PowerBar Plant Protein Almond, Sea Salt and Dark Chocolate
It's chocolate but not too sweet. You can taste the almond and it's great. It's a good snack because it's light but still filling. It's good for long bike rides.

Primer came in a easy-to-use tube format. Went on creamy like a moisturizer rather than a lotion, which I was surprised about. Don't need to use a lot. Was worried that it would be oily because it went on so thick. Makeup application was easy and blended more because the primer was thick. Was ok though after 7 hour wear. Not especially oily and makeup stayed on well. Should get a lot of use out of one tube. -

I used the got2b lightener 14 days before using the got2b creative dye in red so I was hoping for optimal redness. I got some red streaks and highlighting but not the total red that I was aiming for. The product came in a squeeze tube that was easy to use. I didn't use all of the product on my chin length hair (so maybe I can touch it up in a few weeks). The conditioner pack was really confusing because the instructions tell you to towel dry your hair after colouring and then put in the conditioner for a few minutes. Does this mean that you wash out the colour, towel dry, condition, and then rinse? Or does this mean you colour your hair, don't wash, towel dry the dyed hair, and then put in the conditioner? I didn't know which one it was so I did the first one, which is usually the procedure for other hair dyes. I know it's hard to dye black hair so I was cautiously optimistic but still sad that my hair is not the red on the box. -

Got some assistance from my sister to do the lightening. Was skeptical because I have black hair and have never been able to just use a product from a box to lighten it so you can actually tell a difference. Usually you squint really hard in the sunlight and you MIGHT be able to see a lighter colour. The lightening took about 1.5 hr which was longer than anticipated but it worked! Took 2 tries because the first time my sister noticed the product was a little streaky so I rinsed and she did some touchups. I found after 2 washes the colour blended anyways. I would definitely buy this again! -

The chocolate protein shake is tasty. Tastes just like chocolate milk! Great as a meal replacement or after a heavy workout. Good amount of protein, high concentration without much extra fat and carb. Healthy milk protein to prevent muscle degradation. Excited that there's a new option! -

Tried the Patience Moka flavour and the quality is good - Everything tastes good and fresh, everything is bite size and easy to snack on, and there is a good mix of different textures. Combination works well together but the coffee taste was too overpowering for me (but I don’t drink coffee and that might be why). I especially liked the chocolate and tried it in yogurt and it was even better than snacking and did not get all soggy like some other snacks. Packaging was poorly done - It has one of those tear away notches but when I used it, the bag was still sealed as it was not low enough. Tried ripping but it was too close to the zip up container and could not do it so finally had to use scissors to open it up. I also think the bag is too big given how much you get (waste of packaging). Also, the design is not so eye catching since we could not find it on the shelf. Price would deter me from buying it again because It’s only slightly more volume than some organic chocolate bars with similar stuff in them that go for $4ish. -

Comes in a lot of different flavours - we got the meatless meat pizza. Cooking instructions were clear. Pizza toppings were abundant and tasty but the crust was horrendous. It tasted doughy and raw even though we left it in the oven for a little longer than recommended in the instructions. Not sure if it tastes like that because it's gluten-free or just because. The size is small considering it's $9.99. -

I tried the manuka honey with just a cup of hot water and it was good. Packaging was easy to open and dispense, very little waste of the product, but definitely a lot of work went into the packaging. The honey wasn't as sweet as I thought it would be but tasted fresh and pure. I don't know if I would have it by itself but I would try it with something else like tea. -

I got the free sample of the "Ethiopia" coffee from Pomme Natural Market. The Pomme staff were lovely and gave me a coupon to use next time I purchase items in their store. The coffee tasted good. Bold taste, good aroma. But for the amount you get, definitely too expensive and not worth the price. I love the back story behind the coffee though and hearing about the farmers who farmed the beans. Impressive! -
