  1. The Vagisil Scentsitive White Jasmine Intimate Wash was one of my RR picks. Really like the wash. I got a sample of the Innisfree Volcanic Clay Mask, I think this is another version of it in 'calming'. I reviewed quite a few products in this line and they were all really good.

  2. I'm thrilled that Neat Feat is now on Bh! I've been buying their Face Saver for a few years – I'll have to write a review!

    I've been buying the old 1000Hr 2-step Lash & Brow dye for decades, so I'd like to try their new 1-step version. I recently bought a pack of the 2-step one on sale for 50% off, so it'll be at least a year until I can try the new one.

  3. I thought the name sounded familiar but I thought it might have something to do with feet. I've used Face Saver in the past too but I haven't used it in a long time. Might be time to try it again.

  4. I remember pureTAN was with Bh a few years ago. I've noticed that the old reviews, some as far back as 2014, are back up.

    It's reassuring to see that some brands that leave Bh end up returning – & that our old reviews go back up, too.

  5. I also love that our reviews pop back into existence too – it's actually quite entertaining to read an old review or two! I feel like I write differently to what I did back then – funny how we change our styles.
