Premier Protein Vanilla Shake
I was pleasantly surprised to finally have a protein drink that wasn't chalky in taste. I would add this to my grocery list as well as recommend it to my friends and family!

Thank you for the opportunity to try a product that I would normally have overlooked in the store.
I was delighted to have tried this premixed protein shake. Not to sweet and not chalky like that of other brands I have tried in the past. I found it to be semi filling and that it delivered the goods that a protein shake should. The packaging is recyclable and a good size.to fit in the purse or lunch bag for on the go types. I would def recommend this product and will also be adding it to my grocery list! Thanks again for helping me explore the new and makingnit a part of my daily nutrition!

If you like thick and creamy with a yummy smell this cream is just that. Moisturizes making your skin feel young again. The only con is that with Heavy parfume smells it won't help sensitive skin as that will cause a thick cream to make you itchy. Other than that for people with normal skin and no sensitivities it's fabulous!! -

Crunchy, taste, sweet and a good addition to other meals, or desserts.
Number 1 favorite cereal of mine! A fibrefantastic regulator, a midnight snack attack, eat it wet or dry. It's a great additive when mixed with yogurt or an icecream topper:)
The only downfall I find is it is expensive to buy. The best place I've found so far to purchase this is at Costco. You get the bigger box for around 9-10 dollars as compared to the grocery stores outrages price points at around 5-7 dollars for the smaller box. Enjoy!!

Time to do some spring cleaning, cause Nivea Purifying Cleansing Ge-l is- in- the Pore house purifying it up!!!!
This is a cleanser for the oily to combination skin types. As I myself have the same I had become used to the same daily now 10 year old meh routine. I noticed it was that time again where as we age so does our skin and as i was entering in to my late 30's I was starting to resemble the younger 15 year old versioni of myself......that time when you hit pubecent years and develop those wonderful hormonal disturbances on your face....yup acne. Here I am 36 years old with non other than adult acne. I needed to adjust my daily regime with a new cleanser to help maintain and balance my unblanced state.
I went down to my favorite local Shoppers Drug Mart and didnt really know what I was looking for exactly; just kind of feeling it out cause I knew it was going to be hard to change a 10 year old habit of sorts.
I always seem to gravitate to the "GREEN" on the shelves first. It stands out from all the traditional blah whites and blues.
There it was green, neatly packaged in a med sized 150ml container,with a beaded and bubbley like gel texture and the words that read .".Nivea"in capitalized white block letters encircled in dark blue with the underlying captioning that read" Purifying cleansing gel for combination to oily skin said to self "hmmmmm and took a chance "Ok lets do this" and it was added into my extensive inventory fr daily cleansing regimes.
To tell you the truth I was expecting it to be a complete failure and was talking down the use of a gel products tat I was basing my outdated ignorance on earlier hen day gossip circle information to the rather intelligently resculpted and tested versions of todays scientific findings.
I squeezed the gel into the palm of my hand I did the feel test . smooth and a transparent consistancy with what from afar on the shelf looked like bubbles are actually little peeling scrubbs of ocean algae. Not to abrasive at all I thought as I was applying it to my face. So the peeling scrubs are gentle enough to use daily but do the job of taking away impurities and deposits from the elements of our daily adventures. I rinsed and to my suprise my face felt happier tighter fresher and it felt like it could breathe. It felt younger I hadnt been feeling this at all for the first part of my 30's and now I know why it is important to revamp your routines with your aging cycles. I did not feel dry and this helped my tempermental skin get back to some balance with of course the use of a toner and moisturizer fallowing.
There was a con I did find with it- in my opinion- the packaging does make it a bit easier to overuse. When you squeeze squeeze with ease as you can spanthe shelf life of this, for in my case- about 2 months. So for no more than $11.99 retail for a 2 month supply it is worth a try even better yet when it goes on sale it is about $8.49 A happy find for a happier face anb a happier bank account!!!! All around win win!! this has homed my shelves consistantly for the last 3 years. I did try a few others just to switch it up but heres what my skin craves. Nivea Purifying Cleansing Gel gets a spot in the highest of ranks with this chick advisor! Enjoy!

When in need of a personal private time this product delivers the goods you are wanting to achieve. Kudos for choosing the color purple for its housing(my favorite color) it is soft and shapely, light wieght, feels good to the touch and for an added bonus it is waterproof. it is discreet and quiet and uses 1 AAA battery which BTW lasts a long time. It is made from body safe materials so not to worry about pinching or scratches. With one speed it suits its Durex "intense" Bullet name. For those who mean "buisness" and those with a "get er done" attitude:) If you work hard why not play hard:)
This product can be bought at Shoppers Drug Marts, Walmarts, Rexall, Pharmasave, Superstores and online and affordably priced as well.

Neutrogena Healthy Skin Instant Skin Refiner is the first skin care product that surprisingly wowed me.
I am almost 40 years old, I am a smoker, and I work in a job that exposes my skin to all the elements of nature. I would classify my skin as a combination of oily in the T area, dry in the chin normal to oily everywhere else with enlarged pores and the early stages of aging skin. The presence of wrinkles is starting to be visible.I found this on a shelf by itself away from the rest of its family of Neutrogena products. Talk about a non intentional fabulous find- I did buy it without knowing anything about it; Just on a hmmmmm I wonder. After my morning regime I applied the mystery refiner and let it do its job. It instantly awoke my skin it felt as i imagined that of the sun coming up from behind the clouds after a quick summer rain shower. My skin was definitely refreshed. It has a very pleasant smell to that added to my after the rain moment. it smells somewhat of a light floral maybe lavender mixed with a classic smell of bubble gum from the 80's, cant quite put my finger on the scent but either way it is -for lack of better words-YUMMY. Thick and creamy with a matte finish a little goes a long way. It is recommended to use after moisturizer all over, but for me I use it just where I need it -in the T area -making the product last longer on my shelf. It didnt clog my pores and didn't feel heavy given you don't over use. I noticed an immediate change in the texture of my skin, my pores looked amazingly tighter and smaller and my skin tone looked even not so blotchy. The biggest shock for me was the difference it made on my pores. Ive spent ridiculous amounts of money on Prestige skin care products and this drug store brand killed the notion of the more you pay the better the product idea. This is a hit and should get more recognition. It comes in a 30ml packaged inside a box and is in a price range suitable for all. I look forward to applying this to my face every morning for a long period of time!! 5 stars for sure!!

For all you menthol and eucalyptus lovers this is an at home spa like party for your scalp. The longer you leave this energizing lather on the more you will benefit from the properties of menthol leaving your scalp cool and fresh, tingly and destressed. The only con I found with this product, to which-BTW- does not affect the fact that it's still my faveorite, is that it does not have a soft abundance or rich creamy lather running through your fingers:/ I feel like I tend to overuse the amount neended as I am accustomed to the lather that most store brands deliver Affordable and available in also 1L bottles I.C.O.N . ENERGY Detoxifying Shampoo can easily be found at Winners where I first ran into this treasure. If they ever get thie lather more intense and add this to the existing foundation, this will break the five star bank! I highly recommend this product to everyone except young children and babies. It may be to strong for the little ones. -

Quality, longevity, light, and a quick and easy application that leaves you with coverage that blends well all over. I don't mind paying higher price for a product and a name that I have recently grown to trust and love. Vichy was welcomed into my life after a small sample I received on a purchase I made. That was 3 years ago and now I keep expanding my Vichy collection and have not been dissapointed since. A little goes a long way -
