Bio-Oil

I didn't believe it would work as well as it would, but bought a small bottle to try it out. I use it on scars and discolouration - like blotches from ingrown hairs on my legs and dark acne scars on my face. Use it every day (i use it at night) and you definitely notice a difference in about 2 weeks!
The first thing i used it for was burn scars on my forearms (from cooking) and they are completely gone now! Leg and acne scars remain a bit but are far less noticeable. It's pricey, but it actually works, so it's worth the cost and goes a long way!

Nutella Hazelnut Spread
Delicious treat! A little goes a long way, but it's good in many different ways - on toast, in a latte or cupcakes!! Just enough sweetness that it's not overwhelming sugar taste. To make the latte, melt a spoonful in your coffee and add foamed... +

Just enough sweetness that it's not overwhelming sugar taste. To make the latte, melt a spoonful in your coffee and add foamed milk!

I found this yogurt at Whole Foods, but have also since found them at Costco. At Whole Foods they are about $4-$5 for 4 pots depending on the flavour (vanilla, lemon and coconut are the lower prices). At Costco I found 12 pots for $9 which is great! The texture is thick and smooth - thick like Greek yogurt, but smooth like regular yoghurt. My husband suspected they use gelatin to thicken and didn't love that, but I love the sophisticated flavours and luxurious texture. -

I received this as part of the product review club and tried it the very next day! I love dry shampoo products and am always looking for the next best product. This Dove brand was highly effective, going on easily with a visible drying effect as desired. What I didn't like was the smell - the fragrance was very strong and floral. Personally I don't want a strong fragrance in my dry shampoo as I'm quite conscious of wearing too much scent. -

I use dry shampoo about once a week and am not a stranger to sprays and powders, but was disspointed with this brand. My hair didn't look worse after, but it certainly was not better. The wet spray does not seem to have much of an absorbent... +
I use dry shampoo about once a week and am not a stranger to sprays and powders, but was disspointed with this brand. My hair didn't look worse after, but it certainly was not better. The wet spray does not seem to have much of an absorbent quality which I really look for in a dry shampoo! The smell was pleasant and the price is right, but for this price or a little bit more you can get many much better products. -
NIVEA In-Shower Nourishing Body Milk

I'm a bit lazy and tend not to take the time to moisturize after my shower - perhaps on my face, but definitely not anything else! This product made me feel like i got to skip a step and moisturized quickly in the shower. the product feels nice, smells nice and rinses easily and cleanly - something i was wary about. With all the convenience I did expect one down side and the only one was that it's not quite a moisturizing as you might need with dry Canadian winter skin! -
Adrien Gagnon Decadent Fudge Nutriforme Bars
I have been using meal replacement bars as a quick and easy (read 0 effort!) Breakfast on busy mornings. This one had a decent flavour, but the texture was not very pleasant. The crispy layer was nice, but I have had many other better tasting bars... +
I have been using meal replacement bars as a quick and easy (read 0 effort!) Breakfast on busy mornings. This one had a decent flavour, but the texture was not very pleasant. The crispy layer was nice, but I have had many other better tasting bars. Lastly while the bar was enough for breakfast it did not quite hold hunger at bay through to lunch time. -

I used energex every day for a week and upon reading the description I was hesitant as I expected an "energy surge" like from a red bull or something similar. Instead, it seemed more like a liquid vitamin. I would not replace my standard multivitamin with this however as I found it inconvenient to use. I don't usually have orange juice on the house, and I tried it in water and was not impressed! -

I tried this product with the cleansing oil through the Chick advisor product club. It did not clog my porees or cause zits like some people think an oil might, but I didn't notice too much of a difference compared to my regular night time moisturizer. It was a very reasonable price, but I am not sure I'd use it again as I was a bit concerned that I was going to get oil stains on my pillow case. Perhaps a silly reason, but I didn't see enough benefit over my regular moisturizer that doesn't have that concern. -

I got to try the lipidol cleansing face oil as a free product from Chick advisor's product trials. I love the way it cleans dirt oil and makeup all in one without drying! I have oily skin and there is no concern about pore clogging or making your skin oily at all. Even my husband liked it, and he can hardly stand moisturizer, thinking it's causing zits!
I didn't Love the plastic-y smell as I've tried another brand that didn't have this, but this one is a much, much better price!
This product is especially great in a cold, dry, Canadian winter as it ensures clean skin without drying at all.
