Good & Simple Cranberry Orange + Flax Bars
These were a bit sweeter than I would have liked them to be, fitting them more into the treat/indulge category. I look for more healthy snacks to pack to work or gym. Also would very much prefer a dairy-free option as cutting diary out of my diet... +
These were a bit sweeter than I would have liked them to be, fitting them more into the treat/indulge category. I look for more healthy snacks to pack to work or gym. Also would very much prefer a dairy-free option as cutting diary out of my diet now. Do love the flax addition though, and the cranberry was nice, maybe not so much the orange, but rather a lemon? -
Good & Simple Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Muffins
Great tasting muffins with a light and spongy texture with full flavour. Can taste the oatmeal quite well and very grateful for the simple ingredients. I found them to be a touch on the sweet side though, so are more appropriate as a snack/desert... +
Great tasting muffins with a light and spongy texture with full flavour. Can taste the oatmeal quite well and very grateful for the simple ingredients. I found them to be a touch on the sweet side though, so are more appropriate as a snack/desert rather than breakfast. Less sweet also would be healthier, which of course is the goal. I do wish they were dairy-free and egg and made with something like coco/almond/cashew milk instead, as transitioning away from dairy/eggs now. If they were dairy/egg free, I would buy again in a heartbeat! Also think $1/muffin is more reasonable a price considering it would cost maybe $5 to make a whole batch at home. -

Used this product every day after showers for about 2.5 weeks, did notice firming (but in combination with exercising and coffee exfoliations and relatively heathy diet). Good scent but not a fan of the greasiness of oils, just felt uncomfortable after. I did notice that results replenished with stop of use, so would need to buy another to upkeep the results, but think will stick to the cream version! -

Used this product every day before bed for about 3 weeks, did notice firming and tone evening (but in combination with exercising and coffee exfoliations and relatively heathy diet). Good scent and applied well, not too thick or greasy and rubbed in nicely. Too risky to stop using the product as getting more sun exposure due to summer so need to buy another to upkeep results! -

Received as part of product review club. Definitely preferred the peanut butter chocolate over this one. This flavour was suitable as a post dinner desert. Would prefer slightly less calories and fat, maybe something around 150-160 and always prefer to have dairy free options. Next time should try to use a vegan protein as the dairy upset my stomach. Also would not pay $3 for one bar in a store -

Always look for multi-purpose cleaning products as hate having cluttered cleaning basket and cupboards. Also too annoying to switch between products so often.Only thing to watch for is toxicity, as I prefer green cleaners. Have pets at home so don't want to them walking on, licking, or breathing this stuff in. -
