Calily Life Organic Deep Cleansing Activated Charcoal Mask with Dead Sea Minerals

When you end up in reviewer life, you occasionally get products that you THINK you're not going to like.  See, I am my Mother's Daughter and that woman is allergic to EVERYTHING.  -I Promise, she really is.   The older I get, I'm finding I have more sensitive skin and my body reacts crazy to things it shouldn't.  I've always had an issue with cleaners and peels making my face break out, but I opted in to review this and was on edge the whole time. 

The container is rather large.  It says it's 8.5 oz, which is more than a cup of the charcoal mask.   It's kind of think and gray and goes on rather easily.   Once it's applied and it starts to dry, it did get a bit cold and tingly for me.  This honestly made me panic a bit but I mustered through it.  I sat around for 25 minutes (you're supposed to sit around and let it dry for 15-20 minutes) and it wasn't completely dry but I figured it had been on my face long enough. 

It washed away easily with some lukewarm water.   Once I had rinsed my entire face, I was amazed at how soft my face felt.  It's been three days now and my face never broke out from it.   I would say my pores do look smaller.  I look forward to trying it again in a few days.  -You're only supposed to use it once a week.

Calily Life Organic Moroccan Argan Oil Shampoo & Conditioner Set

This morning I woke up and had to wash my hair before I went to my kid's school to partake in "Muffins with MOM".  I figured I should go ahead and try out the Moroccan Argan oil Shampoo & Conditioner set, since I tried out the Tea Tree a few days ago.  

Here are my findings:

I actually found myself PREFERRING the tea tree shampoo & conditioner set over the regular Moroccan Argan oil set.  Don't get me wrong, the Argan oil set isn't bad, but the overall feel of my hair, afterward, was just BETTER with the tea tree oil set.

These are the same size bottles as the tea tree oil set.  They're around 33.8 FL oz  bottles.  They're HUGE.   The pump on my shampoo didn't work.  I had to take lid off and mess with a pump for a bit before I could get it to actually squirt out my shampoo.  The shampoo is clear and doesn't have much of a smell.  -Maybe a slightly nutty citrus scent.   It's very light.

I washed my hair.  It foams nicely and rinses out quickly.  However, my hair almost felt like straw, before I got the conditioner into my hair.

As you can see in the photos, I squirted out way too much conditioner.  The conditioner is a bit thin, but it goes on nicely and rinses out easily.  I wasn't able to brush my hair as easily as I was with the tea tree, but it was still pretty nice.  Once my hair dried, it looked shiny and nice... I just think I'm partial to the other at the moment.  This is still a pretty good shampoo & conditioner set and well worth the money.  

I did receive this set at a discounted price.

Calily Life Coconut Lime Bubble Bath

You put the lime in the coconut, and then you take a bath! <---- See what I did there?  You're singing it.  Aren't you?  Don't lie to me.  You know you're singing it. 

This is another amazing product from Calily... Seriously.  I am impressed with their products so far.  I cannot count the number of times I have come across bubble bath and was not the least bit impressed by it.  But this stuff....There's a lot to love about it.

1. The bottle is once again HUGE!  33.8 Fl Oz of bubble bath.
2. It smells great.   Even when you pour it into the tub, the bubbles smell like coconut lime. 
3. It is soooo extremely sudsy it isn't even funny. I MIGHT have put in a little too much and had the most amazing bath tub filled with bubbles. -This is a concentrated formula, so a little goes a long way; this means your 33.8 FL Oz will last a very long time.

4. The bubbles last a long time.  I was soaking in the tub over half an hour and still had a tub full of bubbles. 
5. It doesn't leave a weird residue on your skin or in the bath tub. 

If you're interested in finding out for yourself, how great this stuff smells and makes bubbles, check them out on Amazon and purchase a bottle here.

I did get this at a discounted price, BUT, I'm loving it! -Not like McD's because I Don't love that.

Calily Life Organic Tea Tree Shampoo & Conditioner

I'm gonna be honest here.
A. "Tea Tree" shampoo & conditioner made me EXTREMELY nervous.
B. Sometimes it's difficult to visual exactly how large 33.8 Fl Oz. is...


In my own personal life, I tend to use a lot of essential oils and depending on the company, Tea Tree oil isn't always exactly a pleasant smell.  It can be extremely strong and medicated smelling.  -Almost like Dog Shampoo.

That is definitely NOT the case with this shampoo.  The smell is much lighter than I expected and almost has a lemon or slight citrus scent.  It is not overpowering and does not make you smell like you just washed your head with your dog's medicated flea dip.

Now let's talk about the size.  These bottles are HUGE and Glorious.  For the price, I would not be upset at all... had I paid the full price.  It's $20(ish) for a HUGE bottle of Shampoo & Conditioner.  I mean... think about a regular bottle of Soda.  They're usually around 12 Fl Oz...  These are 30-33 Fl Oz.  So it's more than double a bottle of soda.

The shampoo is clear when it comes out.  It foams up great in your hair and rinses out easily.

The conditioner seemed a bit thin and runny to me, but it honestly left m hair feeling AMAZING.  I sat around with a towel on my head for quite a while and hours later went to brush my hair.  No tangles.  -For me, this is a make or break with any shampoo & conditioner.   A little bit of conditioner went a long way.  It was thin but worked wonders on my hair.  When I woke up and brushed my hair again, my hair was silky, shiny and smooth.  I am definitely IMPRESSED.  Granted this stuff will last me a while, but I might have to get more when I'm starting to get low.  I love it.

Find yours on Amazon, here.

I did receive this shampoo & conditioner at a discounted rate, but this is honestly how I feel about it.
