Cetaphil® Gentle Skin Cleansing Cloths

****Received this product complimentary for testing purpose from Influenster****
I've heard if Cetaphil before but I never used their products. Why? To be honest, I don't know but I was excited when I opened up my VivaVoxBox and saw Cetaphil cleansing cloths. There are 25 pre-moistened towelettes  and are supposed to be great for sensitive skin. Well what do you know, I am one of those people with sensitive skin. If you have read my other post you will  notice I mention it a lot haha. Anyways, the towelettes are thick, unlike competitors brand where they are really flimsy. These towelettes are sturdy and are prepared for a very dirty face lol, simply, they are great quality. They are super soft on the skin and remove all makeup with one cloth. Unless you wear clown make up THEN you might want to use a few more. The only problem I encountered was that they were a little dry. Now, I don't know if it was just my pack or that's how they come  but I will be buying another pack to see. I suggest you do the same :)

Quick review of E.L.F eyelid primer


PROS: Cheap!
CONS: Very little product.
QUICK TIPS: Buy often
I have been using E.L.F eyelid primer for over a year and have enjoyed it. I really love how cheap it is, only $1!! It last for up to 6 hours which is great for date night, it really keep my eye shadow in place. The only problem I have with it is that there is not much product in the container. It seems like a lot but it really isn't but I guess that's what you get for a dollar aye. Another thing was that if you don't use it within the month you should probably throw it out, in my experience it starts to clump up after a month. I tried saving money and stopped using it less often so it would last, mistake, it dries out and clumps up. I still gave it an A as this has been the only primer that has lasted longer than most I would just recommend buying 2 at a time and using it within the month.
