I work with my hands so my nail polish chips easily, which means I have to paint them often. At first glance I fell in love with this red, it’s deep and very opaque- you don’t even have to apply a second coat if your pressed for time. The application was smooth and the thick, rounded brush fit my nail bed perfect. This polish has definitely outlasted some of favourites. It was my first time trying out Vinylux nail polish and I was very impressed, I can’t wait to try out more colours. -

After using both the retractable eyebrow pencils from Anastasia Beverly Hills and Benefit I can say that this pencil is currently the best dupe that there is at the drug store. However, I found that the texture is a bit too soft and creamy for my liking; I prefer the tip to be a bit stiffer so that I can draw little hair like strokes without worrying about adding too much product. I found that every time I used this little clumps were left behind that were noticeable so I would have to take the extra time to comb them out and slowly add more product in. Ultimately, I will not be buying this again and returning to my holy grails. However, I do recommend this if you are looking for a cheaper dupe of the high end retractable eyebrow pencils- just use a light hand. -

I usually use an exfoliant in the shower 3 times a week so when I had the chance to try this "In-Shower Facial" I was very excited. Most of the exfoliants I use are a little harsher so I was pleasantly surprised that I saw results with this one because it has a creamy texture with small exfoliating beads. Each time my skin felt soft, smooth and hydrated, without feeling like I was stripped of my natural oils. Would I call it an in shower facial? I'm not so sure of that, but I will recommend it as a great gentle exfoliant. #gotitfree -

I loved adding this product to my night time routine. I use a retinol every other night and a product to hydrate those off days, so when I had a chance to try this I was thrilled. It's a smooth gel like texture that melts into your skin the minute you rub it in. It almost instantly sinks into the skin, which I love because I hate heavy, greasy creams that just sit on top. When I wake my skin in moisturized and my dry spots are gone, it's the perfect addition to my regimen. #gotitfree -
NIVEA Q10 Anti-Age Hand Cream
I prefer to use this at night before I fall asleep and let this lotion sink into my skin because it is a rather heavy one. But when I wake up I have the softest hands ever. #gotitfree

I really enjoyed adding this cream to my daily moisturizing routine. It left my body feeling intensely moisturized and nourished. I like that it didn't leave my skin too greasy or feeling heavy. I have friends who say this cream is their best firming lotion from the drugstore so I can't wait to try it for a longer period of time to see the results. #gotitfree -

I enjoyed this body oil so much that It might just take the place of my moisturizer. I'm very picky using oils on my body because I am sensitive and hate the greasy feeling you are usually left with, but this did not feel like that on my skin at all. I usually apply after my shower when my skin is damp and it blends into my skin like a dream. Not only is my body super moisturized for the day, I am left with a beautiful glow. In regards to the 'firming' claim, I cannot speak about that because I didn't use the product long enough to see any results. Overall, great body oil that leaves my body intensely moisturized, I will purchase another when this one runs out. -

This bottle has been a staple in my collection since my teens and I just can't seem to put it down. The fresh but fruity scent is very light and wearable on so many people. Most often when I use this people will ask what I am wearing and I love that it's such an inviting and comfortable scent. I am very sensitive to perfumes and this one does not bother my sinuses or give me a headache at all. This will forever be one of my holy grails that I will never put down. -

I usually don't like lemon flavoured power bars because they tend to be too over powering but I actually enjoyed this one. The taste is light and simple and the texture itself is smooth and creamy. I usually go for chocolate peanut butter anything but this one was quite pleasing and didn't pack too much sweetness. The amount of protein was the perfect amount to keep me energized during my training session at lunch and carry me through until dinner. I am accustomed to stocking my cupboards with protein bars and I think I may just add this one to my roster.

I always have protein bars stocked in my household because we are always on the go and sometimes don't have time to eat before training or running out the door. That being said, these bars really helped in carrying us over until the next meal, without any cravings. Not only did it help us stay full, it gave us enough energy to train and it tasted great. I'm a huge critic when it comes to taste with protein bars because I can not stand those that taste too chalky or sweet. However, this one was very pleasing to eat. The chocolate and peanut butter flavour was prominent and I didn't find the sucralose too over powering like I do in other 'reduced sugar' bars. -
