I had the day off and wanted to get an espresso-laden drink from Starbucks to give me some extra energy. I decided to try the Iced Americano Blanco as it sounded like it would be tasty and exactly what I was looking for. Unfortunately, I found it very bitter and it wasn't sweet at all which surprised me as it has 3 pumps of White Chocolate Sauce.
I waited 10-15 minutes for the ice to melt, and then I was able to drink it, but it was more for the caffeine kick and not because it was good.

I received this mask as part of my Life Little Box monthly subscription and was pretty happy with this mask. It smells great and there was a generous amount, so I got 2 applications out of it.
It tightened my skin, but not so much so that it was uncomfortable. It washed away pretty easily and I noticed that my skin looked bright and plump the next morning.
The price point is great, I will probably buy this in the future when I want to have a pampered night in.

I received these in my Life Box monthly box and was excited to try these as I am always looking for healthy snacks. Unfortunately these were not good at all, in my opinion. I DID like the sweetness level, they taste naturally sweet from the dates and there are no artificial sweeteners. However, I would definitely not buy these, instead I would have a Lara Bar, or just some nuts and fruit. -

I received these in my Life Little Box subscription and was very excited to try them as I have seen them in quite a few stores. I was pretty disappointed with the flavour, they are not sweet at all and the taste reminds me of a bad protein bar (they contain whey protein).
These are gluten free and made with whole ingredients, so they may be a good snacking option for someone on a restricted diet, but I personally would not buy them.
If you are looking for a similar product that tastes great, I would recommend a Lara Bar ( I love the Cherry Pie ones).

I received one of these in my Life Little Box monthly subscription. I was surprised that it tasted so great considering how healthy the ingredients are. I looked up the price online and I would not purchase these, they are pretty expensive and the serving size is really small.
However, if you have a lot of restrictions to your diet and have trouble finding tasty snacks, this would be great for you as it is free of milk, eggs, wheat/gluten, peanuts, soy and more.

I love this body wash and have been using it for awhile. The scent is nice and clean and I find this body wash very moisturizing! It is great to use in the cold winter months.
It allows me to jump in the shower and go on with my day without having to add a second step of moisturizing my body with lotion as well.

I had heard about Trader Joe's notorious cookie butter a few years ago, but immediately decided it was a gross idea and I would not like it. However, I was recently shopping at Trader Joe's on a trip to the US and decided to pick some up and try it to see what all of the fuss is about. I bought the crunchy version as I love the different textures.
The first thing I did was to dip my *clean* finger into the cookie butter and found that it was a little heavier than I was expecting, but was pleasantly surprised to find that it wasn't as oily as I had anticipated. The flavour was very interesting and unique and after a few more tastes, I decided I liked it.
My favourite way to eat it is with sliced apples, I haven't actually tried it on toast as that doesn't appeal to me, but I CAN confirm that apples and cookie butter are AMAZING!

I am a fan of Golden Oreos as they remind me of the white Girl Guide cookies. I recently saw the Thin Golden Oreos on sale (for $1.49) and decided to try them. They are even better than the regular ones!!! Because they are thin they seem crispier to me, almost like a cookie chip and fair warning: they are addictive!! -

This kit normally sells for $25-$30 and I happened to find it at my grocery store on clearance for $7. These products had great ratings, so I decided to try them out.
I have been using the 5 products included in the kit; cleanser, toner, day moisturizer, night moisturizer and mask. They all have a great, bright citrus-y scent and they are doing a great job of making my skin look very supple and bright.
I have been using them for a couple of weeks now and went back to the store and bought 4 more kits! I am really enjoying the results and it is doing a good job of clearing my skin as well.

I worked at a nutrition store in my 20s and this was a bestseller when it came to protein powder. I usually prefer vanilla protein powders, but the chocolate is the best flavour when it comes to AllMax. I have also tried the Chocolate Mint, but it was WAY too sweet for me. The chocolate is still a little sweet, but I like to add a spoonful of instant coffee to my smoothie and this helps to cut some of the sweetness.
My favourite smoothie with this protein powder? 1 banana, 1 scoop of protein powder, 1 c almond milk, 1 Tbsp of instant coffee and 8 ice cubes. Blend and enjoy. The caffeine gives you a boost in the morning and this smoothie tastes amazing!
