I’ve been using this serum for almost two weeks and it is wonderful, a truly beautifully formulated serum. It’s hydrating, nourishing and smoothing and I can see a huge difference in my skin in a short period of time. My skin is fresher, the fine lines seems smoother and dare I say more radiant and younger? Frankly, you can't go wrong with the combination of hyaluronic acid, Vitamin C, Niacinamide and Ferulic Acid, a powerhouse combo and my skin is loving everything about this serum.
If you can look pass the price of C$170.00 for 50mL then I highly suggest giving this a try or at least get a sample to test. It has been a long time since I am this impressed by a serum but this is definitely a winner.

I have been testing this moisturizer 3-4 times per week in the evenings for the past couple of weeks. It contains Retinol but please bear in mind that it's listed at bottom of the ingredient list so it's not the highest concentration.
The texture is a lightweight cream that absorbs easily and doesn't leave any residue to the skin. It does have a scent which I would describe as chemically (if that's even a word?) and I am not the biggest fan of it. I love that it's hydrating enough for my dry mature skin.
The downside is I didn't notice any difference it made to my skin other than hydration. It didn't brighten my skin or soften my fine lines which is a tad disappointing. That said, I've only tested this moisturizer for two weeks so I might see some results after a month or two?
In short, it's a decent moisturizer but if you want great results then I highly recommend trying the RapidWrinkle Retinol Oil instead.

*I received this product courtesy of ChickAdvisor in exchange for my honest review.
I have long been a fan of Dove and used lots of their products; body washes, deodorants and haircare. I love aluminium free deodorants but most don't offer all day freshness so I was really skeptical about this.
Dove doesn't disappoint with this! The scent is soft and fresh and stays that way after a long day at work. For your info, I work in a stuffy and warm office space and this kept me feeling fresh all day.
I know I am over-using the word 'fresh' in this review but that's the best way to describe this deodorant. It works and works extremely well. Dries down instantly, doesn't leave any residue, doesn't stain my clothes and it's just fabulous!
Thank you, Dove for another brilliant product!

I have long been a huge fan Neutrogena RapidWrinkle range and have gone through multiple bottles of the serum and moisturizer but this is hands down my favourite product from the line!
It’s a light oil that contains Retinol and antioxidants and can be used on its own or mixed with serum or moisturizer. I love using this in the evenings after Cleansing, Toning and Misting. My skin glows and my pigmentations started showing signs of fading after a mere week of daily usage.
The texture is lightweight and it does have a slight scent to it that I can’t explain. It is not an offensive scent, at least not to me. The oil absorbs within seconds so even oily skin will love this.
Highly recommended and I will forever repurchase!

I love Neutrogena products especially the Rapid Wrinkle line so I had high hopes for this. The ingredients look good but it’s way too harsh for my skin. I wish they didn’t include physical exfoliating particles in this cleanser which I feel is the problem.
I used this two evenings as my evening second cleanse and my skin started peeling on the third day. For reference I have normal and mature skin and I have been using Retinol, AHAs and BHAs for at least 4 years so my skin is used to strong ingredients.
Sorry Neutrogena, this was a flop to me.

All I can say is wow, Joico, you just got a new fan in me. Conditioners usually don't do much for my virgin hair and what I meant by that is I rarely get blown away by one. Most that I have tried do the same thing, soften my hair and that's it. This on the other hand, I noticed an increase in softness, shine and smoothness with my hair after third rinse. My hair is no longer frizzy too, not even in this crazy Summer heat!
The texture is a lightweight cream that rinses off easily and quickly and leaves my hair bouncy for days! It doesn't weigh down my hair and the scent is soft and fresh or as my 5 year old said "You smell pretty mum!". LOL!
Love this so much and will be repurchasing the full size!

*I received this product courtesy of Joico and ChickAdvisor in exchange for my honest review.
This is a very lovely hair masque and the scent is perfect; lightweight, fresh and not offending to the nose. It rinses off easily and leaves my hair feeling silky smooth and baby soft.
Will I be repurchasing the full size? Unfortunately, no and NOT because this product doesn't work because it does. I just don't have the need for it. I have straight, virgin hair so a good conditioner and leave-in product does the job. I did pass this hair masque to my best friend who has colour treated hair and she freaking loves it! So much so she has already bought the full size!
