Erborian “CC Crème” in BRONZE (caramel) is a white cream with encapsulated pigment that turns light tan when applied. Yes, it dries to a very matte finish and it sets quickly. No, it doesn’t need setting powder or setting spray, but it’s dense and streaky. Bronze is too light on me, even for my winter shade. However, I noticed that it doesn’t fold, so I use it for eyeshadow base. It gently intensifies every color and offers an SPF of 25. I love finding sunscreens that are safe for the eye area.

Erborian “Centella Barrier Cream” is a clear silicone-free balm that soothes stressed skin. It can be applied from face to feet. It looked and felt greasy at first, but my dry skin absorbed it without any objections. It can be used as a face cream or an ointment for dry patches on the body. CBC would make a great final step in your nightly retinol routine. It can also be used solo when you don’t apply active ingredients. I use it as a primer when wearing a lot of cream based cosmetics. It makes cream blushes from different brands blend seamlessly.

Tru Earth “Fresh Clean” starter pack has 32 detergent strips, 32 fabric softener strips and a Tru Earth branded tin for storing them. I ordered FRESH LINEN and both strips were equally fragrant. I may have overloaded that first load, so now I know when to use two strips. On second thought, the problem could’ve also been placing the strips in your washer first. I placed two of each strips on top of my laundry to get more foam. That was it! They just needed to get tossed in last. A second strip shouldn’t have made that big of a difference and it really did.

L’Occitane Supple Skin Oil is the quickest and healthiest way to beautify your skin. The soft almond and vanilla scent is unisex and always appropriate. I enjoy it with soft florals for warmer months, but I layer stronger scents for cooler months. I can use L’Occitane Supple Skin Oil en lieu of body lotion without any adverse reactions.

L’Occitane Delightful Mist is their hair and body mist. Upon first spray, it hit me like an eau de toilette, but it only offered the longevity of an eau de cologne. It pretty much smells like the mid notes of a masculine fragrance and the base notes of a feminine fragrance the whole time. The almond blossoms are definitely there, but I didn’t notice the vanilla. And that’s good for me, because I don’t like TOO much vanilla. This is a soft, casual, gourmand scent that’s ideal for layering. I wore it solo for summer, but I plan to stack strong florals over it for fall/winter.

L’Occitane Shimmering Almond Oil is a new shower staple for me. It’s moisturizing enough to use year round. In the summer, the almond shower oil and this shimmering oil may be all my dry skin needs. I like the gentle gourmand scent and the slight shimmer. My skin looks healthy, but not glitzy. I’ve used this product for 3 weeks without any reactions and the shimmer doesn’t transfer to clothes.

At first spray, I enjoyed the cherries and pineapple. It wasn’t terribly strong, but I noticed people sniffing me. This gourmand aroma developed through different decadent desserts. By the end of the day, I was left with flowers and coconut water. Whipped Cherry didn’t make me sneeze or itch. I would order more Clean Reserve scents, but this one was just okay. I prefer florals.

At first spray, I mainly smelled bergamot and a touch of waterlily. The cucumber didn’t really register. Rain kept a fresh, clean profile throughout my work shift. It dried down to an aquatic musk by the end of the day. Since I don’t care for the base notes in the dry down, I reapply it during my lunch break. For me, the top notes and mid notes are more enjoyable than the base notes.

Pure Protein Popped Crisp is a vegan snack that replaces my lunch on most days. It offers a satisfying crunch without upsetting my stomach on sensitive days. It also curbs my appetite when leaving the gym, because I used to stop at all the wrong restaurants. 🍤🥩🍗🍣🥓 I’m learning.
🌶️ Sweet Chili was my least favorite, but it was okay.
🧅 Sour Cream & Onion was good, but it needed more seasoning. (Maybe they were concerned with salt content.)
🍖 Hickory Barbecue was the best, even without the barbecue sandwich. That was my first bag and I could hardly finish the sandwich.
I was gifted a 12-pack for my honest review and I will order more. Thanks for including me!
