I received this product free as part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club. I found that this product worked very well and came through on its claims. Compared to other brands such as Eos, I preferred the way Nivea leaves my lips feeling. I also prefer Nivea to eos' packaging. I would probably purchase it again depending on the price in store, and I would recommend to friends! -

I received this product free as part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club. I found this cleansing lotion to really live up to the claims on the bottle, "gently cleanses face and eyes." My skin felt clean and moisturized after using it, though I must say wiping it off instead of rinsing it off felt a little weird! It was extremely gentle due to its formula, and I could get used to that. I have tried other cleansers that make my skin feel cleaner, but they generally dry my skin out or make it feel tight. Nivea didn't do either of those things! I would recommend this to a friend, and I would probably purchase it again providing that I had a coupon. I find their pricepoints to be a bit steep, but the quality shows. -

I love brewing up one of these when I need to relax or when my throat is feeling a little scratchy. I like to think of these as Neocitrin but without the medicinal ingredients. These smell great and taste even better. I really like using k-cups too, for coffee, tea, and hot chocolate. -

I received this product free as part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club. I can't say enough good things about the spinbrush! It lived up to its advertorials, and then some. My teeth felt much cleaner after using the spinbrush instead of a manual toothbrush, getting into the spots where food and plaque were. What I like about this toothbrush, more than its results, is the price. At a recommended price of less than $15 in Canada, this is a great option for people who can't afford electric toothbrushes that are generally priced at $100 or more. I would purchase this again and recommend it to family and friends. I plan to buy the replacement heads after I've used this one for three months too. Can't wait to see what results I can get with continued use! -

I was able to get this on sale and it saved me from the dry skin I usually get in the winters. I'm still using it and it definitely does what it promises - keeps skin hydrated and healed, and absorbs quickly. I would recommend this to a friend for sure. I also like that the scent is subtle. -

This product works very well at protecting you from getting sunburnt, particularly if you apply every two hours as directed. However, I didn't really like the formula itself and how it left my face feeling. It is a very thick formula and left my face with chalky white residue at first. I began mixing it with moisturizer to prevent this but my face ended up being extremely oily as a result. I am going to try Neutrogena's line of Sport face and body sun screens to see if they are better for me. -

I received this product free as part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club.
I am not a fan of mint or menthol flavours in general unless they are in toothpaste, so it was an easy choice between mint and the berry bliss. That being said the flavour and scent of the berry bliss are excellent. It's not so strong that those around you will notice it, but it smells very nice as you're applying it and as you're wearing it.
I really like how in both the cube and stick version of Softlips 5 in 1 the lid and the actual product applicator snap together tightly so you know that it won't open in your purse. I much preferred the cube version of the Softlips LUXE lip moisturizer as it was very solid when applying whereas the stick version felt a bit flimsy. I prefer the actual lip balm product from Softlips to other lip balms such as Eos or Burt's Bees.
It claims it will hydrate, smooth, shine, protect, and replenish lips, and I would say that it does all of those things. Even after just one use your lips do feel hydrated and smoother.
I would purchase the cube version of this product again and recommend it to friends. I would say that the price point is a bit high at $4.67, but worth it.

Out of the Silky Shea and this flavour, this was my favourite LUXE lip moisturizer. You only have to open the container to smell the intoxicating coconut scent. The Silky Shea smelled very nice as well, but the scent is less noticeable than this one. The lid and the actual product applicator snap together tightly so you know that it won't open in your purse; however, the applicator itself feels very flimsy and doesn't stay in place when applying. I much preferred the cube version of the Softlips LUXE lip moisturizer in that respect as it was very solid. I prefer the actual lip balm product in this one to other lip balms such as Eos or Burt's Bees.
It claims it will hydrate, smooth, shine, protect, and replenish lips, and I would say that it does all of those things. Even after just one use your lips do feel hydrated and smoother.
I would purchase the cube version of this product again and recommend it to friends, but would not purchase this version again unless they made the applicator tube stronger. I would say that normally $4.67 is quite a high price point for lip balm, but this does work very well and I could see myself purchasing this brand again.

I absolutely LOVE the scent of this body wash. I'm usually more of a fan of coconut or pomegranate, but the combination of plum and sakura blossom is amazing. The product itself is very moisturizing as it promises, and makes you feel very clean.
Normally it would be too expensive for me, but it was on sale at No Frills and Rexall for 2.97 and I had a great 1.50 off coupon. I should go and get some more before the sale's over!

I got a small free sample of this when I ordered something from Sephora a while ago and have just now gotten to try it. I really like the scent because it's strong but not overly floral or saccharine. As it promises, it definitely has staying power, but not in an overpowering way. The price point for a 1.7oz bottle is quite expensive, but as it is a premium brand, that is par for the course. If I were to purchase it I would start out with the 0.2oz rollerball which retails for $32 at Sephora Canada right now. The scent also comes in a variety of beauty products such as creams and even deodorant spray.
My favourite perfumes are still Marc Jacobs and MyNY DKNY, but this scent is becoming a close runner up.
