April Empties
☑ Garnier Fructis Light Cream Ultra Protect Leave-In Color Resist
This is the first leave-in conditioner I ever purchased, and it instantly got me hooked. It's a total life saver! It leaves my hair super soft, smooth and silky. It is the only thing that has been able to really revive my hair after I bleached it several time somewhere in 2007:
What was I thinking? My hair was totally FRIED!
Repurchase: yes
☑ Vichy Normaderm 7-Day Challenge (samples)
In February, I signed up to take part in Vichy Normaderm 7-Day Challenge, but the samples lasted me far more than 7 days LOL. This is claimed to:
1 Reduces imperfectionsThis product seems to be aimed at oily skin, maybe that's why I didn't really see improvments. I didn't really like the gel texture as it leaves residues if you scratch your skin or try to blend foundation.
2 Mattifies
3 Hydrates for 24Hr
Healthier-looking skin in only 7 days.
Technological breakthrough - Patent pending
Exclusive association of 3 acids used in dermatologist' offices, salicylic acid, glycolic acid and lipo-hydroxy-acid, in a daily moisturizer.
Repurchase: no
☑ Pureology SuperSmooth Shampoo & Conditioner (sample)
There's not a lot I can say about small samples like this. I'm very sceptical about hair products that claim to prevent hair color from fading as it always fade anyway.
Repurchase: no
Repurchase: no
☑ Bliv Off with those Heads Blackheads Sebum Gel (sample)
I have stubborn blackeads on my chin, nose and cheeks and no matter how much I exfoliate, they never seem to come off. This product didn't really help either.
Repurchase: no
Repurchase: no
☑ Biotherm Skin.Ergetic Day and Night Creams (sample)
I got these through Facebook some times ago and I can't say a lot as they have lasted me for about 3 days, but I really enjoyed the scent, and I think the texture is perfect.They smelled of berries, too... yummy!
Repurchase: yes... if they weren't that expensive!
☑ Barielle Total Foot Care Cream
The texture is great, not too light nor too thick, and the scent is very subtle. I got this from Meg's Makeup but I don't think I would repurchase it as it has nothing special and there's many great (and cheaper) alternatives out there.
Repurchase: no
Repurchase: no
☑ Avon Moisture Therapy intensive Treatment Extra Strenght Cream for extra dry skin
I liked this, even though it didn't relieve the itching and roughness of my extra-dry skin (due to eczema), like it's claimed to do. I didn't feel that it provided 24 hour of moisture, but it was moisturizing anyway. I also think the texture is perfectly thick.
Repurchase: yes
Repurchase: yes
☑ Mario Badescu Summer Shine Lotion
There's nothing I liked about this lotion except maybe the scent! It's too light, it isn't moisturizing at all, and I absolutely hated the shimmers (seriously, who would want shimmers in their body lotion?!)
Repurchase: no
Repurchase: no
