COPPERTONE® CLEARLYSHEER™ SUNSCREEN

received this product complimentary from BzzAgent for testing purposes.


Summer is upon us! Today, in Oregon-where I am from, is supposed to get to 100 degrees!!! Now to some that may be nothing but to us Oregonians that's inferno hahaha, we are used to the rain and clouds. Luckily I'll have my Coppertone Clearly Sheer Sunscreen For Sunny Days in handy. This product is super lightweight, I put some all over my body and it felt like I didn't put any on unlike others that feel cakey. It smells great and is super absorbent. It took a few seconds to fully absorb into my skin and it left me feeling soft all over. It is water resistant for about 80 minutes, I wish longer but I don’t mind putting it back on. It is broad spectrum SPF 30 which I love and only cost about $9.00 and totally worth it. Tip: make sure you shake well before use.

Quickly before I go the only con I found with this is that if you get super hot the product gets super greasy and rubs off kind of white on clothes.

Montagne Jeunesse Manuka Honey Peel Off

**** I received this product free for testing purposes from Influenster ****

Let me start off by saying that I love that this company is animal cruelty free!

I'm not much of a face mask person but thought I'd try it out. It wasn't as sticky as I thought it would be as its a honey peel so I was for sure thinking I was going to have a bad experience but to my surprise it was very smooth.  It smelled just like honey too. The steps to applying are simple; clean your face, apply mask, relax 15-20 minutes and peel. At first I thought I did it wrong, even with these simple instruction, as it did not feel like anything was hardening  and there wasn't much color on my face it had more of a transparent look to it. My thoughts... "great, only I would mess up something so simple." I waited 20 minutes and rubbed a little on the side and slowly peeled. It worked!
My face felt soooo smooth and it even cleaned my pores. The only problem I had was that I got some on my eyebrows and when I peeled it pulled hair and hurt a little but that's about it... other than that I had no problems with this product. I cant wait to try all the other peels this company has to offer
