Plant Therapy Essential Oils (Lavender & Lemon)



I'll admit that I wasn't really an advocate for essential oils until a few years ago. Now, I don't understand how I went so long in my life without using them daily. Usually I buy my oils from Amazon, Walmart or Target. However, when given the chance to review these two plant-based essential oils, I couldn't pass it up. And I was not disappointed in the least and I find myself only wanting essential oils from this company from now.
From the day these two oils arrived in the mail, I could smell them through the packaging. It was a strong scent but not overwhelming in the slightest. They both just smelled so pure and natural that I had to use the Lavender one straight away. After putting a few drops in my diffuser, it not only filled my bedroom but most of my house with the calming scent of lavender. And even after a few days had passed, the scent lingered throughout my home; despite me not having used my diffuser since that day that I first used it.
The lemon one smells just as good and reminds me of spring. I have taken to putting a few drops here and there, especially in my kitchen and I am very happy with the results that this has given me. My kitchen smells so clean and springy all the time; which puts me in a great mood for sure.
I am already thinking of different scents that I can get from this company, to see what else that they have to offer. If anyone is interested the company is called Plant Therapy and here is their website: https://www.planttherapy.com And from what I can tell, they do offer more than just essential oils so there will definitely be something there for everyone to try out. 

Disclaimer: I was sent these products free for review. I was not paid for my review and this review is my honest thoughts about the product(s).

Ultra-Repair BarriAir Cream Review


Ultra-Repair BarriAir Hand Cream

Hello!
This is my first review for 2019, one of many to come I hope. With the weather being so cold, I figured that this would be a great product to start out with; due to everyone having to deal with damage to their hands with the cold air.
And this product is just what everyone needs in their life, in my honest opinion.

First, the sample that I was sent is a descent size and it fits well in any bag that I carry. But what I have personally done is that I keep on my bedside table, so when I am ready to go to bed I can put it on and wake up with my hands being soft, moisturized and ready for the day. And so far in the time that I have had this product and used it, I have not been disappointed in the slightest. Not only do my hands feel softer but I have noticed that they also look better. Less cracked and dull looking; at least to me.

And for those that have sensitive skin, no worries! It works just as well for sensitive skin as well! The smell is pleasant and the cream goes a long way if you use a little amount. It also doesn't leave my skin feeling greasy, which I have found is my main problem with moisturizing creams/lotions. But that was not the case with this product and I am over the moon with joy that I don't have to wake up with greasy hands.

I have had this sample for over a month and even after using it every night (and some mornings) I think I have enough to make it through the rest of the month. After which, I plan on purchasing the full size product again and again.

This is also the first time that I have ever tried any products from FAB (First Aid Beauty) and I can't wait to try out more products from them, if this cream is anything to go by. I have heard great things about the company as well so it makes me all the more excited to try them.

Well that's it for this blog review. Keep on the lookout for more to come as I have some really great products coming in that I've been wanting to try out! Also if you have any suggestions on products that you think I should review, please leave a comment and I'll be sure to check into it!

Until next time!

Garnier Fructis Nourishing Hair Mask (with Coconut Extract)


Image Source: Google
Today I am going to review a product that I received a sample of from PinchMe. And this product is the Garnier Fructis Nourishing Treat Hair Mask.
I have always loved Garnier and have never tried a product from them that I didn't love the outcome of. In fact, most of my hair products that I use constantly are from Garnier. And this product is no different!
I found this product very interesting, because it can be used in several different ways. It can be used as a one minute mask, a conditioner or as a leave-in conditioner. I myself prefer using it as a leave-in cause I feel I get more benefits from using it this way. I have tried it the other ways but I do prefer using it this way for my hair; cause my hair tends to get very frizzy and this product helps to tame the frizz.
There are other types of this product that have different extracts but I quickly found that I prefer the coconut extract and my hair seems to agree, so I'm not about to argue with something that works.
The sample size that I received was 0.40 fl oz or 12 ml. And to put in perspective about how much product you need to use, I was able to use this sample size three times. My hair is just below my chin, not shoulder length but it is thick. But even with the thickness of my hair, I was able to use the sample three full times and I was pleased. So it really does go a long way if you apply it right. Because I have seen first hand that if you apply it more in one area over another, that area can get to looking a bit greasy; and that is something that I do not want for my hair.
The frizz control is great and works even in rainy weather, which is awesome. I can get two full days of this product and that works well for me cause of the schedule I have to wash my hair. I'm sure that if you use dry shampoo then you might can get another day out of the product but I personally don't like using dry shampoo.
The smell also lingers with your hair and it smells so good. Not overpowering at all which is great, just gives you that subtle coconut sweet scent that follows you around. It's kinda nice, really.
Well that's it for this review. Keep an eye out for the next one!

Until Next Time!

The Make-Up Eraser Review



I received a sample of the Make-Up Eraser, a one-time use piece from the normal larger. I wasn't asked to do a review for this product in exchange for this sample; it was something that the company was offering and I happened to be lucky enough to get a sample of it.

The cloth itself is so soft! However, they do say that since it is a cut sample it does shed fuzzies and is only a one time use thing; though it still removes all makeup just like the larger product does. The larger one is reusable for 3 to 5 years and will last up to 1,000 machine washes. It is also hand-sewn with satin edges so the product itself looks amazing! 



And if the full product is anything like the sample I received, I plan on buying it asap! Not only will I be saving money on buying make-up wipes over and over again for only one time uses but I'll be helping to cut down on trash. And one of the things about the Make-Up Eraser, you don't have to use any product on it; it only uses water! And I can be perfectly honest and tell you that it got all of my makeup off without any trouble, including my waterproof mascara. The cloth is so soft and feels amazing on the skin as well, which is a great plus.  

So all in all, it is well worth the money for sure! Also, if you can only get the original Make-Up Eraser at MakeUpEraser.com and the company was also nice enough to include a few coupon codes so I'm going to share them! 

FULLSIZE20 = Buy 1 Full Size Make-Up Eraser and get 20% off
FULLSIZE25 = Buy 2 Full Size Make-Up Eraser and get 25% off
FULLSIZE30 = Buy 3 Full Size Make-Up Eraser and get 30% off

Until Next Time

Garnier Whole Blends Legendary Olive Shampoo & Conditioner Review



As I stated in the previous, I have never tried a bad Garnier product. And the same can be said for this shampoo and conditioner that I received a free sample of from PinchME. 

It felt super moisturizing and made my hair feel silky and smooth. My hair wasn't greasy looking or anything, like it has been after I tried previous products that contained olive oil in them. So I'm pretty sure Garnier has got the formula right in their products. It smells so fresh and clean as well, not overwhelming at all.

I want to apologize again for such a short review but there isn't much else to say about products such as these other than to try them for oneself and see if you like them. 

Until Next Time

Garnier Moisturizing Bomb Face Mask Review



I can honestly say that so far I have yet to have a bad experience with any Garnier products. And this goes from shampoo to face wash. Their products go above and beyond any of my expectations; which makes me happy because I know that they actually care about their customers. 

This product I have been eyeing for a bit and I am so glad that I finally got to try it. The smell was amazing and it felt so amazing to use. My skin felt amazing after I put on this mask on after a day at a water park. It felt so moisturizing and relaxing, giving my skin some much needed moisture after spending hours in the sun. The mask itself is a good thickness and is completely saturated with a nice, cool product. The coolness of the product lasts the entire time you have the mask on and even goes beyond that after massaging the product into your face. 

There isn't much else that I can say about this product but I do encourage everyone to go out and try it for themselves at least once. You have to treat yourself!

Until Next Time

Goddess Garden Organics - Dream Repair & Face the Day Review



I received a free sample of this and once again, I find myself glad that I didn't pay for it because I was very disappointed in these two products. I don't go out of my way to look for products that are Vegan, mostly because I am not Vegan myself and the thought never crosses my mind. Oh, before I forget here are the full names of these two products: Dream Repair – Sun-Repair Night Cream and Face the Day – Sunscreen and Firming Primer Broad Spectrum SPF 30.

The first thing that I noticed about these two products was the smell. They smelled awful to me! They had a strong burnt plastic smell to them that was stomach turning but I somehow I managed to push through it to try the products. I wish I would have stopped then. Both products were overly sticky feeling and left my skin feeling dry and chapped. It might just be my skin in general not liking the product but it just wasn't working for me. 

Now I don't want to stop anyone from going out and trying it, nor am I saying that anyone who likes it is wrong. This is just my honest opinion for how I felt about these two products, so I don't want anyone to think that I am coming off as mean and whatnot. 

Until Next Time
