As someone who likes to boost my diet with extra protein, I was definitely excited to be a part of this ChickAdvisor campaign with Premier Protein. I am sometimes skeptical of ready to drink protein shakes, especially when they are low in sugar and high in protein(30g) because they can have a very chalky, fake taste and after taste, but not this one at all. It actually tasted like a creamy chocolate milk. The price of them is a little high when you only receive 4, however I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking to add extra protein to their day and I do intend to buy this product again. -

I was very excited to receive this as part of a ChickAdvisor campaign and surprised to find I enjoyed this product. I was surprised because I find a lot of ready to drink protein drink, especially those with low sugar,taste chalky and fake. This product is the opposite. The caramel flavor has a nice, smooth texture and does not taste fake at all. It has 30 grams of protein which is fantastic, especially on the go. My only negative to this product would be the retail cost to how many you receive ratio. But I would definitely recommend this product, even those skeptical of trying protein products. -

I received the Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair retinol oil for free as part of a campaign and I was very happy with my results. It's an oil, so I was a bit worried about it feeling and looking really oily but it was neither-- it went on silky smooth, had a fantastic scent and had my skin looking refreshed and bright. I used this product for over a week and I would definitely say that it did make my skin feel/look younger, it felt softer and didn't dry my face out. As with the prep cleanser, it does have a fantastic scent, but if you're sensitive to scents, it may not be the best option for you. Otherwise, I would definitely recommend this product and I myself would purchase it again. -

I was lucky enough to be part of the campaign for Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair, and the prep cleanser was one of the products I received for free. I really liked this product. I'll say I find the retail price a little high, but it seems to fall in line with similar products. It exfoliates your face and I loved the way the exfoliation beads felt. There is a fantastic scent, but if your skin is sensitive to scented products, this may not be ideal. My skin felt very clean and soft after using it. I would definitely recommend this product. -

I’m going to start with the only downside. I realize this is a prestigious line, but an average consumer would probably try to find lower priced alternatives. Having said that, this product was great and I was lucky to be able to get it for free 👍 My hair does feel noticeably thicker and healthier. It has a pleasant smell and my hair feels stronger. -
Vichy Dercos Densi-Solutions Hair Mass Recreating Concentrate

I like using products that are easy to use, without having to do a whole lot— you don’t have to rinse this out, you can use it daily, and you basically massage it onto your scalp. It has a pleasant smell and it’s not sticky, which is a bonus. As for the effect of thickening my hair, I did use it everyday for nearly 2 weeks and I do feel that my hair is thicker and stronger. The only thing that may hold me back from purchasing this often would be the retail price, which varies, but is certainly not cheap. It was effective though and felt great in my hair. -

I was lucky to be apart of the Canada Dry Club Soda Pomegranate Cherry campaign. I enjoy club soda, so to try a flavored one was really fun, especially with the cute straws they sent along with the coupons. I’m not sure if I would purchase it again however, because I do find the retail value of around $6.50 a little pricey for club soda. I enjoyed the taste, my only critique in that regard is that I wish it was slightly sweeter. Other than that, you really do get the Pom cherry taste, with a crisp and refreshing club soda. -

#gotitfree
I was able to be a part of the Tresemme compressed micro mist and I received Texture, Spray Hold level 1. I'm not sure I'm overly impressed with it. Looking up retail values, I find that there are others I've used that might work better for a lower price. It does have a pleasant scent and doesn't make my hair crunchy or sticky like some do, however, I didn't feel any added texture or that it held all that well. I know the hold level is 1 so it's not supposed to be extra holding per se, but I tried it on my own hair and my husbands hair and in both cases it ended up falling flat. The bottle does have a sleek look to it and it is compressed so it uses 50% less gas, but honestly, I'm looking for those features less and more the fact that it's supposed to have some hold and add some texture. This product unfortunately was not for me.

#gotitfree I was so happy to be a part of the Aveeno campaign for the Ultra-calming collection. This review is for my ultra-calming moisturizer. I paired this moisturizer with the gel cleanser and what a difference. I have sensitive skin and this worked great, without drying it out, causing redness or irritating it. My skin feels more radiant, even in skin tone, less blotchy and it's an added bonus that it has SPF 30 in it. The only 2 downsides I found was a) I did find it had a touch of an unpleasant scent, like rubber, even though it's supposed to be scent free. My husband said he didn't smell anything, so maybe it was just me and b) it's slightly pricey in my opinion, but as I said it does work great. So, other than that, and those are minor to me, I would certainly recommend this product to someone with sensitive skin looking for a great moisturizer. -

I was lucky enough to be a part of the Aveeno campaign to try the Ultra-calming hydrating gel cleanser. I'll start with my only negative- I found it difficult to squeeze out. Having said that, and that being minor, my skin felt great using this product. I do have sensitive skin and am always happy to try new products made for sensitive skin. This did not irritate my skin or dry it out. It had a really good lather and I did pair it with my Aveeno ultra-calming daily lotion as well for skin that looks healthy, more even toned and less blotchy. #gotitfree -
