I received a sample of these as part of the Product Review Club.
The liners work well and you get a lot of them in a small box. The design allows for wear with multiple types of underwear, which is smart and cuts down on having to buy different products for the same purpose.
However, I wouldn't recommend them and wouldn't buy them for myself for one reason -- they aren't very portable! The liners are packed loose within the box, so there is no way to keep them separate and clean in a purse or bag unless you package them separately in a plastic bag on your own. Other liners come pre-packaged so they can be simply tossed into a pocket or bag without worry.

I was able to test these out with the Product Review Club.
First off, I really was impressed with the packaging! The sticker is brilliant, and allows for discreet disposal. The tampons work well, and I didn't experience any leaks or discomfort. The applicator is easy to use and operates smoothly.
I usually use applicator-less tampons, but were I someone who preferred applicators I'd certainly buy these again, and recommend them to anyone!

Tim Hortons Frozen Lemonade
I've had better frozen lemonade, but for the price, it's a refreshing, cold drink! I preferred the original flavour to the raspberry offering, though a bit more tartness would make it better.

I'm not really a big cider drinker, but I've loved pretty much everything Alexander Keith's has offered in the past, so when my fiancee brought this home I was happy to give it a shot.
The drink is comparable to something like Strongbow, in my opinion. It's tart, but not overly sour, with a strong apple flavour. While some ciders seem to have a hoppy taste, the apple comes out on top in this drink. If you don't like apples, don't buy this, but if you do, it's sort of like grown-up apple juice. I'd be happy to drink it on a hot summer day!

I never would have purchased a Tassimo on my own as I thought it was an overpriced coffee maker. I received one as a birthday gift and I'm so happy it's a part of my kitchen, now!
I'm the only coffee drinker in my household and so, I used to either make a small batch of coffee and still have to pour some out, or spend my money at a coffee shop so I could have my one cup. With the Tassimo, it's easy for me to brew up my regular morning coffee, without wasting any leftover brew. My fiance can have a hot chocolate or cappuccino, and dinner guests can enjoy a wide variety of hot drinks without me having to use up a coffee maker, a teapot and a kettle.
My only complaint is that there seems to be less variety of T-discs than there are for comparable machines, like the Keurig. I'd like to try more options!

Peanut butter and chocolate is one of my favourite combinations, and I love the saltiness of pretzels. I wasn't disappointed in this chocolate bar at all!
The chocolate is creamy and smooth. The peanut butter is plentiful, and the pretzels are small enough to blend in perfectly without forcing you to chomp down on big chunks. I'll be buying this again!

This is a scrub that actually feels like a scrub! It's a very good exfoliant, and smells amazing.
I have sensitive skin and so I don't use it as a facial cleanser, but it works wonders on dry legs and arms, and any other place that needs a bit of refreshment. If you're going to use it on your legs I'd recommend doing it before shaving, however, because the salt can sting freshly-shaved legs!
The product may seem pricey, but it's high quality and lasts for a long time.

I bought the Bright Shadow duo in Wicked because the colours intrigued me. While they are nice and pigmented, I find the two don't really blend well together -- the purple overpowers the brown.
Still, I'm happy to use both shades, on their own or in combination with other eyeshadows. They're long-lasting and silky. I will buy HiP shadow again, but next time I'll look at each colour as a separate purchase, not a set that goes together.

I was looking for a foundation that would stand up to a full day of wear without coming off. This foundation did the trick! I apply it over primer with a wedge sponge. I find it easy to layer, and very buildable in the places where I want more coverage. It looks quite natural, not chalky, and blends very well.
This foundation is very matte, so anyone looking for a dewy glow should probably look elsewhere or apply something shimmery over top.
It does a good job of controlling oil and shine, though it does slide off a bit if my skin is particularly oily.
