My family really enjoyed this bread. It is soft and tasted very fresh. For the usual price of a loaf of this white bread, you get a nice sized loaf. It gives good value for your money.
I made grilled cheese sandwiches for my family with this bread and the sandwiches were gobbled up very quickly. Not one sandwich was left uneaten! The bread toasted nicely and had a pleasing crunch.
The bread has a sweet sort of flavour to me. As a family who eats whole grain and whole wheat bread, this white bread was a special treat for us. While we won't be switching to white bread as it is not as nutrient dense as whole grain bread, we would eat the Dempster's white bread for a special treat.
I received a free product coupon to purchase this bread for review purposes. #gotitfree

I use body wash on a daily basis so I have used many body wash brands over the years. I have a few criteria that I use to determine if a body wash is good. First it has to have a great scent. This body wash is lavender scented and while I'm not a huge fan of lavender scents, I found the scent to be subtle and not too over powering.
Second of all, I want my body washes to have a great lather. This body wash certainly lathers very well. I use a body pouf and a little bit goes a long way. This body wash feels so soft and silky on my body. It really felt so much silkier than other products I have used. My skin felt hydrated after using this body wash.
Overall, I really loved this body wash! Despite not being my favourite scent, the formula really is a winner in my books. I would love to try other body wash scents from this brand. I would definitely recommend this body wash to others to try.

This conditioner has the same lavender scent as the corresponding shampoo. I'm not a huge fan of lavender but I found this scent to be subtle and not too overpowering. The consistency of this product is great. It is not too thick that it won't spread and not too runny that it won't stick to the hair.
After shampooing my hair, I applied the conditioner and left it on my hair for 3-4 minutes. It rinsed cleanly from my hair and left no residue behind.
I did find that while using my pick comb on my wet hair that my hair had a few more tangles than usual. Maybe this conditioner is not as moisturizing as my usual products? However, after my hair dried, it felt soft and smooth. My frizzy hair was controlled and easy to manage. I also had the subtle scent of lavender in my hair throughout the day.
Overall, this is a product I would be pleased to use in my hair care routine and would recommend it to others to try.

In the past, I haven't always had the best experience with more natural based hair products so I wasn't sure what to expect from the Love Beauty and Planet shampoo. I was pleasantly surprised however! First off, the packaging is beautiful and makes my shower look like a spa. Next, even though I am not a fan of the scent of lavender, I found the scent to be subtle and not too overpowering.
The shampoo lathers really well and rinses easily from the hair. I really felt that my hair got a thorough clean with this product. The consistency of the shampoo is perfect: not too runny and not too thick. After my hair had dried and throughout the day, I could smell the subtle scent of lavender in my hair. So it has lasting scent power.
My hair tends to be frizzy and this shampoo calmed the frizzies and left my hair soft and manageable. Sometimes products that control frizz can weigh the hair down but not this product. My hair was felt light and airy.
Overall, I am impressed with this shampoo and would definitely recommend it to others. Since I'm not a huge fan of lavender, I would love to try other hair products from this brand in another scent.

La Roche-Posay Toleriane Sensitive Hydrating Care

I found this to be a great moisturizer for my skin. I tend to have oily skin which is very acne prone. I have to be careful not to use moisturizers that are too rich or creamy. This moisturizer has a light, silky texture. It is more of a lotion than a cream which is perfect for my skin type.
The moisturizer absorbed quickly into my skin and did not leave a greasy or sticky residue. My skin had a matte finish to it and was not shiny at all like some moisturizers. My skin felt soft and smooth after application.
This product kept my skin hydrated all day and did not aggravate my oily skin. I did notice that I had three small, red, almost pimple like spots appear on my skin while using this moisturizer. They never developed into anything more and disappeared in a day or so. I can't be sure it was from the moisturizer as they may have developed anyway. Nonetheless, I had no further issues with continued use.
Overall, this is a moisturizer I am happy to recommend and add to my skin care routine.

I love Dove body washes and the Dove deep moisture body wash is no exception. I love the fresh, clean scent to this product. It is a scent that both men or women could use.
One thing I look for in a body wash is how well it lathers. This body wash certainly meets my expectations and has a thick, rich lather. It is not sticky and rinses off easily.
I find that it moisturizes as well as any other Dove body wash. I don't find it any extra moisturizing but for my skin it works perfectly to keep it hydrated. I would say my skin is normal though and not dry.
Overall, this is a body wash I love and would recommend to others to try.

These ice cream cones make an excellent treat, especially on a hot summer day. I like that each box comes with two different flavours. Something to suit everyone in the family! The ice cream is of top quality and tastes great. I love that there are 8 cones in the box. Most frozen ice cream treats such as cones don't have that many in a box. So the Chapman's brand is an excellent value.
Most of all, I love that this is a Canadian brand. Overall, these cones are something my whole family enjoys as evidenced by how quickly the box empties! #FamilyRated

This product is a leave in spray that can be used on wet or dry hair. I use it after shampooing, conditioning and towel drying my hair. It needs to be shaken prior to use as it separates. Once shaken it has a milky consistency.
I found that this treatment really helped to make my hair easier to comb when it was wet. It worked like a wonderful hair detangler and I lost much fewer hairs when using this product prior to combing my hair.
This product also hydrates the hair and it worked to give my hair just that extra boost of moisture. My hair was not greasy or weighed down at all from using this treatment. My hair was much more manageable as a result of this leave in spray.
In conclusion, I would continue to use this product and highly recommend it as a way to detangle and make your hair more manageable. #gotitfree

This conditioner makes my hair look soft and healthy. I really enjoyed this conditioner. It has a slightly stronger scent that the corresponding shampoo. To me it smells spicy and powdery at the same time. It is quite pleasant and lingers in the hair after it has dried.
The consistency of this conditioner is perfect. It is not too thin and runny and not so thick that it won't spread easily. It feels somewhat different than other conditioners as I thought it felt more slippery in my hands.
After towel drying my hair I find that my comb goes through my hair just a little bit easier and thus fewer hairs come loose. My hair feels thicker and stronger when used with the corresponding shampoo. I also noticed my hair was not as dry, especially the ends of my hair. My hair was moisturized but not weighed down.
Overall, I would continue to use this conditioner and recommend it to others to try. #gotitfree

This shampoo is great for making my look healthy and strong! After using this shampoo I have really noticed that my hair feels thicker and much stronger. It looks healthier and has just a bit more shine to it.
This shampoo has a unique scent to it that I can't quite put my finger on. It smells spicy and yet powdery at the same time if that makes sense. It is a pleasant scent and is not overpowering. The scent does linger in the hair long after it has dried. This shampoo lathers well and rinses easily from the hair.
My hair feels soft after using this shampoo and the corresponding conditioner. It also helps to moisturize my hair but doesn't weigh it down in the least. Some moisturizing shampoos can make your hair feel greasy and weighed down but not this one. My hair actually had a bit more volume than usual.
Overall, I liked this shampoo but would say it is not a top favourite of mine. I feel there are other shampoos out there that cost less that work just as well for my hair. That said, I would still recommend this shampoo for the benefits I received. #gotitfree
