NIVEA 2-in-1 Moisturizing Primer for Normal Skin may just be my new replacement for moisturizer and that base I like for my make-up.
I don't use primers on a daily basis - mostly out of laziness. I do however, moisturize daily as the dry winter air leaves my skin dry. If I could get the best of both worlds, why not?
The first thing I noticed was the scent - it's floral but I liked it and the scent really muted itself after being applied. I really liked how light the primer was - it applied smoothly and quickly to my skin without leaving any greasy feelings. It may not be quite enough to replace a moisturizer, but it did add moisture to my skin 100%.
After applying the Nivea 2-in-1 moisturizing primer, I applied my make up - powder foundation & concealer. My thoughts? I am on the go all day - moving around a lot, often getting sweaty working out and the primer DID give that extra extension to keeping my skin looking as flawless as it did first thing in the day.
I have to say - I can see myself using this daily as part of my regime!

WOW! I am so glad that I was able to review this product as it's a new favorite in my home!
While this is unflavored, anyone who has had whey powder before knows that taste that it has to it. The Boost Just Protein taste was definitely masked in my smoothies by the tastes of fruit, etc but there is still that distinct taste there. That being said - it is not strong, but I notice it compared to smoothies without the powder.
I really loved how rich each scoop of powder was in protein while being low in calories and no fat or sugar! (1 scoop offers about 26 calories and 6 grams of protein) - I love that I am able to get that added protein boost to my diet without adding any extra 'junk'.
There isn't much else I can say - the product sells itself with it's clean health benefits! I HIGHLY recommend!

I reviewed the Dove Refresh+ care Volume Dry Shampoo as part of a Chick Advisor campaign and did receive the product free of charge, but the thoughts are all mine.
I honestly fell in love with this dry shampoo from first use!
The scent is wonderful and really helps to freshen up your hair between washing. I found the product worked really well to absorb some of the oil between washes and give my hair the look of being fresh.
I didn't find it had too much build up and didn't weigh my hair down - rather it did help keep the volume!
I HIGHLY recommend this product!

I tried the Dove Nutritive Solutions Coconut & Hydration conditioner as part of a Chick Advisor campaign, but the thoughts on the product are all mine:
When trying this product for the first time, the very first thing that caught my attention was the scent - for being a product that contained coconut oil for hydration, I was not expecting the conditioner scent to be such a strong lime scent. While it was not overpowering or terrible, it's not my first choice for a scent!
I used the conditioner in conjunction with the same shampoo which I found to be almost clarifying and didn't really leave my hair feeling moisturized.
I applied the conditioner and let sit for a few minutes before rinsing - my hair still didn't feel quite as soft or manageable as I am used to with some other Dove products. That being said, once dry it did feel soft and was not tangling.
This may be a product I would use once or twice a week for a good clean, but not quite enough for my daily use with my hair type (long, color treated and a little dry)

I tried the Dove Nutritive Solutions Coconut & Hydration Shampoo as part of a Chick Advisor campaign, but the thoughts are all mine:
My first thought was the scent - for being a product that contained coconut for hydration, I sort of thought they would lean towards that as a scent rather than the lime one that was chosen. The lime scent was nice -- not my first choice for a shampoo but subtle and fresh. The scent would also make this a great unisex product.
I found this to almost have a slight clarifying property to it - after washing twice with the shampoo, I found my hair felt really clean without any build up to it; definitely lots of volume to my hair after using!
I did find my hair was a little tangly after using - not quite enough moisture for my dry hair!
This may be a product id use once or twice a week for a good clean, but not quite enough for my daily use with my hair type

100% my go-to for deodorant! I am a very active person - I work a very physical job and go from there to the gym where I do an hour workout daily - I NEED a deodorant that has lasting power and works to keep me fresh for hours. The Degree womens active shield does just that - it keeps me from from first thing in the morning to late at night! I am sweating throughout the day and have never had to worry about smelling or the deodorant not doing it's job. -

I lovvvvve the Lipton peppermint tea! It's a perfect drink for after dinner to help aid in digestion.
The pyramid bags are really neat - I feel like the tea infuses better having the room for the water to flow through compared to traditional bags that 'clump', for lack of better wording.
The price is awesome too. All in all, a real winner!

TRESemmé® Volume Healthy Volume Shampoo
This shampoo cleaned my hair well, but I felt like it was a little too drying for my already dry hair! Great for removing any build up of product, but not a daily shampoo for any color treated/drying hair!

I received the Arm & Hammer Spinbrush as part of the ChickAdvisor campaign, free of charge.
My first impression was that the brush felt comfortable in my hand; not too awkward or clunky despite it's larger than a manual brushes handle.
I did feel that the brush was a little clunky feeling in my mouth, but it did do a great job or reaching the hard to reach areas and leaving my mouth feeling very fresh and clean while still feeling gentle on my gums/teeth.
I would recommend the brush to anyone who may not be as thorough with their brushing as this brush really did a great job of cleaning!
