So excited that I received this product for free through ChickAdvisor to test out. I have very sensitive skin and anything I seem to use irritates me. Was so happy to find that it was very gentle on my skin and I had no irritation. It was a very light weight and hydrating cream that didn't leave my skin feeling too greasy and felt great under my makeup. Starting to notice a difference in the appearance of the skin around my eyes and they aren't as dark as they used to be. Given the size of the product, the price and how well it has performed for me I feel it is a very good value for the price and would have no problem recommending it to someone looking for a similar product! -

I received these to try as part of Chick Advisor review panel
In my opinion there is nothing worth reviewing on these pads. The only changes made to them is a marketing ploy by changing the packaging and add some pretty graphics. Might appeal to some teeagers but after 10 years of having a period I could care less about what it look likes as long as it works like it should.
These pads are great in terms of absorbancy and thin-ness. I prefer them to any other I have tried. My only problem is when I used them for overnight, the adhesive seemed to fail and bunched up and stuck to itself instead of my underwear.
Overall I would recommend these!

I recently received these to review as part of the Chick advisor review panel.
Not at all impressed with these. I have previously reviewed these before the "radiant" line came out.
I do not find them to work well with all underwear styles. Either thongs or classic underwear and thats it. I wear a lot of boycut and 'cheeky' underwear and they do not stick well with these at all - they bunch and the ends/edges and come unstuck or roll up - having your liner stick to you is not fun!
My second issue with these is that after wearing them for a little while the top starts to seperate from the bottom of the liner or they get 'pilly' like a wool sweater.
My final issue with these is the fact that the Radiant line is supposed to be about being descret and portable. These are not either of those things. You couldn't throw some of these in your purse to have when you need them. As well you have to use toilet paper to dispose of the used liner - which to me is more wasteful than if the wrapper was useable for this.
Previous to trying these I was using U by Kotex brand of thin pantyliners which are pretty much identical to these Always thins.
The U by Kotex brand solve all the issues stated above and come wrapped like a maxi-pad therefore they are easier to take with you and dispose of used liners.
I will not be switching brands and will continue to use my Kotex liners.

I received Tampax radiant as part of the Chick advisor review panel to try.
I was pleasantly surprised to receive full package sizes for these products.
The fancy outer packaging is pretty but to be honest I could care less what the box looks like. What matters is what is on the inside and how it performs that matters not how attractive the box is.
That being said I was impressed with the improvements made to the packaging of the tampon itself. The resealable packaging for disposal is genius and I can't figure out why someone hasn't thought of it sooner. The other noteworthy improvement is the grip on the applicator. Most tampons barely have any grip to them and thus makes them more awkward to use.
As for the tampons themselves I didn't notice any difference between them and my other recent Tampax purchase.
My only suggestion would be to make these available in a compact size.

I recently received the Dove Beauty bar to try and review from ChickAdvisor.
Like others have stated the inital smell of the bar when opening the package is a little strong. When using the bar I didn't notice the smell so much and it was a nice fresh clean smell without leaving an overpowering smell on my skin.
The bar arrived at a perfect time for me to try it. Just gotten back from Cuba and my skin was in need of some good moisture. I've used Dove's body washes before and loved them and to my surprise the beauty bar is also a great product. I usually only use bar soaps for hand washing but the beauty bar has changed my mind about using it on my body. It left my skin feeling mositurized and clean and no feeling of tightness.
I will probably still continue to use liquid body wash due to my preference for it but its always great knowing that the Dove Beauty Bar is there for back up with the same great results!

Amazing product!
It feels great on my sensitive skin and doesn't leave it feeling oily or greasy. The price is a little steep and it doesn't contain an SPF but a great night time moisturizer! It's helped clear up a few dry patches I had on my face. Despite the price I would still highly recommend this product for anyone with sensitive skin having difficulty finding the right product.

Always Thin Scented Pantiliners
The product works well and sticks good which is impressive for such a thin liner. However after only wearing the liner for a short time the top layer starts to pil and get 'fuzzy' from friction. Not really was I was expecting and kinda a nusiance.

I found that the product was a better quality when it came to absorbancy. What was lacking was the adhesive. The usual quality that I've come to know from Always was missing. I have woken in the morning to find the pad bunched up and stuck to itself. Also find it very bulky and not as flexible as other pads. -
Maybelline New York Instant Age Rewind® Eraser Dark Circles Treatment Concealer
Great product. Easily blends and not too heavy. I did find it hard to choose a shade in store as there was only one tester shade. It would be a little easier to use if the sponge was a little smaller.
