I was able to try this product for free through Chickadvisor Review Club.
The smell of this product was nice, not strong and harsh like many other's on the market. I found this product however to leave my hair flat and lifeless looking. I also noticed a bit of a residue left behind, and I tried spraying different lengths away just in case I was using it wrong. Every time, same thing.
I put that I would recommend it because perhaps someone else out there would have better luck. Not every product is good for every hair type, and perhaps I just have one of those hair types that's not good for this product.

I received this for free to try through the Chickadvisor Product Review.
First I noticed was that it's in a glass bottle. I wasn't too keen on that, as I was worried about potentially dropping it, or it getting knocked off the shelf and breaking. I also have a busy house with 5 children, and face it, accidents happen. I would prefer this product if it was in a plastic bottle instead.
This product didn't leave my hair oily or geasy looking, which was a concern of mine. Instead, my hair seemed soft and silky after using it. I only used a couple small pumps of the product, and I think if I used anymore as per the directions it would have turned my hair into an ugly mess. A little goes along way!
Another thing, I wasn't too keen on the scent. I enjoy products that leave my hair smelling great, and this just seemed to be another plain, product that smelt mediocre. It it had say a more coconutty smell or even floral I would like it much better.
I may not buy this all the time, as, like I said, a little goes a long way, but especially for the winter months, I will treat my hair to a little extra help once in a while.

This product seems to work really well. My hair is left soft and natural feeling, and not hard and clumpy like you get from many other products. I found it's good for fly aways, and it also has a fairly decent scent to it, not harsh.
Would most likely buy this again.

When pairing this with the Dove Nutritive Solutions Shampoo, it works very well. It has a pleasant smell which lasts long. It also leaves my hair soft, shiny and smooth feeling.
If the price was to come down a little, I would buy again.

I received this product as part of a review package from Chickadvior review team. My hair is colour treated, and also with it being winter, the cold, dry hair takes its toll. I also blow dry my hair every day before work, which contributes to leaving my hair crunchy feeling.
After using this product, and daily blow drying, my hair seems less crunchy, and more soft. The smell of the shampoo remains in my hair for the day which is nice from other products that seem to only last for the duration of the shower.
The price is a bit much, however, with some coupons or a bit of a lower price I would definately buy this again.

This is the 3rd bar I received to try for free from Chickadvisor.
Right off the bat you could smell the flavours in this bar. That alone was enough to make my mouth water. Upon the first bite, I was in heaven. The coconut flakes were noticeable and strong in flavour. The mango chunks were small, yet abundant.
The 2 flavours combined made for a heavenly chocolate bar. My husband sampled it as well, and he too thought it was the better of the 3.
Would definately recommend and provide positive feedback to anyone who asked about this bar. Will definately buy it again.

I received this chocolate bar for free to test from Chickadvisor.
Like the other chocolate bars, this bar has individual pieces marked off so you have an easier time having a piece here or there.
The flavour of this bar is good, though I didn't notice much of the cherry flavour. Perhaps the pomegranate flavour was more over powering. I shared this with my husband as well, and he too thought it was a good bar, just not very tart and also could not taste the cherry.
I may or may not buy this again. It's a good bar, just not what I was expecting.

I received this product to try from ChickAdvisor. Since hubby and I both enjoy trying new things, I shared with him to also get an "outsiders" opinion.
The packaging is pretty decent and eye catching. The chocolate itself is divided into little sections so if you only wanted a couple pieces it's easy to break off a couple and put the rest away for later.
The almonds give it a nice little crunch, and the fruit pieces added some different textures. The dark chocolate was pretty strong in flavour in my opinion. That combined with the almonds, it's all I tasted. I was a little disappointed as when I saw it was blueberry flavour, I got pretty excited. My husband also said the same thing. It was good, but lacked the flavour. Maybe both of us had our tastebuds a little off that day, it's hard to say.
It was a good chocolate bar and depending on the price, I may be willing to give this flavour another try to see if maybe it tastes different.

Upon trying this product out for the last few weeks I am now ready to provide my thoughts.
The packaging - it was bright, eye catching, informative and colourful. A good way to attract someone's attention, especially since it's a new product.
The cost - It's pretty average, though I have not bought a new one.
Applicator - the bristles are way smaller I found than what the image showed on the package. I was a little disappointed as I'm used to longer bristles and with smaller ones it can make it tough to get used to without goofing up your makup. I also found the wand a bit bigger to hold on to, as some of my other ones are smaller in size, and the bigger, more bulky one took a bit getting used to. Twirling to get the effects is also a bit hard to manage, and if you're like me who's not the best at applying makup simply because you don't wear it as often as other people, then these tips will just throw you off and confuse you. Makeup applying should be simple, not a challenge!
The Product itself - it's wet, heavy, and a little definately goes a long way. If you put too much on accident, you end up with clumps and lashes that look terrible. When you figure out just how much to put on the applicator, the product actually is great.
My lashes looked great once I mastered some of the things I didn't like, though the twirling thing is something I still haven't gotten the hang of, though I find I can make my lashes look great without it. I will keep using this product till it's gone, and then make a decision from there regarding if I buy it again or not.
I will recommend this to people to try because everyone has their own opinions and while my experience wasn't 100% great, once I did manage to figure out my own ways of doing things, my lashes really did look nice. Perhaps someone else will have the same thoughts, or even something different.

As an avid coffee drinker, my teeth are prone to stains. I decided to give this rinse a try, along with the corresponding tooth paste.
I'm not too keen on the taste of this, however, I have noticed a difference in my teeth. The stains are not as noticeable and my teeth are whiter. I've tried other whitening type products and found they didn't work very well, but decided to break down and give this one a try. I will probably continue using this product. I've also been trying to cut down on the amount of coffee I drink, so perhaps with less coffee and this product, I'll be almost good as new in no time
