I received this free in exchange for a review.
I love the natural aspects of this soap because it’s something I look for in products. This soap cleansed well, was gentle and had a light pleasant scent.
I think because of the foaming formula I went through it very fast, this was the a downside to me.
I typically purchase a large eco friendly bag for about the same price as this bottle so value wise and at the pace I finished this, it doesn’t make sense to repurchase this one. Otherwise, I really did like it!

The only reason I wouldn’t recommend it is because I am undecided about if I would repurchase it.
I wasn’t very fond of the scent but it was light enough and doesn’t linger too long on the skin.
I’ve been testing various serums in the last few months and none really stand out as making a big different (yet), so I’m not sure if I’d choose it over the HydroBoost or other ones I’ve been trying.
When paired with the gel cream, my face felt super sticky. I also wore it with the moisturizer in this line and my face felt more hydrated when paired with the moisturizer vs the moisturizer alone and did not feel sticky.
I am looking forward to using it more and I hope to see a more noticeable different after a month!

I wasn’t really sure what to expect, I had a less than favourable experience with the last moisturizer with SPF I tried (Juice Beauty) but wanted to give it a fair shot.
I used this alongside the scrub and over the serum (not the gel cream, as I feel it’s basically the same idea in a different formula). I expected to like the gel more but actually preferred this!
The scent wasn’t too strong and doesn’t linger on the skin (I’m not crazy about floral type of scents for skincare, so this is a plus).
Unlike the gel, my face didn’t feel sticky, only hydrated, especially when paired with the serum (I tested it both alone and with the serum).
I also like that this has SPF as I often forget to wear it, or hate the feel of it, I know, awful. Having spf protection in the moisturizer is an added plus. I am curious how it will look under makeup and in photos (hopefully no flashback)
Left my skin looking bright, feeling smooth, and looking hydrated!
I’m not sure yet if I’d purchase it in the future but I’m decided to try it out some more and make a decision!

I’ve been running low on my current face moisturizer and have textured skin so because of the AHA I was excited to try this. The scent is a little flowery, it was tolerable but certainly not preferable (to me). They texture is gel, which to me, is generally fine, if you like gels you may like this. It felt fine going on but I felt like it didn’t fully absorb and left me feeling a bit sticky rather than moisturized. I decided to try it without the serum, and it felt less sticky but still fairly sticky. I need moisturizers that absorb quickly, or else I hate the feeling I’m left with.
It did leave my skin looking brighter, but it appears to have a shimmery formula, so I’m not sure if that’s JUST the moisturizer formula and just superficial and not really MY skin. I also broke out a tiny bit right after using it, so perhaps it’s just not compatible with my skin.
For me, I’d use this in a pinch but wouldn’t go out of my way to purchase it.

I received this product free for testing purposes and was pretty excited to try it. This scrub was finely grained enough to feel like it’s doing its job without being too rough on the skin.
I used this every several days and quite liked it. It made my face feel softer and smoother. I don’t find the price too steep.
My only concern is wether or not it would need to long term damages (like walnut scrubs can do). There was a scent but I found it fairly light and it leaves after a rinse anyway.
Overall I was excited to try it and was content with it!

I alternated between using this mask and the overnight mask, and used the drops everyday. I will be honest that I preferred the other mask but that's only because it's more low maintenance than this one. If you have textured skin, want some exfoliation and like peel off masks (and I do), then you'll like this one.
I did feel like my skin looked brighter when using any and all three of the products. While I would buy the other one first, I'd still certainly use this one again as well.

I received this product for free from Chick Advisor!
I really enjoyed using this in conjunction with the other products I received from this line. I absolutely felt like my skin looked more radiant and showed less texture.
Now, I work hard and a lot, so at night, I want a FAST and EASY way to "pamper" myself. This is it. You just apply it and head to sleep, easy peasy!
My pillow case wasn't at all a mess because of this, my skin soaked it all up instead!
I also liked that it had an applicator, so you don't even need to get your hands "messy".
Can't wait to use this even more!

I received this product for free to test out and was very excited as I have textured skin that I'd like to banish...or at least make less visible!
I used this everyday, I would mix a few drops with my moisturizer and pat it into my skin. I have a fair amount of texture near the high corners above my cheeks and temples, which at least I certainly notice...and makeup, like highlighters, over emphasize the texture.
Anyway, while using these drops, I noticed that my skin looked more glowy and not only did the texture look less noticeable without makeup but also under texture emphasizing makeup!
I also really liked the feel of the bottle, didn't feel cheap at all!
I would definitely purchase this again and can't wait to use it more.

It’s also zero calories which is great!

I've been looking for a drugstore, budget friendly hairspray and i am so glad I received this one free for testing purpose.
I have thick, wavy hair and this hairspray holds it well without making it feel crunchy and stiff. The textured spray was perfect for my hair type.
The scent of the spray is very nice and refreshing without being too strong.
Would definitely use this again and again, as well as try the others based on what styleI would want!
