This lotion has a nice light scent to it. It felt cool to the skin and was very quickly absorbed. I used it in the winter and my legs and body felt moisturized all day. I was not used to the gel feel and at first doubted whether it would be effective, but it proved to do a good job at preventing any dry and scaly patches from forming. The lotion is a light blue colour.
I received this product to try for free in return for this review.

I normally get watermelon or mandarin flavoured sparkling water. This is a nice addition to the drinks menu for the summer. -

I #gotitfree through the Chick Advisor product review club. It took me a long time to work up the energy to try it. In the time between applying for the review product and the time I got selected, I had changed my hair colour. It had been a deep auburn, but then I changed it to black. Once my roots started to show quite a bit, I decided there was no harm in giving it a try. I would describe it as a coloured hair spray. It is relatively easy to use, although you have to keep the bottle upright. Spraying some of the hair on top while keeping it upright is not easy. The spray feels cold hitting your scalp. My scalp was coloured a pinky red by the auburn sample I had. Once your hair is sprayed, you can't really comb or brush it. It washes out so it is good for a couple of days and then it's gone. You have to decide whether it's worth the effort of continuing to use the spray before you colour your hair again. -

The texture of the bar is easy to eat - soft, chewy and not dry. The flavour is mild and not too sweet. The bar would be handy to have around after a workout or if you need a healthier alternative to a chocolate bar. I ate it for my mid morning snack and I was full until my late lunch. -
PowerBar ProteinPlus Reduced Sugar Lemon Poppy Seed
I thought the bar tasted pretty good. I like lemon poppyseed flavours in general and this hit both notes. The texture was good - soft, chewy and not too dry. I generally buy clif builder bars which are very chewy and sometimes need a lot of water... +
I thought the bar tasted pretty good. I like lemon poppyseed flavours in general and this hit both notes. The texture was good - soft, chewy and not too dry. I generally buy clif builder bars which are very chewy and sometimes need a lot of water to get through. This Power Bar didn't have those problems. My only complaint was that I had some explosive after effects from this bar. It shot out of me with some force! Sorry if that's TMI, but I was so worried about this effect that I couldn't try the other flavours while I was away at a training camp. I needed to be able to get to a washroom, just in case. You might not have this effect. -

I received this as part of the chick advisor product review club. The cream didn't have a strong scent and moisturized my hands very well. I wouldn't use it on my face - it feels too thick for that. I tried it during the summer and my hands felt good. I would need to try it during the winter to see if it is a keeper. -
NIVEA Protect & Care Anti-perspirant/Deodorant
I received this in a promo. The anti-perspirant has a nice scent - not too girly or floral. It has a nice glide to it. I have not noticed it leaving any white streaks on my clothes. I would buy it again.

NIVEA Creme Care Facial Cleansing Wipes

NIVEA Creme Care All-in-One Facial Cleansing Lotion
The lotion had a nice feel to it and spread easily. I used water and a face cloth to wipe it off and didn't feel any traces of it after the rinse. My skin felt soft afterwards and did not feel tight like it does after a foaming cleanser.
