I’d first like to thank ChickAdvisor and Gliss for choosing me to try out Gliss Oil Nutritive Weightless Oil Hair Repair for free. I haven’t used a leave in conditioner in years and really wasn’t to sure I’d like this one simply because of the oil. My hair is oily and adding a product to it that has oil in it just didn’t seem to make sense to me. I tried to read the bottle to see just when and where I was suppose to apply it, but the writing on the bottle is so small that it was a near impossibility to do! I finally manage to find out how to use it properly and sprayed it to my towel wet/dry hair, but only through out the length of my hair. I have long hair down to the center of my back that loves to turn into a rats nest after I’ve washed it and can be a real pain to comb through, so I was hoping this would improve things. After I sprayed the Gliss Oil Nutritive Weightless Oil Hair Repair onto my hair I kind of lightly rubbed it around than combed my hair out. I was pleasantly surprised at how well the Gliss Oil Nutritive Weightless Oil Hair Repair made it so easy to get through the knots. I didn’t feel like I was ripping through my hair causing more damage than was already there, I was through it in no time at all and I don’t think I saw more the a few hairs come out once I was done. Once my hair was dry I was expecting it to end up going to an oily mess with in a few hours, but that never happened. My hair was baby soft, looked, and felt healthy and most importantly, it stayed that way for days. I wouldn’t use it everyday on my hair, but also don’t wash my hair everyday. I feel like this leave in conditioner can be used a few times a week, but I wouldn’t use it everyday. Since I’ve been using the Gliss Oil Nutritive Weightless Oil Hair Repair along with the shampoo and conditioner my hair definitely feels and looks like it use to years ago, its like I’ve turn back the hand of time and I love it! -

I’d first like to thank ChickAdvisor and Gliss for choosing me to try out Gliss Oil Nutritive conditioner for free. If you read my review for the Gliss Oil Nutritive shampoo, than you already know how much I’m in love with it. Well I love the Gliss Oil Nutritive conditioner just as much. As with the shampoo I had my concerns with the conditioner contain oil because I have oily hair. That was washed down the drain the first day I tried it. The conditioner has a pleasant scent, its thick, but you don’t need to use a lot of it. I have long hair to the middle of my back and a small amount was more than enough. It doesn’t come out of the bottle near as fast as I found the shampoo too so you need to worry about pouring out to much. I don’t normally apply conditioners to the very top of my head because I have oily hair and doing so tends to make my hair get oily faster, but when I first tried the Gliss Oil Nutritive conditioner, I went for it because I wanted to give it a full testing. When it came time to rinse I found it harder to rinse out of my hair than I do with the conditioner that I normally use. It almost felt like there was a film left that I couldn’t remove leaving me think my hair was going to end up looking an oily mess. Or it would make my turn to an oily mess with in hours of drying it. All of my concerns were for nothing! Once my hair was dry I was stunned at how clean, soft and healthy it looked. But more importantly, my hair remained looking and feeling this way for days with out rewashing it. I haven’t been this impressed with a hair care product in years! The new Gliss Oil Nutritive conditioner and their shampoo have to make it to the best new hair care products of 2017. They definitely have my vote and if you’ve been concerned about trying Gliss Oil Nutritive conditioner because you have oily hair, drop that thought and try it for your self. I know you’ll love it as much as I do if not more. -

First I’d like to thank ChickAdvisor and Gliss for choosing me to try out the Gliss Oil Nutritive shampoo for free. I must say when I first realised I received the Gliss Oil Nutritive products I was a bit concerned that I wouldn’t like them at all. I’ve always stayed away from hair products that have oil in their name because my hair tends to be on the oily side. I was always worried this type of product would just make the oil in my hair come out even more, so I’ve stayed away from them because of this. The day I got my Gliss shampoo I hadn’t washed my hair in a few days, so it was the prefect time to try it out. It comes out of the bottle really fast, so you have to keep that in mind when you’re using it. It has a wonderful scent that both my son and I love. The first time I tried it, it kind of felt like I was just adding more oil to my already oily hair and I thought nothing good was going to come of it. It does lather up nicely, but I did find that I needed to use a bit more of it to get the bubbles that I like than I do when I’m using my regular shampoo. On the first day I used it, it seemed harder to rinse out, I kept feeling like there was still product left in my hair even after I know I had thoroughly rinsed out and I was thinking it was the oil in the product that was causing this. I honestly thought my hair was going to end up looking dirtier after I washed it with the Gliss Oil Nutritive shampoo than it was before I started. I couldn’t have been more wrong about that thought! Once I got my hair dried I was stunned at how clean, soft, shiny and beautiful my hair looked! I had to keep looking at it and touching it to make sure I wasn’t dreaming. I have absolutely fallen head over heels in love with the new Gliss Oil Nutritive shampoo. All the worries I had about the oil in the product were washed down the drain along with my dirty oily hair. My hair has never felt this soft and stayed looking and feeling this great for so long in between washes. I could only go two days with out washing my hair in the past. Since I started using the Gliss Oil Nutritive shampoo along with their conditioner and their hair repair, my hair looks and feels like it did years ago and I can go up to four days with out washing it with out it looking a oily mess. If you have oily hair like I do and you’ve been concerned about trying Gliss Oil Nutritive shampoo just because of the oil, drop that thought out of your mind today and try it for your self. I’m sure you’ll be as shocked as I still am, but more importantly, you’ll fall in love with your baby soft hair all over again! -

I’d first like to thank ChickAdvisor and Got2b for choosing me to try out their Got2b Volumaniac hairspray that I received for free. I have straight long hair and really don’t have a need for hairspray, so I let my mom try it out for me and had her report how she felt about it back to me so I could write this review. My mom is always trying to put more volume into her hair and since she’s gotten older and her hair has started to thin, she’s trying even harder to do so. The first thing she told me was that she wasn’t thrilled with the scent of this hairspray and that it was sticky. She said it came out of the can well and went where she wanted it to go, so she could live with the scent and the stickiness if it worked. Unfortunately she said it worked for her, but only for a very short amount of time. She explained to me that at first it gave her hair all the volume she was looking for and she was happy with how her hair felt once it was dry. At first she really thought she was going to be happy with it. It was keeping her hair right where she wanted it and she felt like it was making her look like she had more volume to her hair. Than a few hours after she was so happy with her look, she went to the washroom and looked at her hair. She said it had fallen flat and she looked like she hadn’t done a thing to her hair and it looked and felt dirty. The day she tried the Got2b Volumaniac hairspray it was very humid hear, but that’s when you really want your hairspray to hold up and it just couldn’t do it for my mom. She said she's tried much better hairspray products in the past and gave the Got2b Volumaniac hairspray big thumbs down. She wasn't impressed at all. -

I didn't mind the scent that this got2b Volumaniac Bodyfying Mousse has and it does come out of the container well, but it just wasn't for me. It really didn't do much for my straight hair other than make it look dull, dirty and it made my hair feel stiff. I first applied it to my wet hair and let it dry on its own, my hair looked like it was still wet and it really just kind of hung there. When I touched my hair it felt stuff and after I took a brush to it things just got worse. My hair looked and felt very dry and dirty. The tips of my hair felt like an old whicker broom and I couldn't wait to wash it all out. Now if you have a different type of hair and style you probably would really like this product, it just wasn't for me. -

Received the Know Cosmetics No Bare Brows as part of my ChickAdvisor Premium membership. After I tried it I gave it to my mom and she really likes it. The colour worked well for both my mom and myself, but I think it worked better for her than myself. I have natural dark brown brows, where my moms colour has faded away with age. She really liked how it brought colour back to her brows and eye area witch really brought out the colour of her blue eyes. I have wondering brows that never want to stay in place, so I really liked how the wax end helped to keep my brows where they should be. The sharpener and little brush that came with it made things very convenient, no more looking around for either one! Its not something that I would have ever bought for myself do to the price of it, but my mom said she'll buy one for herself when this one is done. -

Thank you ChickAdvisor and Le Petit Marseillais for giving me the opportunity to try your White Peach & Nectarine Extra Gentle shower Gel for free. I recently tried Le Petit Marseillais extra gentle shower crème in their Orange Blossom scent and didn’t think I’d like another scent as well as I liked that one, but I was I wrong! First let me say that I am a citrus scent lover, so out of the five scents that are available, I definitely would have chosen one, or both of these scent for myself. When I first opened the Le Petit Marseillais’s white peach & nectarine shower gel I closed my eyes and I took a good whiff. The lovely citrus scent hit me and made me feel like I had just stepped into a nectarine orchard on a warm dewy morning, than I opened my eyes and remembered where I was.LOL. The shower gel its self comes out of the bottle nicely, not to fast and not to slow. Although you don’t have to, I like to use a shower puff when I use body washes, but it can be used with out one if you’d like. I find that you get more bubbles with a puff than you do with out one, but that’s just my personal preference. I found that the Le Petit Marseillais shower gel in White Peach & Nectarine lathered up very quickly and I only needed a small amount each time I use it to get this effect. It feels wonderful going on and the White Peach & Nectarine scent fills the bathroom waking you up making showering a pleaser to do in the morning instead of a chore. When it comes time to rinse the bubble slid right off of you leaving no sticky after feel what so ever. It also doesn’t leave a strong citrus scent behind on your skin, but it does leave your skin feeling soft and moisturized and that feeling lasts right up until your next shower. I really have no preference over gels or crème’s, I found that the gel was just as nice to use as the crème type was. If you don’t care for a citrus scent, Le Petit Marseillais Body Wash is also available in Vanilla Milk Extra Gentle Shower Crème, Lavender Honey Extra Gentle Shower Crème, and Cotton Milk & Poppy Extra Gentle Shower Crème. I’ve seen it for sale at Shopper’s where it was priced any where from around $7 to $5 a bottle. I have to say the French really know what they’re doing when it come to body wash and what women want out of them. In my opinion Le Petit Marseillais hit the nail right on the head with this White Peach & Nectarine Extra Gentle shower Gel and I’ll definitely be buying more! -

I’d like to thank ChickAvisor and Vim for giving me the opportunity to try the new Vim Power & Shine Multi-Purpose Spray with Bleach for free. I'm pretty leery of using anything that contains bleach because I’ve had a bad experience with bleach products in the past, so this isn't something that I would’ve bought on my own. How ever now that I've had a chance to try this Vim, I'll definitely be buying it again. I first tried it on my kitchen countertops because they've become discoloured over the past few years from use and do to the way they were made. Why they make kitchen countertops that have tiny little indents in the tops of them is beyond me, but that's the type that I have in my kitchen and I hate it! I have tried several different cleaning products trying to get the dirt and discolouration out of these indents to no avail that is until now. I was stunned at how well the Vim Power & Shine Multi-Purpose Spray with Bleach was able to get right down deep into those indents and bring the dirt up and out of them. All I had to do was spray the countertop, leave the cleaner sit for 20 seconds, and wipe the mess away. It was so easy and worked so fast it left me feeling more confident then I ever have been before that any bacteria that may have been hiding there was not only gone but completely gone! My countertop is a cream colour and the bleach in this Vim didn't discolour it at all. It left my countertops looking brand new and I was and still am thrilled to finally have a product that I know will work! I than tried it in my old kitchen sink and it bought it back to a beautiful shine in no time at all. This new Vim Power & Shine Multi-Purpose Spray with Bleach leaves behind NO strong bleach smell, but it does leave behind a fresh scent and beautiful shinny disinfected surfaces on everything I've tried it on. I couldn't be happier with this new Vim Power & Shine Multi-Purpose Spray with Bleach. If you haven't tried it yet I'd definitely recommend that you give it a chance, I'm sure you'll be just as pleasantly surprised as I was. Thanks again ChickAdvisor and Vim for giving me the chance to try this great new product! -

I’d like to thank ChickAdvisor and Vim for giving me the opportunity to try Vim Power & Shine Anti-Bacterial Multi-purpose Spray. This is the prefect product to have in your house to keep those nasty germs that we can’t see under control. It’s great to use in the kitchen, bathroom, and all around your home. I use it on all of our indoor garbage cans, the kitchen counter tops, on all of the cabinet door handles and all of the handles in our house. I even use it on the outer doors of all of my appliances. Any where someone might touch that Vim Power & Shine Anti-Bacterial Multi-purpose Spray can be used, I use it. It’s especially handy to have on hand when the stomach bug or any other type of sickness is going around. Other cleaners can have a strong unpleasant scent to them, but this one leaves everything smelling fresh and clean and shiny just the way you want your home to smell and look after spending the day cleaning. It also gives you the confidence of knowing you’ve removed any bacterial from the surfaces in your home that you can’t see. It’s a great product to have for those everyday cleaning jobs that we all have to do to keep our families safe and our home smelling clean and fresh. -

I also love these wipes. I've mentioned before that I have a husband and two son's that are in their early twenties that can make one hack of a mess in our bathroom and because of my health troubles, it can be very hard for me to keep up to all of them and the mess they leave behind. These wipes are so convenient to do touch up in the bathroom between doing a big clean, something that I'm not always capable of doing. They shine the chrome fixtures and sanitise the toilet and sink with one wipe making everything smell so fresh and looking sparkling clean. I also love how well they work in my kitchen. Greasy messes on our stove top wipe clean in no time at all, leaving a streak free shine. They’re so much easier than what I was using. I also really love using them after I've been cutting up chicken, or meat of any kind. Using the Vim wipes in stead of just soap and water leave me feeling more confident that any bacteria that might have been left around our kitchen is gone and my family are safe from getting sick. I think Vim Power & Shine Multi-Purpose Wipes with the nice Ocean Fresh scent are a great product to have in any home. -
