This deodorant left my underarms feeling soft and smooth.
Its effectiveness was average and other than the softness I would not say that this product was any better than any other deodorant I have tried.
I really disliked the smell. It was quite strong and to me smelt like diaper rash cream. Probably for this reason alone, even though it was effective and moisturizing, I would not purchase this product again in the future.

NIVEA Creme Care Facial Cleansing Wipes

My first impression when I opened the package of facial wipes was that they 100% smelt like baby wipes! I wasn't too excited about wiping my face with something that smelled like something meant to wipe a baby's bum!
Scent aside, the product works great. It was able to remove all my make up (with just one wipe) and left my skin feeling soft and smooth.
These would be great for travelling or while you're on the go. For every day use I much prefer to use a cleanser & water however.
I would definitely consider buying for when I'm away from home.

I'm generally a huge fan of NIVEA products. I can't say that I was a fan of this cleansing lotion.
While the smell is great (classic NIVEA scent), and it's smooth and feels rich on your skin, I did not find that it was effective at cleaning my face.
It did not remove all of my make up and it left my skin feeling somewhat greasy afterwards.
I will not be purchasing this product in the future.

This is a great herbal tea! As I try not to consume caffeine on a regular basis I drink a lot of herbal teas.
I love the freshness of the lemon and the bit of spice from the ginger. It's a great pick me up tea for when I need a bit of energy and also great on cold days/nights.
One of my favourites that I always have in stock both at home and work!

Overall this is a very yummy treat!
The combination of chocolate and peanut butter is a favourite of mine although I found that as I was getting to the end of the ice cream it was becoming too rich and sweet for me (and I'm a huge lover of sweets!).
The quality of the ice cream, chocolate and peanut butter is all great however I find that these are a bit pricey for me. There are other products that cost less but are just as delicious!

Yes, it cleaned my hair and didn't dry it out, but beyond that I did not see any added benefits.
I would buy this product again if it were on sale, however I will continue the search for a shampoo that wows me!

This is my go-to antiperspirant and the only one I now buy.
I love the soothing cucumber scent that is fresh smelling but subtle enough that it doesn't interfere with my regular perfume.
It is long lasting and keeps me fresh throughout my regular days. The only time I need to reapply is if I'm heading to the gym and anticipate having a super sweaty work out.
This product also leaves my skin feeling smooth and hydrated.

Overall this is a great product and is one that I will continue to use and purchase.
You really only need a very small amount of the product to cover the face. I do find that this keeps my skin feeling very soft and very hydrated. I have noticed that my skin is more hydrated since using this product. I used to have some dry areas but those are now gone.
The only area where this product disappoints is in its effectiveness to treat acne. I find that the areas on my face that are affected by acne are slightly less red but it has not treated the acne to the point of it being gone. I still get some flare ups but hope that these will continue to improve as I continue to use the product as the other benefits of this product are great. I have also noticed that my skin is softer and has a more even skin tone.
I do find that the scent of this product is too strong. Of all three products in this line this product is the one that smells the strongest. The scent is too florally for me and reminds me of scents that my grandmother would like.
Because of the benefits I have seen since using this product I will continue to use and purchase it.

I was overall pleased with this product.
The product itself is easy to use and little is required for each use.
I found that the product left my skin feeling smooth and helped to even out my skin tone. What I did not find was that it greatly reduced my acne, which was disappointing as I was hoping that the acne treatment line would.
However the other benefits mentioned will keep me purchasing this product in the future.
I like that the product provides my skin with a deep-clean feeling without causing it to dry out or feel tight the way other products I have used in the past have. When applying it, especially to areas affected by acne, it can skin for a second, which I'm not unpleased with. I actually like it as I feel that it is doing something. While it hasn't helped to remove my acne as much as I would have like it has helped to reduce the appearance and redness in those areas.
The scent isn't one I love. While it does have a fresh scent it's a bit too strong for me.
I will definitely continue to use and purchase this product.

I have very excited to give this product a try!
I usually wouldn't spend this much on a face wash but this product is definitely worth it!
The design of the pump is great - one shot gives me exactly what I need to wash my face. I find that the lather makes my skin feel extra smooth and soft and it is gentle on my skin and does not irritate it at all. The product is great at removing make up including my waterproof mascara and eye liner. I like that I do not need to use eye make up remove in addition to the face wash to successfully remove all my make up. I also really like that the product does not dry my skin out nor does it leaving it feeling tight the way some washes can.
I'm not 100% in love with the fragrance. I find it a little too floral smelling and reminds me of a scent that an elderly person would like. I would prefer the product to be more lightly scented.
My only true disappointment with this product is the face that it did not help my acne anymore than my regular products. The rest of my face however is smooth and has a more even skin tone. I just wish that it would have been better at improving my acne.
I will definitely continue to buy this product as I love the benefits that I am seeing which I haven't yet found in any other face wash I have tried.
