TRESemmé® Anti-Breakage Breakage Defense Shampoo
I didn't like much about this shampoo, unfortunately. I thought the smell was too strong, and I didn't like the way it left my hair feeling, almost greasy. Not for me.

Dove® Nutritive Solutions Burst Shampoo
This shampoo smells nice, and washes well, and made my hair soft, but I made my scalp itchy, so I can't recommend it because of that. And that's what I have to say about this product.

This worked okay, but I found it left a lot of residue. It kept any odors away, which was good. I wasn't a huge fan of the scent; I purchased it online, so i was unaware of its scent before receiving it. I can't quite place what I didn't like about the scent; maybe too floral.
I've used worse deodorants, but I doubt I'll buy this again.

I really did like this product, but since it doesn't contain an SPF component, it's not really for me. It's a bit of a hassle to have to apply a separate. Also, the price point is quite high. It moisturized well, didn't bother my skin, and wasn't too heavy, with next to no scent. I'd recommend it if it had SPF in it. I won't buy this because of that.
I got this product for free as part of the review club.

Vichy Aqualia Thermal Dynamic Hydration Power Serum
This is pretty decent product, but the pricepoint is just too high. I've had equal success with cheaper moisturizers, and this didn't really work any miracles.

I saw the benefits of moisture, and it didn't bother my skin, so those are 2 good points. However, I didn't really feel or see the effects of reducing darker under eye skin or puffiness. With the higher pricepoint I expected better, and this just wasn't anything special. -
Softlips® CUBE Lip Moisturizer - Berry Bliss

I really like the scent and taste of this product, however, I found that it made my lips really dry, and it irritated the skin around my mouth. The massive applicator is a pain; it seems to be confused as to whether or not it wants to be applied by hand, or directly on the mouth lol.
I thought the packaging was super cool, and like other Softlips products, but this one was definitely not for me! :(

Acme 13779 Scrapbooking Tools Westcott Paper Trimmer with Titanium Bonded Cut and Score Blades, 12-Inch
There's a learning curve to this item, that's for sure. It takes some practice to figure out the pressure, and where it aligns, etc. Also, it notes it cuts through 5 pages; I would say 3, tops. This isn't really as good as I expected, but I got it... +

This isn't really as good as I expected, but I got it for a really good price, so it'll do 'til I can buy something that's better quality. -

I received this product as part of the Chick Advisor review club.
I was really looking forward to trying this, as I do use energy beverages from time to time when I need a boost.
The capsules are convenient, and quite easy to use. I received them in Orange, and pretty much expected them to taste like orange. They sort of did, but not a lot, and when I followed the suggestion of mixing it in OJ, it turned this nasty brown color that I was having trouble even drinking because it looked so unappetizing. So, only did that once! Plus, since OJ boosts blood sugar, I figured that would also mask the effectiveness of the product, giving it a false positive boost! (which could very well be the case for many who tried it... )
Anyway, I really wanted this to work, so the following couple of times I tried it with water. It worked slightly, and I had more energy than if I went without, but not a whole lot. I also got bad acid reflux 2 of the times I tried it.
Unfortunately, energy drinks on the market, even the sugar-free ones, give me more energy than this did.
Overall, decent price, but "meh" results, when I was really hoping for a phenomenal product.

I received a few of these bars to sample as part of the review club.
I found these to be pretty standard for meal replacement bars in terms of taste, and texture. In other words, there's that funky taste that I can't quite pinpoint, and they're like chewing a rubber shoe. Also, they were quite large, and it was a pain to have to eat that much.
I don't feel that they were very effective in terms of appetite suppressant, nor adding energy. I was left rebounding and craving sweets to make up for whatever was lacking in the bar, vs. my normal meals.
Overall, with the pricepoint, not particularly tasty, not particularly unique, and not so effective, I would not recommend these bars.
