I was chosen to try this radiant loose powder for free. I really like the container, it felt sturdy and not cheap which is usually a good indication of the product thats inside. The dispensing area of the foundation was not very well thought out in my opinion. Upon opening it, the sticker caused the netting to explode powder EVERYWHERE! the contents level of powder are lower than the brush net making it difficult to get the perfect amount of powder on my brush. The net dips into the powder and pulls way too much powder to the surface and the narrow plastic sides are challenging to shake it off. I prefer the more simplistic plastic holes in my loose powder. I have chosen the colour w2 (ivory) and it was a bit yellowish orange and dark for my skin. I'm thinking maybe n2 would have been a better match for my skin. The coverage was pretty decent, not too light and not too thick. It covered my imperfections and did not feel cakey or chalky or like a mask. I'm undecided whether I would buy this loose powder foundation, as I still prefer my regular brand. Perhaps it's worth trying again in a colour that suits my skin better. -

I was chosen to try this brush for free. The packaging on the 11 mineral brush was very nice. It came in a nice tube that I will definitely keep so my makeup bag doesn't get covered in powder. The bristles are long and soft and feel very luxurious gliding over my face. The brush allows you to apply a thin or more covered layer depending on preference which is wonderful. The drawbacks of this brush for me are it wastes a lot of makeup. The bristles being long created a spring like motion and a lot of foundation ended up on my shirt, the counter top and pretty much everywhere else as well as my face. The brush didn't give even coverage around my eyes and the sides of my nose because of it's size and inability to get in the crevices. This brush would be better suited for pressed powder, highlighter and blush in my opinion. I tried it with my pressed blush and it was great. I was able to get a nice light layer and no wasted makeup on my clothes or counter top. I would definitely recommend this brush to friends. My favorite part about it is how nice it felt on my face. -

I was able to receive this primer free to try. When I first applied, I noticed it was like moisturizer. I didn't like the feel of it as I spread it on because it felt thick and harder to move around than the primers I have used in the past. I was immediately concerned that my makeup would feel heavy and look cakey after I applied it over the primer but I was so wrong! This primer outperformed any other primer I have used in the past. I had dry skin before using this primer and the makeup went on extremely smooth over top and no skin flakes showed at all. I'm so impressed by this primer! I will most definitely be adding this primer to my makeup routine and ditching my old primer. I love that the nude by nature primer has a fresh almost citrus scent as opposed to other primers that smell like vitamins. I will be recommending this to all my makeup loving friends! Thanks chick advisor for allowing me to try out this amazing primer! -

I was lucky enough to receive the Rubbermaid fresh works container for free. The fruit I chose to test was cherries. I always spend a small fortune on cherries every summer and they end up wilted, moldy and soft very quickly and it's such a waste of money. I put half the bag of cherries in the Rubbermaid fresh works container and left the remaining cherries in the bag they came in. Within two days I could already see a difference in the cherries in the container versus the ones in the bag. The ones in the container were perfect as the day I purchased them but the ones in the bag were starting to show signs of turning. I am definitely sold on this product! I will definitely be buying the largest size for my whole bag of cherries and many other fruits and veggies. I think this would make lunch prep very easy as I can pre cut up a bunch of apples and strawberries for my kids lunches then just pour them in a smaller container to put in their lunches for the week. If you are tired of your produce turning quicker than you can consume it, I highly recommend these Rubbermaid fresh works containers! -

I received this product for free as part of my chick advisor premium membership. I have always wanted to get my eyebrows microbladed but now that I found this product, I don't feel the need to do that anymore. I absolutely love this brow pencil! The gel pencil glides on so nicely and effortlessly allowing me to completely control how light or dark I make my brows. I am finally able to achieve the perfect brow I've been striving for because this penscil works so incredibly well. I need to purchase 50 of them! The clear gel pencil end blends the color in and holds the brows in place. It has a sharpener cap on one end and a brush on the other end which is so handy because you never have to search in the depths of your makeup bag to find these things in a pinch. The makeup lasts all day and doesn't smear or rub off during normal wear. Aside from being easy to put on, it is really quick and cut my eyebrow time in half. I have worn it one day and have already received so many compliments and have passed on the brand to many curious woman. I love it, I want nothing else for my brows every again. This is all I'll ever use! Highly recommend this pencil to any girl struggling with her brows! -

I was lucky enough to try this product free. The flavor I sampled was the peanut butter and cookies and it was delicious! I normally don't indulge in ice cream very often as it doesn't agree with my stomach but this dairy free version was yummy and no stomach ache after. Ben and Jerry's ice cream is premium and they kept in line with the non dairy treat. I highly recommend this to anyone who has problems with lactose. It's not an exact replica of ice cream but it is delicious and satisfied my sweet tooth for sure. -

I got to try it free and I quite liked it. My first impression of the product itself was good, it looked like high quality body wash. I love the scent and it lathers very well. I love that it doesn't leave my skin gritty or with a residue afterwards like some popular bodywashes. After using it for a week, I decided I liked it enough to buy it regularly but was concerned it might be a little out of my price range for body wash but was pleasantly surprised when I saw it advertised at Walmart and was very affordable. Overall this product looks and performs like a high quality body wash for a price that almost anyone can afford. -

I was lucky to be chosen to do the #oxicleanchallenge and the oxiclean maxforce foam laundry pretreater I #gotitfree
This product I was really excited to try as the oily stains on clothes are always a challenge. My family usually gets oily stains from chap stick going through the wash, electronic cigarette liquid, too many dryer sheets in the dryer and spaghetti or anything tomato sauce based. These stains I had yet to find a perfect solution for until now. I used the Oxiclean maxforce foam laundry pre-treater and it got out each and every single oily stain mentioned above out the first time! My old method was to just keep washing it over and over until it eventually sort of came out. The foam is really easy to use, much easier than the spray bottle stain removers where you have to aim and kind of tilt to fabric and slosh the liquid around to get it all over. The foam goes right on and stays on the spot I put it and then I just simply rub the cloth together, it is SO much easier and the best part is it gets ALL of the stain and leaves no remnants of where it used to be.
I will be adding the oxiclean maxforce foam laundry pre-treater into my regular product line up from now on. It's simple, easy to use and it works. I highly recommend to anyone who experiences hard to clean oily stains to try this product, you will not regret it!

I was lucky to be chosen to try this product free and I'm so happy I did! I have three kids from 6 months to 9 years old and that means we have a wide variety of stains we deal with on a daily basis including but not limited to blood, poop, food, grass and vomit! I did an experiment with this product by washing a pair of white socks that had turned grey on the bottoms from normal wear. I treated one of the socks with oxiclean colour should laundry stain remover and the other one I used my usual stain remover. To my surprise, one sock came out whiter and brighter than the other! The sock I had treated with oxiclean colour shield stain remover was actually clean, no more grey on the bottoms. Other than pilling (from wash wear) it looked like a brand new sock. A few days later, my baby had a blow out all over her light pink sleeper, I was actually excited. I used the oxiclean colour shield stain remover and all the poop stain was completely removed! Not one trace of it. The colour of the sleeper stayed the same colour pink and it was like new again.
I love this product. I will be switching to oxiclean colour shield laundry stain remover from now on. I don't have to treat, wash and wait and cross all crossable body parts that the stain came out the first time because now I KNOW it will. As a busy mom, this product saves me so much time and money. Once again I am so thankful for the opportunity to try this product for free and now I am a lifetime user of oxiclean colour shield laundry stain remover. My only tip is to make sure you use gloves if you plan on directly touching the garment saturated with the stain remover.

CND CREATIVE PLAY Nail Lacquer
I love this nail Polish. It goes on thick and glossy but dries quickly. It looks like gel instead of Polish and the color is rich and sparkly. If I could manage to paint in the lines it would look like I had my nails professionally done!
