My Marvis Toothpaste review

by // // Comments off

I bought this travel size Marvis toothpaste for $6 and just wanted to try it out. I finished it and I will NOT buy the full size.

The full size is 2.5 oz for $10.5. You can find this brand at Nordstrom, Sephora and lot of other department stores that sell prestige brands.

marvis-tooth-paste

2 reasons I am not buying the full size:

  • Expensive
  • Not much better than the toothpaste you get from drugstores.

So far, I like the Tom’s of Maine toothpaste the best! Even if Marvis drops the price as much as Tom’s of Maine, I’ll still choose Tom’s of Maine. I like it’s more natural and gentle. My dentist recommended it.

My Sample Review: Jergens BB Body Perfecting Skin Cream

by // // Comments off

This is a free sample from purchase – Jergens BB Body Perfecting Skin Cream. I emptied this tube and let you know what I think about it.

  • Full size is 7.5 oz, $9.79 at Walmart, $9.99 at Target, $12.99 at Ulta.
  • My sample size is 2 oz – a $2.69 value.

jergens-bb-body-perfecting-skin-cream-sample

I use it as a hand cream and like it! Because it’s moisturizing, not greasy and absorbs into my skin quickly. I am able to twist a door knob not too long after applying it.

The shade I got is light. It didn’t give me much color but I don’t care about that much anyway.

It does contain paraben.

Q: Will I buy it?

A: Yes and No. If they remove paraben, then definitely Yes! I use my hands to feed myself and kids all the time and I prefer not to eat unwanted chemicals. But, I am still happy to receive it as a free sample.
