I love trying different body washes, and this is definitely one of my favourites. The scent is absolutely amazing and really wakes you up in the morning. It's lathers into a rich foam and leaves your skin smooth to the touch. It also lathes with very little product which is great. The scent is not overwhelming, and during the day it's not really detectable (which I consider a good thing). Price is also pretty decent for such a large bottle size.
Overall a great product, and I do recommend it.

I received this product for free as part of the ChickAdvisor product review club. I was pretty excited to try it out because I always have low energy, even after a full night's sleep. The taste of this product in water was pretty gross, but it was masked if you mixed it with orange juice. But that just increases your sugar intake too then. Overall I didn't feel much difference in my energy levels after a month's use.
I was also a little sketched out by the fact that you can't use this product for an extended period of time. Why is that? I don't know, it doesn't say. That makes me a little worried about what's in it. It also recommends you don't take if you have an infection, but is vague on what that means.
Overall, it was a convenient product to take in the morning, but it didn't give me the results I would hope for.

I received this product from Chick Advisor through the product review club.
What I immediately liked about this product is the taste. It was smooth and had a mildly sweet taste of chocolate, and it wasn't chalky (as I have experienced with other similar products). It wasn't too sweet, and the product was moist enough to hold together without producing large amounts of crumbs while eating it. It was decently filling at first, but about half and hour later I was still quite hungry.
Overall I'd say it's a pretty good meal replacement bar (especially in comparison to some I've had in the past). I typically use these more as snacks to fill in the gaps between meals than as a meal as it really isn't that filling.

I received this product from Chick Advisor, and wasn't sure what to expect. The product itself looks and feel like regular water. I used it a couple times the first first days instead of washing my face at night. It seemed to work to clean. However, I was especially impressed when I tried to remove makeup with it. I was hesitant but it worked very well. It was gentle on my skin and took off the makeup with ease. Overall I would recommend this product. It's great for a simple refreshing of the skin, especially after a workout. -

I received this from advisorchick, and was super excited to try it. Unfortunately I didn't like the gel texture at all, and after using it for about a week my skin start to get all dry and flaky. It had a nice cooling effect, but it made my face feel wet, and once it dried I felt like my skin dried with it. Did not enjoy, and would not recommend. -
Brookside Dark Chocolate Fruit & Nut Bars - Blueberry with Acai
This was my least favourite of the three Brookside dark chocolate fruit & nut bars. It left an almost sour, artificial taste in my mouth. Would not recommend.

Brookside Dark Chocolate Fruit & Nut Bars - Cherry with Pomegranate
A delightfully fruity taste, with high quality ingredients. Only improvement may be for the chocolate to have less of a waxy taste. However overall it was a filling and tasty snack. Would recommend.

Brookside Dark Chocolate Fruit & Nut Bars - Cranberry with Blackberry
Great quality and delicious taste. It was sweet with a slight tangy bite from the cranberries. Had great quality compared to other snack bars. Would recommend.

I received this product free as a bonus with the Vichy night gel-balm. I liked this product better than the night one, as it felt lighter on my skin and went on much smoother. After a week of use I could definitely feel my skin feeling softer and looking brighter. The product itself has a fade scent and is pink in colour with some shimmer in it. Once applied you don't notice the shimmer, but I imagine it's supposed to make your skin appear brighter from first use (didn't particularly notice this though).
Overall I'd likely recommend it, although I find it a bit pricey.

I received this product free and was pretty excited to try it. I've never used a night gel before so I don't have much to compare it to, but I found it to be a pretty good product. It went on smooth initially and didn't have an overly powerful scent (although I wouldn't say it smelt particularly good either). However after rubbing it in a bit it felt somewhat sticky and felt kind of tight on my skin but that feeling went away pretty quickly. As for it's effectiveness, I don't know exactly what its goal was and it didn't come in a box and the writing was in French. It made my skin feel smooth and looked refreshed when I woke up. However after a few consecutive nights of use I started to break out a bit so I gave my skin a break every second night and used acne cream instead and this resolved the problem.
Overall, I would probably recommend this product.
