This triple threat serum is ready to fight signs of aging like volume loss and plumping, fine lines, wrinkles and dark spots by combining:
- hyaluronic acid
- vitamin C and niacinamide
- ferulic acid
The 3 separately contained serums allow each pump of the product to freshly mix with each application.
I’ve been using this serum for almost two weeks, so I have only begun to see benefits. My skin felt plump within a day of starting this serum. I have not seen much difference in fine lines, wrinkles of dark spots, but I imagine this is something that would come with extended use.
The instructions told me to pump until all three chambers were distributing product. This took many pumps of only one then two serums coming out. I feel like given the price point I lost a lot of product trying to get all three serums to come out. As someone with sensitive skin I’m prone to having reactions to fragrances in skincare, and since I don’t feel like it adds to the efficacy of a product I wish there was none added.
I appreciate how beautiful this serum absorbs into my skin and how well it works under my makeup. I absolutely love the luxurious packaging that also serves to protect the serum from light and air.
Overall I’m anxious to see additional results as I continue to use this serum.

PanOxyl PM Blemish Brightening Patches

I used this patch on a nasty breakout after cleansing and drying my skin. The patch went on easily, and I especially appreciated that the patches come in two sizes so I was able to choose the best one for me(sadly it was the larger one this time!). The patch itself was very comfortable. I couldn’t see it at all on my skin.
By the next morning the patch has absorbed some oils and gunk and the pimple was absolutely reduced in size, though not completely gone. I think it sped up the duration of time I would have had to endure this breakout.
I did notice that removing the patch left the area and surrounding skin quite red for about an hour after removing it carefully, so I would note that to anyone who might want to whip it off on the way out the door. After the redness calmed I could see the full effects of the patch. My breakout had flattened, redness was significantly reduced and my skin wasn’t dried out or textured, which actually improved makeup application over the breakout, making concealing it much easier. The breakout was to the right of my lip and I struggle to find it in the photo!
I received this product for free in exchange for my honest review.

I love this side dish! After prepping a simple protein like a chicken breast, adding this as a side dish is perfect for completing a well rounded meal. The smoky chipotle isn’t too strong or overpowering and removed the need for seasoning. I’m so happy to have so many healthy grains so easily accessible and will absolutely be adding this to my dinner prep routine. -

I work in a hot environment and find myself struggling with clogged pores causing breakouts and congested skin. I work hard to find affordable products that help me treat and prevent acne.
I have been using these cleansing pads as part of my skincare routine for a few weeks now and I’ve been really pleased with the results. I use these pads on my face a few times a week, as I found daily use a bit too drying, but I use the pads daily on my back as that skin is less sensitive.
I began to see results within a few days, seeing existing breakouts clearing up faster than usual and breakouts that looked like they were developing that never came to the surface. Within two weeks, I had visible improvements in my complexion.
The smell of the pads is a bit strong but the formula is very gentle on my sensitive skin, so don’t let that intimidate you!
I’m very happy with the results as well as the price point, so I’m absolutely going to purchase this again.

I struggle with clogged pores on my back caused from my hot work environment. I have to work hard to keep blackheads and skin congestion at bay. This scrub has been the solution I had been hoping to find. After wetting my skin, this formula works into a nice lather but the gentle exfoliation particles coupled with the salicylic acid seems to work wonders on my skin. I started seeing results within a few days, and after two weeks the difference was really apparent. This is a really affordable product that delivers great results, which is really motivating me to purchase this again.
I have been using this daily on my back but only weekly on my face as I found daily use became a little too drying for me, but I see improvement even with the staggered use on my face.
Usually these kinds of products have heavy medicinal smells, but this scrub has a sweet refreshing fragrance that I absolutely love.

My entire home is flooring. I have ceramic tiles and hardwood, so getting my floors clean can be a struggle, especially the grout between tiles. This clean water system takes mopping to another level. I’m not dealing with dirty water after one pass of the mop. I fill the clean water tank with water and my preferred floor cleaner, and put it into the larger bucket. By opening the hatch, clean water fills the reservoir where I can douse my mop, then by using the pedal activated spin system, I can either rinse out excess water, or clean my mop for the next pass. No bending! The microfibre head is great for picking up dirt, dust, pet hair and removing stubborn spots on the floor. It removes easily from the handle and was like brand new after running through the washing machine. The telescopic handle on the mop made storage really easy. This is a fantastic system. I’m so happy I had the opportunity to try this for free from Family Rated. -

I really like this soap! I’m already partial to foaming hand soaps, so I was excited to see this product coming from Dial, a brand I’ve been using for years and years.
The juniper scent is soft and subtle. It’s pleasant without being overpowering.
One pump is plenty to wash my hands effectively, the foam creates a nice lather but washed away easily.
Given how often I wash my hands most soaps are too drying leaving me with cracked, dry skin. Since I started using this Dial Micellar foaming soap, my hands are soft again! I love that I’ve found a hand soap that works well but feels nourishing as well.
The product value is excellent, I’ve been using it for weeks and despite MANY handwashing sessions a day in my household, I’ve barely used half the bottle.
I can’t wait to try the other scent, but I will definitely be buying this again!

I’m really happy to have been given this product for free in exchange for my honest review from
chick advisor.
I love that Dove is making an aluminum free deodorant, and that it’s affordable and accessible.
This formula works SO well! I used it first thing in the morning and after a day of work, a trip to the gym, groceries and dinner out, I still smelled delightful, with no need to reapply.
I’m not a huge fan of coconut scent but this one is light and not too sweet and honestly faded enough that I didn’t even notice it after 20 minutes.
My only criticism is that I found my armpits sticky the entire time, it never diminished. But given the value, the pleasant scent and the super long lasting effectiveness, it’s still worth the stickiness.
I will absolutely repurchase this product!

I've been using this retinol oil for a week and I'm thrilled with the results so far!
I haven't been able to use retinol in the past, even using it every few days was too harsh on my skin, would burn, flake uncontrollably, etc. I'm so happy that this formula is effective but more importantly, safe for my sensitive skin.
The bottle warns of the typical side effects using retinol(redness, warm and tingling sensations, flaking), but I was luckily enough not to experience anything more than a warming sensation.
Normally I don't like using stronger treatments in the morning, as I wear makeup and it often interferes, but this formula left my skin feeling super silky, almost like I was wearing a primer. I love that I can use it in the morning without worry.
My only negative with this product is that there is fragrance added to the formula, which is a problem for my sensitive skin. I'm disappointed that this was included in the formula, so I will likely not repurchase it for that reason. This is a shame, since the price for this potent and effective treatment is really rare to find.
