This toothpaste has a nice, fresh taste. The consistency is a little gritty, but I didn't mind. The freshness lasts a while, but isn't as potent as with some other toothpastes. It also doesn't foam as much as some I am used to. It's hard to tell if...   +

The Q10 serum absorbs really quickly and is non-greasy. I've been using it on its own rather than under another cream, though I'm sure it would be great there too. The smell is a little like men's cologne, which I find strange, but it's not enough...   +

I received this product for free as part of the Chick Advisor Product Review Club. It has a nice scent, not too overpowering, and goes on smoothly. I've never used anything like this before, but was pleased that it rinsed cleanly without any greasy...   +

These bars have a nice texture, with each element standing out nicely. They are chewy and crunchy without being too chewy. They are reasonably filling, and will satisfy a sweet tooth. That said I did find the flavour pretty one-dimensional:...   +

I've never used an oil cleanser before, and quite liked this one. I enjoyed how it foams a bit when you add water, and even with my Clinique facial brush it worked well. It rinses clean and after, even in the depths of a Toronto winter (!), my skin...   +

I've used various oils on my face before, and was really impressed with this one. It absorbs fairly quickly, and my skin has maybe never been so soft. There's a light scent but I don't find it too overwhelming. It seems like excellent value! I got...   +

I didn't mind this flavour, but you can barely taste the chocolate, and I like to taste chocolate in my chocolate bars. Nice texture, with some crunch and chewiness, though, and if you want something that tasted like berry rather than chocolate...   +

For a chocolate bar this doesn't taste like chocolate at all. I found the sunscreen scent phony and overpowering, and while the bar delivers nice texture and an okay flavour, I wouldn't select it for a treat when there are so many other good options.
