These vegan gummies provide half of your daily vitamin C requirements and one third of your daily Zinc along with premium black elderberries. I wasn’t sure I would like the taste but they are actually quite enjoyable. I can’t speak to their immune support effectiveness after only having sampled two, but they are certainly worth a try!

I got this free from Butterly in exchange for my honest review.
I really like the scent of this deodorant. It smells super clean and fresh, yet it is subtle enough to not interfere with my perfume. It glides on very smoothly and feels nice on my skin. I applied it before working out every day for two weeks and I’m happy to say it did its job. Great product!

I’m never one to pass up an opportunity to test products, as long as they are things I would actually use.
This time I got to try Cover Girl Simply Ageless Lash Plumping Mascara.
My impressions:
The brush is lovely - it’s thick and curved and deposits the mascara evenly with no clumping.
The mascara is comfortable to wear. It doesn’t get “crusty” when it dries, as some others do. It also doesn’t flake off, even after wearing it all day.
It promises thick, longer and stronger looking lashes in 4 weeks. I look forward to seeing how my eyelashes look and feel as I continue to wear it.

I was eager to try this product as anyone who knows me knows I am a terrible sleeper. I had read a lot recently about magnesium as a relaxation and sleep aid and wondered if it, in conjunction with gaba and melatonin, would help me have a better night’s sleep. I took this supplement three nights in a row and I would say I slept slightly better and perhaps more soundly. I wonder if it will have a cumulative effect if I take it every night for a few more weeks. It is certainly worth a try! -

This one surprised me! I have taken omega 3 capsules before and ended up with a horrible fishy aftertaste and nausea. That really put me off and I didn’t see how the fish flavour could be masked, so I didn’t try any other brands. This liquid supplement actually tastes like creamsicles! We’re taking it every day now with our other vitamins and minerals. -

and they were exceeded! These ice cream bars are delicious. The vanilla ice cream is smooth and tasty and the chocolatey coating with almonds is heavenly. I honestly would not have guessed this treat was lactose and sugar free. The only thing I would change about these delightful bars? Make them bigger! -

I was selected to test out Arm & Hammer Cloud Control cat litter. I #gotitfree from PetSmart.
I have two cats of my own and also foster kittens, so I go through A LOT of litter. I was interested in trying this one since the amount of dust with my usual brand gets annoying.
The texture of this litter is different. It reminds me of sandbox sand. It is quite pleasant to scoop, which I know sounds odd, but it seems lighter than clay litter and the clumps don’t stick to the litter box.
I did not, however, care for the scent of it and the other humans in my house didn’t either, but the cats and kittens didn’t seem to mind at all.
I’m hoping more scents, or even an unscented version will become available soon. I would definitely switch to this litter if that was the case.

Let me preface this by saying I am a big fan of Neutrogena products and have been for years. I was happy to be selected by Chick Advisor to test Neutrogena Hydro Boost Body Gel Cream for free.
The bottle is quite large and the pump is convenient. I had high hopes until the first pump. This lotion does not smell nice. The scent reminds me of the cheap sample-size bottles hotels provide their patrons or the kind of off-brand lotion you’d buy at a dollar store.
I tried it for a week anyway, hoping the scent would fade and its effects on my skin would be noticeable. Unfortunately, that was not the case. After a couple of hours my skin was already showing signs of dryness.
This product might be suitable for slightly dry or normal skin; it just wasn’t suitable for me.

My daughter and I, who both have long, thick, curly hair that tends to be dry, both tried this conditioner for a week. We had nearly identical experiences with this product.
First, the pros: it smells divine and the scent lingers even after rinsing and drying your hair; it comes in a tube, which we prefer over a bottle as it is much easier to squeeze out every last drop.
The cons: the texture is quite watery, perhaps best suited for fine or thin hair; it doesn’t help with detangling and doesn’t soften as much as we had hoped it would.
We will stick with our regular brand of conditioner.

I was lucky enough to receive Nivea Micellair Water for Dry and Sensitive Skin From ChickAdvisor for free.
I remember when I first read about micellar water a couple of years back and I was so excited to try it. I tested three brands and found while they all did a decent job at removing makeup, they all left a film on my skin. My face just didn’t feel clean.
I was disappointed until I read about Micellair, which claims to leave no residue. This product keeps its promises. It does an excellent job of removing makeup, even my fibre mascara. After using it, my face feels clean and not oily or tight - very pleasant. My skin is consistently clear now. I am so pleased with this product. ❤️
