Dove Deep Moisture Day Cream (spf 15/ UVA+UVB protection) (Extra dry to normal skin)

I bought this moisturizer a near the end of last year...I think...
And here's what I think about it:

First of all if you guys are acne prone...like very acne prone...I highly recommend this for you because I myself is prone to acne and it has never broke me out!!!!!
~I also believe this is oil free

The packaging:

  • This moisturizer comes in a adorable jar..ITS SO CUTE!!!! (and the jar is actual glass...not plastic haha)
  • Great for travelling because it's so easy to put in your luggage
The smell:
  • This moisturizer has sunscreen smell to it (spf 15) ; however it is no strong at all
The consistency:
  • Has a great consistency, not too thick and not too liquidy
The actual product:
  • it really moisturizes your skin leaving it super dooper soft to the touch!!!! (i can have very dry skin and this makes my skin very soft)
  • Great for the eye area too
  • heard this is great for moisturizing prior to foundation (I don't wear foundation so I can't tell you fro personal experience)





Nivea Lip Balms: Nivea Essential, Nivea Cherry, Nivea Strawberry, Nivea Pearly Shine

As you all know Nivea lip balms are used by many people becuase they are some awesome!! + they have cute packaging
Here is a review on why I love them so much!

Nivea Essential:

  • The quality of this lip balm is quite good. It doesn't make you lips feel waxy and gross. 
  • VERY long which is another awesome powesome thing about this lip balm. It can last a few hours...which many lip balms is not able to do. 
  • Definitely moisturizes you lips and makes them very soft
  • The smell is not strong whatsoever...it kinda smells like...cheese cake???? I'm not sue if that's the right way to describe the smell......the smell smells very nice...I'm sure many people will like the smell
  • it doesn't gove you a glossy or very sheer finish to your lips..one of the best lip balms
Nivea Fruity shine Cherry
  • This is a tinted lip balm...great color pigmentation...it can be worn sheer or you can swipe it a few more times for more color
  • obviously the color is not as intense as lipsticks...
  • it is a deep toned royal redish color...very pretty!!
  • definitely moisturizes your lips...BUT.... doesn't stay on super long
  • Doesn't smell like cherry...smells like a really yummy berry smell
Nivea Fruity Shine Strawberry
  • This is basically the same as the cherry...BUT the red color is brighter
  • it smells like delicious strawberry!!!!...kinda like the fruit roll up candy in strawberry flavor!!!
Nivea Pearly shine
  • This is a tinted lip balm as well
  • it gives you a really nude light pink color on your lips if you build up the color
  • I personally don't like the nude lightish pink on my lips, so I wear it very sheerly and it gives me a very pretty natural pinkish sheer to my lips!!!
  • Doesn't moisturize well
All the Nivea lip balms has no taste when it is applied onto the lips...just yummy smells!!
I recommend all of the balms I mentioned!!!

Review: Garnier Fructis Sleek and Shine Leave in Conditioner





My first post!!!


I got this product a long time ago and thought I should do a review on it!


Claims: 
For dry, rebellious, frizzy hair. Moisturize and gives long lasting humidity. Softens, smooth, nourishes hair. Locks out frizz and fly aways. 5X stronger, 5X smoother
~300 mL


I actually really like this product. This leave in conditioner smells great...like the typical Garnier Fructis products smell...a fruity smell!!!! It has great consistency...not too liquid, not to thick. It's also just a white colour


When using: 
make sure you don't use too much...about a quarter sized amount is enough. You then run it through the bottom half of your hair, then blow dry


Results: 
Really tames my frizz (I have dry-ish hair/ a bit frizzy) After using this leave in I really do see a difference. However, it doesn't tame all of my frizzes completely...but I'm already happy with the results. I'm also not so sure about the 5X stronger part.
~After waking up the next morning after I shower, my frizzes are gone since I slept on them!!!


Overall, I really like this product even though it tames only 80-90% of my frizz. Do really recommend this to anyone!!
~This product is also very affordable....I got mine for around $4 I believe
