I’m shocked by how disappointed I am with this product.
This was the only new product I used this week so the changes that I experienced with my skin must be attributed to this product.
It absorbs quickly and does not leave an oily film (which I half expected given the SPF). There are instructions to avoid contact with eyes. I unfortunately can attest that even if you apply carefully around the eyes, the product can still somehow get in to your eyes and boy does it burn.
Yes, it helped with oil control but it made my skin very dry and very flaky (very visibly). It also caused me to break out.
It offers good value if it works for you.

Not easy to unravel.
Smells nice...but very artificial smelling.
Doesn't fit well...the placement of the cut outs are just so off..made it very annoying to put on.
Left my face sticky...felt like I would have to wash the mask off vs other sheet masks that are soaked up easily and don't leave a sticky film on your face.

Origins Modern Friction
My face is always so soft and smooth after using this! I love it! The exfoliating bits are not harsh at all as long as you wet your face a little. The product has a pleasant, light citrus scent.

It is a decent choice for a summer moisturizer if you tend to have oily skin.
The only energy boosting quality is the citrus scent. I kind of expected my skin to feel refreshed based on the energy boosting name...sadly let down.

It smells fruity and the texture of the mask is like super thick yogurt. It spreads easily and the mask has a consistent texture.
It left my skin smooth and moisturized...but 4/4 times I tried it, I ended up having tiny pimples the next day. The time I left the mask on my face did not make a difference. 5 minutes still got at least one pimple. 10 minutes left on got more pimples.
I have dry combination skin.
Just not for me.

So Good Soy Milk
Tried both original and fat free original. I find this brand more watery than other brands. The only reason I'm giving 3 stars is for the Original. The Fat Free is awful and super watered down.

I really wanted to like this product because I like the ideas behind Rocky Mountain Soap Company.
I have tried this serum daily and sometimes even twice a day for over a month and I just can not recommend this or even think of repurchasing it. I purchased this during one of my random flare ups and had high hopes for it but was ultimately let down.
This serum claims to "Soothe, hydrate and heal sensitive skin". The only claim that was proven for me was the hydration. I feel like soothing and healing would go hand in hand but neither of these claims were proven during my trial. It did not cause any irritations or breakouts but it also did not help my irritated skin calm down. The only calm factor in this serum is the scent. If you like lavender, you will love the scent.
This hydrating serum will last me quite a while as a little goes a long way.
Be warned that this serum is a bright orange. It can totally stain your clothes or carpet.

I am so happy to have this product! My skin has been so soft and smooth since the first use!
While I was not a huge fan of the lotion, I am raving about the oil to my friends and family. The oil is light yet super hydrating, absorbs very quickly, and only lightly scented. I did not notice any change in firmness at the end of my two week trial and but my skin is noticeably smoother and less dry. There are claims that this will help with stretch marks and improve skin tone but I can't say for sure if these claims are true. Since my overall skin condition is better (my skin is usually very dry and can get flakey) it may have attributed to the lesser appearance of my stretch marks?

I tried this lotion in conjunction with Nivea's Q10 Firming Body Oil over a two week period.
This lotion is light, absorbs quickly, and lightly scented. I did not notice any change in firmness at the end of my two week trial and I can't say that I would switch from my regular body lotion. I feel that it does not hydrate as well as the oil.

Personally, I find it hard to find a good competitor for my regular hand cream (Glysomed). I have very dry skin all year long. If my regular was not available, I would have no qualms about using Nivea's Q10 hand cream. It is light yet super hydrating, easily absorbed and leaves a pleasant light scent.
I shared this with my mother and she was quite happy with how smooth this made her hands so I actually ended up giving her the rest of the tube!
