I was very happy to be selected to try out this lemon flavor infusions! I cook with lemon juice on a regular basis, so I was pretty excited to try the infused line. I always have a bottle of lemon juice, I found this infused bottle hard to find. I did finally find it, the day before the coupon expired. Maybe it's small town living, maybe it's covid, maybe a mix of both. Store shelves are not looking like they usually do.
I made lemon chicken with a mix of veggies with this. It turned out well. I will definitely finish the bottle. That being said I always have garlic on hand so I probably wouldn't purchase this again. Plain lemon juice is much more versatile and I can add garlic as needed. If it's a texture thing and you don't like chunks of garlic then by all means, this is the bottle for you. If you have a recipe using this specific mix, then carry on. For myself, I use lemon juice for a variety of things and not all of them require garlic so this would just be another bottle in my fridge.
Good, but not worth the fridge space in my opinion.

I love chocolate and chocolate milk is a favorite treat in my house. I always gravitate towards the chocolate protein shakes first and end up being disappointed by gritty textures, odd aftertaste or just..ick. Naturally I tried this chocolate shake with low expectations and I'm happy to say I have found the one. It was creamy and sweet, it reminds me of sugar free chocolate pudding. I added some ice and turned it into a chilled protein snack. 30g of protein and 1g of sugar! I read numbers like that and fully expect it to taste like garbage, it's a unicorn friends. Super tasty. 100% have found my chocolate shake soulmate. Excited to try some different recipes with it. Half coffee half Premier protein - boom - mocha! Add some ice - boom - iced mocha treat.
I thought the price is was a bit high, this is what was keeping me from trying it. I didn't want to drop that much and have something I didn't like. I'm happy to report that while it's still a bit pricey, the recipes I've seen and the things you can do with this magic liquid make me no longer hesitant to purchase and sneak more protein into my diet. Bonus points for hiding it in what feels like a treat!

I've tried many protein shake powders and was kind of weirded out by having an already mixed protein shake sitting on a shelf. I heard great things about premier protein and was really excited to try a couple without having to purchase a large amount of them in case I didn't like them. I'm glad they sell large quantities because these are delicious. Creamy and sweet, this reminds me of jello's sugar free caramel sundae pudding - but in liquid form. Something I can have to satisfy my sweet tooth without the mountain of sugar. Great post workout - great for an on the go snack. Definitely a healthier option than what I would usually grab on the go when I'm out! -

I love ice cream, but my stomach does not. I was thrilled to be chosen for this campaign. I was given a full value coupon from Chick Advisor in exchange for my honest review. I was picked to do a review of the Cherry Garcia flavor.
I'll be honest, I probably wouldn't have tried this without a coupon first. I think nearly $7 for a 1/2 pint of ice cream is a little crazy. That being said, then I tried it. It's creamy, smooth, not gritty at all and full of giant sweet cherries and delicious chunks of chocolate fudge and the ice cream had a subtle almond taste that I think fit perfect with the cherries. As I was scarfing down my 1/2 pint with the little plastic shovel that was included I realized just WHY these little tubs of delicious are so expensive. The ice cream is smooth, the flavor is divine, and they don't cheap out on the non-ice cream candy mixed in. There were whole cherries, not little tiny remains of cherries, and big chunks of fudge-y goodness. And you know what, I've paid $5+ to get an ice cream treat from other places and it's not nearly as good (and did I forget that another huge selling point for me is that this is dairy free? All the ice cream and none of the belly pains - count me in!) It's definitely a treat - I won't be buying a little tub every week, but I'm definitely curious enough that I'd splurge every once in a while and try the other flavors. If you love ice cream but are like me an have instant regret when you eat it, I would absolutely recommend this little tub of non-dairy gold. There's a reason Ben & Jerry's is such a successful ice cream company. I hope they will develop more flavors in this non-dairy line.

I received this sample just in time for spring cleaning. We recently moved from an apartment with carpet to a house with hardwood floors, so I've been adjusting to mopping instead of vacuuming all the time. This floor cleaner smelled really nice! (I hate the weird smell vacuums seem to have) It was fresh and clean but wasn't something that hit you in the face when you came into my house like "HEY GUYS WE JUST FINISHED SPRING CLEANING!!" Left the floors shiny and not at all slippery (which I'm sure my dog appreciated - he slides around enough!) A little went a long way and although we didn't have any major spills or mud that we were mopping up, I was happy with what it seemed to pick up. Will definitely be adding this to my list of things I need for my floors. -

I've always been a fan of the vim cream, I find it takes off any weird rings and marks I find on my tub with very little elbow grease. It has a light lemon scent I've always associated with the kitchen, but was happy to have it in my bathroom. The scent doesn't last, but the day you clean your bathroom it smells so lemony fresh. It wasn't super harsh on my hands (I didn't wear gloves - ooops) and while it did dry out my hand a little bit, it was nothing compared to some of the cleaners i've been in contact with. Definitely impressed with the cleaning power and I'm loving the much more subtle scent. -

The pink flower isn't a bad scent, it just isn't my favorite. It cleans just as well as the other vim cream cleaners I've tried leaving my stove top clean and no residue after I'm finished cleaning. It's a great alternative if you prefer a floral scent over the lemon. It's not over powering, I think at this point it is a matter of choice. Product does what it is said to do and does it well. I'll definitely be using the rest of it. -

I find so many bathroom cleaners choke me in the tiny bathroom. This one was a great spray on and smelled clean without being super strong smelling and making me cough up a lung. Really didn't have tough stuff to clean, but any marks were easily rubbed off. I was happy that this spray moved from the tub tiles to the sink. Having a million different products is a bit of a pain for such a tiny space. -

I was sent this product as a free sample in exchange for an honest review! My first impression was that I wasn't a huge fan of the smell, but over the past few weeks it's grown on me. It smells tropical and with the nicer weather finally hitting it makes me want to plan a vacation. It's not a strong smell and does not stay in your hair. It's not a huge deal, but as someone that works in a scent sensitive, this is something I have to think about. It doesn't lather like a traditional shampoo, but it lathers a whole lot better than other natural shampoos i've tried. I have been using a little more than average, but my hair is quite long. I've been using it along with it's matching conditioner and have noticed a HUGE difference in my hair. It's very soft and any "fly aways" have been tamed. I haven't noticed a lot of "volume" but my hair is fine and straight, so I don't really know how any product would build volume without making it feel like there is something in it. I wouldn't recommend this product if you're looking to build volume, but it has definitely impressed me as a natural, cruelty free product. I'll be recommending this to anyone looking for a natural shampoo. -

I was sent this product by ChickAdvisor for free in exchange for an honest review. My hair is pretty healthy, but definitely temperamental. If I switch shampoo, conditioner, water, the seasons changing, looking at my hair funny makes it cranky. I was nervous switching to a natural product as I haven't had great experiences with them before, but this one was definitely not like others I have tried. I only put conditioner on the bottom part of my hair, my ends are really the parts that benefit most from a conditioning product. Combined with the shampoo, my hair is SO SOFT and it has really helped with any frizz my hair usually decides to pull during the season change. The conditioner is a thick and I really didn't use that much, like I said, only the bottom part of my hair. I think it would be a little too much for me to use through my hair, unless it was really dry from a color or too much sun. The smell is a light, tropical smell. It wasn't my favorite when I first received it but the smell has definitely grown on me over the past few weeks. It's not a super strong smell and doesn't seem to stay in your hair. I'm absolutely happy with this natural product! -
