Let me start out by saying that I prefer to purchase Astro Balkan style yogurt over just about any other brand of yogurt. That being said there are new flavor Chai Latte leaves a lot to be desired. There is a bitter aftertaste, the spices taste artificial. It tastes more like a cheap pumpkin spice product than an actual chai latte. I would steer far away from this flavor although most of their other flavours are fantastic -

While I have tried other forms of root touch up sprays, I really do like the Schwarzkopf brand. I received the Root Retoucher in the dark mahogany shade. When I tried it I noticed there was immediate coverage, it dried quickly and most importantly did not come off on my clothing or my white pillow cases. Also, it was one of the few aerosol products that did not give me a reaction because of the propellant. This being said I would definitely use this product again as opposed to any of the competitors products.
Thank you for the chance to try it.

I have tried many protein shakes and have found that the texture and taste are either more like chalk than I care for OR way too thick and they make me feel like I am drinking 35% cream. This one had a pleasant vanilla flavour and was not too thick and creamy. Was fairly good either ice cold or room temperature.
This would also make a good base to add fresh or frozen fruit to and make a smoothie.
I will be keeping my eyes open for salws on this one so that I can stock up
Thank you for the chance to try and review this item.

When I was given the opportunity to try this product I was a bit apprehensive. I have tried many protein and meal replacements before and found most of them lacking in some form.
My concerns, however, were not without merit. I was not super impressed with the watery texture and weak chocolate flavour. Whether it was at room temperature or ice cold didn't seem tp affect the taste in any way. It was only with the addition of a bit of instant coffee that made this product completely palatable.
I highly doubt that I would purchase this product again.
Thank you for the chance to try and review something new.

I received my coupon for this product and purchased the product with some trepidation as I have not had any good experiences with these types of bars.
I was very pleasantly surprised at the quality and taste of these bars. They were moist and there were chunks of cranberry with a very good balance of the orange and cranberry flavours. The price point of $4.99 for 5 bars is a bit steep and is the only reason that I wouldn't purchase these on a regular basis.

When I received my coupons for this product I was expecting a DRY, CRUMBLY and Relatively TASTELESS product, based on past experiences with mass produced muffins. Given that they are a whole grain muffin I was DELICIOUSLY SURPRISED!! They were moist and not mealy or crumbly. There are chunks of blueberries and cranberries throughout the muffin. The only thing that would keep me from purchasing these on a more regular basis is the cost. $4.99 for 4 muffins is a little too much for my taste.
All in All though IF they were in sale or a lower price point I would definitely purchase these on a regular basis.

I have very fine hair that HATES WINTER!! The hats and hoods, the dry air and indoor heat all produce tons of STATIC and FLYAWAYS. Untill NOW.....this is a very light, non greasy oil spray that helps moisturize my hair while taming the strays and static. There is a pleasant coconut scent that lingers until the next wash.
Keeps my hair shiny and soft and leaves NO residue on clothing or bedding.
I have recommended this to several people and most of them love it.
Thanks Marc Anthony for helping tame my winter hair.

I have sensitive skin and usually stick to what I know won't bother me.
The Light Lotion with SPF 50 went on smoothly and was very lightweight on my skin. It absorbed quickly and was not heavily scented. I liked the fact that it was non greasy and didn't sting my eyes when it got wet from either the pool or just from sweating in the heat.
Thanks for the opportunity to test this out

Recently I received a surprise in the mail from Chick Advisor, the CND Vinylux Nail enamel and Top Coat.
My job entails changing shelf tags and shelf moldings in a grocery store. The result of this is constantly chipped nail enamel. I have tried everything from dollar store to expensive salon nail enamels, with the same results....chipped polish within the first 48 hours. So I was very skeptical about "another" nail enamel.
The colour went on smoothly and only took 2 coats for excellent coverage. It dried quickly and completely and once the top coat was applied I had 2 weeks of chip-free wear.
Will definitely seek this product out so that I can add more colours to my stash.

I was hesitant to try this flavour as I am not a fan of chocolate in cereal. Past experiences have left me jaded as to this concept.
I was completely surprised at the total balance of sweet chocolate, tart cranberries and toasted flakes. With milk a bowl of this cereal contains 5g of protein and 60% of my daily Iron intake,( not bad for someone who doesn't get enough of either of these.)
At anywhere from 3.99-5.29 for a 480G box it is an average value but I would advise that you wait untill it goes on special for around 2.99 to try it out.
