#GOTITFREE Love the candy cane scent. Sat well under lipstick and provided moisture for a few hours unless i ate. Oackaging is cute and it fits into my scrub oockets unobtrusively.

La Roche-Posay Micellar water removes base makeup very well! I received this item for free to review. All opinions are my own. I wear a fair amount of makeup daily, generally eye makeup with waterproof liner, mascara, and shadow, blush, and lipstick. I occasionally also wear foundation. I have tested this remover with a partial and full face remover. It does an excellent job at removing my base makeup, but I found that I had to let it 'soak' onto my eyes for a minute before wiping away in order to get all of my mascara and eyeliner off. The price is good for the size, and my skin did not feel tight or dried out after use. I did follow up with my usual skincare routine. #gotitfree -

The thermal rich cream was too heavy for summer weather here, and I am quite dry! Although my skin felt moisturized, I felt like it took a look time and a lot of rubbing for the cream to absorb. That being said, once it was absorbed my skin felt well hydrated for over 12 hrs. I found the scent a bit strong (I don't mind scented products ,but this wasn't to my taste) but it faded fairly quickly after application. I might try this again in the winter, when my dry skin is more like a desert!

I am always skeptical about facial mists and how moisturizing they are, but I found that the Vichy Thermal Spa Water provided a very good bridge between my immediate post-shower-skin and when I applied moisturizer! On hot nights the spray was especially soothing. I do wish the container let me see how much product was left, and that there was a smaller size for travel on the go. The mist applied evenly with one spray.

This by far was my favourite product I was sent to try out! The cleanser had a pleasant, fresh scent, and the foaming dispenser worked great with my Foreo, which I find has difficulty generating suds on its own! My skin felt so smooth and soft directly after use, and I found no traces of makeup after cleansing my face. My skin did not feel tight or dry at all, and my moisturizer applied very easily after. I liked the clear packaging as I could see exactly how much product I was using - barely saw this dip a centimeter after a month of use! I would definitely re-purchase.

This is actually a fairly heavy cream despite the 'light' name and I think I'd have found better use for it in the winter - although Calgary is fairly dry, this felt too heavy to wear on hot days so I tended to wear it at night. It does moisturize well, and I found my skin remained soft and bouncy to the touch for well over 12 hours. My skin is dry and I did not notice any increased oil production with the use of this moisturizer. The light scent was pleasant, and wore off fairly quickly. I received this product for free to test, and all opinions on my own. -

I loved these! THey are definitely going to be a work staple for the shifts where I am too busy to eat an actual meal (which working in a hospital, happens a lot). I usually replace my breakfast with them (which if I get one is typically around 10AM) and I didn't find myself hungry until almost 3PM - this was a godsend for a busy day on the nursing floor! The bars were filling, and were not too sugar-y, and the chocolate taste was authentic - I didnt feel like I was just eating empty calories. They are a bit pricy at 12$/5 pieces, but if they went on sale I'd stock up! I"m definitely going to look at other flavours!

I received this as part of the Product Review club. Essentially the Super Energex ampoules are a liquid multivitamin - the same ones I'm pretty sure I have given to patients who are unable to take pills without being crushed in hospital. The smell and colour are EXACTLY the same. This turned me off wanting to try them as the smell of liquid multivitamins makes me want to gag, but I persevered. I tried first drinking these with plain water - there is kind of a musty aftertaste so I had to drink an extra glass of water immediately after. I couldn't detect an orange flavour. I then tried mixing it with juice (orange) but the green colour turns the juice a very unappetizing brown that I drank but could not get over, so I stuck to drinking this with water.
**DON'T TAKE THIS ON AN EMPTY STOMACH!** I drank one ampoule after sleeping post-night shift and immediately had very bad gas and cramps despite having only had water in the previous 12 hours. So definitely take this with some food. Otherwise, considering the bad aftertaste, I'd stick to a regular multivitamin pill, but if you have trouble with large pills, these would be a good alternative.
