I love this cream. It is a unique product that contains a 100% chia seeds instead of water. Chia seeds can absorb an incredible amount of water and it acts as a perfect delivery system to bring moisture to your skin. This is a lightly scented cream that does not overpower your sense. It leaves my face feeling very soft and smooth. It is a moisturizer that is light enough for daytime use but hydrating enough to last the whole night. For $28 a tub, this cream is a great deal and it last a long time. -

I am a huge fan of mineral powder. I love them and I've tried many different brands. I was excited to be chosen to participate in the product review for the GOSH Mineral Powder.
I found the colour of this powder was too light for my skin colour, especially after a few months of summer sun. However, I combined this with my regular mineral powder to highlight certain areas of my face. It worked perfect. The powder felt smooth and silky as I applied it and it made my skin looked flawless. It worked just as well as my regular mineral powder, as I was able to compare both on my face at the same time. Most important of all, it didn't smell; it was completely unscented, ie. no perfume, no stinky chemical stench. This is a must for me when it comes to skin products.
I highly recommended this mineral powder. It is comparable to some of the high end, expensive powder on the market. So why spend more on powder when you can get a GOSH one for cheaper and it works just as well? :)

I have always been intimated by a cream blush and therefore I have never used one. But I'm very glad I had the opportunity to try this Giant Blush as part of the product review club.
I love how easy it was to control the intensity of the colour using this. I usually apply a light layer on my cheek and rub to blend the colour. It was easy and I have yet to make a mistake!! I can leave it in my purse on the days I need touch up for an evening outing. It's very convenient not have to carry a blush brush in my purse! :) The colour complimented my skin tone and the cream felt soft and smooth.

I like this mascara a lot. The #1 brush is small and dainty, made it super easy to apply mascara on the lower lashes. The #2 brush worked really well, made my lashes looks full and long. I especially love this is a 2-in-1 product and that I don't have to rummage through my drawer to find 2 different mascaras to have nice eyes.
I only have 1 complaint: I've been using this for almost 2 weeks. I am noticing more and more that the mascara in the #2 brush is starting to clump. It was clumping on the brush and it was clumping on my lashes. I had to use a lash comb this morning to brush out the clumps. This is something I don't want to do every morning as I'm rushing to get to work.

I received this lip lacquer as part of the product review club.
This isn't a colour I will choose for myself. It was very bright and with the glossiness, I found it was too vibrant for everyday wear. However, I found a workaround: I apply the lip lacquer, blot off the gloss so the colour was acting more like a lip tint, then I applied a regular moisterizer or a light color lipstick on top. It was perfect!! The "tinting" of the lips made my lips look healthy and pink for hours, whereas my normal lipsticks usually only last for about 2 hours before I have to reapply. What I liked the most about this technique is that I can apply any clear lipbalm on top and it'd still look great. So my lips can feel soft, colored and moisterized all day long.
I like the size and the cute little wand. It fits perfectly in my purse but not too small that it'd get lost in my bag. I think I'll definitely try another colour in the future.

I received this full size Arm & Hammer Truly Radiant Toothpaste from the Product Review Club. My husband and I tried this toothpaste for 2 weeks before writing this review.
This toothpaste works well. My teeth feels clean after every brushing. I like the mild minty flavour that leaves my mouth feeling fresh without the burning sensation when the mint is too strong. Also, this toothpaste does not leave behind gritty residue like most toothpaste I've used in the past.
I am not a fan of the salty taste of this toothpaste and even after 2 weeks, I have not gotten used to it. Also, I have not noticed my teeth looking any whiter than before using this toothpaste but they haven't gotten worse.
Overall, I'd say this is a nice toothpaste. It is inexpensive and a little bit goes along way.

I received this product to review as part of the Chickadvisor Product Review Club.
I love this moisturizer. I normally will not buy "unscented" products because I find "unscented" product has a strong chemical smell, probably because fragrances are not added to mask the original scent of the product. For me, I find the chemical "unscented" smell unbearable. However, this CeraVe lotion is truly unscented. There is no fragrance and there is no smell at all. It's really great.
A little bit of this lotiong goes a long way. A thin layer on the face and neck after cleansing leaves my skin feeling soft and moisturized for the rest of the night. It doesn't feel greasy or oily and the lotion is absorbed very quickly. I prefer this Night lotion over the the Day lotion (with SPF) because I actually find this Night version lighter on my skin and more breathable.
I used this for 1 week in Canada at the end of April where temperature hovered between 5-15C. This was really nice for this time of the year, not too heavy for the skin but still keeps my skin from drying out. I'd love to try this in the winter and see if it can withstand the harsh Canadian winter. I suspect it will.
I also used this lotion for 1 week in Hong Kong at the beginning of May, where the temperature is between 22-27C with humidity between 50-90%. This cream is too heavy for humid weather (humidity above 70%); my skin cannot absorb the lotion quick enough and my skin feels a little bit sticky. For this reason, I do not recommend this cream for hot humid summer weather. But it is also important to note that while my skin felt stickier than I like, my skin remains clear, free of acne. My skin is sensitive to heavy lotion that clogs my pores and I break out easily. I am truly impressed with this product!!
I do highly recommend this cream. This is one of my favourite lotion. I like this even more than the Day lotion. :)

The best thing about this lotion is truly unscented. I often find "unscented" products often have a weird chemical smell; for this reason, I never buy unscented products. However, I'd definitely recommend this unscented product because it has no smell at all! A little bit of this lotion goes a long way. This has SPF 30 which makes it a great daytime lotion, especially since a lot of foundation only has SPF15.
I tried this product in two very different climate. First, I used it during spring time in Ottawa when temperature still hovered between 0-15C. The air is still pretty dry. I felt the lotion felt thick and a smooth thin layer provided protection against the harsh winter weather.
I also tried this product in Hong Kong in spring, where temperature was between 22-27C and high humidity. I found this lotion to be too thick and it didn't seem like my skin can breath very well. I'd prefer something lighter for the summer months.
Overall, I'd recommend this lotion but only for the winter. This is a good product for only $14.99.

I received the Special K Popcorn Chips in Butter flavour and Sweet & Salty flavour as part of the product review club.
These popcorn chips are light like popcorn and they taste like popcorn. They make great snacks for both kids and adults. My kids loved them because they are eating "chips" and I didn't feel guilty giving it to them because they are healthier than regular chips. My two boxes of popcorn chips were gone in no time!!
Butter flavour - If you are looking for the deliciously sinner taste of real butter popcorn, don't bother with these chips. These are not going to give you the "Wow Butter" factor. However, they do taste a lot like microwave popcorn; so if you like microwave popcorn, then these are the chips for you. They are not too salty and have just a nice crunch to them that you can't find in regular popcorn.
Sweet & Salty - I LOVE sweet & salty popcorn. And I have to say, I was a little disappointed in this flavour. I can taste the sweet & salty-ness in them but they definitely don't have the Wow factor I expected. However, because they are on the bland side, they make great snacks for the kiddies (whereas my regular sweet & salty popcorn is definitely a treat for them).
Both popcorn chip flavours are good but I definitely prefer the butter one over the sweet and salty.

I received this product for review as part of the Product Review Club. This is the second time I am reviewing a Poise Product.
This product is wonderful. I recently had a baby and bladder leakage is an issue. I found these pads to be very comfortable to wear and they don't feel bulky at all. My skin feels dry all day long, unlike using regular menstrual pads. It deodorizes, leaving me feel fresher and cleaner.
I highly recommend Poise products. I think they are worth every penny.
