BZZAgent: Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition Miracle Dry Oil Campaign 2013

Here is another post about the awesome program that is known as BZZAgent! If you haven't read my other post, BZZAgent is an awesome site that allows you to get put into “Campaigns” and test products, that are totally free, tell others about them (by giving samples they send, or coupons!) and then review them (and of course I’m all about reviewing items). This is my fourth Campaign (previously had Afrin Nasal Spray, Neutrogena Norweigan Hand Creme and Glade Expressions). The site will be linked below if you are interested.

This campaign was pretty simple, I got a Full Sized bottle of Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition Miracle Dry Oil and a BZZGuide! This product will run you about $5.99, but it's well worth it for more ways than one. I will get into that later.



 

This is what I received in my box, obviously very simple. Triple Nutrition Miracle Dry Oil is a breakthrough innovation that is used not only for hair, but for skin as well! You can use this Dry Oil to add a nice shine to your hair, and leave it silky smooth, but you can also use this for dry hands, or dry spots on your face to leave your skin nice and moisturized and hydrate! Taking a look in the BZZGuide, they write that:

• This product blends weightless olive, avocado and shea oils to transform dry hair and skin.


• It's made for everyday use on hair, body and face.


• Instantly absorbs in a touch with no oily residue.


• Can be used on dry or damp hair.


• Available at grocery, drugstores and mass retailers (like Walmart and Target) for a suggested price of $5.99.

Breaking down the product from it's three main ingridients, the BZZGuide tells us that:

• Olive Oil: Moisturizes, protects and replenishes dry hair, improving it's strength and elasticity. Your face and body will benefit from the antioxidants in it that protect skin against damage.


• Avocado Oil: Loaded with Vitamin E, it protects against dryness while locking in color and moisture to keep hair looking radiant and soft. Avocado's natural hydrating abilities promote soft and supple skin as well.


• Shea Oil: Known for having unique healing properties, shea oil rejuvenates damaged hair and leaves it with a healthy shine. It's also a good moisturizer that helps improve elasticity in skin.

Now that I've given you some good insight, I'm going to go into what this product has personally done for me.

Okay, now I'm a Garnier Fructis lover. I love almost everything that Garnier Fructis makes. This product is awesome, but the hair part is just not working for me.

I live in New England (Massachusetts to be exact) and it's very raw and dry in the winter. Usually it's not bad, but this year we've received a blizzard and multiple larger snow storms, so my skin has been drying out. This product works PERFECTLY for my skin! Literally, it makes my hands so soft and it's made the dryness and peeling go away, so I love the product for that. I would probably end up buying it after this runs out just for that fact. I can put the oil on my hands, rub it in, and instantly start to use my electronics without it leaving a greasy residue on the screens or keyboards.

My hair, however, does not like it. I used it twice so far on my hair. Once dry, once wet, and it didn't really work either time. I liked it more on my wet hair than I did dry. When I sprayed it lightly on dry hair, it made it look super greasy and oily. I didn't like looking like I hadn't washed my hair in weeks. I did like how soft it made my hair though. That was an absolute plus. The second time, I sprayed it on my wet/damp hair. I liked that a lot better than spraying it on my dry hair, but it still made my hair look greasy. It parted a lot less than putting it on dry, and still managed to make my hair soft. I may still use it on my hair once in a while to get the silkyness, but most certainly not before I go out.

I have not used it on my face yet, but plan on doing so. I usually have a combination face (cheeks and forehead get oily, but inbetween eyebrows gets very dry) so I will be just dabbing it on my problem areas.

Overall I feel that this product is awesome, but not for my hair, mostly for what it does for my skin.

This product has NOT changed my view on Garnier Fructis, I still love it all the same.

BZZAgent: Glade Expressions Campaign 2013

Well...I finally have my internet back (yay!) so I have a few posts coming within the next couple days. This is the first of many, and it's about my new BZZAgent Campaign for Glade Expressions! For those of you who don't know, BZZAgent is an awesome site that allows you to get put into "Campaigns" and test products, that are totally free, tell others about them (by giving samples they send, or coupons!) and then review them (and of course I'm all about reviewing items). This is my third Campaign (previously had Afrin Nasal Spray and Neutrogena Norweigan Hand Creme) but my first with my new blog! So from now on I will also be writing about my BZZAgent Campaigns as well. I will have a link below if you'd like to sign up for this awesome site! :)

So in the mail a few days ago, after being accepted into their new Glade Expressions Campaign I received a nice envelope from BZZAgent with some coupons for Glade products. These products being the Glade Expressions Fragrance Mist and the Glade Expressions Oil Diffuser. In the coupon booklet (which I tore apart the minute I got it, so there will be no pictures) were 2 coupons for free products. 1 being the Fragrance Mist and the other being the Oil Diffuser. There were also 20 MORE coupons, 10 for $2.00 off 1 Fragrance Mist, making them about $.98 a piece, and 10 for $4.00 off 1 Oil Diffuser, making them about $1.98 a piece, still a STEAL!

Anyways, the two products I received for FREE were:



 

Of course, as you can see for the Oil Diffuser I picked up Pineapple & Mangosteen (whatever that is...) and for the Fragrance Mist I picked up, from their new Spring collection, Starlit Evening.

The Starlit Evening spray is literally the best scent I've ever smelled in my whole entire life. I'm so confused on how something can smell THAT good. I picked this up at my local Walmart, and was pleasantly surprised to see that they already had the spring collection out. Where this is only a limited edition scent, I've planned on using a few of the coupons I haven't given out to go pick a few more up. At $.98 can you beat it (Regularly $2.98)? According to the Glade website:

"Relish a walk under the stars in the warm evening air. This vibrant blend of green hyacinth, ylang ylang, and cedarwood is simply intoxicating."

And intoxicating it is...I found myself sitting in my room last night, watching TV and just sniffing the nozzle. Not only does this spray smell amazing, but it lasts a long time as well. One swift motion spray, and my room smelled like bliss the whole night. I've always been a huge fan of Glade products and this is the reasoning why. They make high quality products, that smell divine, for cheap! It's a win, win, win. The cool thing about this too (that I stupidly didn't take a picture of) is that if you screw off the little black botton on the spray, you can just buy refills and put them in! The refills generally run about $1.98. So once the fragrance runs out, just pop out the can, and throw it away, and keep the plastic holder as a reusable sprayer!



 

This scent, I'm not too pleased about. I honestly do NOT like Pineapple and don't even know what Mangosteen is!?...but this is the only scent I could find after looking in 3 different stores. This whole product just has kind of turned me off. I've had it out of the box and on my counter for almost 2 days now, and it's already losing it's scent. I'm not sure if it's just this one, or if the other oil diffusers act that way as well, but it's almost like the smell isn't strong enough, it's just faintly there. And at $5.98 regular price, I would NOT be pleased to purchase it and have it not work for the 30 days guaranteed. From Glade:

"Take a daily trip to the tropics with the alluring fragrance of juicy pineapple and a hint of tangy mangosteen, ripe coconut and blossoming passionflower."

One thing I will say, is that being someone who doesn't like Pineapple, I personally don't find this to be an overbearing pineappley scent. I think all of the fragrances tie in together very well. I am a huge coconut fan, and like the tropical aspect it adds to it. This does make me want to go on vacation...but that's besides the point. I honestly just wish it would be a stronger scent, or fill more of an area with it's scent.

I'd like to give a special thank you to BZZAgent for allowing me to try these products in my house and to Glade for being apart of it all! :)

-Signing off,
