I received this product as part of the review club. I prefer the taste of this bar to the caramel one. It had the right amount of sweetness, saltiness and crunch. It is the perfect snack, filling you up in a good way. I would definitely recommend this bar for anyone looking for a boost of protein, snack or part of a pre-post workout meal. -

I received this product as part of the review club. I eat a lot a of protein bars, keeping them on hand for a pre-run snack or days when lunch just isn't happening. Sometimes the flavours don't match the product, but not in this case. I found the caramel was more 'real' tasting than other products, and I appreciated the amount of nuts and lack of fillers. Definitely getting more of these! -

I bought this as part of a travel sized 3 pack. I tend to avoid lip balms as I find that my lips actually get dryer when I use them. My lips are very dry during the winter. This balm goes on the dry side though my lips feel moist after. I don't use much of it (1-2 times a day) and yet my lips appear moisturized and feel great. Using it with the other 2 pieces just makes things better. -

I bought this as part of a travel sized 3 pack of Bite products. I have very dry lips during the winter and find the more I use a lip product, the dryer I get. This scrub works amazingly! I work off what dry skin I have and it feels moist and supple for hours after. Using it with the other two products just enhances it. I love it! -

I received this product as part of the review club. I used it on half of my face and my normal moisturizer on the other half for comparison. I found that the Vichy went on much smoother, very silky and absorbed quickly. There was not greasy residue or after effect. My skin felt refreshed from the point of going on and compared to my normal brand, I like how it went on much easier and didn't feel like I had put something on my face afterwards. During the day, I really did not notice a difference from my normal mositurizer. Maybe a little less tight as the day went on. I do find that I am red during the day, but I can't say that this was reduced by using this product. Maybe from continued use, but not from a brief period. That being said, I enjoyed the product and would use it again, though I really do prefer a mositurizer with an SPF rating. -

I bought this product on a Black Friday sale from the Abnormal Beauty company, but even full price, I would say buy this. A thick, really fragrance free cleaning balm, you only use it every other day, and I immediately saw results. My skin was much less oily, pores were diminished and it lasted the full day. I also noticed that, as it is winter, my skin was less dry. As I don't wear much makeup, I can only attest to how clean my skin is after a workout. I use it after a run, when I can feel the salt and road grime on me. After everything is soft, never tight feeling and clean.

I have hereditary dark circles/bags under my eyes. It doesn't matter how much sleep I get, water I drink, I still see them. So when Deciem opened up in Toronto and I found their caffeine under eye serum, I jumped on it. You are to use it twice a day, massaging into the undereye. I saw results very quickly! I am actually now only using it once a day. I find that the skin is lighter more consistently, and I look refreshed. I can't talk to puffiness, as I don't experience it. I love this product and will continue to buy it in the future. -

I wear a lot of black and any product I used always left marks. So when Dove (a go to brand) advertised that no marks would be left on black or white clothes, I had to try it. And about 95%, it works! I have found that on my workout wear, I still have white marks on dark clothing. And if I put the shirt of too soon after application, I can still get white marks.
That being said, it is effective and I would definitely still use it, as there are much less marks that other products.

I received this product as part of the review club. I am not a fan of vanilla, I find that it is usually overly sweet and nothing close to an actual vanilla bean. This shake was on the better side of vanilla flavoured products, I liked that it wasn't too sweet, and like the chocolate shake, the consistency was good. I did find that I needed to have the shake with a banana or toast as the calories are low for it to just be a meal. I probably wouldn't get this flavour again only because I am not a big fan of vanilla. -

I received this product as part of the review club. I use protein powder almost daily in my own smoothies so I was really curious of the taste and consistency of a premade shake. I found that the chocolate flavour wasn't chalky or overly chemically tasting and very close to my normal powder. The consistency of the shake was also good, not too thick or thin. I did have 1 cold and 1 at room temperature and felt cold was better. -
