I received this product free to review as part of the GOSH Goddess review panel. I had never ever heard of GOSH cosmetics before trying my wonderful bag of goodies.I love how easy this was to apply. I just swept it over the lid of my eye and smudged it along the crease for an instant smoky eye. I got several compliments at work wearing all of my goodies and the eyeshadow really made my eyes pop. The only thing I did not like is that I have allergies and my eyes water so I am constantly wiping my eyes and I noticed that the sparkles were getting in my eye and irritating it further, so be careful if you do have allergies, but otherwise, it looked amazing and I was very pleased with the overall product. -

I received this product free to review as part of the GOSH Goddess review panel. I had never ever heard of GOSH cosmetics before trying my wonderful bag of goodies. The Prime 'n Set Powder can be used as a primer or to set your makeup once you've applied it. I used it both ways and I loved the smooth, finished look it gave my skin. My skin has a natural reddish tone to it and the powder softened and gave my skin a luminescent glow. The powder did not come with a brush or powder puff to apply it, which was the only negative thing about it. Definitely will purchase again in the future! -

I received this product free to review as part of the GOSH Goddess review panel. I had never ever heard of GOSH cosmetics before trying my wonderful bag of goodies. The mascara was amazing. It really made my eyes pop, it was easy to apply and didn't clump like other mascaras I have used in the past. And it was absolutely waterproof. I have allergies and my eyes tend to water a lot during the day. The mascara still looked as fresh at the end of the day as it did at the beginning. It really made my eyes stand out and made my lashes look longer and fuller than they normally are. Would definitely buy again! -

I received this product free to review as part of the GOSH Goddess review panel. I had never ever heard of GOSH cosmetics before trying my wonderful bag of goodies. The colour I received was not one I would usually wear. I tend to go toward more neutral shades as I don't like standing out. Applying the lip lacquer was easy, it comes with a standard gloss brush. I was impressed by how smooth it made my lips look. I've been using it for about a week and I have gotten tons of compliments about how nice it looks.
The thing I love most about the lip lacquer is that it stays on for hours. I had several drinks and it still looked freshly applied.
I'm not sure what the retail price is going to be, but I would definitely buy again in the future regardless. Definitely one of the best lip products I've ever used.

I received a gift card from Chick Advisor to review the new online ordering system from DQ. I was quite happy with the ordering process itself. It was very user friendly and there were a lot of options. However I was not at all happy with the cake I received. We ordered a log cake for a good friend's birthday as it was just going to be myself, my two year old son, my husband and said friend for dinner. There was no icing on the cake at all, which was disappointing to say the least as that is our favourite part. The cake looked sloppy, the writing was terrible and even though I had specifically asked for Luc they spelled Luke instead. I was very embarrassed to be serving it. The cake tasted good, it just looked horrible. I think there is a lot of staff turnover at the store we used and maybe that is why the quality wasn't very good. -

I received this product free to try from the review squad. Thanks a lot for that!
I marked the price at 3 stars because I hear this will be selling for over $60. I don't think I would have actually gone out and purchased this for myself at that price.
Pros: It works! I smoked cigarettes for ten years and my teeth were slightly stained because of this. Even though I have been smoke free for almost ten years, my teeth just weren't getting any whiter. I just didn't have the money to spend on a professional whitening. I was very pleasantly surprised by this product and the results.
Cons: Two hours is a long time to be wearing this.I didn't like the way it kind of foamed up in my mouth and I was so afraid to drink anything while they were on because I didn't want to swallow any of the solution on the strips.
I can't say that I will buy them again, but I do recommend them for anyone who doesn't mind the price. They do work wonders.

I have been using Always pads my entire life and I have to say that these are the most comfortable pads to date. I do find that with a very heavy flow, they have a hard time keeping up absorbency wise. While comfort is very important to me, I don't want to have to worry about any accidents, and I found I did tend to worry a lot more using these new pads then my old Always pads.
It is not the amount of absorbency which is the issue, it is the rate at which the blood is absorbed. If you have a regular flow, these will no doubt be perfect for you (and I am jealous!) but if you have a heavier flow like me, you might want to stick to the tried and true Always pads.

Okay, so I don't regularly use Tampons unless it is to go swimming, but I do tend to use liners a lot. (Especially when I was pregnant and had to pee every five minutes!) These liners are perfect for the day before your period starts and the day after it ends to catch any spotting that sometimes can occur. I love these liners in particular because they actually stay in place. I had previously been using a box of Kotex liners and more often than not they would not stay in place, thus defeating the purpose of them being there!
I will definitely be purchasing these in the future!

I actually got a free sample of this in my mailbox before I was selected to test it as for Chick Advisor and as I just had my period, I can honestly say I loved this product. I normally don't use Tampons as I always find it awkward to get them inserted properly without making a mess, but with the warmer weather upon us I didn't want to interrupt our weekly swimming routine with our one year old.
I was pleasantly surprised with how easy they were to insert and they felt very natural and after the first few minutes I forgot all about them. I didn't have any spotting occur while using them.
I would not buy these for myself every month, but I'd probably keep a box handy for the summer months. Again, that is just personal preference and not a reflection on the product at all.

I was excited when I got the opportunity to try out the Pantene Pro-V Aqua Light system. I have extremely long hair (past my hips) and it is a real pain to do anything with. I don't want to have to get up two hours early to have time to wash, dry, blow dry and style my hair, so most days I wash and condition and then try and brush out the tangles while it is still wet and french braid it so it isn't in the way at work.
After using the shampoo and conditioner, I spritzed a bit of this through my hair and it worked really well at getting the tangles out. My hair was left feeling much softer and had less frizz than it normally would after leaving it to air dry. I would definitely buy again!
