Let me begin by first saying that when I opened this lip balm, I was impressed with the scent. Strawberry Sorbet, honestly, to me it smells like those strawberry wafers. I love the cuteness and small enough size of the lip balms themselves; great for small pockets, etc. Secondly, with all those moisturizing ingredients contained in this one, one would think you wouldn't need to apply that often; not the case. Yes, it did moisturize my lips, however, I found it needed to be applied quite frequently, as it seemed to wear off after only a couple of minutes. Thirdly, as for the price of this product, I would guess it's worth the money. After all, sometimes, we get what we pay for. Do I recommend this to others? Yes to the Eos brand, and quite frankly, I'll have to leave that up to the buyer. It sort of worked for me, so...

At first glance, I noticed that these bars were on the small side. I was hoping they would have been a little bit bigger. However, even though they're smaller than expected, they do provide enough for a great snack. To me, they tasted a bit like a Nutrigrain bar, which is a bonus. They're fresh, a little dense in texture, but the overall taste is really good. I like how they use real ingredients; the walnuts are fresh. I could only barely taste the maple syrup, however, upon opening one, I could smell it right away. Eat them as a snack? Yes, I see myself doing that. Breakfast on the go? Yes as well. I do recommend these to anyone looking to try something new and looking for a quick snack, etc. Overall, a really good product worth checking out. #gotitfree #LoveGoodandSimple @ChickAdvisor -
Good & Simple Fruit + Fibre Muffins
First off, I can honestly say that these muffins were pretty darn good. They sort of taste like bran muffins, except they have blueberries and cranberries in them (fresh) fruit used in them. This is totally okay with me, as fresh is always better!... +
First off, I can honestly say that these muffins were pretty darn good. They sort of taste like bran muffins, except they have blueberries and cranberries in them (fresh) fruit used in them. This is totally okay with me, as fresh is always better! They're not dry tasting either, they are moist enough as if they were just baked that day. At 280 calories per muffin, this is a reasonable amount, that is, if you're not watching/counting your calories. Can I see myself eating these as a snack, for breakfast, etc., yes, totally. Price wise, for only 4 muffins, it seems a little steep. Other than that, I'd most likely recommend these, and I would probably buy them in the future. I do also like that they are individually wrapped. #gotitfree #LoveGoodandSimple @ChickAdvisor -

I had decided to try the Lemon Poppy Seed Power Bar Reduced Sugar out at 5 am when I'm usually out delivering my newspapers. At this hour, I'm not yet fully awake, however, off I went, delivering papers and eating this powerbar. Well, to my surprise, within 10-20 minutes, I was more alert, my brain felt less foggy and my eyes seemed to be more "open.". Not only that, it staved off the hunger for a solid 8-9 hours. So, I can say it worked on those levels. With that being said, and without sounding too harsh, I really didn't care for the taste. If honesty is what you're looking for, well, let's just say it was gross. Different, yes, as I've never had a lemon flavoured energy/protein bar before, but the taste was awful. Sorry. It was also kind of dry tasting as well. Tasted weird to me. I have given this review 3 stars only because it did what it is supposed to do, but something has to be done about the flavour. Maybe tweak it a bit. So, it's hard to say if I'd recommend it. If you can tolerate the taste, great, if not, well... I'll leave this up to others to decide. #PowerBarReducedSugar #gotitfree

This protein bar, Creamy Chocolate Peanut Butter Power Bar Reduced Sugar, helped stave off my hunger for a solid 7 hours. It gave me some energy, but not as much as I was expecting. So yes, it did help a little. The taste overall was actually pretty good. I like how it contains 20 grams of protein and 5 grams of fibre; as I don't normally get enough of this on most days. It made me feel less "foggy" for the most part. Back to the taste, it has a taste that tasted more like a dessert, so I wouldn't mind eating these more often. I, myself, would buy these. I will give this review 4 stars because it has a great flavour, holds off the hunger and helps, for the most part, get that "foggy" feeling to diminish. Overall, a really great product worth looking in to.

I had mixed up one of these for breakfast one morning because I needed something quick, yet tasty and filling all at the same time. Wow, I was pleasantly surprised when I drank it! The vanilla flavour tasted just like a vanilla shake/ice cream, minus all that awful stuff included. With 18g of protein, it kept me full and not hungry for a solid 6 hours. Taste and texture was smooth and creamy, easy to drink and best made (in my opinion), with very cold milk. The individual packets make for easy transport, just as long as you're somewhere there's milk available. You could probably even make one the night before and put it in the fridge; just shake/stir again before drinking. Heck, I would even dare say you could drink this ANY time of the day, as it has a ton of vitamins and minerals that a lot of us are missing. I even felt a little more energized after drinking this. With not a lot of calories, this is also a bonus. Do I recommend this? Yes, yes and yes.
Overall, a very great tasting product that'll be sure to please your tastebuds. If you're looking for something different, or simply don't have time to make breakfast, try "Carnation Breakfast Essentials". It comes in Vanilla and Chocolate.

I tried the Earl Grey tea from Pure Leaf and I found it at first tasted like black tea. But a few seconds later, yep, there was that familiar taste known to be found in Earl Grey tea. It isn't too strong of a tea, it's smooth, and it's easy to prepare/make. The packaging is nice; easy to get a spoon in there to take out the tea as well. Instructions were very straight forward on how to prepare. A very good tea overall. It gets my two thumbs up in approval.

*I received this free in exchange for my feedback*
First off, when I opened this tea, a nice, inviting aroma of vanilla was really nice to smell. It had that vanilla ice cream smell to it.
Secondly, the instructions on how to prepare it were straight to the point; easy to follow and do.
Thirdly, when I made it, to be completely honest, after taking a few sips of it, I really couldn't taste the vanilla. Mind you, I DID enjoy the tea, it's just for some reason I couldn't taste any vanilla at all.
I like the packaging; like I said, easy to open, easy to get a spoon in there and take product out.
A really good tea, even though I smelled the vanilla more than I could taste it. I do recommend it though. The packaging has a nice simple, not overcrowded design as well.
This is worth a look, try for those looking to try something new/different. It could just be that my taste buds could've been off, who knows.

One use of this conditioner, and I think I can say I've had a better experience than with some other ones. After using it, I found it was easier to comb through my hair than others. The scent was great, consistency of product was about as thick as most conditioners, and it left my hair more healthy looking/feeling. As with most conditioners, I found that it does take a couple of rinses to fully rinse out, but in the end, it's worth it. Lightly scented, which I like. It did help my dry, damaged ends, even after one use. After using it again, I can say that it continued to do its job. My hair probably never looked/felt better after using this conditioner. I do recommend this to others to try if they're looking for something new to discover. Overall, a great product from Dove. #DoveCoconutHydration #gotitfree -

After 2-3 uses of this shampoo, I can honestly say that it has made a huge difference to my hair. Even after one use, I noticed it considerably helped my dry, damaged ends where I needed it the most. Love the scent of this shampoo as well. It isn't overbearing, it is very, very lightly scented, but you can still detect that sweet lime in it. Shampoo was very thick, but you needn't a lot to get a great lather. This is a bonus. The shampoo left my hair looking and feeling more healthy, less dry, lightly scented, and more manageable after just ONE use. I recommend this to others for sure. A great product. #DoveCoconutHydration #gotitfree -
