I received #GoodAndSimple Cranberry Orange +Flex bars from #ChickAdvisor and I #gotitfree. I love baked goods, and most of the time I bake my own.
These were tasty, not too sweet, did not have artificial flavour, instead I was able to taste the orange and the distinct cranberry taste in the chewy middle. I definitely did not like the flex seeds on the top. I did like that they were individually wrapped - easy to just throw it in your bag, this also keeps it moist.
According to the nutritional facts they are a bit on the high cal side. I'm not sure on their health value but for such a small bar they are way too high in calorie.
Also I think they are also a bit over priced. They are not so extreme as to warrant the price. Sure they are better then some other store bought that stay on the shelves for months but only barely and they do not taste oh so fresh.
I would still recommend it to friends, after all they are a better choice then a lot of other possibilities in the store.

I received #GoodAndSimple Banana Bran muffins from #ChickAdvisor and I #gotitfree. I love muffins, and most of the time I bake my own, occasionally get it from the coffee shop or from the grocery store.
These were tasty, not too sweet, did not have artificial flavour, instead I was able to taste the banana and it did taste like banana bread, but I did not like how crumbly it was, just the tad bit on the dry side (as in the crumbs were just all over the place instead of nice fluffy crumbs that break off but not too much like when the muffins are super moist.) I loved it that they were individually wrapped. Easy to just throw into your bag and be on the go. Unfortunately this also means that the muffins become this "soaked" or "sweaty" consistency; this happens when hot or warm baked good is put into plastic wrap. I wouldn't say this is bad but it takes away from the "freshness". On the other hand my boyfriend and my brother really liked this muffin, said they prefer this.
I was quiet taken back from the price range, it is a bit on the high. The muffins in my eyes were not as good to warrant the price but yes I would recommend it to friends to try it.

NIVEA Q10 Anti-Age Hand Cream

I was pleasantly surprised because it was the scent so well known of the brand and it worked better then expected. Nivea products never worked for me, they just sat on the top of my skin not deep penetrating but this cream even at the first try just soaked right into my skin in seconds! My skin is extremely dehydrated and you can see sometimes "wrinkling" of the skin and chapping on the back of my hands. This product plumped my skin, made it so soft as velvet. I had no reaction to it though my skin is ultra sensitive. This is the reason Nivea is a cult classic! Always delivering what it promises! -

I received my La Roche-Posey Micellar Water Ultra for Reactive Skin @larocheposayca (#ultramicellar #micellarultra) from @ChickAdvisor and I #gotitfree. I really really wanted to find faults in this (alright I did find a few things.) I put on heavy foundation, waterproof mascara, glitter, long lasting matte liquid metallic lipstick, black eyeliner in waterline with glitter, blush tint, glitter ultra violet waterproof eyeliner. This miracle took it all off and there was no tugging, no itchiness. There is no residue I feel like washing off. It feels exactly like I cleaned my face with water.
Negatives - My skin feels a bit tight after using it but compared to the ringer I put my skin through this is nothing. My skin is red (though it says anti-redness) but again I will put this down to doing a good job with testing this product (I mean even after 2 hours my skin is still red, flushed) it is nothing compared to what other cleansers do to my face. And one last thing I will add - when I whipped at my waterline (ok, my fault!) I thought I'm going to pee my pants from the sting, BUT! The sting did not last long just 1-2 seconds. Again I will put this down to most likely the make-up itself getting into my eyes and not the product itself.
I started out a bit byassed - after all I love micellar waters. I have to say I still love them and you can't even compare it to any other kind of cleanser.

Love every one of them. Versatile sense and they are long lasting. Love the creamy feel they leave. The leather is fluffy and foamy. Only need to use a small amount on a puff. It does feel like it leaves something behind but I would say that is the moisturizer, but the skin does feel extra clean.
Would recommend it for sensitive skin types as well.

The Body Shop Bath Lily
Never knew this is what they called it. The puff is great, it is soft and fluffy yet it exfoliates. You need less soap or product, this makes it effective. Ever since I first bought one I keep going back for more.

As all dove products this as well is fantastic on your skin.
It has a great smell, light and sweet but has a staying power. I don't need additional moisturizer after shower only in the winter. The leather for the soap is nice and fluffy and creamy, almost like a little goes a long way yet you want to just use more because it feels so good on your skin. As an defoliant it falls short. The micro beads are not doing anything for your skin really.
I would still recommended, even sensitive skin types will like it.

All time great classic! Even though I don't use it for wrinkles and fine lines but it is a staple in the house for pretty much anything. Sore paws, chapped lips, craft project, creaky door, zipper getting stuck, etc - it just has so many versatile uses I can't even list it. -
