Was very excited to get the opportunity to try these Good & Simple Fruit + Fibre Muffins courtesy of ChickAdvisor. I picked them up at Metro. Like the individual packaging as they are easy to grab and go. They are very fresh for a packaged product and feel like a homebaked muffin. The taste was okay on these. Very bran heavy in flavour and not so much fruit. I would have liked to taste more of the blueberry and cranberry in these. However overall they make a good snack and its great that they are made with natural ingredients. -

Was very excited that I was chosen by ChickAdvisor to try these Good & Simple Walnut + Grains Bars for free. I picked them up at Metro (retail cost $4.99). Love that these are made with real ingredients. They are suprisingly fresh in texture and taste for a packaged product. Feels more like a home baked then a lot of other products available. The taste is okay, I think for my preference I like something a little sweeter (just a tad more!). The maple syrup is subtle but the walnut flavour is good. Overall its a good snack. I would recommend. -

I was chosen to review this product free thanks to ChickAdvisor. I picked up the IOGO Protein in chocolate flavour. First impressions is that this yogurt is VERY thick. You feel like you're actually eating something very filling unlike a lot of other yogurts out there. The flavour was great. good ratio of flavor to mix into the yogurt. It kept me feeling full for a good chunk of time. Would make a great snack or after workout pick me up. -

The Carnation Breakfast Essentials Powder Drink Mix in Chocolate was easy to use and very tasty. Tasted just like a glass of chocolate milk which is a nice treat in the morning. Love that its packed with protien and good for you vitamins and minerals. The first day I drank it alone but found I got hungry after a couple hours. The next day I tried using a recipe from their website, just adding some fruit to make it into more of a smoothie which was even better. I think I would likely use it that way to add a boost to my smoothies!
Overall i would recommend! Definitely a great thing to have on hand in the mornings for a quick breakfast fix
(I received this item for free to try but all opinions are my own)

Was excited to try this Vichy Idéal Soleil Double Usage After-Sun Care courtesy of ChickAdvisor. I used this product on dry skin and found that it was pretty thick and left my skin feeling a little greasy after use. It didnt absorb as well as I was hoping but regardless of that, it did leave my tan looking more even and my skin feeling soft. I think maybe a spray bottle would have been a better choice for this as far as application goes but overall it still was easy to apply. The scent was definitely the best part, this stuff smells amazing. I am anxious to try it after the shower on wet skin to see the difference! -

Was really excited to try this Vichy Idéal Soleil Sheer Lotion Bare Skin Feel SPF 60 courtesy of ChickAdvisor. The lotion had a nice scent and texture. It went on smooth and absorbed quickly. It didnt leave me feeling greasy like a lot of other sunscreens. It seemed to work pretty well at protecting me from the sun. Would recommend if someone was looking to splurge a little on a fancier sunscreen. I would love a waterproof option however as when Im out in the sun I tend to be sweating or playing in water so not sure it would be the most convenient for my lifestyle but could see using it on days when just casually being outside. -

I was excited to try this Vichy Idéal Soleil Ultra Light Lotion SPF 50 courtesy of ChickAdvisor. It was a great size that I could put it in my purse and carry with me. The lotion itself I found a bit watery but it went on easy and absorbed quickly. It also did not leave my face feeling greasy which was great. The scent was also enjoyable. This product provided good protection and really like that it has such a high SPF. Not sure I would spend the money on this however as I find there are more affordable moisturizers and stuff that do include SPF but if I spent more time outdoors I would definitely treat myself to this product. -

Thank you to ChickAdvisor for giving me the opportunity to try these Adrien Gagnon Decadent Fudge Nutriforme Bars. The name does lie! These things are like eating fudge and they are very very decadent. I almost felt like they were too sweet at first but the next day when I used one to replace my lunch, I had it with an orange and it was not so bad. I really like these bars. They are delicious and kept me feeling satisfied. I used them to replace a few meals throughout the week with a piece of fruit as it was really convenient when I was too busy in the morning to prepare a real lunch. Would definitely recommend! -

I was very interested in trying the Adrien Gagnon Super Energex and was lucky to be given the opportunity courtesy of ChickAdvisor. First impression was the packaging was pretty cool but I had to do some reading to understand how to use these little "viles of energy" (as I called them). I tried one out the next morning diluted in half a cup of water as recommended. The appearance wasn't very appealing as it looked like I was pouring soy sauce into my water but I gave it a go. The taste wasnt great, but it wasnt horrible either. I wouldnt call it Orange flavour thou like that package says. I did get a taste of vanilla maybe? Anyways I did notice I felt more awake after drinking the Super Energex but not sure it did much more then my usual morning coffee, which I enjoy much more. Dont think Id purchase this product but could be a great solution for someone who drinks things like Red Bull or something of that nature as it seems like a much better option. -

Was really excited to try this Nivea Express Eye Make-up remover courtesy of ChickAdvisor. First impressions is that this product smells great. Wasn't a big fan of the small hole to shake the product out of the bottle, would rather just tip the whole bottle over onto my cleaning pad. But small detail. The remover took off my eye shadow instantly. It took a little longer to get my mascara to come off, but I think if I had let it sit for a minute, it would have come off easier. Overall this worked really well and is a great option as far as eye make-up remover goes. I would recommend. -
