  6. Moisture

Here are the products I received:




I received:

  • Pantene Pro-V Ultimate 10 BB Creme Shampoo
  • Pantene Pro-V Ultimate 10 BB Creme Conditioner
  • Pantene Pro-V Ultimate 10 Beauty Balm for Hair

I've only ever had good things to say about Pantene in the past and and today is no exception. This is a really good collection of products. My hair was really damaged prior to using and through using the Pantene Pro-V Ultimate 10 BB Creme products it's feeling much softer and silkier. Plus the products smell nice! My favourite product of the 3 would be the Beauty Balm for Hair. It spreads nicely throughout my hair and doesn't leave it greasy or oily. I even use it in the kids' hair after swimming lessons!

I would definitely recommend these products if you're looking for a solid shampoo system that won't break the bank. For more info on the Pantene Pro-V Ultimate 10 BB Creme Collection visit www.pantene.com and visit SmartSource for a printable $2 coupon.

Original Tangle Teezer Review

We recently had the opportunity to review the Tangle Teezer brush courtesy of NailPolishCanada.com. The Tangle Teezer is a revolutionary brush that bends and flexes with tangles, not just pulling through, resulting in a painless hair brushing. This was the perfect brush for me to try on Aislinn as she HATES having her hair brushed (since it always seems to be tangled). Let's take a look at the brush first:




Made in the UK! I'm an anglophile so that makes me happy :). It's shaped ergonomically, like a bean. The original Tangle Teezer comes in a variety of colours: black, pink, purple & pink, orange & yellow, and blue & pink (our choice). Here is what the brush part looks like:



The Tangle Teezer works so good, Aislinn loves it when I brush her hair with this brush. The bristles are very flexible but effective. It's fairly compact too so it's great to throw in your purse or pack for travelling.

The Original Tangle Teezer is available for $14.99 on the Nail Polish Canada site. For more information about the Tangle Teezer and other products, visit www.tangleteezer.com

GOSH Cosmetics Review

Today we're reviewing selected items from GOSH Cosmetics, courtesy of ChickAdvisor. GOSH is a beauty products company based in Denmark. GOSH products are sold primarily in Canada at Shoppers Drug Mart. I'd never tried GOSH cosmetic products before so I was super excited to try them out.

Let's take a look at the products I received:



I received:

  • GOSH Forever Eye Shadow Stick in Plum
  • GOSH Prime 'n Set Powder
  • GOSH Lip Lacquer in Funky Lips
  • GOSH Crazy Volume Mascara
I LOVED all of the products. My favourites would be the Forever Eye Shadow Stick and the Prime 'n Set Powder. The Forever Eye Shadow Stick glided on so smoothly and stayed put - plus I loved the colour! The Prime 'n Set Powder is really cool. You apply in under and/or over makeup to help it stay. I personally used in on top with a face primer underneath my makeup, and I fould that it was great at absorbing shine without drying out my skin.

I need another mascara like I need a hole in my head, but the Crazy Volume Mascara is a solid mascara. The brush looks like a catapiller and does add a lot of volume. The Lip Lacquer is more of a lip gloss with a lacquer smell (not good). It is moisturizing though and applies smoothly. I wasn't crazy about the colour but it's surprisingly flattering on.

I'm really impressed with the quality of GOSH's cosmetics products, and they are priced very reasonably. For more information on GOSH products, visit www.goshcosmetics.com
