I absolutely LOVED this dry shampoo. Honestly I was skeptical about a Dove Dry Shampoo by Dove, but I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of this product, which I received free for testing purposes. It really actually does volumize, while taking out the greasy feeling from unwashed hair. I actually prefer it to my go to dry shampoo, Batiste. This is going to become my new favorite! My only issue with this product is the smell of it - when you first spray it on, the scent they've chosen is really unpleasant. Fortunately that seems to dissipate very shortly after applying. Will definitely purchase again!! Thank you! -
H&M;lipstick

Oh ma I can't believe I'm the first person to review H&M;'s amazing lipstick! I bought it on a whim awhile back because I found a color I really liked, and it's one of the best lipsticks I own! Goes on creamy and pigmented and has a long staying power. Great value for money. It does leave a bit of a line on my lower lip after several hours so it requires reapplication. But other than that, solid 5 stars from me and will definitely be purchasing other colors. -
Mirabella vinyl lipstick
I received a Mirabella vinyl color lipstick in a beauty box some time ago. At first I didn't think the color would suit me so I put it away and didn't use it. Oh boy what was I missing! This is one of the highest quality lipsticks I've ever owned... +
I received a Mirabella vinyl color lipstick in a beauty box some time ago. At first I didn't think the color would suit me so I put it away and didn't use it. Oh boy what was I missing! This is one of the highest quality lipsticks I've ever owned. Does not fade, feather or get cakey. Lasts a good 5 hours and even withstands a light meal. Very pigmented and overall a wonderful product. Highly recommended. -
Vichy Pureté Thermale 3-in-1 One Step Cleansing Micellar Solution
OBSERVATIONS: I am 34, with normal/oily skin. I've been using this cleansing solution for about 4 weeks. It definitely cleanses the skin as well as it promises to. It also advertises that it has a toner in it, I don't really care about toner, but... +
OBSERVATIONS:
I am 34, with normal/oily skin. I've been using this cleansing solution for about 4 weeks. It definitely cleanses the skin as well as it promises to. It also advertises that it has a toner in it, I don't really care about toner, but it's nice if there is a little extra something in the product that other micellar waters do not have. It also advertises that it has eye make remover in it. I did not find eye make up removal very effective.
PROS:
- cleanses skin perfectly fine
CONS:
- price
- removal of eye make up not great
CONCLUSION:
Would not repurchase again due to the fact that is exactly like other cheaper micellar waters, ie Nivea.

OBSERVATIONS:
I'm 34 years old and do not currently have any wrinkles around my eyes, so this is the first time using an eye cream consistently for this long. I've been using this cream for about 4 weeks now, applying every evening under the eyes and in the crows feet area (never on the eye lid).
PROS:
- application felt nice and refreshing, it went on nice and cool
- left no residue
- did not notice any change to my under eye area but I don't have wrinkles - I suspect this is a preventative cream so with continued use, it will prevent the formation of wrinkles?
CONS:
- price
- applicator. I did not use the applicator in the way the bottle instructed to. I tried using it that way the first two nights and it just stuck to my under eye skin, pulling at my skin. Instead, I just squeezed the cream out of the plastic hole, and applied with my ring finger. I know they were trying to be innovative, but it was a poor idea.
CONCLUSION:
Undecided whether or not to repurchase for two reasons:
a) price
b) I am not really sure that under eye creams are actually beneficial in any way in addition to normal moisturizers/face creams.

OBSERVATIONS:
I have been testing this cream for about 4 weeks now. I have found it to very much agree with my skin. I am 34 with normal/oily skin, with no wrinkles, so this cream was ideal for my skin type and age. I have been using a pea sized amount on my face every evening (I prefer to use face creams in the evening as opposed to the morning under makeup). I also use a small amount on my neck.
PROS:
- did not make me break out in any way
- smells absolutely *beautiful* - I look forward to applying it every evening just for the smell!
- goes on silky and leaves no residue
- absorbs immediately
- leaves the skin feeling replenished and well hydrated, and never overly saturated with cream
- I never find that the cream has done funny anything to my skin overnight, it still feels quite hydrated the morning after
CONS:
- price
CONCLUSION:
Would consider purchasing again, but the price is a bit of a deterrent.

I thought this product was fine, I used the whole bottle and it left my skin feeling happy. But I have stopped using toners, as I have heard numerous dermatologists say that they are not really necessary. So I've decided to cut the cost and stop purchasing toners. The "Simple" toner was the last one I bought. -
NIVEA Pearly Shine Lip Balm
Haha! Yeah pretty much exactly what KelseySomerville said - it's moisturizing but that frosty look - uh uh. No thanks! Also did not find this one as moisturizing as the balm in the blue tube or the nivea lip butters in the round tins. Bought once... +

This is the most nourishing and moisturizing lip balm i have EVER used! I have used other nivea ones (ie the lip butter) but this one is so hydrating, it's hard to beat. No smell really, and so luscious - makes my lips feel great. I generally apply before bed and wake up with super soft lips so my lipstick applies perfectly! -
