I was really excited to try Aveeno Eczema Care Itch Relief Balm because I have a lot of redness and dry skin. The balm itself is very moisturizing. It is a thick consistency, kind of like a thick cream and petroleum jelly mixed together, but it is non-greasy. I used it on the back of my hands because they tend to get red and crack in the cold winter air, and it was very healing. It was also very effective on any patches I got on my body that tend to get red and flaky.
I tried it on my face because I have bad eczema around my chin and unfortunately it did not work. After a few days it was really flaring up and spreading so I had to switch back to my usual products, and mixing in some tea tree oil which helped to calm it down. Its been 2 weeks and the area still looks scarred from the flare up. Im not sure if it was due to the cold weather, the change in my skincare, or if it was bound to flare up but it was not effective on my face. I cant really blame this balm for it because I have found it has been hit or miss whether products work for me or not. I found the balm to be very healing otherwise, and would recommend it for people with mild eczema, or for someone looking for an amazing moisturizer.
Value: 5/5 - It can be expensive but you do get a huge tub for $20. The price is comparable to other eczema products and a little goes a long way with this one.
Quality: 5/5 - I think the quality is very nice for a balm. It is thick and moisturizing and non-greasy.
Effectiveness: 4/5 - I had mixed results with this product, so I think the effectiveness can vary from person to person, depending on their skin condition.
I received a jar of Aveeno Eczema Care Itch Relief Balm from @chickadvisor to evaluate in exchange for my honest review. #gotitfree #tryaveenoeczema

I was sent CND Vinylux Top Coat for free in order to test and review.
Even though my "weekly polish" began to chip after 2 days, I really did like this brand and top coat as well. The top coat made the polish look very shiny and did help protect it somewhat from chips as well. I have used other top coats from other leading brands and some actually cause the colour to peel entirely off the nail. I feel like this one held up fairly well, even if it did fall short of its 7 day promise.
I would probably repurchase this top coat once this bottle runs out, and definitely recommend it to friends to try.

I was sent the CND Vinylux Weekly polish in the shade TROPIX to test out and provide my honest review.
I've been wearing it for the past week, and now on day 7, I'd say it's pretty chipped! I'm sad that it didnt last the entire week BUT what I did love about this polish was that it did apply evenly with 2 coats, the brush shape made it really easy to put on, and best of all it had an amazingly fast drying time.
It did give me a good 2 days without chips, and I will probably go out and buy maybe a red and nude shade for special occasions so I can do my nails and not have to worry about them nicking or chipping for that day.

This bio-based cleanser is biodegradable and VOC free. It has no harsh fumes and does a great job cutting through grease and dirt, being very effective in the kitchen and bathroom. It also did a great job on glass and mirrors, and left them clean and streak free.
It was very easy to order the products online, and shipping was very fast. Shipping is only $5.99+tax for your order, or free when if you're spending over $40. It is very convenient process to order online, and would recommend it to anyone who loves Seventh Generation products.

It was a very simple process ordering from https://www.shopseventhgeneration.ca/ and they offer fast, free shipping to the GTA when you spend $40+. Everything was well packaged and I received my order within one day.

This is a very nice laundry detergent with no dyes, synthetic fragrances, or artificial brighteners. It did a good job on washing linens, and left the laundry smelling fresh and clean. I would definitely recommend this detergent to anyone with skin sensitivites.
Ordering from the website was very easy, although I wish more products were available to choose from. Currently they deliver within the GTA for $5.99+tax, or for free when you are spending over $40. My order arrived the next day and was well packaged; liquid products were in a plastic zip bag, in case of leaks. I think being able to order online is very convenient, especially for busy moms or people with mobility issues, or to purchase products that might be hard to find in stores.

The Premier Protein Vanilla Shake is a great way to boost your protein intake after workouts!
The shakes are high in protein, vitamins, minerals, and calcium, and low in sugar and calories. I like that it has a smooth texture and comes in a recloseable container to take on the go as well. My only dislike is that has a strong artificial sweetener taste, and its overly sweet as well. I found this more in the vanilla flavour than the chocolate.
I would, however, recommend this to anyone looking for shake with a high protein content.

The Premier Protein Chocolate Shake is a great option for a meal replacement that is high in protein.
The shakes are great as a go between meals, and help to keep you fuller longer. The taste is ok, has a smooth texture, and doesn't taste chalky. I also love that container is recloseable because sometimes half a serving is all I need. The only thing I dislike about this is that it is sweetened with sucralose so it does have that "artificial sweetener" aftertaste.
I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a high quality shake with a boost in protein.
Love that I #gotitfree to try and review. Thanks @ChickAdvisor and #tryPremierProtein!

I am so excited to have gotten to try the crystal eos lip balm. i was already a fan of the original lip balm but i love this one so much more. I got to try out the hibiscus peach scent, and it is absolutely divine! i cant wait to try the vanilla one. the balm itself is like a hard gel, that melts onto your lips as you apply. it has a great scent, is colourless, but leaves a very pretty sheen on your lips. it is made from 5 natural oils (castor, shea, coconut, avocado and sunflower) and it is very hydrating. when i apply before bed, i wake up with it still on and it makes my lips super soft. wearing it during the day, i have noticed it still on even after an hour.. it is very long lasting in terms of lip balms. i would definitely repurchase and recommend to my friends... its a great product! thank you @ChickAdvisor and @eos for giving me a chance to test this out! #gotitfree #tryeos -

I was so happy to have the opportunity to try these bars out. I picked mine up at Metro for $4.99 for a box of 5 individually wrapped Blueberry Oatmeal bars. I really like how moist and fresh these are, and that they have such a great blueberry flavour. I like that they are made with real pieces of fruit, nuts and whole grains, and I especially like that they taste like a homemade treat.
I would definitely buy this again in lieu of other granola bars I buy for snacks, and would recommend it to anyone looking for a fresh baked option.
