Boost Just Protein is a simple solution to your simple protein needs!
I like that this protein powder is unflavored so the possibilities are almost endless. I have added this to pancake mix and it did not even change any flavour on my pancake. It mixes very well with the batter and I can tell that my pancake was a bit heavier than the usual but it's good.. maybe that's the protein working, I have made a mango smoothie with it and it's great. It made the smoothie taste a bit creamy which for me is something I like.
There's a few things I didn't like about this protein powder. I find that it's a bit gritty. I have a Vitamix so, it kinda solved that gritty texture when I made a smoothie but when I used just a Nutri Bullet, it was still gritty. I guess it depends on what you are using to blend it with. It was so clumpy with just any liquid. It doesn't dissolve very fast so you need to put it in a blender or processer to blend really well.
The nutritional value is great in my books. it is low in sugar and low carb as well. I think it's very simple and easy to use. It made me quite full after I finished my smoothie. I think my most favorite use for this is with making pancakes or waffles.
I got this Boost Just Protein for free from Chickadvisor as a part of the Product Review Club Campaign.
Thank you Chickadvisor! :) #gotitfree

As you age, you try to take care of your skin as much as you can. You look for products that work and doesn't cost you an arm and a leg. Although this product might cost you half an arm, it's totally worth it! I am a fan of microdermabrasion and chemical peels done in professionally. These procedures are costing me lots of money. I am so happy to find this product. I got a sample from my Ipsy subscription. It sat for a long time in my bathroom drawer because I am so scared to try chemical peels/masks at home. The last time I had chemical peel, I reacted badly to glycolic acid so now I'm a bit wary of what I use on my face.
Few weeks ago, I was having bad breakouts and I was trying to do some spot treatment on my pimples and whiteheads. Even my go to acne clearing gel didn't help. I finally took a chance and use this mask. What a result! With just one use, my pimples had gone down and my skin was bright and soft after rinsing.
I am planning on buying a full size bottle of this mask. It is available at Sephora for $68.
The scent is a bit citrusy and not overwhelming. I was expecting that it will sting a little while it was on my face but it actually didn't. It is very easy to use. Just apply on clean face, leave for 10 minutes and wipe with warm, damp cloth and you can rinse it with warm water too.
I have already used it 3 times as I am writing this review and I am so excited to get this as a part of my weekly skin care routine.

It is a very good mascara but not my favorite. The brush/ wand has good bristles. It is very good for separating lashes and doesn't make my lashes clumpy. It is very black, highly pigmented. I find it a little bit to wet for me but it dries up really fast too. I didn't find any fall out at the end of the day so that's a bonus. -

I need a bit of time to get used to this cream before I start chewing my hand. The scent is a little bit too strong for my liking but it certainly smells delicious like a decadent dessert!
It does it's job though! It moisturizes my hand really well and locks in moisture. It is not for people who washes their hand frequently. I would use it before going to bed or if your job doesn't require lots of hand washing. It doesn't irritate my hand. It is very smooth and not very greasy feeling.

I bought this product from Costco. It is a bit on a pricey side but cheese has always been pricey anyway. This is soooo good. So addictive! A very good snack for those trying to watch what they eat. It is Gluten & Carb free; has 13g of protein in one serving, sugar free and no artificial flavor or additives, no food coloring and made with nothing but cheese.
It is a good topping for salads and soups. It's very delicious. So many uses. You can also serve it as tiny hor d'oveurs.. just top it with meat or a little tomato or hummus. They are tiny and you can't stop with just one.

First off, I love how this product smells. The scent is so fresh and not flowery so it's really good. It was actually my hubby who picked this and I was impressed.
This products cleans the floors really well and it can be used for any surface (laminate, hard wood, ceramic).
It leaves a clean scent and amazingly, no streaks. I have used this as well for my spot bot to clean spots on my carpet and it also works well.

I purchased this with the intention of making my own salve with essential oils. The homemade salve project didn't happen and I ended up looking for good ways to use this Vitamin E oil. I had a bad eczema flare out on my lip and chin are and anything I put on hurt so much. I thought about using this and amazingly, it worked like magic. it didn't sting at all. It doesn't have a harsh scent. it is not thick but rather the right consistency. -

A versatile beauty oil or serum. It works great on chapped lips or even exfoliating your lips. Just apply couple drops on your lips and have sugar handy and apply sugar on your lips and scrub away.
I used it to for my extreme dry hands and it was very moisturizing without the greasy feel. I have used it to for my hair and it doesn't make your hair greasy or heavy. I use it every night and my skin felt really soft. I never broke out using this so it's a bonus point for me!

I find that this Micellar water hardly worked for me. I wear makeup everyday and I was looking for a good micellar water. I decided to give this a try since it came with the gift set that was on sale for boxing day.
I wasn't overly impressed with this product after a few tries.
You are supposed to use a cotton ball or pad and saturate it with this cleanser and then wipe it around your eyes and face. It removed the my makeup but not my mascara. I tried not using a cotton pad and just put a few drops of micellar water on my palm and just apply it directly on my skin. I used a microfiber facial towel and warm water. That was the only way the makeup will get off my skin and not because I used this micellar water.
I may give it a try again. I like it that it's good for sensitive skin and not harsh on skin nor does it have a scent. I just find that it hardly works for me.

I'm only giving this mascara a 4 star because it is not a bad mascara. It is very pigmented.. very black and stayed on my lashes all day without any fall out. I find that it gave me more volume than length
If you look at the Tarte website, the product description for Tarteist Lash Paint Mascara is "Jet-black lengthening mascara for 2700% more lash volume". With my experience, it did it's job for volume but not the lengthening. It's all good though. Tarte is one of my favorite brands. I would prefer the Lights, Camera, Mascara over this one though.
The brush is a bit big for my liking but not as big as the brush from Smashbox Full exposure. Price is $33 which is a bit steep for a mascara.
All in all, it's a good mascara and I'm glad I tried it.
