I love this product!
My family and I, including our Labrador Retriever Reese, have been using our Go-Pro for awhile now with various attachments and mounts while hiking and riding our four-wheelers. I have been looking for a harness mount for Reese for awhile now, however, most of the ones I've seen have either seemed flimsy or very pricey, with no real options in between.
This harness is perfect for our needs, at a reasonable price. The harness itself is very soft and well made, with no stiff stitching or anything to aggravate the dog. Reese is used to wearing a harness for occasional walks (usually just a collar and leash but we do have a harness for more urban walks), so she is used to the process of putting on and wearing the harness, so there were no issues with putting this on her. It is very easy to adjust to fit her perfectly.
The first picture is taken from the Go-Pro on her first walk about with it, and as you can see, we had it mounted a little further back on her back then it probably should have been, as we would prefer the view to be closer to her neck. That being said, it stayed solid and in place, even that far back on her. The second and third pictures are from the second time we put her in the harness, with the camera mounted closer to her neck. It was very easy to make this adjustment, and also appeared comfortable to her. She moves easily with the harness on, not seeming to mind it at all, and the Go-Prop stays solidly in place, even though a vigorous Labrador head shake.
The camera did get knocked down when she climbed into the car, but I was impressed with the give it had, so that it would not snap off the mount, but bent when it met resistance. This is ideal for us, as she will be running through the woods on the trails with us and I'm sure will get it caught again.
This is a fantastic product - well made and perfect for our active family (and liked by the dog, who loves all the extra that comes her way while she's wearing it). I highly recommend it.

I received this product from Vichy & Chick Advisor for free in return for my honest and unbiased opinion.
I love this cream, although usually I prefer lighter creams. I probably would never have bought this on my own, as I think of Vichy day creams as being heavier. However, thanks to this opportunity, I tried it and loved it.
I've been camping for part of this trial period, and worried it would feel heavy as I also applied a light sunscreen while going outside. The cay cream worked with this, absorbing quickly and leaving my face feeling soft and fresh. If I got too hot and my face felt greasy, I used the Micellar Solution to clean and refresh my face and start over again.
Several weeks into use, my skin feels soft and looks healthy - I love it.

I received this product from Vichy & Chick Advisor for free in return for my honest and unbiased opinion.
I love the applicator - although it took a few tries to get the "feel for it", once I did it was easy to apply with no waste.
There is a slight scent to it, but not over-powering and not a "chemical" scent.
I'm just not sure that it did much for me. My eyes are sometimes sensitive to product being applied closely, so maybe I did not apply enough, however, I regularly applied a covering to the area and although it seemed to temporarily lighten the circles under my eyes, it did not last throughout the day.
This is not a product I will be purchasing again, although I do love the innovative applicator.

I had previously been introduced to Micellar Solutions through the Garnier campaign several months ago (also received for free from Chick Advisor), and been quite impressed with how it made my face feel - clean and refreshed.
The Vichy 3-in-1 Micellar Solution is even better. Part of the time I was have been trying this over the past few weeks was while camping, when it is always had to maintain any kind of skin care regime. Although I wasn't wearing eye make-up and can't attest to how it would work for that, It cleaned the dirt and dust of the campground of my face and left me feeling refreshed, with no break-outs during the whole trip. Usually the only time I have trouble with my skin is when I'm camping and out of my routine, so this was wonderful. I love the scent as well.
I highly recommend this product - The bottle is still about half full after three weeks of use, so I believe the value for the money is there, as well.

I received a one time use sample of this product to try, and found it to be an extra step for no real benefit. My hair felt no different after using it then it did before using it, although I do have long, thick hair and as mentioned, it was a one time use sample. However, there seemed to be no difference after using it, so my impression is that it is just an extra, probably unneeded, product. -

I have actually had to replace my bottle of this product, as I came to find out my husband "took" it to work with him to use - he is a mechanic whose hands are constantly either dirty or being washed - his nails often pay the price. I love this as an everyday hand lotion and give some of the credit for my strong nails and cuticles to using this lotion, so he decided to give it a try after washing his hands at the end of a job. So far he loves the feel of his hands, and he swears his nails aren't breaking as often. I'm told he has actually shared with other guys at work, although they are not crazy about the look of the bottle! -

I easily go through a box of these a month, if not more. They are the perfect size for lunch items, and I have never had an issue with them tearing or ripping. They close easily and stay closed. For some reason, they are usually on sale in my local grocery store even cheaper then the less-quality store brand - BONUS! I have also recently discovered that my teenage boys have been "relocating" them by the box to the shed, as they are tough enough and the right size to hold engine bolts/nuts/etc... when they are working on projects, so they are now a form of organization for the boys, as well. -

I was first given this lotion as part of a Body Shop gift basket, but Have since bought a few times myself over the years. The scent is not a favorite of mine, however, it leaves my hands hydrated and silky smooth, more so then many other brands. I tend to use it a lot this time of year, as I garden and have my hands in and out of dirt, gloves and water more often. One of my favorite features is that it seems to repair my cuticles more then most other hand lotions, as well as the rest of my hands. -

I actually searched for this product in store after seeing the reviews on here, and I'm happy to agree with the reviews. It's a fantastic product - great scent (actually my husband has commented on how he loves the scent of the bathroom after I shower with this), and left my skin feeling soft, polished and renewed. Love it! My only negative was that it did take me three stores to find it on the shelf :-( -

I bought these specifically to take on a camping trip to allow myself to clean my face with little to no mess, and they worked perfectly for that purpose. Above and beyond that, I loved how they made my face feel, even in the middle of the woods! They easily wipe off the dirt, dust, smoke and everything else that comes with a good day in the woods, but they left my face feeling fresh and as if I just stepped out of the shower. I know have these in my room as well and think that they are more then worth their price. -
