I was lucky enough to receive this product for free to try and review. I was excited about these strips as I had used many different Crest White Whitestrips in the past and was looking forward to see what the professional effects had to offer.
Initially, I wasn't looking forward to the two hours a day for seven days treatment schedule. I will admit it was a commitment. Not wanting to leave the house with them on, and not being able to eat or drink for two hours was something I had to plan for. The strips themselves though have been improved since previous strips and stick much better and don't slide around like older strips.
After the first treatment my teeth were so sensitive I thought about discontinuing the treatment. I don't have overly sensitive teeth and haven't had sensitivity in the past to strips but after the first day I was in so much pain. (I actually found it hard to sleep that evening) The next morning the pain was still there but decreased as the day went on so I decided to give another strip a try. Luckily, I didn't receive any further sensitivity so I was able to finish the treatment.
After finishing I did notice a huge change in the colour of my teeth. They are much whiter and look great. I am also really excited about this colour lasting a full year! It is such a benefit to only have to use this treatment once a year!
I would recommended this product to friends but I also really like the crest whitestrips 2 hour express product. 2 hours and lasts 3 months was definitely worth it.
Overall, great product and they have made some improvements to their product that really make a difference.

I received a free sample from Febreze and ChickAdvisor as part of their product review panel. I was excited to try the car vent as I have an older car and feel that my ride could use the freshening up.
When I first installed the clip freshener (which was super easy!) I was so impressed as to how small and cute it looked. I found that while it did make my car smell better, the air or heat needed to be on to get the aroma moving around my interior. I found the scent pleasing and not overbearing.
I liked this air fresher more than most I've used, as similar products seem to be very strong and I tend to get sick of them quickly. The Febreze however was soft and almost calming.
I would buy this product again especially during the summer when smells seem to linger in my car more than other months.

My first impressions of the L'Oreal Professionnel Intense Repair Masque was that the quantity seemed tiny! I have really long, thick hair and tend to need plenty of conditioner to get the job done. When I noticed how small the masque bottle was I was worried I would only get a few conditions out of the bottle and wouldn't be able to provide a fair review.
I must say I was pleasantly surprised with how little conditioner I had to use in order to treat my hair. I found that I had to use way less than I normally do and a little went a long way. After use, I noticed how light and smooth my hair seemed. I usually end up with hair that seems heavy and dry especially during the winter months. I tend to wear my hair up because of the texture of my hair in the winter. (people tend to call it "horse hair") After using L'Oreal Professionnel Intense Repair Masque however, I noticed how easily my hair was to style and I couldn't believe how many compliments I received on my hair. The shine was gorgeous and my hair felt and smelt wonderful!
I would definitely buy this product in the future. The only downside was the price of the product, but if you're like me and have terribly dry hair you should splurge (especially during the winter) to repair your hair.

When I first opened the box to the Oral-B Pulsonic Power Toothbrush, my very first impression was the size of the brush. I have had electric tooth brushes in the past and always thought they were large, clunky, and heavy. The Oral-B Pulsonic Power Toothbrush is light, slim, and feels similar to a regular toothbrush in your hand.
I must admit, when I first received the Oral-B Pulsonic Power Toothbrush I had no idea it was supposed to whiten teeth. After my first few brushes with the brush I could have sworn I used a teeth whitening product. I couldn't believe my eyes when I checked the toothbrush packaging; the brush is designed to whiten your teeth in two weeks by removing up to 94% of surface stains. I would definitely say I noticed a huge improvement in the colour of my teeth and was pleasantly surprised that I could achieve this just by brushing!
Despite being powerful enough to whiten my teeth, I found this brush surprisingly gentle and smooth. I would consider my mouth to be sensitive and bleeding gums can be a problem for me occasionally but I have not noticed any discomfort or bleeding while using this brush. I found my mouth feeling much cleaner than I would with my regular toothbrush and preferred the feeling in my mouth after brushing with this toothbrush compared to my regular toothbrush.
The brush left my mouth feeling clean, smooth. and fresh. I love this toothbrush and would hands down recommend it to friends and family.

My free sample of crest 3D white whitestrips arrived just in time! I had recently been feeling my teeth were on the yellow side and was in need of a whitening product, and thankfully the 2-hour express delivered!
I had used past whitestrips with success but was annoyed with the routine. (using them twice a day, or for a number of days in a row) I was really excited to try a 2 hour version that only needs to be used once every 3 months!
Two hours does seem like a long time, but I decided to give myself some tv time while wearing them.
The strips were easy to use and apply, stayed on relatively well (I tried not to talk too much with them on), and didn't really notice an unpleasant taste until the last 20 minutes.
After removal I was pleasantly surprised with the results! Definitely a noticeably whiter smile, but not too "i just whitened my teeth" white! Perfect!
The only negative was about 3 hours after I whitened them I began to feel the sensitivity in my teeth. It was quite uncomfortable (I have had sensitive teeth in the past) and found it annoying while tying to fall asleep. When I awoke the pain was still there. I worried about how long it would last but thankfully later that day it went away. (lasted less than 24 hours in total)
Even with the sensitivity I was so impressed with the result and ease of the product I would definitely buy and use again!

I have used this product for two weeks and feel that is the best eye roller I have used to date. The first thing I noticed about the aveeno eye roller was the smell. It was so fresh and fruity it made me feel refreshed as soon as I opened the product. The second thing I found wonderful was the amount of product released with each use. Some rollers I find hard to use and don't really release too much liquid. Others I find release too much liquid and the product doesn't absorb very well. The aveeno however absorbed and I was able to apply make-up a few minutes after use. I loved the cooling action of the ball and noticed my eyes were slightly less puffy. I definitely noticed an improvement in dark circles under my eyes. I loved this product and will definitely be buying a new one after I finish the current roller I'm using. -

I used to swear by the classic "great lash" by maybelline. I had tried many other mascaras and always went back to the "great lash"....until I had the opportunity to try Falsies! It was on a crazy special at my local drug store and since it was half the price of "great lash" I thought I would give it a try. (if I hated it, I would throw it away and just go back to "great lash".)
Wow, I was in love! My lashes were huge! Fully covered, and no clumps! It didn't run while sweating at the gym, but was easy to remove. It definitely adds to the length and thickness of the lashes and I am obsessed with the way my lashes look now.
I can't say enough about this product! I thought I would never stay from the classic "great lash" but the Falsies mascara is amazing.

The only moisturizer I can use on my face. I have very dry skin on my t-zone and very sensitive skin as well. I have tried many high-end creams and moisturizer and this is the only product I have found that doesn't leave me greasy, cause breakouts, and gets rid of the dry skin. Feels so great and the smell is soothing. Love it! -

I cannot say enough about this product. I love both the shampoo and conditioner. I have very dry and thick hair and have a hard time finding something to moisturize it without weighing it down and making it look greasy. This product however make my hair so manageable and shiny. Even my hairdresser cant believe this is the product I use on my hair. He doesn't believe me that you can get results from a "drug store" product. -
