This was an unexpected treat to receive. When I think of these type of packaged products, I usually think of them as side dishes and mostly just pasta. This was like getting a freezer bag skillet meal but being able to use fresh higher quality ingredients. For a quicker complicated meal in the future, I would definitely pick up more of these. -

PowerBar ProteinPlus Reduced Sugar is a great boost for me after my workouts. I got it free to try from Chick Advisor. You couldn't even tell that it was reduced sugar. It tasted good. It definitely had the slightly powdery taste that a lot of protein bars have though. The Lemon flavour worked better with this than the chocolate peanut butter flavour. -

NIVEA Q10 Firming Body Lotion is one of the best body lotions that I have tried in years! I got it for free from Chick Advisor to try. The texture is amazing and it sinks in perfectly to my skin. It also leaves me feeling hydrated and great all day. This is a new favourite body lotion. I even love the pump style packaging. -

NIVEA Q10 Anti-Age Hand Cream does a good job. I got it for free to try from chick advisor. It was a pretty average hand cream. It's not super thick but not super runny either. It hydrated well but not as great as the body cream. Usually hand creams are like a souped up body cream. This was the opposite. It worked well and if I hadn't tried the body lotion from the same line, I might have loved it more. -

I really liked NIVEA Q10 Firming Body Oil. I got it for free to try from Chick Advisor. If it smelled as wonderfully as the Vichy Ideal Soleil oil, it would be my new go to. It's reasonably priced. Hydrates my skin wonderfully and leaves me not feeling greasy or uncomfortable. -
Ben & Jerry’s P.B. & Cookies Non-Dairy Frozen Dessert
If no one had told me that Ben & Jerry's Non-Dairy in PB & Cookies was dairy free, I'd never have known. I'm used to dairy free things being fruity gelatos. It tastes just like ice cream. It's not quite as creamy as Ben & Jerry's regular ice cream... +
If no one had told me that Ben & Jerry's Non-Dairy in PB & Cookies was dairy free, I'd never have known. I'm used to dairy free things being fruity gelatos. It tastes just like ice cream. It's not quite as creamy as Ben & Jerry's regular ice cream but it comes up close to just regular ice creams in terms of creaminess. I can only eat a very little bit of this at a time though. There's just something about the base flavour that gets slightly weird tasting after eating a certain amount. I loved that it was chock full of peanut butter and cookies. They definitely didn't skimp on the toppings in this little bucket.
The biggest drawback was trying to find this flavour and the massive inconsistencies in price. I had a coupon to #tryitfree from Chick Advisor. My first stop was the grocery store by my house. They didn't carry the non-dairy Ben & Jerry's. The next place I tried carried it but was sold out of this flavour due to it being on sale for $4.99. I wish I could have found it there. The next place that I went was selling it for $15! The coupon I had been provided with only covered $9. I went to a total of 6 grocery stores to find it and thankfully was able to find it for $10.
So, value for money, I think this is fantastic if you can find it for the $5-$8 price range and need something dairy free. Anything more than that and I don't think I'd recommend it.

Canada Dry Club Soda - Orange-Mandarin

I got this free to test from chick advisor. It was a good mixer for drinks. My only wish was that the orange flavour was a little more prominent. I feel like I could smell it more than I could taste it. It was very carbonated though! I don't think I would drink it on its own due to the very neutral flavour though. -

I received this product free from Chick Advisor to test out. So far, I like it. I have been adding it to my morning smoothies and smoothies that I make for my mother. I don't find that it adds any extra flavour to the smoothie. I like that I can make any type of flavour of smoothie without having to take into account the flavour of the protein powder. The only thing that I don't like is how small the container is. The price is not crazy night but considering how small the container is, I'm not sure if I'll buy another container when I run out. Considering price per oz, I might just go back to the vanilla flavoured protein that I was using before. -
Physicians Formula 2-in-1 Lash Boosting Eyeliner Serum

I can't say enough good about this eye liner. I used to love the Kat Von D Tattoo Liner. I wanted to branch out though. I had heard good things about this one. So, I picked it up. I bought it on sale and it has lasted amazingly. I keep expecting it to dry up but it just keeps going strong. The liner is wonderfully black and glides on easily. It lasts all day as well. I've even bought a backup in case mine runs out now. -
