I really loved using this moisturizer. The formulation was great and, considering I have oily-prone skin, it didn’t leave my skin feeling overly oily or greasy. It felt lightweight and comfortable on my skin, and honestly, this is probably one of the...

I really liked this cleanser, especially for keeping in my shower. My skin always felt super clean after using it, without feeling stripped. OLOS is an Italian brand I’ve been familiar with for several years now, so I’m definitely a fan of this one.

Really liked this serum. It’s designed to target fine lines, and I genuinely felt like my fine lines looked a little softer and more reduced when I used it. I only had a sample size that I received from the ClearDea press preview for their Ulta launc...

This is probably one of the best body creams I’ve ever used, especially because of the formulation. It’s incredibly lightweight and was one of my favorite products to use during the summer months when I don’t want anything too thick or heavy. The tex...

I love using Touchland hand sanitizers because they’re so easy to grab and go, especially living in NYC and taking the subway all the time. I definitely don’t want to be touching subway poles without having hand sanitizer on hand afterward. I love th...

I really enjoyed taking these every day. They’re formulated with prebiotics and probiotics to support vaginal health and freshness, plus pineapple for a really good flavor. They taste great, and I genuinely looked forward to taking them daily.
