Nirvana Rose Dry Shampoo Review: (added 5/10)

I was quite impressed! This fragrance with notes of Rose de Mai, Geranium, and Vetiver is lovely. The mist was fine, and left no weird white residue in my medium brunette hair. I wash my hair every other day, and the slight oil in my hair was eliminated by the product. It did also give some volume at the roots without feeling heavy which is great, as I don't like the feeling of a lot of product in my hair. The fragrance is subtle to moderate in strength, without being overpowering. I was excited to try the Nirvana Rose scent first, because I have not smelled it before. 

Kora Organics Noni Glow Face Oil, described as a luxurious, powerful yet delicate treatment oil for the face and neck. It has antioxidant and essential fatty acid rich oils to smooth, nourish and brighten the skin. Kora Organics is founded by Miranda Kerr.

Initial Review of the Kora Organics Noni Glow Face Oil: (added 5/11)

Initial thoughts on the Kora Organics Noni Glow Face Oil:

It has a sweet, yet pleasant fragrance I would describe as fruity/rose. The scent is quite strong and lingered on my skin for several hours after application. I have sensitive, combo skin with dry cheeks and an oily nose and forehead. On the box it says the oil is suitable for all skin types. My skin has not reacted or broken out, and the dryness in my cheeks already feels improved by the oil. Here is a photo of the ingredients for anyone curious about it. I will report back again in a few days as I continue to use the product.

The gift box was so beautifully presented, with everything individually wrapped, and even some chocolate! ❤

I will report back my thoughts as I try each product, and post swatches of the Nudestix pencils. 🙂

Congratulations @angel7594 and everyone else who received this awesome gift!  I'm looking forward to the Nudestix swatches/reviews (like everyone else!).  I'm not familiar with Kora Organics so I'd like to hear what you think about the oil.  I already know about the Ghirardelli's!  😄

This is gorgeous @angel759 😍! It even looks comfortable. I can't wait to try them out 😆

[angel7594]

@Mcakes thank you! ❤ It is one of the most comfortable matte formulas I have tried. I did put a tiny bit of clear balm underneath, since I had a dry patch.
