, honestly. -
Aveeno Positively Radiant MaxGlow Micellar Gel Cleanser
If you have really pigmented eyeshadow, this product will take you at least 2-3 pass overs to really remove it. It is gentle on the face with a very mild scent, and Aveeno is a brand I usually trust to be a better-than-average drug store quality... +
If you have really pigmented eyeshadow, this product will take you at least 2-3 pass overs to really remove it. It is gentle on the face with a very mild scent, and Aveeno is a brand I usually trust to be a better-than-average drug store quality. For me, it was average, I would prefer regular micellar water for removing makeup. -
Ginzing™ Peel Off Mask to Refine & Refresh
There is a reason I don't like peel-off masks, and this one just failed so many ways. It was very sticky, hard to spread on the face, and this one is so not recommended for even those with mildly-sensitive skin. The smell was strong, it burned after... +
There is a reason I don't like peel-off masks, and this one just failed so many ways. It was very sticky, hard to spread on the face, and this one is so not recommended for even those with mildly-sensitive skin. The smell was strong, it burned after about 30 seconds and my face was very red after I peeled it off. A fail for me. -
CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser Cloths
These wipes are average, and they dry out quickly which can have you wasting half the product. I found they dried out my skin quickly but it was most disappointing reaching for one when you realize only the first three sheets were even saturated... +
These wipes are average, and they dry out quickly which can have you wasting half the product. I found they dried out my skin quickly but it was most disappointing reaching for one when you realize only the first three sheets were even saturated. You're best to skip the wipes and go with the actual cleanser. -

I'm always been impressed with La Roche-Posay products, and I appreciate products that contain pure Vitamin C but are still safe for sensitive skin and I love myself a good serum. We can't completely hide the effects of aging skin, it is going to happen, but if you don't have a skincare regime at all your wrinkles are going to be a lot deeper and pronounced. Our skin needs this dose of vitamin c, so this product was a hit for me! -
St. Ives® Hydrating Watermelon cleanser
For me, I haven't really been impressed with St.Ives as a drug store brand. I didn't like the smell, I found it overpowering, and it really fell short with the claims of being hydrating, for me anyway, it just dried out my face.

Maybelline SuperStay muli use foundation stick
I think this is more of a novelty item, to be honest, I didn't like the formula, I found it very cakey and the applicator isn't really that helpful in applying the foundation. This was really more trouble than it's worth.

Batiste Dry Shampoo Original Clean & Classic
I wanted to give it a try because there is so much hype about it, but I really wasn't that impressed. It is more expensive as far as dry shampoo goes but I found it only lasted for a couple of hours, instead of all day.
