I received this as part of the product review club as well as the milk chocolate version.
I love pretty much any type of chocolate, this is no different. The packaging is very nice, definitely sleeker than a normal box of chocolates. The harder outer shell is really creamy and barely bitter for a dark chocolate, and the sponge inside is really airy and light. The chocolates inside are quite large individually and are very satisfying. In comparison to the milk chocolate there is not much difference, the chocolate is only a little over 50% cocoa so if you really want a dark chocolate taste it isn't really going to satisfy that. It is a really nice treat and the box comes in a package of 10 chocolates which is more than other boxes of this type of chocolate come in. I really liked these chocolates, I finished them within a few days so I would of course buy them.

I'm a big lover of disinfecting wipes because I really hate cleaning and wipes just seem to make it easier to go over everything in one wipe. The canister is lovely and it definitely doesn't look like a cleaning product sitting on my counter that I forgot to put away (very common occurence!). I first used them in my kitchen and i think because of the texture on the wipes it helps with anything that is stuck on the counters, so I didn't need to reach for my sponge often. I used them in my bathroom and they made it super simple to just do a daily disinfect of that area! I love the fact that I can just take one and go over door handles and other areas just so everything is clean so if one person is sick it lessens the chance of other people in the house getting sick. One thing I didn't like was that after the counter in my bathroom dried there were marks from where the liquid from the wipe had not dried properly and it did leave a film on it as well. So it doesn't leave light colored surfaces very clean-looking. Again like many others have said the look of the canister is probably a gimmick, which puts it at a higher price point. Also a major fault with this canister is the way it dispenses, almost every time I open it up again the cloth has fallen back down and I have to reach down into the canister between the openings and grab another wipe. All in all I would probably buy them because they are a good wipe especially for the kitchen and just make it really easy to just give anything a quick clean when it needs it. -

I actually quite liked this. I don't usually have trouble with my hair in the summer, but when winter comes i need to keep my hair very straight and this definitely helps. I have very fine hair so i always worry about straightening irons damaging my hair, this keeps my hair protected. My hair tends to kink up when I let it air dry, but this spray seems to keep my hair straighter as it dries meaning less time styling. Even when I don't get around to using the iron it does not weigh my hair down, great thing considering volume is lacking for my hair. -

This eyeliner definitely delivers, I have a lot of problems with transfer of color when I wear eyeliner even with waterproof eyeliners. This one is great it stays on without smudging and there is no transfer. My only problem with is that I can't find a large selection of colors for it, but that might be just the sephora I shop at. -
MAC Cosmetics Powder Blush
Love this blush! It was one of the first blushes I ever used and I guess I got spoiled because I have tried other ones and nothing has measured up! It lasts forever and it gives great color and a smooth finish.

I was pretty excited for this mascara because I had heard a lot about the 'tubes' type mascara. I have sensitive eyes and they itch especially in the winter when it is dry, so I usually have problems with flaking this mascara claims not to flake. So I tried it out and it doesn't flake even when i have to rub my eyes, and removal is fantastic, no dark circles at all! My issue with this is that the look is nothing like it claims. I did not experience much lengthening, and in terms of volume I couldn't do multiple coats without getting clumps. Its definitely a low maintenance mascara, but not good if you want a dramatic difference -

I am a huge mascara lover, and anything that claims to make my lashes longer and more prominent I will buy. I bought this a week ago and am loving it. I have pretty short lashes, but this mascara makes it really easy to apply multiple coats to make them look longer. The formula doesn't clump so my lashes don't look spidery just nicely defined and elongated. I love the small brush and that it is really easy to apply, overall I really like it and it is my new go-to mascara. -
