One thing I am extremely picky about when looking for a sunscreen is whether it leaves the white cast residue on your skin, even after attempting to rub it in. Although the texture of this product is a little runnier than I would like, it was very easy to rub in and left no residue which is great. In terms of sun protection, I live in Canada and it's currently April with temperature hovering around 10 degrees celcius, so I can't speak to how well it protects from a sun potency perspective (but knowing it's SPF 50, it should do the job)!
In terms of scent, it didn't really smell like much which is also a benefit, as I've experienced some stinky sunscreens in the past.

I would start off by saying I am not someone who sweats a lot, but I was happy with the performance of this deodorant. First off, it smells really nice especially if you enjoy rose scent (which I do!) It wasn't overpowering, but I do want my deodorant to smell somewhat powerful in order to combat body odor.
I would definitely buy this product again, although I do have another brand that I really enjoy using when I wear black specifically as it leaves absolutely no reside.

The CLEAN RESERVE H2EAU is a fresh and floral scent that smells amazing! This scent is not overpowering, but is strong enough to make a statement. Perfect for spring and summertime wear, I will definitely be using this on a daily basis! The only downfall is that I prefer spray bottles vs rollerball, but that comes down to personal preference.

I received this sample, although with only 4 gummies provided, don’t feel as though I’m able to accurately speak to its effectiveness. I wasn’t a huge fan of how sweet the gummy is, especially compared to similar products I have tried in the past and for that reason, likely won’t repurchase.

I love the idea of a 3 in 1 serum, and love how it pumps out and you can mix it together. It really made my skin feel nourished and fresh, and is a great edition to my nightly skin routine. The packaging is sleek, and large providing a lot of product.
If you are sensitive to scented facial skincare, this may smell a bit too intense for you, but I absolutely loved the perfumey scent.

To start off, this cream is one of the best smelling ones I’ve came across in a long time. It has a very floral scent to it, but not too overpowering. Unless you really don’t like scented skincare, this is a great choice! Upon application it absorbed into my skin really quickly and didn’t feel like it was heavy. The cream is very lightweight but thick enough to really supply a good amount of hydration and moisture back into the skin! -

I was pleasantly surprised at the results I had from this product. I was initially worried that it might make my hair greasy looking, or make it feel heavy. It did neither, as I only added a dime-sized amount as they suggest. My hair was left feeling soft, and it made it a lot more wavy that it generally dries naturally. Additionally, the actual product smells super nice!!!

I was quite pleased with the actual results from using this product. It kept me dry, was long lasting and left me smelling fresh. A huge bonus was that it left absolutely NO residue which is amazing! I wear black dresses at work and it was perfect for that. The one downside is it leaves a weird strange texture as it is not creamy, the product feels very gritty after application, almost like there's beads of sand. Of course this can't be felt, but when I was washing it off it was quite strange.

I'm always apprehensive of setting sprays because i've had some that are just wayyy too powerful and are hard to apply without putting too much because of this. This one, the mister was perfect! It is light and really has the right intensity for a face sprayer. The actual product felt nice on my face and it works well - my makeup stayed on all day and didn't seep into fine lines. -

I much prefer a light foundation/moisturizer to a heavy thick full coverage foundation, so I really liked this product. It had the colour, to cover over redness and get an even skintone, but it was light enough that it wasn't caked on. It was also very moisturizing which my dry skin needs. I have pretty pale skin and I think this colour might have been a tad too light, but I covered with a facce powder and it blended it quite nicely after all. -
