Okay, so here’s the thing. I was sent a coupon to try this tea from ChickAdvisor, and it’s not something I would usually reach for. This tea is, in fact, delicious. But, we need to start holding companies accountable for the sugar content in our daily food and drink choices. With the sugar content coming in at 36 grams, this drink is well above the recommended amount of sugar than an adult should consume in one day. ONE DRINK. I couldn’t consciously recommend this drink with its sugar content coming in this high.

I received this product to try as part of a chickadvisor campaign. I haven’t used a hair mascara in at least 15 years, and I found the product to be about the same as I remembered from my youth (though I wasn’t covering up greys back then!). If you’re in a pinch, going to an event, and you find your greys poking through, this hair mascara does a decent job of covering them up temporarily. However, if you have a head full of grey roots, it’s not super easy to cover up your whole head. The mascara felt strange on my hair as well - a cross between dry and sticky.
It would probably be effective on someone who has less grey than me, but for me, it wasn’t really effective.

Breyers delights Vanilla Bean
I admit, I was pretty skeptical, especially when I saw the price tag ($8.99 regular price at my local Sobeys). However, since I had been chosen by the ChickAdvisor product review club to evaluate this product, I happily brought it home with me!... +

The nutrition facts are off the charts for a pint of ice cream. 280 calories/16 grams of protein in the entire 500ml pack or 70 calories/4 grams of protein in the 125ml suggested serving size. That's about half the calories of traditional ice cream.
As far as taste goes, you would think that something so low in calories would be awful as far as taste profile goes, right? Wrong. This ice cream is smooth and creamy and totally hits the spot.
If you're in the mood for an ice cream splurge, I would definitely recommend this one.

Finding Dory (2016)

Like every other Disney/Pixar movie, Finding Dory is AMAZING!
Pixar really does a good job of developing their sequels, to the point that they're almost better than the original, which is rare! (Toy Story 2 and 3 are definitely better than 1!) The humour in this movie is great, for kids and adults alike. It will be a classic for many years to come.

I received a coupon for the IÖGO pouch to review from ChickAdvisor.
Unfortunately - I am awful at remembering to use coupons... but I did remember that I needed to review this product, so I picked up the Greek Yogurt pouch the first time I saw it in the store, despite not having my coupon with me! (Haha - this is why I will never be an extreme couponer)
Anyway... I like to consider myself a connoisseur of Greek yogurt. I'm a big fan because it's high in protein, and low in carbs, and it's such a versatile product. The IÖGO Greek did not disappoint! I'd never bought yogurt in a pouch before, but I found it pretty convenient - and the fact that you can shake it up before use, makes it a lot nicer than the typical container of yogurt, where the liquid usually sits on top (which I hate!)
The taste of the IÖGO is smooth and creamy. I really enjoyed this product a lot, and would definitely buy it again!

Tampax Pearl Compak

This is the third product I tried, thanks to ChickAdvisor and Dove, in exchange for my honest review.
I am normally a huge fan of Vanilla, but of the three scents sent to me, this was probably my least favourite. The vanilla scent was the most drying of the three scents sent to me, so for that reason, I prefer the Deep Moisture of all. That being said, I did still quite enjoy this product! I will give it another go in the spring/summer, as my skin tends to be rather dry in the winter months.
My favourite part about this body wash is that a little goes a long way. Two pumps of the shower foam on a loofah was more than enough to lather up.
I would give this another shot - but if I were buying it in the store, my first choice would be the Deep Moisture Foaming Body Wash.

I received this product as part of a ChickAdvisor campaign, along with two other full sized Dove Shower Foam products. My absolute favourite was the deep moisture - but the Cucumber and Green Tea scent was a very close second! Cucumber in body products, to me, always smells fresh and clean - and this did not disappoint! I love that you can use a very small amount of the foam, and it goes a long way! A great product - I would definitely buy this in stores! -

I received this product free to try from ChickAdvisor, and OMG, it is fantastic. The deep moisture foaming body wash has a nice light scent, and it feels super luxurious. I reached for this body was first out of the three that were included in the package because of the deep moisture element. My skin gets so dry in winter, that I am willing to try anything to make it feel good. This product was perfect! After about two weeks of use, my skin is no longer dry, and it just feels amazing. I love this product! -

I received this product as part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club.
After using it steadily for almost a month, I discovered that my skin felt like it had more elasticity around the eyes, and dark spots underneath the eyes began to disappear, making my face appear less tired. I really enjoyed the feeling in my skin after using the eye cream. The applicator, in the beginning, was a little bit strange and unlike other eye creams that I've used in the past, but I got used to it, and I could see the benefit of it.
All in all, I thought this was a wonderful product, and I would buy it again!
