Dove Dry Shampoo
Dove claims: Better style comes through better care. That's why Dove® has reinvented its styling collection to nourish and protect hair for a long-lasting, beautiful style. Our weightless formula absorbs oil to transform hair from lifeless to bouncy so you enjoy style that looks and feels refreshed with a freshly-washed scent, even when you skip your regular wash.
What I think: I wanted a dry shampoo that I could use in between washes, but this is good only if your hair has a lot of (natural) oil after 3-5 days, not every other day or it will dry out your hair. It smells nice at first, but can be strong if you use a lot like me (since I have long, thick, hair). This Dove Dry Shampoo does leave a white/ gray color on my dark hair, but after you massage it in, there is no color. This product is affordable so it it's not a big deal if it doesn't work out, but overall, I wasn't pleased with this.
Tom's of Maine Original Care Unscented Deodorant
Tom claims: Tom’s of Maine's Original deodorant stick provides clinically proven 24-hour odor protection. This aluminum-free deodorant stick uses the botanical ingredient hops to inhibit the growth of odor-causing bacteria to keep you feeling confidently fresh throughout your day!
What I think: I bought this because I wanted to start using a natural deo. Since it is "natural" it was a little more expensive than other deos. but if it worked well, I wouldn't mind. Tom's "unscented" deo. smells like ginger. I like the smell of ginger, but not on my body, so this wasn't good. Also, after I put this on, my armpits felt wet, which is uncomfortable. I like that it is gel however, and I don't think it is due to this that it feels wet because I have used gel deos. in the past and there wasn't any issue (except they weren't natural). This was my first Tom deo. but I bought a different one to give it another chance.
Bath and Body Works Warm Vanilla Sugar body cream
What I think: I received a set of body wash, body cream and body mist in this scent from a coworker. I wouldn't have picked it out for myself, but it isn't bad. The body wash isn't my fav. since I got use to St. Ives Oatmeal and Shea Butter Body Wash. I haven't used the body mist because I use perfumes, but the body cream is worth mentioning. My fav. way to use BBW lotions is on my feet at night. After I lather my feet in the thick cream, I wear woolly socks and sleep in them. My feet stay moisturized and even smell good! I've done this with other BBW creams as well ;)
Black Opal Even True Tonecorrect Fade Crème
BO claims: Discover the solution to renewing skin’s natural radiance. Scientifically advanced formula featuring Skin Tone True Complex™ delivery system, a proprietary blend of Hydroquinone, brightening peptides, natural citrus extracts and skin-conditioning natural ingredients, effectively corrects hyperpigmentation, fades dark spots, and diminishes marks from past acne scars restoring skin’s even tone and natural radiance in as little as 14 days.
What I think: I got this after I read on http://www.paulaschoice.com/ that this is one of the best skin lighteners. I have spots on my face from acne so I thought this might help. I used it for about 2 months, but didn't notice a good or bad difference in my skin. I plan to repurchase this to give it another try.
Purell Advanced Hand Sanitizer with Refreshing Aloe
Purell claims: Kills more than 99.99% of most common germs that may make you sick. Leaves hands feeling soft and smooth with Moisturizers and Vitamin E. Triple action moisturizers. Economy size. Perfect for high traffic areas.
What I think: This might be a weird thing to add, but personally, sanitizer is an essential to have in the house and handbag for obvious reasons. I like this scent with aloe over the original, but it still works the same. I do buy other brand of sanitizer sometimes, but you can't go wrong with Purell once in a while. I hate the feeling of sanitizer on my hand even after a few minutes, so I learned to wave my arms back and forth to dry them within a minute or two for sticky free hands. Might look weird to others, but it works :P
Until next time :)
