OURS BY CHERYL HICKEY REVIEW OF PRODUCTS

Happy Monday,


I hope all of you who celebrated Mother's Day this weekend had a wonderful day full of love, family, being spoiled, and that you were treated like a queen. I was very happy with Mother's Day, and spending it low key with my two favourite people my husband and child. Those two are all I need in this life. 

Moving on, this is my actual review post of the OURS products that were sent to me, and now that I have had several days to test them out I can provide you all with an honest review.

OURS AVAILABLE ONLY AT REXALL STORES 
PRICE RANGE 11.99 OR 14.99 DEPENDING ON THE ITEM




3 IN 1 HYDRATING OIL
240ML $14.99




This product can be used for hair, skin, or massage. I find I have been using this product most for my legs. I have such dry skin due to circulation issues that as soon as the oil hits my skin it's as if my skin is hungry and eating it up in two minutes flat. My legs feel amazing after I shave and apply it immediately after. I like the extremely gentle natural scent of Lavender playing in the background without being overwhelming, giving me a headache, or making me choke for that matter.I also like rubbing this around my cuticles after a shower as well. I won't be using this on my hair as it's a grease pit as it is, no help needed in that department.

EVERYBODY LOTION
480ML $11.99




My husband and I, and our son all agree this is a big winner. It works well and my son and I think it smells like tea. My son more specifically said earl grey tea which makes sense as he is smelling the Bergamot and I do to along with the mandarin orange. I find it absorbs quick and my skin feels very smooth. The big plus is my son has had no issues with his skin becoming itchy, and red, he says he finds it relaxing and nice when I apply it after his shower. I love that I have been able to apply this to my face with no signs of irritation that in itself is a feat. Also, the amount you get is very generous and will last a fair bit as long as everyone is not over using it. If you are one person using it this will go a long way.

FACE & BODY EXFOLIATOR
240ML  $11.99




Let me start by saying the exfoliator is a nice product that works well at getting my makeup off and sloughing off dead skin. I like that this product uses the natural jojoba beads as it's source of exfoliation and not plastic, which, for the most part, is why I have never been a huge fan of exfoliators in general. Don't even get me started on exfoliators that use ground up nut shells, whose terrible skin damaging idea was that? 
The face and body exfoliator I have only used on my face so far, and no one else in the household has tried it as of yet. On the bottle, it says you can leave it on for 10 minutes as a calming and conditioning mask. So one of the nights of testing I did so for about 8 minutes, unfortunately, this method did not work for me. I have rosacea in my cheek & nose area and leaving the exfoliator on heightened the redness in those spots after rinsing and for a while after. However, I have no problems using it for quick cleansing, I just can't leave it on my skin. 

Overall I am pleasantly surprised and pleased with the OURS collection which consists of 8 products, and I definitely would repurchase. I am also interested in trying out the Anything Balm and the Head to Toe wash. I would love to find a product that I can wash my hair and body with, and everyone in the house can use to. 

The other products in the collection are 
  • 2 in 1 conditioner
  • 3 in 1 cleansing oil
  • 24hr face cream
At my local Rexall it seems the hot sellers are the Head to Toe wash and Anything Balm as they were sold out.


Just keep in mind that no one product in any brands line is going to be able to cover such a huge scope as skin care concerns. Many people have varying degrees of skin issues and for many different reasons that it is too hard to narrow it down and be able to help every single person in one shot. You have to find a happy balance of what works for you, which can literally take years and plenty of trial and error.
