This was the best defense against the sun, I went for a visit in Texas and I am very fair skinned I almost laughed when my aunt bought SPF 100 thinking that was a bit much however I was so glad I wore this product as it didn't leave my skin oily nor did it cause breakouts just gave me great protection against the suns harmful rays. Almos every time I go out in the suni return with burnt shoulders and a burnt nose, not this time I came back to Canada the same as I left.
I will not use this as an everyday product as I do like a bit of colour to my ski however I will definately be lathering my kids with this and on really hot days myself as well.

Revlon Fire and Ice Perfume
I love this perfume, it's cheap but not cheap smelling! I started wearing this perfume in high school as it was affordable and smelt beautiful, now as an adult I still recommend the same perfume, it's not overpowering and it lasts a long time.

Loved the continuous spray however you don't realize how much you are using while spraying. The price was a but high but I used coupons to bring down the price. I sprayed all areas then let it sit before I returned to scrub and wash off which I don't think was a great idea even with the fan going there was some serious fumes and I had to take a few breaks. But this product does work well. -

This sinful treat is just that, absolutely delicious at only 120 cals per serving sounds great right? HOLD up a min! Yes I recommend this sweet treat however if you are weight conscious and just looking at the 120 calorie value please look further... +
This sinful treat is just that, absolutely delicious at only 120 cals per serving sounds great right? HOLD up a min! Yes I recommend this sweet treat however if you are weight conscious and just looking at the 120 calorie value please look further, this product is also high in sugar at 10g per serving and 20g of carbs, what does carbs break down to? SUGAR!
So taste wise I say endulge but not an every day treat, but let's be honest can you eat just one? I couldn't!
Not sure if they're available in Canada I just got home from Texas and tried them there.

Quaker Mini Delights Chocolatey Drizzle
These chocolate delights might be small but sure packed with big flavour! Whether you're watching your diet or not this treat doesn't seem like diet food. They are the perfect combination between chocolate and crunch!

Always is my brand of choice to make my lady time as comfortable as possible. Once I seen the infinity of course I had to try, I liked this pad it offered great absorbency. The only downfall to this pad and all pads for that matter are they don't stick we'll to my silky underwear and have a tendency to bunch. -

My husband left a lasting impression on me the first time we met, it wasn't just his smile, his good looks or his charm but a inviting smell. He has since tried a few other colognes however none are even remotely as wonderful as this one. I definately recommend this cologne to any male who wants to get a girls attention! -
Tigi bed head Colour combat dumb blonde
Bed head let me down with this one! I fell in love with the shampoo but then when it was time for the conditioner it was very heavy and left my hair with a gross buildup which left it feeling really gross.

This is a pretty general review, if there was a brand of protein listed I could give a more rounded review.
First off I'd like to say that whey protein is not created equal, there is a difference between whey protein and a whey protein isolate. The main difference is the purity of the protein and how much Lactose and Fat is left after filtering.
If you are looking to lose weight I recommend a protein isolate as it is generally lower in carbs, fat and calories and the downside is also taste. I trained for a fitness competition and enjoyed champion nutrition protein in chocolate and I also bought the banana and would mix the two together.
I currently consume BSN Syntha-6 as per mentioned above the isolate doesn't generally taste that good, however Syntha-6 is delicious I enjoy the chocolate flavour and I mix it with either water or soy milk. This taste just like a chocolate milkshake and it an easy and filling way to consume protein. I generallydrnk two shakes. Day one to recover after I train and another as my evening snack.
Syntha-6 is higher in calories at 200 calories per serving and higher in carbs at 14 carbs per serving.
I should be consuming an isolate as they range from 0 -2 carbs each and generally are about 120calories each. But I enjoy my shake while consuming the Bsn if I ever get serious about competing again I will make the switch.
Brands of whey isolate that I have tried
Champion nutrition - review: decent taste
ISo flex : not my favourite tasting one but great when mixed with milk yogurt berries and peanutbutter
Iso xp: this one in chocolate is ok tasting not the worst but does becoming sickening but gulp it downthis one offers 40g of protein per serving!!
Dymatize whey protein- this protein taste good going downbut leaves a nasty after taste
Nectar protein isolate- this is probably the best tasting proteins have tried as it taste like fruit juice.
Diet is the most important thing to fat loss however exercise plays an important role also!

It's hard to review crystal light as a whole. As crystal light comes in a huge assortment of flavours as well as different sweeteners. Crystal light sweetened with aspartame, my review is that it tastes great I love the taste of aspartame besides however there are a wide range of side effects caused by consumption of aspartame mine being headaches so I try to limit my consumption.
Crystal light also has some flavours sweetened with Splenda, the taste is still good but Splenda leaves a bit of an aftertaste. Although one of my favourite flavours is sweetened with aspartame Acai white peach papaya.
Crystal light isn't just great tasting to drink you can also mix it in plain yogurt for a low calorie treat
