Gillette Venus Embrace Review #ChooseToSmooth

Monday, March 21, 2016

Influenster sent me Gillette Embrace Women's Razor to review. Gillette Venus Embrace Razors are very flexible. The flexibility and five blades provide a close shave. The flexibility also helps to get around rough areas such as knees and ankles. The razor also seems to create a smooth finish that lasts a long time. The Embrace Razor is vastly different than the disposable razors I normally use and much more effective. The Venus Embrace is probably the most effective razor I've ever used. I highly recommend trying the Gillette Venus Embrace Razor and choosing to be Smooth. To find out more, click here.

I received this product complimentary for testing and review purposes from Influenster, but all opinions are your own. Please note that this post contains affiliate links.

Garnier Whole Blends Review

Saturday, March 12, 2016

Garnier (through Crowdtap) sent me samples of their new product line to try: Whole Blends Honey Treasure Shampoo, Whole Blends Honey Treasure Conditioner, Whole Blends Coconut Oil and Coconut Butter Shampoo, Whole Blends Coconut Oil and Coconut Butter Conditioner, Whole Blends Coconut Water and Vanilla Milk Shampoo and Whole Blends Coconut Water and Vanilla Milk Conditioner.

The Whole Blends product line softened and nourished my hair. I could feel the difference the products made as I washed my hair.  I enjoyed the Coconut Oil and Coconut Butter Shampoo and Conditioner the best. It helped smooth my hair and get rid of the frizz. This a great replacement for a previous product that I used to use that is now discontinued. Garnier products are quality products and the Whole Blends product line are a representation of this. I highly recommend trying the Whole Blends line. To learn more about Whole Blends, click here.
