I received this for free from FamilyRated for an honest review.
this is a great mop! it works well on my laminate floors in my condo. Its especially good for spots when you don't want to either pull out a mop and bucket or get down on your hands and knees to wipe up messes. It does not come with a cleaner (not sure if this is good or bad as you can simply use whatever works best for you). there were no streaks left from cleaning.
As a broom, this wasn't the most effective as I noticed it simply pushed some things across the floor which I would have expected the cloth to pick up.
I do love the fact that the cloth is washable (and not disposable) and therefore not an additional cost down the road or left in landfills until it disintegrates.
All in all, I am pleased with this product to be used as a mop.

I #GotItFree from FamilyRated via ChickAdvisor and this was definitely my favourite of the bunch.
I didn't have red peppers (because I'm not a fan) so I substituted cherry tomatoes and it was great!
This has a lot of flavour and the rice and quinoa keeps you full (no snacking on junk late at night!)
I would definitely recommend this as a dinner option

I received a package of Knorr meals from FamilyRated for a review.
The Roasted Garlic Pesto was good, but definitely not my favourite of the bunch. This is only because I am not the biggest fan of pesto.
this is great for those days when you come home late from work and need something on the table quickly. from start to finish it took about 25 minutes which is a great time saver when you have no leftovers in the fridge and need something quickly - I found this with all of the Knorr meals I've tried.
The only reason I am not giving this 5 stars is, like I said, I am not a huge fan of pesto. but if you are, this is definitely a game changer!

I love quick and healthy meals especially after a long day at work. This was perfect. I added in some cooked shrimp and it was all I needed for an entire meal. (Grilled chicken would also be great!)

I received this free as part of the Product Review Club for an honest review.
the top coat is great for a few reasons. The brush is great - wide and gets your entire nail. it dries so quickly - within a few minutes it was completely dry. so much faster than most top coats. And it was very glossy! I love shiny top coats.
the downside is that it barely lasted 2 days without very noticeable chips.
I definitely would not purchase this product as there are many more out there that actually last a week.

I try to do my nails once a week before the start of the work week. I love weekly polishes as they din't chip as easy as regular polish and keeps me looking professional..=
The colour I received was great - a neutral blush pink that matched with pretty much everything I wear. It dried very quickly and the brush it great - wide enough to get my whole nail in one sweep.
I did do my typical, 2 coats of colour followed by the top coat. I sealed the edges of my nails too to ensure longer wear. this didn't help. Within 24 hours, I began to see small chips on my dominant hand. I resealed it with the top coat. by day 2 there were huge chips in a few of my nail. Needless to say I removed it before a full 3 days. definitely did not last a week as advertised.

I absolutely loved how much protein is in this protein shake - definitely much higher that others on the market. As I usually make my own smoothies, this is much easier to take it on the go after a workout.
It was very smooth and not powdery like I expected.
There was, however, a chemical-sweetener type of taste to this smoothie (only the vanilla - not the chocolate for some reason)

I absolutely loved this protein shake. I usually make my own shakes myself using protein powder and fruits and yogurt. But this is so much easier and less sugar! (theres a lot of sugar in the fruits I use).
This tasted great without a chalky / powdery taste like I expected.
because of the high protein and low sugar (great for after my workouts!) I would definitely purchase this and recommend this to my fiends.

this is amazing!
I received this from ChickAdvisor for a non biased review and I am so happy I did!
this gently removed all my makeup - including my stubborn mascara all in a few swipes. it is extremely gentle on my skin. I had a pimple that popped (yuck!) and this did not even make is sting - it was like nothing was there! definitely worth the price! best of all it didn't dry or react to my overly sensitive skin! I would definitely purchase this.

Essie gel couture nail polish

love this stuff!!
I've tried nearly every brand of nail polish and at home gel polishes and nothing stays on as well as this does! usually, nail polish lasts no more than 3 days (tops!) chip free. I'm on to day 5 and still going strong with this stuff!!
I've also tried the gel top coat with another brand of regular polish and its still lasting longer than anything else!
I've tried all the "cult favourite" Orly base coat and Seche top coats but this beats them all!!!
the only downside is that this is a little pricier than other polishes but its definitely worth the price if I can go through the entire work week with pretty nails. (actually saving more money than having to re-doing them throughout the week). Just wait for it to go on sale - definitely worth it!
