If you're a fan of green tea, you will not be disappointed with this brand. Out of all the green teas I've tried in the past, Higgins & Burke is by far my favorite. As soon as I ripped open the packet, I noticed a sweet scent and ultimately tasted a sweetness in the tea itself. Green tea can have a bitter undertone but not with this brand. This tea is very smooth and pleasant to drink. It contains lemongrass, lemon balm, and lemon verbena, which compliments the green tea flavor but it doesn't taste citrusy at all. This is a tea which goes down easily and doesn't need any extra sweeteners added to it. All the ingredients are 100% natural and you can really taste the premium quality. I will definitely purchase it again! -

If you're looking for a substantial granola bar to sink your teeth into, this is it. Kashi has combined whole nuts like almonds, pistachios, and peanuts with the sweetness of dried figs. It's an interesting combination, mixing both crunchy and chewy textures together. You also get the citrus flavor from the lemon, which ties it all nicely together. Not overly sweet, in my opinion, and it does taste natural. I would definitely put this at the top of the list as my favorite nutty granola bar. It also kept me feeling full, which makes it a great in-between meals snack. -

Love & Beauty is Forever 21's store brand for cosmetics. I was initially drawn to its low price and cute packaging, which was very sturdy for the pricepoint. I purchased the lipgloss in the shade Salmon, which is a peachy coral with fine golden shimmer. Although the gloss' shade looked very pretty in the packaging, I was quite disappointed that there wasn't really any color payoff on my lips. However, what I did enjoy was the texture of the gloss. It went on so smoothly and didn't feel sticky on my lips. All in all, it's a good basic, everyday gloss. Definitely good for anyone who wants to start experimenting with makeup and doesn't want to spend a ton of money on cosmetics. -

I've been using this moisturizer as my night cream and am very pleased with the results I'm getting. My skin feels soft in the morning and the texture has improved in that it looks more revived and hydrated. I really love the consistency of the cream. It's very emollient but as you apply it to your skin, it absorbs really quickly. It's not greasy, which actually makes it ideal for me when I sleep so that it won't get all over my pillow. It's very gentle on the skin and has not caused any irritation or redness. Definitely will look into repurchasing! -

I love this Lysol cleaner. I've used it to clean both the washrooms and kitchen counters and it's been gentle on surfaces. I also enjoy the way it suds as you're cleaning, which gives me the peace of mind that it's actually disinfecting. It does rinse away easily and gives a nice shine to chrome finishes. I also like the way it leaves the room smelling fresh and pleasant with its lemon scent. The spray nozzle is easy to use and disperses the proper amount of product. I will definitely repurchase this! -

Not only do I love the fact that this snack/granola bar is organic but it's also very tasty. The dark chocolate flavor is pronounced but it's not bitter at all and I did taste the sweetness of the caramel. In addition, it contains whole peanuts, sunflower seeds, rice crisps, and raisins, making it a hearty combination. Even at that, I found the bar was very easy to chew. Another plus is that it does not contain any GMOs and it's also gluten free. The only thing I would improve is the size of the raisins, as they were really small. -

This hair treatment/mask is meant to be a one-use or dual use packet, however, I used it as a conditioner over a longer period of time. I couldn't apply the whole packet to my hair because it would have left it very greasy and weighed down. However, if I applied a smaller amount to the ends of my hair as conditioner, it would leave my hair manageable and soft. I had previously tried the olive oil scent from the same brand and disliked the way it smelled. I think this original formula is better since the scent is neutral. I could see myself repurchasing this if I needed to travel and wanted to bring a packet of conditioner instead of a bottle. Not the best hair treatment in the world but good, nonetheless. -

I received this product for free for testing purposes. The duster comes with a long handle to help you reach high areas. I found the duster to pick up more dust than a rag would but you will eventually need to replace it, whereas you can wash a rag and continue to reuse it. Still, I do think it works well and I appreciate that it's a lightweight product, making cleaning easy. It's also very gentle on surfaces. I really liked using it to clean the ceiling fans and blinds. It's something I would consider repurchasing if there's a discount/sale. -

I purchased these vitamins because they contained biotin and were specifically formulated to help with nail and hair growth. I did see a major difference in my nails, as they grew quicker than usual. My hair did grow longer but I still had shedding. I would probably need to continue using the vitamins for a longer period of time in order to see better results in that area. However, I do appreciate that it is in a gummy format, making it easier for me to consume as opposed to hard capsules. The strawberry flavor was delicious, which made me look forward to taking them every day. I purchased the 220 count on sale at Costco which lasts about 3 months since you take 2 a day. Good value and good product. Will definitely repurchase. -

Fontaine Sante Hummus is really tasty, healthy, and satisfying. They come in a variety of flavours and so far, the ones I've tried have all been delicious. My favourite has to be the Caramelized Onions, which I've repurchased multiple times. However, in general, they all have the right balance of spices and saltiness, and a very smooth texture, as well. It makes for a great dip for vegetables or to spread on crackers or a bagel. Great for entertaining, as well. I also appreciate that it comes in a resealable container that keeps freshness locked in. Great value, as you are getting close to 500g in each container. I wait for a sale at Costco and get the 2-pack. Really worth purchasing! -
