I was able to try the ARM & HAMMER™ Essentials Whiten + Activated Charcoal Fluoride-Free Toothpaste in exchange for my honest review #gotitfree.
I really like baking soda in my toothpaste, the more the merrier. I think this one was a little "toned down" in comparison to what I'm used to, but that might actually work better for others that don't normally like the taste. I found it made my teeth feel very clean and smooth even into the next day. I liked the flavour and for some reason am attracted to charcoal products (emo soul + black = happy). The natural ingredients is always a plus, I've no idea what's in regular toothpastes, but I assume it can't be good. I can't speak the whitening effects as I only had a few days to try it and didn't personally notice a difference. Overall I would probably buy this product again.

I was able to try the ARM & HAMMER™ Essentials Whiten & Strengthen Fluoride Toothpaste in exchange for my honest review #gotitfree.
I normally use a baking soda toothpaste so I'm used to the gritty texture some people don't like. If you're one of those people you may actually like this because it wasn't as "strong" or gritty. I kind of missed that with this one, it was very subtle but still felt like it was cleaning very well. My teeth were very smooth afterwards and even after waking up. I don't know that I could tell the difference in colour of my teeth, I only had a few days to try it, the taste was also not my favourite. I do like that it has natural ingredients, god knows what's in others. All in all I'll be happy to use up the sample but I'm not sure I would buy this particular flavour in the future.

Tried Mott's Clamato Reserve recently and quite enjoyed the little jalapeño kick you get at the end of it. Definitely prefer it over the original, but I do like mine really spicy so I added all the fixin's and tried it again and I definitely give it 2 thumbs up. Very bar like quality, and NO pickle juice (which I hate). Have already had 3 glasses and can probably get 2 more easy. Would love to see this in the larger versions. -

I was able to try Becel Salted Plant-based Bricks over the weekend during movie night. We chose to use it on our popcorn vs. the normal butter we use. I was pleasantly surprised with the taste. You can tell it's not butter but it's certainly closer than a lot of others and I didn't mind the difference. The texture is also pretty on point, however it is softer even straight out of the fridge. I gave it lower marks in quality as my mother woke up with terrible gut rot/ache and this was the only thing out of the ordinary she ate that day, but I personally liked it and would recommend to friends who can't have dairy products. #gotitfree -

I love the subtle scent of Neutrogena® Bright Boost Gel Cream. It really worked well in conjunction with the other products in the line to soften and brighten my skin in just one week. I did have some flaky skin issues in the first 3 days, but I think it just proved how crappy my skin was before. This went after a week and looks so much better now. You also really don't need much of this to cover your face, so I can see it lasting quite a long time. I was able to try this product free as part of the ChickAdvisor product review club. -

To be honest, I'm not really sure what the Neutrogena® Bright Boost Illuminating Face Serum is supposed to do. It felt like it was moisturizing my face – yet there was a moisturizer in the line as well and it contained the same sparkly base as the other stuff. That being said, when I used all the products in the line combined I did notice my face was noticeably smoother and brighter after just one week, so obviously this plays it's part in the process. The product itself goes a long way, just 4 drops is all I needed. I was able to try this product free as part of the ChickAdvisor product review club. -

Neutrogena® Bright Boost Resurfacing Micro Polish delivers the feeling of scrubbing that I like combined with cleansing power and left a nice little tingle afterwards. I really like the subtle scent from the Bright Boost line of products. In the first couple days I noticed some flaky white skin coming off my face during the day, but I think it was just doing it's job. After a week this went away my face was noticeably brighter and softer. I was able to try this product free as part of the ChickAdvisor product review club. -

I've only ever used sunscreen on my face (which I absolutely hate) - so was skeptical about this product. After using it however, I'll never go back to sunscreen again. This didn't feel oily at all and I love the subtle scent of the Neutrogena® Bright Boost Face Moisturizer. The price point is a little high for a 30ML bottle in my opinion however. Using it in conjunction with the other products in this line, my face was definitely noticeably brighter and softer after just one week.

I was able to try Motrin Super Strength Liquid Gels this week (#gotitfree) - unfortunately I did not experience period cramps during this time period so I can't comment on effectiveness there, HOWEVER I use anti-inflammatories a lot for sports so I'm going to comment on this use case.
In comparison to other brands I've used this held up quite nicely - I have some shoulder issues currently so I take meds before all day sports events to prevent inflammation and further damage. Trying out Motrin Super Strength I was quite pleased, the pain (or lack of) that came through was comparable to other products. However I would probably use it for shorter sports events in the future as I have found other brands to be longer lasting (this is the reason for 3 stars on effectiveness).
All that being said I look forward to using it again for the regular season as it worked fairly well.
