The Hubby really liked this product. He goes to the gym either at lunch or after work and loved that this was both a body wash and face wash - no lugging multiple products to the gym-work and back.
He said it also kept his skin mousturized (as he doesn't typically use a lotion) and really loved the scent.

I received this product from ChickAdvisor for an honest review. When I first looked at the product, I didn't think it would be moisturizing enough for my dry skin - especially in the winter months when my skin can get scaly and flaky - but this product worked great! My body is hydrated for days after using this. My body never felt dry, tight or itchy like most body creams leave me feeling. While this product is a bit on the expensive side, the quality ingredients are definitely worth it! -

This product is great for those quick touch ups in between colouring. I keep this in my purse for quick touch ups before heading out to an event after work. The dark brown matches my dark hair quite well and doesn't leave my hair clumpy (like when I would use regular mascara for touch ups!) It doesn't flake off like I was expecting it to either!
This is not a replacement for dying your hair, but it is a great product for when you start to see the greys creeping in. Perfect for busy lifestyles.

Dove Advanced Care Go Fresh Pear & Aloe Vera Scent Antiperspirant Stick

When I first received the pear aloe vera scent I was worried that it would have a very strong, sickly-sweet scent. I don't usually purchase fruity scents because of this. Thankfully I was wrong. While it does smell like a pear orchard, it is not overwhelming or conflict with my other products (i.e., perfume). The scent actually reminds me of a warm breeze on a Caribbean island. It definitely smells like a product from Bath and Body Works - which for me is a very good thing.
Typical of the other Dove antiperspirants I have used, this does the job well. It hasn't stained my clothes and it keeps me dry and fresh. I haven't noticed any white underarms when I wear sleeveless tops either.
Overall, another great product from Dove.

this stuff is amazing!
I have tried all sorts of products, more lately at Sephora thinking higher price = more effective product, but thats not the case.
I have lose curls/wavy hair that I have never been able to control for my entire life. It always comes out looking frizzy and like I just just got up out of bed.
I decided to try this as it was on sale at my local drug store (less than $10)
I didn't follow the directions to a T though.
I blow dried my hair - but not bone dry, just ever so slightly damp. I used a nickel sized dollop, rubbed in my hands and applied to my medium length hair and the results were amazing! nice bouncy curls! better yet, it still looked great on day 2 and 3!! that never happens with my hair - ever!!
highly recommended!

I usually dye my hair at home and I've been doing it for years. I saw that L'Oreal preference had some really great colours that appealed to me and since they have a really good reputation, I decided to purchase it.
The instructions are very easy to follow. Once applied, I always put a shower cap on and continue with my housework. With this brand in my hair however, I couldn't do anything! the dye continued to drip and run down my face. I wanted to just wash everything off in the first 15 minutes because it was annoying but decided that I invested my time to dye my hair and I was going to see it through.
My colour came out even and quite beautiful. Ever so slightly darker than I wanted but I hear it lightens up after a few washes.
Overall, the liquidy consistency of this brand is not for me. I much prefer cream colours that down continuously run down my face for 30 minutes. I would not repurchase.

I had a feeling I would like this product, but I had no idea how much I would LOVE this product!
I've bought many lip products promising soft lips, but the results were usually middle of the road. This, however was amazing!
I left Toronto in the February cold to visit Seattle for a few days (not sure which was colder!). My lips were dry and red and hurt so much from the cracking.
As soon as I got home, I put this stuff on and by the time I was ready for bed, my lips were soft and supple. Everyone needs this in the winter!

I was originally looking for a highlighter that wasn't too glittery. I saw the reviews for this and decided to try it - so glad I did! While it wasn't exactly the highlighter I was looking for, this stuff is ah-maz-ing!
I wasn't sure how exactly to use this at first. After watching a few youtube videos and reading a few reviews, I tried it under my foundation. This gave me an amazing glow! My current foundation is a medium coverage, but this still came through enough to make it appear as if I have the healthiest skin even! I now use this everyday and wouldn't trade it for the world!
while the full sized bottle costs $40, you don't need very much. One bottle will last me a year if not longer. great value.

At first, I didn't see the need for this product. I thought it was just an extra thing to buy. but after I used this on my husbands stinky gym clothes - I am a true believer!!! This is a definite must have for laundry! It makes his clothes smell great again like no other detergent can! Even after weeks of it being folded in the drawers! -
