Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer is very silky and a little goes a long way. It is easy to apply and does not irritate my sensitive skin. It is also almost odourless. It works well with my combination dry skin and helps my skin feel softer and smoother. It gives me a flawless finish. It is a bit expensive, but worth the money. -

I got AXE Anarchy Daily Fragrance for my son. Unfortunately, he can't wear it because the smell is so overwhelming. The scent itself would be nice if it was 1000 times less potent. There does not seem to be a way to spray only a tiny amount no matter how hard he tries. I will not be purchasing this in the future. -

I received a sample of Nivea In-Shower Nourishing Body Milk to try for free. It was easy to use and convenient, as you use it right after washing with your normal body wash, then just rinse off. It left my skin feeling smooth and soft immediately afterward.
My skin is normal to a little dry (bit drier in the winter) and while I found the body milk to be hydrating at first, the effects lasted only for an hour or so before I was feeling a bit dry again. I do not think this would be hydrating enough for someone with very dry skin (it is recommended for dry to very dry skin).
I really like that it had barely any scent (and what was there was a pleasant clean scent) and did not irritate my sensitive skin. It was a nice product but I don't think I'll be purchasing it in future, as I prefer my current after shower lotion.

Wet 'N Wild Black Kohl Eyeliner is a great eyeliner that works just as well as a lot more expensive pencil eyeliners.
It's creamy and pretty easy to apply. I even used it as lip liner for a costume. It sharpens easily and is very long, so will last a while.

I bought Mariposa Matte Lipstain to complete a costume, so I wasn't looking to spend a lot of money. It was ok for a cheap lipstain (cost $2.50 at the Dollar Store), but I won't be buying it again.
The colour was a little hard to apply neatly and dried very fast, not giving much time to fix any mistakes. Once it dried, it lasted a long time and I could eat and drink without it coming off. The colour was ok, but it was very drying on my lips.

I was lucky enough to be chosen by Bioderma to test out the new Photoderm Mineral Compact SPF 50 for free in exchange for my honest opinion.
The compact comes with a sponge to apply the cream that sets into a powder finish. I had the light shade, which suits several skin tones.
It applied smoothly and did not feel thick on my skin. It did not irritate my sensitive skin and had almost no odour. My facial skin has some dry patches, so I found it useful to use a moisturizer first and I had the best results when I also used a primer underneath.

I received a Precisely, My Brow Pencil from Toxbox Circle to try for free in exchange for my honest review.
This is the first brow pencil I have ever used and, as a beginner, I found it fairly easy to use. Although the shade did not match my brow colour completely, it did mix well with the 2 different colours in my brows. I was able to get natural looking brows that were more defined than usual. It did rub off easy, so I would have liked something a little more lasting.

Olay Regenerist Wrinkle Revolution Complex is a good wrinkle cream. I received a sample a while back and have only recently tried it out.
I have sensitive combination skin and react to a lot of wrinkle creams and serums, but I had no irritation at all with this product. I only used small amounts in targeted areas and it left my face feeling soft and smoother, taking away many of my fine lines. The scent is also light and pleasant.

My boys enjoyed helping me try out Annie's Shells & White Cheddar that I recieved from Family Rated.
My youngest did not like the flavour of the white cheddar at all. I think it was too sharp for him.
My middle boy liked it, but not as much as Annie's Mac & Cheese with the usual cheddar.
My oldest loved the taste and thought it was the best of the 2 we tried.
I liked it, but didn't love it. I think I'll stick to the regular cheddar.
The texture was ok, but difficult to get the shells to a uniform consistency. Some were very tender. while others were a little too hard.
As with other Annie's products, this has no artificial flavours, colours or preservatives and no GMOs.

My boys really enjoyed helping me test the Annie's Macaroni & Cheese I received from Family Rated!
My two younger boys loved the taste and gave it a 9/10 and 10/10. My oldest liked the taste, but thought he would like it better if it was even cheesier. I enjoyed the taste, but would also have liked it to be a bit cheesier too.
The texture was good and the timing on the box was good to cook the macaroni to the texture I prefer.
I love that this Mac & Cheese is made with mostly organic ingredients and has no GMOs, synthetic colours or preservatives and no artificial flavours!
