I purchased Burt's Bee's lipstick shade, Lily Lake. It's really pretty and nicely pigmented.
The lipstick glides on smooth and lasts several hours. It is also extremely hydrating to my lips, so it will be perfect in the colder temperatures. I also found a good assortment. There are many shades to choose from which would look flattering on many women.

On its own, I like a variety of Dove shampoos and separate conditioners, so it was disappointing to not have good results from Dove's Nutritive Solutions Beautiful Care Shampoo and Conditioner.
Opening up the bottle, the texture was a bit thick, and after wetting my hair and rubbing only a small amount in, I found it tough to fully wash out of my naturally curly hair without several rinses. I did appreciate how soft my hair felt afterwards, but I felt that I spent too much time trying to get the residue out.
Also, the fragrance is too strong! I don't mind a light scent sometimes, but I felt my eyes tearing up. Another negative was the lingering smell even after I finished in the shower and combed and styled my hair.
The only other positive for me was the size of the bottle because it would last a while in my household and only a very small amount of product would be needed for each wash.
Overall though, not a great match for my hair needs.

Dove® Advanced Care Antiperspirant Stick Unscented

Dove Advanced Care Antiperspirant has been wonderful this year, especially because of the excessively hot and humid weather lately! It is very easy to apply, no transfer residue so far and doesn't make my skin feel irritated, wet or sticky.
I am always weary when a product states "unscented" because often there is a strong and overpowering smell, but this one actually has barely a scent at all, which is great.
However, you do need to re-apply if you are doing vigorous activities after a few hours, but that's okay because it is the perfect size for a carry-on bag or even a purse.

McCain Low Salt Straight Cut Fries

I love how McCain's finally came out with low sodium french fries. They are very easy to make in the oven and have a delicious crispiness. We can eat them straight out of a bowl or add a little bit of spices for flavour. They are not greasy at all, which is another added bonus. -

Advil is my go-to product for pain, whether that is menstrual cramps or muscle aches. I find that one liquid gel cap is potent enough to help ease my pain, so I can get back to my usual routine. I am very sensitive to medication, so I am really happy that Advil works well without any major side effects. It is easy to swallow, which is a bonus. The packaging is decent and doesn't have an insanely difficult child-proof cap that takes forever to open. I really trust this brand and will continue to use it. -

Nothing compares to Lysol Disinfecting Wipes. They are highly effective for just about anything from disinfecting the kitchen table to cleaning up a spill. The wipes are really durable too, so they won't fall apart. I also love the scent (lemon is my favourite) because it smells fresh and clean, without making me cough or having my eyes water.
My only complaint would be the packaging, as it is not always user-friendly and once you open it, they will dry out if the lid is not perfectly closed. Otherwise, I love the product and intend on using them on a regular basis.

I found this cereal to be extremely heavy. I had just half a bowl, and it felt like a rock was sitting in my stomach for the rest of the day. The added protein is too much for my particular system, so I wouldn't purchase it again. I didn't find the overall taste very appealing either. I usually enjoy Special K cereal, but this new one doesn't work out. -

I started taking the Jamieson Vitamin D supplements after a blood test revealed that my levels were low. My initial purchase was non-chewable, but I kept forgetting to take them in the morning with breakfast. Buying the chewable chocolate-flavoured ones, I remember daily to take 1000 IU (doctor recommended dosage). I love the chocolate taste, as it is not too overpowering. The size is ideal and they are also easy to chew, so not hard on my teeth at all. I also like that Jamieson often has a good deal on vitamins. I will continue to purchase these. -

One of my favourite chocolate bars that I used to love getting for Halloween! Now, I can just buy it any time that I want. The perks of being an adult! I love the chewiness of a Mr. Big bar! It is pretty sweet, so be prepared for that immediate sugar rush, but how can one resist the delicious vanilla wafer coated in chocolate, caramel and peanuts. Cadbury has a winner! -

I really enjoy Brookside chocolates, and there is a real burst of flavour with this particular dark chocolate acai with blueberry product. Great quality and gives you a genuine chocolate fix without tons of added sugar. A handful would be plenty to enjoy. I also like the resealable bag which is very convenient to take on-the-go and for storage. I wish it was on sale more because the price tag for a bag is a bit steep. -
