I just started using this along with the ceramidin serum and cream in the same line. My skin was slightly irritated from a scrub I used and it was a little red and angry. This seemed to calm it after just two applications and it smoothed out the dryness and flakiness I was having on my forehead.
I have been applying this toner morning and night after washing my face and before my serum and cream. I thought since it was called liquid it would be more water like but it was surprisingly thicker which made it easier to apply by patting it on my face using my hand. Afterwards my skin feels slightly more hydrated and ready to absorb my other products.
This contains 5 cera complex which hydrates the skin along with panthenol, centella asiatica and phyto extracts which will help soothe and relieve dry and flaky skin. It does have a lemon Fragrance that lingers after application so if you're sensitive to scent this might not be for you. I personally don't like lemon scented skincare products but will continue to use it because it's doing good things for my skin.

I received a sample of this eye cream with a Sephora order. This is a Japanese brand that has captured the heart of many. If your undereye area is dry this would be a good brand for you. It is very thick, rich and hydrating. A little goes a very long way. As for the antiaging benefits I am unsure since I had a sample size only. I didn't notice any changes in fine lines the short time I was using it however the surrounding eye area felt soft and smooth and intensely hydrated.
The Fragrance reminds me of a slightly milder version of Shiseido ultimune eye power infusing concentrate which is an eye product I lobe. I am unsure if I would purchase this tatcha The Silk Peony melting eye cream again because at the price point their are other eye creams I would rather try. Especially since my surrounding eye area is not dry and I'm looking for more effective antiaging ingredients.

Although this product contains natural Fragrance I couldn't get over the scent enough to love the product. To me it smells like men's cologne. You can apply this before your moisturizer or any time during the day. It does feel nice and freshing on the skin. Especially on these hot summer days. I am glad I only bought a 30ml to try. I will still finish it because it does make my skin feel smooth and glowing. -

My husband found the scent very strong and manly. He didn't understand the name skateboard and fresh roses since there was no scent of roses at all. It was sudsy and lathered well. It rinsed off easily leaving behind no residue. He also said it actually didn't dry his skin out as much as some of the more expensive brands he uses.

My son finds the twist top on the spray convenient. Says if you have to travel with it he's confident it won't spray in his bag. He initially finds the scent quite strong but after the first hour it dies down and is more agreeable. If you are a student like him or wanting something budget friendly this is perfect. He has actually purchased other axe products in the past so he is familiar with this brand. #gotitfree -

My hands have been dry because of all the hand washing and sanitizing. Not to mention the Canadian cold weather. I have been useing this as a hand cream and it's bringing back lost moisture to my hands without making them feel greasy. It contains prebiotic oats, aloe and provitamin which help to soothe and repair the skin barrier. This cream is Fragrance, paraben, steroid and pthalate free. It's gentle enough for sensitive skin and it leaves my hands feeling soft and smooth. -

Whenever anyone in our household feels congested we always reach for Vick's vapoRub. It helps immensely. We have regular Vick's for the adults and baby VapoRub for my youngest. I find it works best when you not only rub it on the chest but also if you apply a little bit near the nostrils. You breathe it in and your stuffy nose seems to be good for awhile. I find it does need to be reapplied frequently to continue being effective. It does smell bad but we'll worth it. I have even used it on my husband when he was having muscle pain in his back and we were out of tiger balm and it worked. -

I have considered using natural deodorant in the past but always figured they wouldn't be effective. I have a physical job that keeps me moving all day long so what better way to test a deodorant. When I received my free sample from Chick Advisor I was excited to use it right away and was surprised at the end of my shift when I was still left smelling like roses. I actually went home right away and ordered a full size off of Amazon.
This deodorant doesn't look like any other deodorant I have used in the past. It is brown and has a grainy texture that reminds me of an exfoliant. It does feel a little rough and scratchy upon application but didn't cause me any irritation whatsoever.
The scent I Recieved was Rose + Vanilla but I didn't smell the vanilla at all. It is naturally fragranced with essential oils and the scent is quite strong and seems to linger all day. Personally that is what I like. I start the day smelling like roses and end the day smelling like roses.
This is a natural deodorant that neutralizes body odour with the power of baking soda. It contains no aluminum salts and no propylene glycol. If you are looking for a natural deodorant I would definitely recommend Shmidt's. Not only is it natural but it works. I will definitely be trying the other scents available in this deodorant.

This is my first cleansing balm and I purchased it mostly because it's blue and looks lovely. However performance is what matters most when it comes to a cleanser and this one disappointed because it did not remove all my makeup. I still had a bit of mascara left behind and I don't even use Waterproof makeup. But I guess that is what double cleansing is all about.
I was expecting this to just melt on my face and feel smooth like an oil which it did for the most part however it had gritty pieces that I assume are crystallized sugar being that it is a sugar base cleanser. If it wasn't for that I think I would have liked this cleansing balm more.
The redeeming quality with this cleansing balm is you can also use it as a mask. And honestly I tried it both ways and prefer it as a mask. It left my skin feeling soft, smooth and looking even toned. Not to mention it does contain some lovely ingredients.
Moringa butter~ Protects skins moisture barrier.
Cocoa butter~ Antioxidants that protect the skin from the elements.
Sugar based~ Gentle, natural cleanser that doesn't strip oils from the skin.
Blue Tansy & German Chamolile~ Essential oils that tone and clarify
I am unsure if I would repurchase only because of the grittiness. I want to try other cleansing balms. I would love this one if it were not for the gritty pieces.

This lovely serum is powered by hyaluronic and essential minerals. It plumps my skin leaving it looking soft, smooth and well hydrated. Not to mention it helps protect the skin from environmental aggressors. It contains natural Fragrance from plants and in my opinion it smells like cool-aid.
Reversa is 99% natural, contains no parabens and is oil free. It feels cool and refreshing when applied to the skin and afterwards the skin feels slightly tacky it disappears after applying other skincare products. It works well with others and doesn't pill at all. I love that its cruelty free, vegan and made in Canada. My usual hyaluronic serum is mineral 89 but since trying this it is a close second and I will definitely repurchase.
The blue glass pump style bottle makes it look aesthetically pleasing as well and since I only use one pump twice daily it lasts a long time.
