This mascara came at the right time since I needed to get rid of my old mascara and was procrastinating buying a new one. To be honest I haven’t used a Bourjois product before. The mascara is easy to apply and does not clump at all. I needed to stroke my lashes a few times to get a sensible amount on. At first I didn’t even realize the extra twist feature on the top which is a distinguishing factor from other mascara wands. Overall this is a great daily use mascara for me as it highlights my lashes nicely and extends them. -

I was excited to try the Clarins lip stain as I haven’t used a lip stain before and I usually don’t wear lipstick because I don’t have time to reapply every so often in the day. Applying the lip stain was easy it went on very smooth and shiny. I really like the colour I chose (rose water) and I love that it stays on for quite a few hours through kissing my baby, eating food, drinking beverages. It seems as though this product will last a long time as you don’t need very much to apply and you don’t need to reapply throughout the day. It also tastes very good. -

I have been using aluminum free deodorant for a couple years and was excited to try Dove's 0% Aluminum Deodorant. Since I received this product I have been applying the deodorant about once a day and I am pleasantly surprised with the results - it is beating out my current aluminum free deodorant brand! I love that this deodorant applies clear and it's scent is really nice. I continue to smell nice even after all day wear (running around with a baby, doing a salsa workout class, etc). I love the twist feature on this product and it seems like the size of it will last me a long time. It's always a risk to try a new product (especially a natural deodorant as it's hard to say how our bodies will react) but I will definitely be purchasing the Dove 0% aluminum free deodorant in the future and recommend it to my family and friends. -

I wear makeup often and always wash my face before bed with a cleanser to ensure I do not go to bed with makeup on. I have used a makeup cleansing wipe in the past and noticed my skin react negatively to it so I have stayed away from them. I was excited to try Neutrogena's All-in-One Make-up Removing Cleansing Wipe because I need a quick way to remove make-up to have time to care for my newborn baby. I love the size of the wipe. There is enough surface area to cover the whole face and to ensure eyeliner, mascara, etc is also taken off with additional wiping. My face did not react to the wipe at all. The wipe could have had a little more moisture in it. I'm not a fan of the waste of packaging with this product. Yes, it is perfect for travel if you want to stick one in your purse if you are going away overnight but if it is just for use at home the wipes could be sold in a resealable container. -

One sunscreen product that I swear by is Neutrogena's Ultra Sheer Dry Touch - I have used that product for a few years and trust it on my face. It's no surprise I really enjoy using Neutrogena's Hydro Boost water gel sunscreen. I love it's light weight feel on my skin and it's light, fresh scent. It is easy to apply and cover the skin and absorbs quickly. I apply this sunscreen when out to walk my baby and trust an SPF30 to do the job to protect my skin. It's not the most natural sunscreen as it does contain 4 active ingredients that are potentially damaging. -

I haven't used Neutrogena products in quite some time. I was excited to try the Hydro Boost hand gel cream as my hands are always dry lately due to using hand sanitizer often (I have a newborn baby). Before applying a new product I smell it and the cream smell reminded me of a cleaning solution - the smell is a little too strong. When applying the cream onto my hands I liked the cool feeling it gives my skin - will be nice to apply on a hot summer day! It absorbs very quickly into the skin and doesn't leave a greasy feeling. I have heard a lot of positive comments on hyaluronic acid and am pleasantly surprised it is in this product. This product claiming to be "dermatologist recommended" is a bonus. You can never have anough hand creams - one for each purse and don't forget one in the diaper bag! -

It was very difficult to find the Mango Peach Fruitsations cups in store. They must be quite popular! I was excited to finally find it as my go-to flavour is usually some kind of a berry for products like these. The Mango Peach flavour is the perfect amount of sweetness and I like tasting a hint of apple tartness. Keeping it refrigerated makes it a perfect snack for those warmer Spring/Summer days. It's an easy on-the-go snack you can take and eat anywhere. A bonus is that this product has added fibre which is something I need as I am currently breastfeeding. -

When my daughter was born a couple of months ago we were using a combination of Pampers and Huggies wipes. Both did the job however I noticed I would need to use quite a few at once and they had a strong scent. I was recommended to try Kirkland baby wipes by other parents. I had my hesitation because I didn't think Kirkland brand could outdo the brand names I was familiar with. However, I got a box of 9 Kirkland baby wipe packages (a total of 900 wipes!) To my surprise, these wipes are larger (sometimes I only need to use one) and they don't have a scent. I am very pleased with these wipes and will continue to use them and recommend them to others. -

I received a generous sample of the L'Oreal pure clay mask - purifies and mattifies + eucalyptus. Firstly, I love the eucalyptus scent whether it is in an essential oil or in a beauty product. This mask was very easy to apply to the face, I use a flat make up brush to ensure even application. The product dried in about 10 minutes and was easy to wash off. My skin felt silky smooth and smelled lovely after cleansing. -

I haven't drank fruit punch in a long time but it has always been a favourite flavour of mine in juices. I decided to try Minute Maid's fruit punch juice and was extremely satisfied with it's taste, I couldn't stop drinking it! It is certainly a thirst quencher on a hot summer day. -
