I found this sunscreen very easy and mess-free to apply being in a spray format. It's very light and works well under makeup. It's less oily than most sunscreens I've used but these is still a bit of oiliness to it. My pale skin needs the 50 SPF so I like that it's this strong. It goes on clear which is rare for a product offering this much SPF. I like that it protects against both UVA and UVB rays and it's great that it's water and sweat resistant for up to 40 minutes. I'm personally trying to make more natural skincare choices, for both my health and the environment, so I'm glad that this product does not contain oxybenzone. The compact bottle size also makes it easy and convenient to grab and take along wherever your day takes you. Overall, it's a very easy to apply sunscreen, offers broad spectrum and strong protection, it's lightweight, great under makeup, and doesn't leave a whitish cast. -

My immediate thoughts were the packaging is very premium - nice, stylish design and environmentally friendly with the cardboard holder, glass bottles, and metal caps. No plastic anywhere which was really nice to see. The ingredients are also high quality, like the inclusion of cane sugar.
I didn't love the taste. It was okay but I found it not sweet enough so the astringency was really apparent. I prefer a sweeter taste so might purchase this product sometimes, but not often.

In addition to monthly menstrual pain, I also have really bad ovarian cysts that rupture every month. Lucky me! This past week was the cyst rupture type of pain so it was the perfect opportunity to give Motrin a try. I typically use Ibuprofen products so wasn't hesitant about switching brands. The dosing was also a good level (400mg) and the pills were easy to swallow. My first impression was that they worked very quickly to tackle some of my toughest pain. I think that has something to do with the liquid gel format which I will seek out more often in the future. The pain relief was adequate and I was surprised how long it lasted. I worry about taking too much pain relief medication sometimes so it was ideal how long this product continued to work so you can cut down on dosing. Overall, I wasn't pleasantly surprised with the quality and effectiveness of this brand and will be seeking the product out again in the future.

I thought this was a pretty good product. The nutritional benefits are awesome - high protein, low calories, low sugar, low carbs, low fat, lots of vitamins and minerals. Very easy to drink without being too filling. I thought the product would be a bit thicker - more of a shake, less like milk - but it was still a good, smooth texture. The flavour was decent. I found the chocolate tasted a bit artificial, along with the sweetness of the product was a bit too artificial. Still good but I think I would prefer other flavours. Still, this is something I could drink regularly quite easily. You can't go wrong with the nutritional benefits.

From the first sip, I loved this product. The Caramel flavour is amazing. It doesn't taste artificial at all and doesn't leave a weird aftertaste. I was a bit worried about the product having a weird flavour because of the artificial sugars but it didn't taste artificial at all and I actually found myself craving the flavour. I thought the product would be a bit thicker - more of a shake, less like milk - but it was still a good, smooth texture. The nutritional benefits are awesome - high protein, low calories, low sugar, low carbs, low fat, lots of vitamins and minerals. Very easy to drink without being too filling. This is a something I could drink regularly quite easily. I kinda want to go out and buy more right now actually! The flavour is seriously awesome and you can't go wrong with the nutritional benefits so I would highly recommend. -

Knowing my skin, I decided to use this every second day instead of every day because I didn't want to risk getting dried out. That schedule is working well for me. I was surprised how non-oily this oil is. I used it at night before bed and was pleased it absorbed so well. I don't like the pump as I find it awkward and it tends to drip out easily and make a mess. The bottle recommends I think 4 drops to do your whole face, but I'm using more like 6-7 drops to get good coverage. I think it's a bit too soon to see results on my lines and wrinkles but I have noticed a difference in my complexion overall. My cheeks have a pretty, glowing colour that I love. After one week of using every second night, I am pleased with the results. -

I don't like cream cleansers because they make my skin feel oily and not clean. This cleanser was the same. I do like that it has an exfoliant in it and it did remove my makeup well. What I liked the most was that it smelled amazing. I do imagine it helps with the Rapid Wrinkle Repair system but I'm quite certain I would just use my regular cleanser instead of this one once it runs out. -

We are regular users of the Mott's Fruitsations line of products, including the fiber varieties. They have become a staple in my daughter's lunch box, as a quick snack, and as a healthy addition to breakfast or lunch. The mango peach flavour is another excellent flavour addition to the product line. This variety is sweet with the perfect combination of mango and peach flavours to make it delicious. The high level of fiber is an added bonus. Another great addition to the product range. -

I have very long hair and my natural colour is dirty blonde. I've been using this for a few years, about twice a week before I blow dry and straighten my hair. It's absolutely fantastic. It subtly lightens my hair while giving me completely natural looking highlights. Everyone compliments me on my hair, even hair dressers ask who my colorist is. This product is cheap and the bottle lasts a long time, plus only using it sparingly a few times a week, my hair doesn't get dried out or damaged. Before I found this product I got salon highlights regularly which destroyed my hair. This is much gentler, lets me keep my almost waist length hair looking healthy, offers excellent value in that it's cost effective, and looks more natural than anything a salon could do. I highly recommend this product and pray that John Frieda never takes it off the market in my lifetime! -

As a lover of Vachon Granny’s butter tarts, I had high hopes for this product and I was not disappointed. I love the flaky, golden crust. I love the sweet, creamy filling. But what Vachon has always done perfectly with their tarts is the getting the proportion of crust to filling absolutely spot on. They always get it right and that’s why this product and all of the other varieties in their line are the perfect way to indulge in a tasty treat. Would definitely recommend and will be buying again.
