I received the Super Energex for free as part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club. To be brutally honest, this was just a big ol' pile of nope for me! I had high hope that it would work and was really eager to open my first tube. It was disgusting!
Firstly, the product comes in these ridiculous plastic ampoules thingies that you have to cut apart and then cut open with scissors. Not a fan. When you do cut it open, you are hit in the face with a horrible smell or herbs mixed with medicine or something? Just awful.
I followed the instructions closely and tried mixing it with water on the first day...that was a mistake. It comes out in a bizarre orange, green, brown shade which is revolting. And the taste...don't believe the box...it has no orange flavouring! It tastes like what I imagine a swamp would taste like. It is murky and stinky and medicine-like. Atrocious! I had to chug several glasses of water and was still left with an awful aftertaste. I even tried mixing it with juice on subsequent days, as the box suggested, but the putrid taste just shines through.
As far as effectiveness, I really didn't notice any difference. I struggled through drinking it to try and give an honest assessment, but I honestly didn't notice any improvement in energy, stress, fatigue, etc. I will not be buying these, nor would I recommend them.

I received the Nutriforme Bars as a free sample from the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club. I was really excited to try them but was a bit let down. They were just...meh...okay I guess? The chocolate tasted a bit chalky to me. You could definitely tell that they were a diet bar. On the plus side, they do keep you full for a really long time, which is good. The texture was super dense and not overly pleasant to eat. Overall, I would not see myself buying these or recommending them. I would rather spend my calories elsewhere on something more satisfying taste-wise. -
Kraft Smooth Peanut Butter

I am a peanut butter addict! Kraft is an absolute dream. It is so creamy and delicious. It works well on its own (yes, I've eaten it straight from the spoon!) and also in baked goods. Kraft peanut butter is my go-to brand for a peanut butter fix. It's the best. -
NIVEA Pearly Shine Lip Balm
I received the Nivea Pearly Shine Lip Balm from Chick Advisor and I really like it! It feels really smooth and hydrating on my lips. It has a slight shimmer & tint which is pretty. I like the flavour as well. I will definitely buy it again.

I received the Nivea Q10plus Anti-Wrinkle Serum Pearls from the Chick Advisor Product Review Club. I've been using it for the past week or so & am pretty pleased with the results so far. The serum is a weird colour and consistency when it comes out of the pump, but believe me, it does blend in well to your skin. I found that it absorbs well and a little bit spreads pretty far. They say that you can wear it day or night, but I chose to only wear it while I slept. I found the scent a bit strong, almost cologne-like, which was fine for at home, but definitely not in my scent-free workplace. Since using it, I think my skin is looking a bit more plump and a lot more smooth. I definitely feel that my skin is more supple and has a bit of a healthy glow about it. I'm hoping with continued use my wrinkles will start to diminish. I like the serum & considering the quality of the ingredients would probably buy it again. -

I received the Nivea In-Shower Cocoa Butter Body Lotion through the Chick Advisor Product Review Club. I love it! It smells so good! The lotion is quick to apply and has a nice creamy consistency. A little bit goes a long way, which is nice. It rinses off well & doesn't leave any sticky or oily residue on your skin. It does make your tub a bit slick, so be careful. After I use it, my skin feels soft and moisturized all day. It really is an awesome product and I would totally buy it again. -
Home Outfitters
I love Home Outfitters, I just wish that I could afford it. It's a very stylish store with awesome products. If I had a ton of money, I would totally shop there all the time. Make sure you look for coupons before you go!

JYSK - Bed, Bath and Home
JYSK is just an "okay" store for me. It is pretty affordable, but they lack quality. Many of their products look & feel cheap. I would shop there for items I don't expect to last a long time (seasonal outdoor decor, etc.)

Garnier Whole Blends Honey Treasures Repairing Shampoo
Iso far I'm really enjoying this shampoo & conditioner. My hair is soft & manageable when I use it, which I love. The smell is really nice. It's kind of sweet smelling, without being too overpowering. I would probably buy it again.
