Listerine Healthy White anticavity mouthrinse Review!

I received Listerine Healthy White anticavity mouthrinse for free in exchange for an honest review.



So once again I was picked by Crowdtap to try out really cool product, Listerine Healthy White anticavity mouthrinse. If you have watched any of my youtube videos you would know I have made reference to my teeth being yellow from my smoking cigarette years (been 6 years since my last smoke) as well as all of the coffee I drink. I am very self-conscious of my teeth. I have tried many time to get them whiter, outside of going to have it professionally done. I did find he occasional product that would work for a day or two but it wouldn't been long before my coffee drinking made them start to turn again. 

I never really smile. All of my smiles never showed my teeth because I was embarrassed by them . . . 





Here are my teeth before I started he 5 day challenge.




So as you can see they were pretty yellow and that is really embarrassing. You can now see why I never smiled with my teeth before. However that is all going to change now!

So I started this task of the whiter smile in 5 days and I was not disappointed. I do however want to point something out first . . . Follow the directions to a "T" and you will have a higher chance of seeing results. You are suppose to use 10 mL (2 teaspoons) and no more. I found this out the hard way the first time I used it and I just guessed at what 2 teaspoons was. The rinse expands in your mouth and makes a foam almost that coats everything. You must swish is for 1 minute and then spit it out and DO NOT rinse. After you spit it out you're not suppose to eat or drink  for 30 minutes.

The directions are simple to follow and I ended up with great results. 


I tried to get the same lightening in all of my photo but here in Texas the weather is never the same and it can be hard some times. However I do feel as if you can clearly see the difference from my before photos to my after photos. Over all am very please with Listerine Healthy White anticavity mouthrinse and I like that it's super simple to use. Just an extra minute added to my mouth routine and I get to get whiter teeth and maintain them. I like that it doesn't have that nasty teeth whitening product taste and I don't have to use a mouth piece or gel to get my teeth whiter. 

Before and after

Review for Neutrogena products on Crowdtap Vol #2

I'm always talking about my love for Crowdtap and I just have to say it's a real love. Once again I am a lucky member and I get to try two product - Neutrogena Healthy Skin Anti-agin Perfector as well as Neutrogena MoistureSmooth Color Stick - in exchange for my honest opinion!




The MositureSmooth Color stick is probably my favorite out of the two. It's smooth, stays put, smells great and LOOKS great. The one I was gifted to try was Almond Nude 110. I am a big fan of nude colors, they are my go to color for everyday makeup. It's hard to find a nude color chap-stick/lip stick/lip gloss that just looks good with your lip shape and your skin color. This hits all of the key points for me - it's has a great color just like a lip stick (as well as the twisting tube thing), it's has that pop you get from a lip gloss and the moisture your lips crave from a chap-stick. It smells fantastic. I very rarely wear color on my lips but I must confess that I have been wearing this Neutrogena MoistureSmooth Color Stick every day for the past 4 days. That's how much I love it!

 I don't normally use let alone buy a tented moisturizer because I have a problem find the perfect match for my skin tone.I was a little ify at first with the color I pumped out of the Neutrogena Healthy Skin Anti-aging Perfector tube. It looked a lot darker than my natural skin color. However it blended in great! It worked really well to cover the redness and unevenness on my skin. It didn't smell like a sunblock, which is a major plus for me. It went on smooth, absorbed fully, and I felt like I literately had nothing on my face. I like that I can just smooth this one, add some mascara, eye shadow and my MoistureSmooth Color Stick and I am ready to take on my day with a natural looking face. All while helping my skin by keeping it protected from the sun with SPF 20 broad spectrum sunscreen built right in. 


These are my two new favorite products. I love how simple they are to use but how much they give me up-kept look. These two will be making future appearances in all of my I must put makeup on adventures.

I mean honestly I just love the way my face looks in the photo. I look young and viberant and all I have on the the Healthy Skin Anti0aging Perfector and the MoistureSmooth Color Stick. They make such an impact but are just two simple things. Love them!

Review for Neutrogena products on Crowdtap Vol #1

Hello all my lovelies! I was picked once again by Crowdtap to review some awesome Neutrogena products! This is Vol #1 because I got picked to try out two different groups of Neutrogena products.


For this first round I was picked to try the Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Correct & Cover pink grapefruit moisturizer in fair to light as well as Neutrogena Makeup Remover cleansing towelettes fragrance-free.

I want to start with the makeup remover cleansing towelette's. They work! They are soft with a little bit of scrubby stuff added in. Genteal around the eyes and lips. Worked really well when it came time to remove my waterproof mascara. I always like in makeup removing comerical when they use the towelettes and they show you all of the makeup on the towelette. Well I so did that as well!


You can see it even better in my video I created for my review. (I'll add it below) I liked how clean I felt after using the towelette's, I did feel as if they did remove all of my makeup really well. If there was one thing I could change about them it would be to make them a little more soft. However over all I liked them a lot and they are better than some other towelette's I have used in the past. I don't feel dried out, I don't feel oily and I feel clean. So all of those are winner in my book.



Now onto the really awesome Oil-free Acne Correct & Cover pink grapefruit moisturizer. First I want to say that it smells wonderful. When they say pink grapefruit they mean pink grapefruit. It's a welcome change to most moisturizer smells. I really like that it has sort of a matte finish and that it doesn't leave you looking oily or shinny. Which if by now you have read any of my other blogs you will know I have to look that way. It came out like a mousse, soft and fluffy. It covered great and blended in very well. It did look like it was going to be a tad bit darker when I started but after smoothing it in it blended well. I am currently only using one application a day because I am not having any major acne/pimple problem. It worked really well at covering all of the redness I have though and that's a plus for me.






It cover my face and hides all of my imperfections really well and I liked how it feels on my face. It blends well and that photo above is me with just the Acne Correct & Cover on.


Final thoughts is that I like both products. They did their job and they did it well. I like how smooth and matte looking the Acne Correct & Cover was and I liked how well the Makeup Remover Cleansing Towelette's worked.
