💙 AVEENO Restorative Skin Therapy Itch Relief Balm has been a life saver for my hands, cuticles, elbows, knees and feet. It contains Pramoxine Hydrochloride to relieve itching; Aloe to soothe skin; Provitamin B5 to heal skin and Prebiotic Oat for moisturising benefits. Oats are an antioxidant so this really soothes and calms dry, itchy, irritated skin. This itch relief balm is also fragrance, paraben, steroids and phthalates free. I love the creaminess, and it's not greasy. My skin was starting to heal overnight, but the silky hydration started the minute I used it 💯❄️😊 -

I really love that this new Garnier Fructis Repairing Treat Shampoo with papaya extract is made with 98% Naturally derived ingredients! No silicones, parabens or artificial colourants, and it's vegan, meaning it contains no animal derived ingredients.
The new recylable bottle is so cute too! The papaya formula is a winner for me. The scent, wow, love it! I didn't get to try this shampoo with the conditioner so I used it with one of my favourites. This shampoo really cleansed my hair well. Even before conditioning I could feel the softness and that my hair had been given some nourishing tlc! This is a real treat for dry, damaged hair like mine.
I would definately use this in my haircare rountine. Left my hair clean, soft, and not weighed down.
Thank you #chickadvisor #garniercanada #chickadvisorecobox for this awesome shampoo! #gotitfree

I recently had the opportunity to try this certified 100% Natural Aluminum Free Antipirspirant from The Green Beaver Company and it worked great! I have found it quite difficult to find a natural antipirspirant that performs well. Some have a crumbly consistency; others simply don't work. I have tried several and this is one of the best yet! I love how this formula has clinically proven wetness protection that lives up to it's promise.
It lasts for AT LEAST 24 hours on me, and the natural scent from a combination of jasmin, citrus, geranium and mountain litsea cubeba (mountain pepper) is so lively and fresh! It has a light creamy texture that leaves a satin feel when applied. Immediately feels dry to the touch. I have used this when having a physically challenging day as well as on days that were very hot and humid and I'm really impressed with how well it kep me fresh and dry. Thank you #chickadvisor #the_green_beaver ! Love it! #gotitfree

Thanks to #chickadvisor and #neutrogenacanada I recently had the opportunity to #tryrapidwrinklerepaircanada Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair Retinol Oil for free! I was very pleased that I got to #tryitfree as different products can cause different reactions and I really like to try products before I buy them, when I can. I have been a big fan of Neutrogena products for several years so I was looking forward to trying this one, of course! I used this product for exactly 1 week.
This retinol based oil recommends using twice a day for one week to start to minimise wrinkles,intensely nourish and reduce the look of dark spots. It contains a highly concentrated form of Retinol SA proven to dramatically reduce stubborn signs of aging.
The instructions state to use 4-5 drops twice a day. They also state that for best results, follow with Rapid Wrinkle Repair Regenerating Cream. I did not get this so the results may have been reduced.
First, I really like the bottle with the button pump and dropped, however, to measure a precise amount is a little tricky. It is mildly scented (which is not necessary in my opinion), but for those who are sensitive to scented products this is good to know. It's mild, but it is there, and it's similar to a linen scent.
This product is quite oily and takes a few minutes to absorb, and I have dry skin. Even in the morning I could still feel it on my skin. Not as oily or course, and my skin was softer. After about 3 days of use I did start to have some irritation. Red flaky patches on my forehead. Not itchy or burning, but visible red blotches. I stopped using it for a day and then reduced usage to once a day, and then back up to twice on day 5. The patches cleared up. They do state that this can happen. I'm guessing its pretty strong stuff. Must mean it's working! Not always, but it my case........ I had some results!
I couldn't see a lot of difference until I looked at my forehead. This is where the deeep set wrinkles WERE! They are much less visible now. A considerable improvement, which is great. The promise of younger looking skin in a week was fulfilled! To begin using this retinol oil I would recommend concentrating on areas that require serious attention. For really stubborn wrinkles this is quite effective.
Over time a reduction in dark spots and wrinkles should happen for most but it's going to take more than 1 week! For me there's do doubt that this product will make a difference. If you're looking for a product to compliment and accelerate your anti-aging regimine consider Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair Retinol Oil. Say goodbye to stubborn deep set wrinkles, with a little help from Neutrogena!

Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair Prep Cleanser

Thanks to #chickadvisor and #neutrogenacanada I recently had the opportunity to #tryrapidwrinklerepaircanada for free! I was very pleased that I got to #tryitfree as different products can cause different reactions and I really like to try products before I buy them, when I can.
First, I really like that this cleanser is oil free, soap free and paraben free. It also doesn't contain microbeads as an exfoliant, which is important to me. I was really looking forward to trying this because I get clogged pores and little bumps quite easy so I need a good cleanser that doesn't strip, irritate or dry out my skin.My skin can also be dull and I do have signs of aging and stressed skin with fine lines. A daily exfoliator with glycolic acid sounds like a perfect solution to my skin problems.
I used this for a week and I could tell a difference in the texture of my skin after just a few days! I looked up very close and it was so smooth! Like new skin, which I was thrilled about! My fine lines were less visible and my skin is just smoother, cleaner and my clogs aren't clogged and bumpy anymore. It's so easy to use and you only need a pea sized amount to effectively cleanse your entire face. It has a bit of lather as you wash and the exfoliators are very gentle. It rinsed off easily and my skin felt clean and soft afterwards. I would definitely continue to use this and will be buying it. Rapid Wrinkle Repair prep cleanser is great value for money compare to other exfoliating cleansers I've used. The pump bottle is a generous size and should last quite a long time using it twice daily. I'll be adding this to my skincare routine! My only real issue was that this product recommends using it before the Rapid Wrinkle Repair moisturiser and I had the retinol oil. Wish I could have tried the whole range, but it still worked great! Thanks again #chichkadvisor and @neutrogenacanada
