I received a coupon from chick advisor for review purposes. I love iogo yogurt, so I was excited to try the proteine version. I tried the black cherry flavour and I absolutely love it and at $3.99 for a 4 pack it's comparable to other brands.
I don't know that the protein in it would help me stay full longer. But I eat breakfast around 8 and don't fret to lunch until 12-1230, but if you add fruit or something else it's perfect. Definitely perfect as a snack too.

I'm not usually a fan of more expensive products, but since this was being offered for free through the product review club I decided to sign up. I've never tried micellar water before but I've heard good things about it, and all those things are true. This removes my makeup so much easier than a normal make up remover liquid or wipe. It even works better than my make up eraser, which until trying this I thought was the best. It doesn't dry out my sensitive skin and I haven't had a reaction to it like I do with some products.
It removes even the most stubborn waterproof mascara, even full coverage foundation which I always have a hard time getting off.
I love this product and I would definitely recommend it and even purchase it in the future.

This product lives up to it's description of not irritating or drying out the skin. Normally I avoid scrubs like this because of that reason, but this one didn't irritate or dry out my skin. Although I'm not sure I noticed any results related to this, it's possible I'm just not noticing them yet. I did enjoy the product, although the price is quite high for the amount you get, I did receive the product free through the product review club. You do only use the product twice a week, so it could last quite a while.I can't see myself purchasing this product again because I likely wouldn't use it, but I would recommend it to others looking for this kind of product. -

Having sensitive skin, I'm always looking for a good cleanser that isn't too harsh on my face. I also get a lot of stress break outs on my neck and chest area.I used this every day or every other day and it helped reduce even the stress breakouts. I also haven't had a normal breakout since using it, which is impressive considering the heat lately. The other plus is that it smells great too, not like chemicals or a normal face wash. Although I received this item free through the product review club, it is a bit expensive for me. Normally I buy a large bottle of face wash for around the same price, but the quality is worth the price. All in all a great product. -

I normally don't use liquid eye makeup removers, but this one may have converted me. It is amazing. It has a pleasant scent, and it's not oily like other liquid makeup removers. If they made this in a wipe I would buy it 10/10 times. The bottle is very big, and will likely last me a very long time. I used it quite a few times since getting it and there's barely a difference in the level of liquid in the bottle. I put it under the test of my hardest to remove mascara, which rarely comes off with a wipe or a "waterproof" eye makeup remover. I did not have to scrub at my lashes to get it off, a couple soft wipes and the mascara was 100% gone. I also have very sensitive skin, and even some wipes irritate my eyes, this one did not. I don't normally use Vichy products, and I was very impressed. This would definitely be worth the $20 price tag, even though I received it for free though the Chick Advisor Product Review Club. -

I received this for free through the product review club, but I love the Softlips luxe lip moisturizer. It is my favourite of all the ones they sent out and I've used so much of it already. I can't wait to repurchase this, the price is comparable to other high quality lip balms and the quality is totally worth it. I'm not constantly reapplying it for my lips to feel dry again in an hour. its compact and about the same size as a lipstick, I wish this one was available in the cube (maybe it is) but I love it anyways. -

I received this product for free through ChickAdvisor Product Review club, but the price is great on it. It's relatively the same as the EOS lip balms I normally buy, also about the same size. I love the mint flavour, it's my favourite and it wasn't too minty that it makes your lips tingle. I find that when I use some other lip balms that I'm constantly reapplying and I run out quickly. This one really moisturizes and lasts a long time so I'm not reapplying all day. I work in a pretty dry environment so these are great when I'm working. -

I used this bar to replace my breakfast, I enjoyed the taste of the bar. Having eaten meal replacement and protein bars before sometimes the texture can almost be like sawdust and this one wasn't. It looked to be about the same size as most other meal replacement bars.
Didn't get hungry for 4 hours after eating it. Usually after breakfast I'm hungry again in about 3 hours, so it prolonged it by an hour for me. I would purchase these in the future.
I received these for free from the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club.

Ampoules are easy to break off and open. Does not smell like oranges, also does not smell appealing to me personally. It smells like a vitamin bottle.
When I added it to my water, it wasn't an appealing colour. The taste is almost like a chewable vitamin, not very orangey. Not being a fan of the smell or taste of vitamins, it was hard for me to drink this. i wasn't able to drink it mixed with water.
I tried again the next day mixing it with cranberry juice this time. I could almost not taste the same vitamin taste as yesterday with the cranberry juice and could barely smell it. Which made it a lot easier to drink. I didn't notice a large improvement in energy, but I wasn't as tired as I normally was when I got to work that day.
I did notice it made my mouth and lips very dry after drinking it, so I was constantly drinking water the rest of the day.
I can't comment on the price, as I received this for free through the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club.
I can see myself using this product in the future, as I do have a lot of it left, but I wouldn't be likely to purchase it, especially if I can't mix it with water and drink it.

I normally use wipes for makeup removal and usually only buy whatever is on sale, so I have tried a wide variety of makeup removing wipes. I really liked the Nivea ones, they didn't leave as much product on my face after using and I find some wipes tend to move my mascara and eyeliner around on my face when I'm trying to remove it, these wipes didn't do it as much as other ones which I liked. The scent was like most other Nivea product which I enjoyed. I sometimes find with wipes depending on the brand that they're coarse on my face, as I have sensitive skin, these ones were very soft and didn't irritate my face at all. I'll definitely be purchasing these again. -
