I have had eczema since I was a kid. My whole family has it and we have tried many products over the years, both prescription and over the counter. I wa so happy to get a sample of this itch relief balm to try for free throug Chick Advisor. This time of year - winter in Ottawa - is so bad because with the cold weather and how dry it is my skin get so much worse. Cracked, dry, and very itchy. I have tried many cream and balms and they help with the dryness for a short time but never last and don’t help with itch. This balm is so effective and it really provides relief. It feels really good on the skin - not greasy and absorbed into my skin. It did provide relief from the itch for the majority of the day. I like that it is non steroid so that you can use it for a long time and the effectiveness will not change. It really changed my skin - I noticed right away that my skin was way less dry and the cracks started to heal in a couple of days. I would for sure recommend this product and purchase it again. -

I don't usually like vanilla protein drinks, and I tend to stick to chocolate. I tried this one and found that the taste was not bad and it was easy to drink. I enjoyed the taste and it was not too sweet. These drinks are great and I like that you can grab and go. They have a lot of vitamins and nutrients with low sugar and calories so they are actually good for you. This is surprisingly hard to find with protein drinks. I would buy these again. -

I have tried many protein shakes and it is hard to find ones that are low in sugar and fat but also taste good. This shake had a nice, creamy chocolate taste without being chalky or tasting artificial. I really liked the texture and how smooth it was and easy to drink. These drinks have a lot of protein but also a lot of vitamins and essential nutrients. I would buy these again. -

I was excited to try these bars as I eat protein bars often and it is hard to find ones that are low in sugar and still have the same protein and nutritional value. These were low in sugar but still had high protein and other good nutrients. I was also interested to see if they would taste good as most protein bars are chocolate or peanut butter or something along those lines. The flavour on these was very different and not something I have seen before. I did not like the taste of these bars or the lemon poppy seed flavour. I did like the texture and consistency and didn't miss the sugar - I don't feel it took away from the taste. The flavour was just not for me. I found it was a bit artificial tasting and not really my cup of tea. I gave them to my husband and daughter to try as well and my daughter did enjoy them. They do have a great texture and are very easy to eat as sometimes these bars can be a bit chalky and tough to swallow.
I would recommend this brand and the bars to a friend but not this specific flavour.

I was excited to try these bars. I really like Power Bar as a product but often find it hard to consume these bars as they do tend to be high in sugar. Usually you have to sacrifice sugar for taste and they tend to be pretty chalky tasting when the sugar is removed. I was surprised that these had a nice creamy texture and a great taste without being overly sweet. I didn't miss the sugar and they didn't have an artificial taste at all. There was a nice balance between the chocolate and the peanut butter. The ingredient list is something that I feel good about and I like the added nutrients. There is also a good amount of protein in these bars making them great for pre or post workout snacks or also just during times we I am not able to get a meal in. I was happy that they tasted so good and make a great alternative for a protein based meal replacement or snack.
I would buy this brand and variety again. I would also recommend it to a friend or buy them for my spouse or teenage children. They are a good value for money for what you get and the product itself.

I used this product on all areas of my body - face, hands and body. It has a nice smell that is manly but not over powering. I like the feel of the cream and it is not overly greasy or heavy and easy to apply. The cream absorbs really quickly and does not leave hands and face slick. This cream adds a lot of moisture to skin and you do not need a lot to get softer and more moisturized skin. It did make my skin feel softer and I will keep using it. I most liked using it on my hands and noticed the most difference in terms of the results. It is a little more expensive given the size of the container but worth the cost given how well it works. -

I don't like using bleach so I was excited to try this product to see if would help with washing white clothing. I also like that it was safe for my high efficiency washing machine. I don't often wear white clothing because of how faded and yellow they can get. I did use this with some white t-shirts and other small items of clothing. It did make they brighter and look a lot more white. The best part was that there was no strong chemical or bleach smell. I also like that it does not harm your clothing like bleach does. The items came out more clean but the fabric was not compromised. It also helps with making clothing more clean and even helped with yellow staining which is often on white fabric. -

This stain remover powder has so many uses and seems to work very well for lots of purposes. It can be used on clothing but also has many other household uses. It is great to use in the washing machine to add to your normal detergent to boost the cleaning powder and stain fighting. I used it to wash my towels and other linens and it really helps to get out the build up on these products. I have also used it with clothing to help with any hidden stains and dirt. It boost the cleanliness of laundry and makes things just a little bit cleaner when they come out. I also used it to pre-treat and soak some items prior to washing and this works well for stubborn or set in stains. I have not noticed any fading or discoloration in any of my clothing either. I also tried it to clean in my bathroom and it really works well for that purpose too. I plan on trying it to clean other household surfaces and try to use it to clean the carpet. -

Between the kids, my husband and my dog I am always looking for ways to get out stains. This stain spray works better than any others I have tried. I have used it on new stains as well as stains that have sit for a day or two. It is much more effective and powerful than other stain removers on the market. This stain spray even works on grease and oil stains which are always the toughest to get out. It doesn't leave any marks or residue either on clothing. You can put the spray on and wash right away or for set in stains let it sit for a little bit before washing without any issues. I also find the spray is good value for the cost. You don't need to use a lot of it to get out the stain. -

I had high hopes for this product as I love pasta and would love to have an option that has so many vitamins, nutrients and greens in it. It was really too good to be true. The product was easy to prepare and cooked just like regular pasta. However I was not a fan of the taste of this pasta. I found that it really does have the taste of too much kale and vegetables. I eat a ton of vegetables but this was not a good and natural taste. I did not like the texture much either and just found the overall it was not a good flavour for the pasta - even with a heavy red sauce. It was just not for me. -
