I bought my The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Toning Solution from Sephora Canada for under 10$ Canadian, an amazing price for a solution of this size and with these quality ingredients.
Formulated with alpha hydroxy acid Tasmanian Pepperberry, this is more of a chemical exfoliator than a toner. I personally find it mild, but others I know do not, I use it rather regularly in the evenings only, and my skin responds nicely without adverse reactions, though again, I find it mild.

I bought a Laneige Grapefruit Lip Sleeping Mask because my regular lipbalm wasn't cutting it at night. I kept waking up to dry lips and having to reapply. The lip sleeping mask lasts all night and my lips feel soft and moisturized in the morning. The flavor is one of my favorite and it isn't sticky. It's pricey but a little goes a long way and one jar will last months. -

I am an apple, mango and peach lover, so a snack that combines all three fruit is heaven in a cup for me! I can get behind no additional sugar because all of these fruit are plenty sweet enough, and I love the freshness that their hint of tart brings as well.
#MottsFruitsationsFibre brings all of this plus fibre to the party, and they support the Breakfast Club of Canada! While I usually just love these cups as is, I've had them over greek yoghurt, latkes and IN pancakes (yes, in the batter, so yummy!). The added flavor (and fibre) is delicious and nutritious!
This set of cuts were #gotitfree from #FamilyRatedClub, but my opinions are my own.

I was very excited to be able to try #BatisteCleaningFoam as I was hoping it would be a more curly-haired friendly product than the traditional spray.
The scent of my Cactus Water can was light and fresh. You could catch a hint of the smell after the foam dried, but it was not overpowering, and unlike the spray dry shampoo, there was no ozone or aerosol smell, a definite plus! The foam's texture was extremely light and fluffy. When shook well and applied into the hand as directed, the foam held it shape, it dissipated almost instantly when it touched my hair. While I appreciate that there was zero mess whatsoever, I was a little confused by what I was supposed to massage into my hair. Unlike the spray though, it was very nice to have complete control over how much product went into each section of my hair and its exact placement. The foam is a much more precise waterless cleansing option.
At this stage, I will note that the Batiste No Rinse Shampoo is a product that will likely work much better on any hair type other than mine. I have the unfortunate trifecta of dark, very curly and thick hair. I still got a white cast as I could not comb through or truly massage in the product without completely destroying my curls, and my curls did get straightened to an extent by the weight of the product and I couldn't get them to bounce back afterwards. When I gave up on the curls and fully finger combed in the product, my hair looked great and felt very soft. So people with more wavy hair (or anyone who can easily run a comb, brush or fingers through dry hair) will get very good results. People with light hair will have less of a chance of any cast. I think this would be an excellent product for them, so I do rate it highly. It's not Batiste's fault my hair is a mop of curls!

A flavorful drink, Premier Protein was an excellent protein shake.
I was looking forward to the chocolate shake supplied through the Product Review Club. I was a little disappointed as it tasted a bit chalky, though this is pretty much par for the course with pre-made protein shakes and drinks in my experience. It wasn't bad, but it could have been better. As far as protein shakes go, I think it still has great potential, and would still be pretty good as a drink on the run, or maybe turned into a Popsicle!
Price-wise, as we were supplied with the sample, I looked it up and saw Premier Protein was slightly pricier than a few other protein shakes. This shake being a supplement and not a meal replacement, it could be a bit much for a few people. That's my only quibble with this drink.

A flavorful drink, Premier Protein was an excellent protein shake.
Normally, I am not fond of caramel, finding it overpowering. Surprisingly, this was my favorite flavor of the two samples sent to me through the Product Review Club. Light, not too sweet, yet filling, I wish certain coffee houses got this recipe!

This shiny gold peel off mask was a fun thing to try, but I need practice with my technique! I am so happy I got a little applicator tool from Amazon for masks like these. Because of my poor technique, there were a few wet patches even after increasing the drying time. Those were a pain to scrape and wash off, because I didn't have the time to wait for my mistakes to dry. The parts I applied correctly dried in the proper amount of time, peeled off easily without fuss or mess and left behind great looking skin. At no point did this mask tingle or burn. The only thing I didn't like was the smell reminded me of dying my hair at the salon.I would buy it again though, the smell wasn't that bad and my skin was noticeably brighter and pores tighter where I applied this well. -

I received a sample of Digesta Alpha to try for review from another review site.

This type of thing is very individualistic though, and my health problems may have just been too much. -

I really enjoyed Oh K! Bubble Sheet Mask as my first bubble sheet mask. Considering my experience with most of the Oh k! sheet masks so far has not been great, this was a very happy surprise.
The mask fit well, and was very soft. These were two of my main problems with other Oh K! sheet masks. The instructions on how to use a bubble sheet mask were very clear and accurate. The mask was pleasant to use, the bubbles rinsed off nicely, and my skin felt clean and refreshed afterwards.
The only con is that I did't find the scent very pleasant, it was pretty chemically/soapy. Not bad or overpowering, just not nice.

The Pretty Animalz Owl Sheet Mask is a nope for me.
While the sheet mask has a really cute design, that's its best feature.
I had to ditch it within 4 minutes because it was so stiff that it wouldn't stick to my face. I kept pushing it back on, it kept popping off until I was just too fed up. So I have no clue if it could do what it promises, to do that it would have to be touching my skin for long enough to work.
