Disclaimer: I #gotitfree from @Chickadvisor and @PowerbarCanada
While I loved the crunchy texture from the cashews and the smooth salted caramel and dark chocolate taste I am undecided based on the nutrition facts. There are 10g of protein - without that overwhelming protein powder taste - but also 10g of sugar, cane syrup being the third ingredient. It also has 28% of your daily fiber requirement satiating your hunger while you are on the go or to refuel after the gym. Personally, I liked the taste and relatively low cost (approximately $1.40/bar including tax in Ontario) but this is a treat bar or something I'd eat on the go, not after the gym.

Firstly, I received this product free through #chickadvisorproductreviewclub but my opinion is my own.
As many people have stated the bottle is small - only 40mL- but a little goes a long way. I've been using this for nearly two weeks mornings and nights now and there's a ton of product left. It is very lightweight and applies very smoothly. Just take a small amount and tap or massage it into your freshly washed/clean skin. While I haven't tested the 48 hour claims it does last all day and works well under both powder and liquid foundations. I found my T-zone looked a little greasy initially but after a few minutes the product had absorbed properly into my skin. I didn't see any decrease in general redness nor dullness but this thoroughly moisturized my face. With it's fragrance free sensitive skin formula I would highly recommend this to someone with sensitive skin or even just dry skin as a great winter moisturizer.

This is a high quality brush! The bristles are very soft and do a great job of blending out powder foundation/blush/bronzer. It works perfectly for its intended usage- powder/mineral foundation. However, if you are using it with liquid products or looking for very full coverage I suggest using another brush and coming back to this for bronzer and/or blush. Another consideration is this brush is perfect for travel. It's small enough to fit into a travel bag or your purse for on the go touch ups without fumbling with a minuscule sized brush.

I was apprehensive about receiving this foundation; choosing a foundation color online (or even in stores) tends to be a hit or miss for someone with my skin tone. I was pleasantly surprised to find it was a perfect fit when my package arrived. It is a loose powder foundation so you can build up the coverage if you'd like. I love grabbing this for my ten-minutes-before-I-need-to-rush-out-the-door routine. A very light dusting of powder takes care of any redness, gives a very natural look, and helps keep you looking matte throughout the day. Or if I have more time layering this with concealer and a powder blush and bronzer completes a more elevated look. While I haven't purchased it yet there's an amazing deal at Shoppers drug mart for a starter kit including a primer, foundation, concealer, bronzer, translucent powder, brush and case for $50. I can't wait to grab it on my next trip!

I was initially excited to use a silicone free primer but as it is silicone free it doesn't have the same 'slippery' feel to it. I tried using this primer over several days and it works best layered over a moisturizer. It didn't make me breakout and helped my makeup last though out the day! Without layering a moisturizer underneath I did find the product a little difficult to spread but it did work just as effectively.

I received this product for free from EOS through the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club.
This lip balm has a delightfully clean minty scent and is somewhat moisturizing. This organic version is a step up from the regular mint lip balm EOS sells. It is more moisturizing and 100% organic. However, in comparison to other lip balms by EOS it isn't as moisturizing and I find myself needing to reapply it more frequently.
In the end, I recommend going with another scent/flavor in the EOS organic line.

I received this product free from EOS through the chickadvisor product review club.
The good: Wow! The first thing you notice opening up this package is the amazing scent. It smells like lush ripe strawberries without being overpowering. The lip balm is easy to hold and applies on very smoothly. It is moisturizing without being greasy or sticky. This is definitely a must buy for me!
The bad: Like all EOS lip balms it is in a spherical package so it's not easy to carry in your pocket or small clutch.

I liked this product. It has a nice delicate almost floral scent. The shampoo doesn't lather up as much as other shampoos but it works really great. It's a great deep cleansing product and hydrates your split ends. In tandem with the conditioner it works really well to soften and moisturize my curly hair.

This conditioner is a great basic product. I have curly hair and this helps to make it feel soft. It also makes it easier to untangle afterwards which is a huge bonus. It smells nice and is very light weight. I do still require a hair mask twice a week because this doesn't work perfectly for me.

These eye drops are amazing! I've tried other brands before but these worked so much better for me. I love the tiny vials you can rip apart from the pack and take on the go. They do have the traditional eye dropper style as well if you prefer that. After my laser eye surgery these were a godsend. -
