I'm a HUGE fan of lemon poppy seed combinations so was pretty excited to try this bar but it was a bit of a let down. The flavour is very true to taste however, very single bite was dry and chalky and it was difficult to finish. I would not go out of my way to buy this again. #gotitfree -

I was surprised by how much I actually liked this protein bar. It has minimal sugar in it which was exactly the right amount of sweetness and the 20g of protein content was excellent. Whenever I ate this, I felt full for a good few hours and did not feel the urge to snack. The chocolate to peanut butter ratio was just right and it did not taste chalky like most protein bars tend to. Will buy this flavour again! #gotitfree -

I really liked this blush kit and appreciated the variety of shades available. The first shade didn't show up much for me so I would mix it in with the second and third shades to give my cheeks a nice, healthy flush of colour. I used the highlighter to give a subtle highlight to my cheekbones, the bridge of my nose and underneath the eyebrows but would've liked it more if it had been a lot less shimmery. Overall, it's a great palette and I got tons of use out of it. #gotitfree -

At first glance, the colours in this palette look absolutely stunning. They're very neutral and great for everyday use. However, while testing this, I found that the pigmentation and formula varied so much across this palette. The gold shade is fantastic and the formula is very long lasting...I don't understand why Maybelline didn't use this same formula for the other shades. Some of the colours were very dry and chunky that my brush was barely able to pick up any pigment. Overall, there were more colours in this palette that I couldn't use than the ones I could. And the ones that I could use lasted quite a while when used with an eyeshadow primer. #gotitfree -

I really liked this lipstick and was thrilled to test this out in Almond Rose. This shade matched so well with my skin tone. It's got a creamy consistency and goes on semi-matte. However, I would've liked it more if it went on completely matte. I also had to keep reapplying every 3-4 hours and especially after eating and drinking. So it's not very long-lasting but still a great lipstick that adds some colour to your lips without making it look overly dry. #gotitfree -
Maybelline New York Brow Precise Perfecting Highlighter

I'm not exactly sure why this product is called a "highlighter"...it doesn't exactly highlight the brow area. More or less, it helps to sculpt and define the brow area so don't let the name fool you. The stick is a bit too thick for my liking and I would've preferred it if it were slimmer with a narrow tip. I liked the creamy, matte consistency and found it was much more easier to apply directly to the brow area with a brush and blend it out. I don't feel like this product does anything my concealer doesn't already do it. It's a bit gimmicky and not an essential must-have in the makeup bag. #gotitfree -

Maybelline New York Fit Me Matte + Poreless Foundation does what it says on the bottle, however if you're looking for a long lasting, full coverage foundation, this is not it. This foundation goes on matte and feels very light when applied to the face. It provides even, medium coverage, meaning it will not cover any scars/blemishes or dark circles so have your concealer handy! I had this foundation on for about 6 hours before I noticed that the foundation was settling into my smile lines and around the top of my nose. Having said all that, this is still a pretty good foundation Maybelline has come out with and for the price, it's a steal.
I was thrilled to get the chance to try this and would consider buying this in the future. #gotitfree

When I'm craving ice cream in the summer months, I go for these. I love the chocolate fudge sauce and cookie crumbs layer on the bottom but I really wish they'd make that a lot more thicker! The ideal ratio of ice cream to cookie crumb/fudge sauce for me would be 1:3 because I already feel like they put way too much ice cream on top. In the photos they use for advertising, you think you're getting an equal amount of both but that's hardly the case at all. Either way, it's still delicious and a hit with the kids. I pick this up when there is a coupon offer or sale so it's a decent buy. -

This is one of my favourite hand creams ever! I use this everyday in the winter and anytime throughout the year when my hands are dry and rough. I prefer to put this on before bed and work its magic throughout the night and wake up with super soft hands. It's lightly fragranced and not greasy at all. And the price is a steal! -
Vichy Pureté Thermale Waterproof Eye Make-up Remover
This is an awesome eye makeup remover and the only one that removes eye makeup on one swipe. It works so well on waterproof makeup as well and leaves behind no oily residue. It did not irritate or sting my eyes at all. I will continue to use this.
