This product was a nice and light conditioner and it's great for the summer when I don't feel like I need a thick and heavy-duty conditioner. Compared to the shampoo from the same Oil Nutritive line, this has a much more pleasant scent that's kind of sweet. While I didn't see any noticeable results, it did keep my hair from drying out and while this performed like almost any other average conditioner, I would purchase this product when I need a light conditioner.
I received this product for free in exchange for a review.

I received this product for free, along with a couple other products from the Gliss Oil Nutritive line, in exchange for a review. I've been using this shampoo for a few weeks now and I can't say that I've seen any noticeable difference. Perhaps if I try this during the dryer winter months, I may see different results in the same period of time, so maybe I'll have to give it another whirl when it starts to get cold again.
When I first used this product, I noticed that it had an interesting fragrance that isn't entirely unappealing, but it's not a scent that I'm drawn to. The scent isn't overwhelming though and it fades once it's rinsed out. The product itself is lightweight and lathers up nicely. My hair felt clean and didn't feel dried out, which is always a good sign. I think it's a nice shampoo, but it seems like any other average shampoo.

I was super excited to receive Mott’s Mai Tai Cocktail Mix, along with the Blue Raspberry Martini Mix, for free in exchange for a review! They came just in time for the summer season and I knew just the right person to try the Mai Tai mix with – my dad! He loves Mai Tai’s, so I knew this was right up his alley.
We tried using the Mai Tai Mix on its own with rum and vodka, and also with other citrusy fruit juices, to make a number of different patio cocktails. My dad enjoyed the flavour of the drink, although he didn’t think it tasted like an authentic Mai Tai, but if he didn’t focus on what it was supposed to taste like, he liked it. For me, I preferred mixing it with other juices and even some prosecco, which helped mask some of the almond flavour since I’m not too fond of almond flavoured food or drink items. If you’re like me, it isn’t really that strong though that it distracts from the other yumminess that is the pineapple, lemon, orange, and lime flavours!
I will definitely be purchasing this item again and I can’t wait to try the other flavours that they have available. Not only are they a great value, they’re just nice to have on hand for when you have people over. These are especially convenient for those who may be like my mom who doesn’t really know how to mix a drink as she can just add a splash of the cocktail mix and it’s done! Definitely a summer must-have.

I received this product for free in exchange for a review and I was really excited to try it especially since I've never tried a blue drink that I didn't like. This was certainly no different.
This is such a versatile cocktail mix and there are so many different drinks you can make with this. It's so easily available at grocery stores and I think it's well worth it's value given the amount you get. Any host or hostess should have a bottle or two of this around the house because their guests won't be disappointed. I tried this with my parents, along with another one of the Mott's Mr & Mrs T cocktail mixes, and we all agreed that these cocktail mixes were really yummy and very convenient. The blueberry is definitely my favourite and I'll be buying quite a few of these to have for summer time patio drinks with friends and family.

When I first saw this product, I really liked how it already had everything you needed all included in the pencil, such as the sharpener and the brush. Unfortunately, it just didn't really suit my needs or preferences. For example, I like to use more fine tip pencils for my brows and since I would typically only use this size of a pencil to fill in the more bare spots, I'd prefer something a little more creamier to make application a little easier and quick. While the colour was a bit ashy on me, it was still wearable. I like that they included a brush, but I would have preferred a spooly. As I mentioned, they did include a sharpener, which is great since this avoids having to have one on hand all the time, especially when travelling or just taking it with you for touch-ups. -

Thanks to ChickAdvisor, I was lucky enough to receive this product to review. #gotitfree I'm continuously on the lookout for new hand creams because I have very dry hands, so much so that they tend to crack even when it's not cold and dry outside. In order for them to look and feel somewhat normal, I have to apply and re-apply hand cream on a regular and consistent basis. Unfortunately, I have a tendency to do so. I'm pretty sure that this inconsistency is what makes my hands look a little less young and delicate as they could, so any added support I can get in a bottle, is always appreciated.
NIVEA Q10 Anti-Age Hand Cream has really helped my skin to look and feel better and because of that, it has actually made me more conscious of the fact that I need to moisturize often. I was first using this hand cream at night before going to bed, but I also ended up buying another bottle to keep at my desk at work so that I can use it throughout the day. I love this stuff! It doesn't have a strong scent and it doesn't leave a greasy residue, which are two big things for me. I will be buying this again, for sure.

I was really excited to find out that I was lucky enough to receive the NIVEA Q10 Firming Body Lotion in exchange for an honest review. This product it isn't too heavy, but it moisturizes my skin just as well as some of the more richer and heavier types of body lotions. I also found that a little actually went a long way and it's so comfortable on the skin. This is a great product that I can see myself using throughout every season and would recommend this for any skin type.

I was a little hesitant to try NIVEA Q10 Firming Body Oil because I thought it would get a little messy, but I was very interested in its firming properties, so I had to give it a whirl. The body oil is actually very comfortable on the skin as it's very lightweight and absorbs very quickly into the skin, leaving absolutely no oily residue.
In the couple of weeks of trying this product, I don't think I saw any noticeable firming, but I didn't use it on a daily basis, so I'm not sure if it was just the lack of consistent use. However, more importantly, I think this is a great product for those who may not need a heavy duty body moisturizer, but still need a little help in that department. Sadly, I'm not one of those, but I do see myself using this product during the warmer months, especially throughout the summer.

I received Le Petit Marseillais Extra Gentle Shower Creme in Orange in Blossom as a ChickAdvisor Premium member, and while this scent is not my favourite, I have sniffed some of the other scents at my local drugstore, and there were some others that I really liked. It just didnt have that sweet orange scent that many orange scented shower/bath products have. I would definitely purchase one of the other scents though as this product was really gentle on the skin and left me feeling so fresh and so clean!
For those who love their beauty sponges to apply their foundation, I accidentally found out that this stuff was very effective are cleaning my sponges. It seems to really breakdown the makeup and leaves sponges looking brand new. It's a multitasking product and at this price point and how easy it is to find them in many stores, it's really worth a try!

Batiste Dry Shampoo PLUS Heavenly Volume is my saving grace!!!
I was lucky enough to be selected by ChickAdvisor to try this volumizing dry shampoo and it has become my new best friend! I have thick, stubborn, black hair and while I couldn't really get the lift/volume that I was looking for at the roots, it did a stellar job everywhere else with no effort at all. I just spray it in sectioned layers while I'm putting my face on in the morning to give the product some time to dry and start working its magic. Once my makeup is done, I only have to gently massage the product into my hair a little more and in seconds, I have hair that looks like I just had it blown out! It really takes seconds!
As I mentioned, I do have black hair and this product didn't leave any white cast once I ran my fingers through my hair a little. It has just enough scent to keep my hair smelling fresh and isn't overwhelming at all. This does add some texture, but not enough where I can't run my fingers through my hair and doesn't feel like I have a tonne of product. This is for sure my go-to!
