I really love the scent of this body wash. I shower in the morning, and this citrus scent really wakes me up for my morning classes. I use this with a puff and it creates a lot of suds -- a little goes a long way! Also, this bottle is huge, and it lasts forever! I think I had this bottle/used it for over a year...which I don't know is a good or bad thing, but I think it's good! It's super affordable, smells amazing, and lasts forever. I will purchase this again and again. -

I've been drinking Lipton Green Tea for many years now, and I don't know if it's just me, but I've noticed it's always incredibly bitter. I brew it for 3/4 minutes in warm (not boiling/scalding) water, and it always is super bitter and dry tasting. Even Liptons green infusion tea taste bitter to me. It's not only me -- my friends and family have noticed that it has become much more bitter over time. This coupled with the price causes me to not purchase it anymore. I've found a cheaper green tea that does not become bitter, even after brewing 5+ minutes. I won't be buying Lipton again. -

I actually purchased this product at Dollarama so it was a fantastic deal for me! I don't have frizzy hair, but the winter really damages my hair, causing major split ends/flyaways. I bought this product hoping it would eliminate static hair, and boy did it ever work! I went back and bought four additional bottles because this has become my new holy grail product. I have somewhat thin, wavy hair, and it doesn't weigh it down or make it look oily. It absorbs well and minimizes the look of split ends, prevents breakage, and adds moisture to my hair so it doesn't become as static. -

I've been using this Blackhead Clearing Scrub for the past few weeks and I've fallen in love. First of all, I love St. Ives products because they're incredibly inexpensive compared to other drugstore/megastore brands. Secondly, I find them much more effective than drugstore brands. Whenever I use this scrub, my skin feels super refreshed and actually feels squeaky clean. I can tell immediately that it has removed dead skin, but as for black heads, for me, it isn't 100% effective. I have stubborn blackheads that don't budge without an extraction tool, but I think for minor blackheads or ones that appear here and there this scrub would be fantastic. In the end, I'll definitely buy this scrub again purely for its scrub claim and not for blackheads. -

I received a deluxe sample of this in Rikugien from Sephora's Beauty Insider birthday gift and I have been obsessed ever since! First of all, it's too pricey for me, but I'm glad I've been able to try the product. The shade is beautiful (my favourite lip colour), goes on smoothly, doesn't smudge or feather...I really need to find an affordable dupe of this product when it's gone. For me, a little goes a long way so I think I'll have this product for a long while. I always get compliments on the beautiful colour. It's nice and creamy...probably one of my favourite lip products. My only complaint is that sharpening it is a pain. -

I received this and another colour as Sephora's birthday gift last year. Now, I'm not a fan of red lipsticks (I'm a mauve/rose girl), but I surprisingly like this colour! I think it would look great with any skin tone. I don't lay it on thick because it is a very dramatic colour -- I add it lightly for a small pop of colour. And because of that, I think this deluxe sample will go a long way. I find that the formula is quite creamy, goes on evenly, and wears evenly. It is long-wearing which I love. I think it's definitely worth its original price. I likely wouldn't purchase this colour again, but definitely other NARS lip pencils. -

My sister received this product (and the brown colour) for free when they first came out forever ago, and since she doesn't use this product passed them on to me. Firstly, I've had these gel liners forever and they're STILL consistent. It doesn't dry up in the pot over time and has remained creamy. It still goes on like a dream. For the price, it's definitely worth it because a little goes a long way (for me). They also last years, so you definitely get the bang for your buck. As for the quality, I have oily eyelids and it tends to slip/smudge, so I would recommend using a lid primer to keep them in place. I'm not too crazy about the wands that come with the pot, but they aren't the worse things I've ever used. I use my own angle brush, but I would have no issues with using the brush it comes with. I would recommend this product to anyone who wants a good drugstore product that is reasonably priced and great quality. -

I received a deluxe sample of this product from Sephora. I've only ever tried one type of liquid liner (a drugstore brand) before this one, and I have to say this one is MUCH better. It dries quickly and is always consistent and even when applying. I'm awful at doing winged liner as it never looks even, but somehow with this product it's always perfect the first time. I love that this product doesn't smudge, is a wonderful true black, and although I never purchased this product I think it's definitely worth the price. A little goes a long way! -

I had the opportunity to try this product for free from ChickAdvisor's Product Review Club.
First of all -- the only thing orange about this product is the vial packaging. I tested this product in both water, iced tea, and diet coke and I would absolutely recommend drinking this in anything other than water. The product in water does not taste like orange at all. It has more of a vanilla flavour, and it slightly bitter. In water alone, the taste was horrible, but in iced tea and diet coke, the product is easily masked and is tolerable. As to its effectiveness, I am constantly fatigued and I noticed a bit more alertness and pep in my step after drinking it. I'm not sure if it's kind of a placebo effect or if it really works, but overall, if you can get past the flavour, it may be effective. Each box contains 20 ampoules which are easy to use, so this product is better cost-wise in comparison to the Adrien Gagnon meal replacement bars. My recommendation to others is that it's worth a try and I think how successful this product is, is based on an individual-to-individual basis.

I am not unfamiliar with meal replacement bars. When I look for bars, I typically choose products with high protein and low sugar content. Firstly, these Adrien Gagnon bars are high in protein which I love. As a vegetarian, I really need it, so that is a plus. Unfortunately, I find these bars too sweet for my palette. I find it impossible to eat an entire bar at once, so I had to split it in half and eat it hours apart so I couldn't really eat them as a real meal replacement. The one day I tried to, I was hungry in a couple hours after eating it. I'm someone who likes eating large amounts of low-calorie, healthy foods, so I think my body just wasn't used to it.
Regarding the flavour, it tastes exactly like other typical soy based protein bar products. To my taste, it's a little bitter with a weird/off-chocolate taste, but I'm used to that with protein bars. Aside from that these bars contain what I'm assuming are rice puffs, which adds a nice crunch.
Overall, I don't think this product is worth it. The taste isn't great, it doesn't keep you full, and the price is outrageous. You'd be better off making your own wholesome, protein bars at home and obtaining your essential nutrients with whole foods.
