I received this product free to test as part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club. The size is perfect because it'll fit just about anywhere (purse, wallet, pocket) and you can take it with you whereever you go. The packaging is truthful when it says 400% shinier ... well, I'm not certain how truthful the actual % is; however, it did make my nails really shiny! I would definitely consider purchasing this product in the future and/or recommend it to a friend because the product is easy and convenient to use and is effective. -

I was selected to test and review the Dove® Beauty Bar as part of ChickAdvisor Product Review Club.
The Dove® Beauty Bar has changed the way I think about bar soap! I don't usually use bar soap, and I never use it on my face! I don't really like how it leaves a white film on the soap dish, and on the skin. In using the Dove® Beauty Bar, in the shower, I discovered it's not really like soap at all! It doesn’t feel slimy on the skin at all … it leaves the skin feeling clean but not dry like a regular soap would. I find that this is both nice and gentle while it also has that familiar, great, light scent. For the quality of soap you are getting, it is very inexpensively priced because it does the same as a good face wash for the lower priced bar of soap. I would consider switching to make this bar my usual bar and/or recommend it to a friend because it never dries your skin, nor does it ever make your skin feel tight … all this with a pleasant, light smell that is not overpowering, and lasts throughout the day. You could say that it’s creamy and very moisturizing. It lathers easily and leaves the skin soft and supple.
One think to point out: you must be careful not to leave any water in the soap dish because, if you do, the soap will become extremely soft, like it’s melting, which would mean that (before you realize it) much of the soap will be wasted. To recap, I really enjoy the Dove® Beauty Bar. This soap is so soft and soothing, and it’ll keep you feeling fresh all day long. I would recommend this to anyone that gets dry skin in the winter, or to help make anyone’s skin feel refreshed in the summer; especially after a long day at the beach or pool.
Disclosure: As part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club, I received a 2x90g pack of the Dove® White Beauty Bar with deep moisture to test as part of ChickAdvisor’s Product Review Club.

Kellogg's Special K Fruit Crisps
Delicious snack, very tasty... maybe the filling is a little too sweet but you don't have to feel guilty eating it (at least I don't!). You'll find yourself wanting a second one each and every time.

Kashi GoLean Cereal
Great tasting, good for you, super crunchy (even with milk) and even great for snacking out of the box. I love it!

I received a free sample from Febreze and ChickAdvisor as part of their product review panel.
I looked toward to trying this new product because since I carry teenagers and their stuff in my car, it usually doesn't smell that great in my car. Quite frankly, most car air fresheners don't usually do the job. Linen scent is my favorite scent because it's not overpowering and is super light and fresh. This product besides was so easy to install in my vent by clipping on; so easy! The scent doesn't lasting long once the vent has been turned off... you kind of have to keep it on all the time. I would buy this product again because I do love linen scent and I love Febreeze!

I was thrilled to have been selected by the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club for the opportunity to try the Oral-B® Pulsonic power brush.
My overall experience was great … while you should read the instructions, I tend to not do so. It was super easy to get the product ready to use; once ready, brushing my teeth was no longer a chore! You can’t compare a power brush with a manual brush … it wouldn’t be fair because a power brush is so much more advanced. The Oral-B® Pulsonic power brush is very effective at cleaning and whitening your teeth. It features more than 27,000 gentle sonic vibrations per minute! The handle is lightweight, and slim, which allows for better control and maneuverability. My manual brush ended up where it belongs: in the garbage! Very quickly, it was apparent that a power brush is an oral health must-have! Here’s something for you to think about: the Oral-B® Pulsonic power brush helps to whiten teeth in two weeks by removing 94% of surface stains. Let’s see your manual toothbrush top that! I really enjoyed my Oral-B® Pulsonic power toothbrush and would definitely consider purchasing this product in the future. Until then, I recommend that everyone give it a try because I know that all who do will fall in love with it.

Poise Hourglass Pads are very simple to use; just like a menstrual pad, you peel off the strip and then stick the pad to the under garment. The Poise Hourglass Pads are shaped like an hourglass, so they’re comfortable to wear; however, they’re also larger than I had expected (similar to a thick maxi menstrual pad). Poise Hourglass Pads are very effective and absorbent. They keep you dry all day; especially compared to using regular menstrual pads or liners, and you won’t have to change them often. When/if my LBL gets more advanced, I will definitely be using Poise Hourglass Pads … I definitely recommend that anyone with LBL consider trying them.

I have only used another whitening treatment in the past (I don't recall the name brand, but it was years ago and all I remember was squeezing some gel onto a rubber mouthpiece). I was selected, by ChickAdvisor, to review this product. This was perfect timing for me because I had a wedding to go to on September 17th; I probably would not have purchased a whitening treatment because of the cost involved. Applying the strips was very simple (although somewhat sticky), and the instructions were simple enough to follow. I really liked that the strips stayed in place, and didn't slide around in the mouth. The taste wasn't pleasant for me, and I did not like the gooey feeling ... even less when it accumulated in the mouth along with the saliva. Ew. In fact, the top strip kind of burned my inner top lip (at the corner of my mouth) ... perhaps it got stuck to it? Removing the strips was easy, and all the gooey residue left behind can be brushed away. I experienced tooth sensitivity while wearing the product, and I the next day I felt an ache in my teeth that wouldn't stop.
The end result: yes, my teeth did appear to gone a couple shades lighter. I must also include that the whiteness was only where the strips had been applied ... no where else.
Would I consider buying this product in the future? I'm not so sure I would. I have always used Crest; however, I'm not so sure that Crest has converted me to their 3D White Whitestrips 2 Hour Express Clan. I experienced a significant amount of discomfort while using the product. I don't think I'd like to experience the same again.
The facts remain:
-you do see a difference in the colour of your teeth
-it is expensive to whiten your teeth, so the cost of this product might be an advantage to some
-teeth sensitivity or discomfort isn't experienced by everyone
Although I wouldn't use Crest 3D White Whitestrips 2 Hour Express again, I would recommend that if someone was interested in whitening their teeth, they might want to give this product a shot. It's not too much time, or too many hours to invest ... and the results might be worth their while.
I'm glad that I received this opportunity; my teeth are just much too sensitive for this. I might consider trying the Crest 3D White Whitestrips Gentle Routine in future.

The 5 blade Gillette Venus Embrace Razor works much better than a 3 blade. I get fewer -to almost none- nicks or cuts, and the blade lasts much longer before going dull. I love the shape of the handle; it curves just like the curves of your leg, so you can manouver a lot easier. Since I first switched to Gillette Venus Embrace Razor, I haven't gone back to the previous one(s). -
