I have an HE washer so I did not want to take a chance and actually use this in my washer since it is a powder. I did take the white blouse with the set in yellow sweat stains and soaked it for about 3 1/2 hours and then washed it with the rest of my whites. I noticed that the blouse seemed whiter than before but I only noticed a minimal improvement on the stains. Definitely better performance than the Resolve prewash spray I had been using but I actually thought the Oxiclean MaxForce foam took more of the stain out than this product did. I did not have anything else to test it on so I am not sure how a fresh stain would be but I suspect it should be pretty good. -

I received this product through a free product coupon as part of the review club #gotitfree. I did not have a recent stain so I gave it a bit of an unfair test. I used it on yellow sweat stains on a blouse. I put the product on and rubbed in. It was easy to pump and I used the rest of the blouse to help rub it in so I did not have to wear gloves. Although it did not completely remove the stains, it showed a surprising improvement after washing given how long the stains had been there. They definitely were reduced. This was particularly noticeable on the side with less stain. I have used a full bottle of Resolve on these stains and had a lot less impact than that small amount of Oxiclean Maxforce Foam so I will continue to treat this blouse each time it is washed since I may be able to solve the issue over time. Tried to take a photo before and after but it did not turn out. -

We received this in a gift basket and it is not too bad for instant coffee. It has a pleasant sweet flavour and although it would not replace my regular coffee I am using it instead of hot chocolate occasionally. It reminds me of the General Foods instant specialty coffee line that was around in the 1970s -
PC WEST COAST DARK ROAST GOURMET COFFEE
You have to like a dark roast coffee to enjoy this. The taste is quite good for the price. It is not a premium coffee but it works well as an everyday dark roast coffee. Good value for the money.

Dare Whippet Bâtonnets Brownies
While they may not be healthy, if you are looking for an indulgent cookie then this is it. OMG they taste exactly like a brownie. Total delicious and Canadian made. I would highly recommend them and they go on sale for a great price semi-regularly.

I was out for dinner on saturday and got to try Obsession Sauvignon Blanc from Ironstone in California. It is a wonderful Savignon Blanc and apparently available at LCBO for $15.10 a bottle which is a great price for that wine variety. It does not taste like a NZ Savignon as it is not a gooseberry but it has a citrus,peach, tropic combo with an a touch of floral. It tasted amazing and had a great nose to it. I am definitely going to pick one up at my local LCBO very soon. -

I received this product for free as part of the review panel for Vichy products and I want to thank you very much for the opportunity. Of the 3 products this was my favourite since it met more of its claims. It has a lovely texture -not too heavy and it absorbs quickly. It definitely is ultra-cooling, my skin felt cooler and fresher after I applied it. It has a citrus scent (I am not crazy about citrus scents in makeup) but at least it was a much milder one than the serum. My skin did look smoother in the morning as was the claim but it did not look radiant. This line actually made my skin look duller than my normal product did which is the main reason that I would not buy this line plus the serum had a drying effect on my skin. This product definitely had some great things going for it though. -

I #gotitfree as a reviewer for chick advisors which was a great experience. This product has a lovely texture and a much milder fragrance than the serum. I was already using a high end skin regime prior to trying this so I did not notice a big improvement to my skin after weeks of use but on a positive note it kept my skin at the same nice level that I had gotten it to. The product claims to make the skin feel denser and I think it might be a bit. I did not see "regained elasticity" but I was already using a good product and I did not see a change in the definition of my contours. It was however a pleasant cream and it did keep my skin looking good but not as luminous as my preferred brand. Sadly #VichyWorksForMe! sort of. -

I #gotitfree as one of the reviewers of the Vichy products. I have really mixed feelings about this product since I did not find #VichyWorksForMe! at least not that well. Right after I started using the regime I began having dry skin by the sides of my nose something I never get but I could not tell which of the 3 products was causing the problem so I tried the cremes without the serum and the dry skin cleared up. On the positive side the serum has a great texture and is in a beautiful looking bottle. The product claims "Complexion is more even, radiant, and youthful." I actually have a very even complexion so that was hard to judge. The product did not make my skin more radiant, in fact it was duller looking than it was when I used my normal line. It did keep my skin looking youthful though and in that way it matched my preferred skin care regime. It has a very strong citrus scent which took some getting used to. Overall I would not say it was a success for my skin. -
