I was very excited to be chosen to try Neutrogena's Hydro Boost Ultra Hydrating Serum in exchange for my honest review, because I've heard so many good things about it. I've tried so many hydrating serums that either leave my skin still feeling dry and tight or I end up with a greasepit on my face after a few hours. Not the case with this serum! This serum is incredibly lightweight and absorbed quickly into my skin. I noticed that my skin looked visibly plumper and more hydrated almost immediately after using it. On its own, this serum packs an unexpected mighty hydrating punch, but I was lucky enough to be able to use the Hydro Boost Ultra Hydrating Gel Cream after applying this serum, which seemed to boost the ultra hydrating properties. My skin has never felt better! This is a great addition to my skincare routine! -

I didn't expect much when I first opened this, because the product seemed to be too thin/watery to be moisturizing enough for me. My skin tends to get really dry in the winter, which is especially noticeable under makeup.
The first thing I noticed when I applied this is that it is fragrance-free, which is great for anyone wanting to stay away from fragrances. It is a very lightweight gel cream and felt very refreshing when applied. I didn't have anything to worry about in terms of hydrating abilities because it ended up being one of the most hydrating moisturizers I've ever used, and it left me with a glow that I didn't expect. Normally, my skin would look quite dry in some areas while being super greasy in other areas after spending a few hours at work in front of my computer, but I didn't experience this at all after I used Neutrogena's Hydro Boost Gel Cream. My skin stayed beautifully moisturized and glowy throughout the day. It works well under makeup, I did not have any issues at all.
I'm so grateful to have been so generously gifted with this product in exchange for my honest opinion. I will definitely be purchasing this again when I run out!

I was chosen to test the CottonTouch Newborn Baby Wash and Shampoo. I'm not sure what the cotton adds to this product, or if it's just a gimmick, but I liked that there are no parabens or anything artificially added in here. It seemed richer than the other Johnson's body wash and shampoo we were using and my baby seems to like it, so we are going to continue using it. I like that it's specially formulated for newborns. -

I was so excited when I was chosen to test Johnson's CottonTouch Newborn Face and Body Lotion, because lotion is already a part of our every day routine, and I have been using two different lotions - one for her face and one for her body. It's always made me question what's in the body lotion that wasn't suitable for my baby's face - and would I still want to continue using it for her body if it's not safe for her face? I loved that I could use this on my baby's face and her body. This was gentle and left her feeling soft and smooth. (I've been using it on myself, too!) -

I loved the way these Becel sticks were so creamy and didn't require softening before use. This product created an incredible cake, and an incredibly smooth frosting!!! However, I am sad to say that I won't be purchasing this after seeing that it contains GMOs from the canola oil. This is just a personal preference, but anyone who doesn't care about this will be ecstatic about the results you will get from using this product in your backed goods.

I received this product for free for review purposes. Although there was absolutely nothing wrong with this product (it tasted fine and worked fine when used for cooking), I'm not a fan of canola oils, specifically because most of them contain GMOs. It looks like Becel Avi Plus does as well, which, again, is something that just bothers me personally. For this reason, I wouldn't buy this again, but I do appreciate the fact that this product contains avocado oil, to up the health benefits. -

I was lucky to be chosen to try this by ChickAdvisor #gotitfree. I had this as an afternoon snack today, and it totally hit the spot. It is a bit sweet, as well as salty, so it takes care of all cravings! It's texture is much better than some other plant-based protein bars - not at all mushy as a lot of them tend to be. The grams of protein are a bit lower than some of the other bars, but I'm not complaining - 10 grams is still pretty good! And I'm willing to sacrifice a little of that for a better tasting bar. I preferred the cashew over this one, but I'd still recommend this one for anyone looking for a plant-based protein bar.

I was really happy when I was chosen by #ChickAdvisor to taste test this new PowerBar Plant Protein Bar in Cashew, Salted caramel and Dark chocolate, because I'm always looking for plant-based protein bars that taste great - there are lots of them out there that aren't the best tasting, but that I eat just because of lack of options. The combination of cashew, salted caramel and dark chocolate is unbeatable. I really loved the texture; some protein bars are too mushy, but this one did disappoint in that aspect. There was no weird aftertaste, and would be a great snack to throw in my bag for an on-the-go snack. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who is looking for a great tasting plant-based protein bar!

I was really surprised about the staying power of this one. I love the Maybelline gel eyeliner pot in brown for my lower lash line, but this E.L.F. one actually seems to last a little longer. It doesn't seem to fade even at the end of a long day and may only require a slight touch up to carry it over to a night out. For the price you're paying for this, you really can't complain! -

This is my go-to drugstore waterproof gel eyeliner. In fact, it is actually comparable to the more expensive ones you can get at Sephora. This provides major staying power!!! My eyeliner looks as good at the end of a long day as it does in the morning right after I've done my makeup. I also like the brush that comes with it, which is rare with brushes that come with eyeliner pots. -
