Alba Botanica Is a great product too use on your kids as well as yourself if you need full Sun protection. It has all the natural ingredients that one loves and the application is very nice. I
t sprays on clear and very evenly so you don't have too do much rubbing into your skin. This sunscreen is water resistant as well as hypo-allergenic. I had sprayed this onto my skin and it left no residue and it was not greasy at all. I did notice that when you sprayed this on your skin it was a powerful alcohol smell too it. It defiently was not pleasant but it did subside after awhile. Im not sure why the alcohol in this product as that is known too dry out your skin,but nonetheless the smell did go away and I didn't feel any drying of my skin.
The sunscreen contains Oil peel oil, sunflower oil, almond oil, vitamin a, Vanilla, avocado oil, and Aloe vera gel. Has lots of moisturizing ingredients too nourish your skin which is a huge plus. And Zero preservativesor harsh ingredients! All natural!
I will defiently buy this again. It costed me $19.99CAN a can at Superstore.

Love love!! This is an excellent all day, long wear, nail polish that actually lasted me 5 days without a chip or peel of my nail polish! The application was not bad. It was bit thicker in consistency than I would like as it didn't spread very evenly but after a couple of applications too my nails the color did blend quite well.
I received the Blush Teddy from my ChickAdvsior Premium package and the color was very nice. A very pale natural pink color that works very well with an everyday look. It does have a very light shimmer within the color which I really like. The top coat was very nice as well as it sealed the color in just perfectly, but make sure you cap the ends of your nails with the top coat. This will prevent any premature chipping or peeling from the polish. The top coat also creates a nice shine too your nails as well. I also love the fact that you do not need too wait in between color applications for the nail polish too dry. It dries within 60 seconds which is a plus for me.
I will definitely be buying more colors very soon and recommend too others who are hard on there nails like myself. Im glad I finally found a polish that lasts longer than 1 day. You can buy the polishes for 12.99$ a bottle.

This Rice Pudding and creamy, sweet, savoury and hits the spot every time I eat one of these for a snack.
They are perfectly portioned so you feel satisfied after eating just one of these. They are made with only a couple ingredients such as eggs, milk, sugar and rice. You can tell that this rice pudding is NOT artificial tasting at all, based on the taste and of course the ingredients in the product. Simple, delicious and doesn't contain any preservatives or unnecessary sugars. I also like that these are gluten free so if you have a sensitivity too gluten this is a great snack for you. The calorie content is 130 which is pretty good for a treat. I definitely will buy this again and recommend. One thing that I wish they would add was a hint of vanilla or cinnamon. That would defiantly make this Rice Pudding taste even better.
You can buy a package of 4 for 4.99$CAN at Walmart or Superstore

I received this in my Premium Bag From ChickAdvisor and enjoyed using this moisturizer. It made my skin feel soft, refreshed, make a nice glow on my skin, hydrated it well, and brightened my skin complexion. It is a very light weight formula, that is oil-free so it doesn't make your skin shine or feel greasy which I like. I did noticed that I broke out a couple times while using it but it didn't really bother me. One thing That I wish they would change is the scent. It has a very strong artificial perfume smell to do. A nice tropical, lemon, lime, rose or lavender would be better tolerated for me. Just too strong.
I do admire that they have 98% all natural ingredients, paraben, and sulphate free in this moisturizer. Thats something that I really like and Im glad they have incorporated more natural ingredients in there product line. If Its onsale I may buy it but as of now I don't think I will unless they change the scent of the product.
You can buy this Online for 34.99$ a 60ML bottle.

I got this in my ChickAdvisor Premium bag and was so excited too have a top coat for my lipstick. I have used a couple in the past but had no luck with them and I actually didn't have much luck with this topcoat as well. The packaging is super cute, small in size so you can carry it with you, and has no fragrance too it. I wouldn't have minded a nice light citrus smell too it, but it didn't bother me that it didn't have any.
The application is quite strange. It is in a form of a small spatula, It wasn't the most easiest method of application but it did the job that needed to be done. A brush form would have worked a lot better, but I imagine it would be harder too keep clean after using different lipstick colors. When I put this on lips it was a very smooth application, but they I noticed my lipstick going from a nice shine too a matte look, not only that it dried out my lips pretty bad, and the lines in my lips were accentuated. I had no idea that I had that much wrinkles in my lips after using this product because it made them show up pretty bad. I also noticed that after it dried within 10 minutes I felt a gritty, sand feeling on my lips, as if the product just clumped on my lips. I did experiment with many different lip sticks and tried too put more of the product on and less of the product one and it still made zero difference.
I did test out the lipstick and kissed a white paper and drank my coffee and my lipstick did not come off, which is the purpose of this lipstick. So if you don't mind the gritty feeling and the matte look then this product may work for you, but unfortunately I don't think I will buy this product in the future.
You can buy this online for approx 25.00$ CAN. I have seen it at Sephora as well.

I received this in my Premium Bag from ChickAdvisor and I must say this is an EXCELLENT face exfoliator, brightener and cleanser. As a matter of fact this is in my Top 3 of exfoliators too use on your skin. The cream is very light, has tiny micro-exfoliating crystals, smells of coconut and aloe vera (which is very light in scent which I like), and contains 99% natural ingredients!
All you need too do is use about a pea sized amount, wet your face, massage in circular motions on your face and don't forget your neck area as well. I also let it sit on my skin for another minute just so my skin absorbs the nutrients and moisture of this product. Then rinse away. I have a bit of sensitive skin at time and I had zero issues with this product! I also love when you massage this on your face the micro-crystals do not disappear or dissolve. It says too use it 3-5 times a week. But I find that only 2 times a week is sufficient enough for my skin. My skin feels smoother, radiant, and looks a lot clearer in complexion. I will defiantly be buying this once my sample runs out and recommend this as well.

Becel Vegan Margarine will defiantly be a staple in my household after trying the vegan version of Becel. The margarine has a nice light taste, very light in salt, and spreads nicely on toast or melted on vegetables. I loved the fact that the Vegan Version had the exact same taste as the original version. The taste was not altered at all with the fact with it being gluten free and lactose free. This margarine tasted excellent when I made popcorn the other day, melted nicely in the microwave and I poured on top of the popcorn which created a nice "buttery" like taste.
The ingredients of this margarine is pretty good. Containing only Natural Colors and Flavours, No preservatives added, vitamins D and A added as well as the Canola and Sunflower oils. I was pretty impressed that the Vitamin D intake for the day of only 2tsp was 40%. This margarine is low in calories at only 70 per 2 tsp.
This was on sale at Safeway for $3.99CAN for the 2 pound container. I will buy this again and recommend too others. Thanks @Chickadvisor @BecelCA for letting me try this product out for free too test and review! #tryBecel #gotitfree

This oil blend from Becel is probably one of the best oils I have ever used too cook with. Precisely because the taste is light, smooth, spreads very nicely on salads and contains 3 oils that compliments each other very nicely without compromising the taste.
I used this oil with my vegetable stir-fry the other day and I notice the taste was very light and not as oily as some other oils I have used in the past. You can cook this oil on high heat without burning it and even mixing it with salad created a light dressing low in calories. I also made popcorn with this oil in our popcorn maker and our popcorn never burned and tasted just great! There is only 3 ingredients in this oil which is Canola Oil, Extra Virgin Olive Oil and Mid-Oleic Sunflower oil. Simple ingredients is what I like in a product that I consume! And at only 80 calories per 2 tsp you can make a very healthy salad dressing for your salads. I also admire that this oil is a great source of Omega-3-6 Oils, something that I do lack in my diet so this is a nice oil too use when I need some omegas in my diet.
I will defiantly buy this once I run out and will recommend this too others. I seen that you can buy this oil at Walmart or Superstore for 8.99$ a bottle. Thanks for letting me try out this for free to review and test! @Chickadvisor @BecelCA #tryBecel #gotitfree

Yum!! These are probably one of the best granola bars that Quaker makes as they taste just like a regular chocolate bar!! I love the outstanding taste of creamy caramel, nuts, granola and the milky chocolate combination. They are super chewy so you can savour the taste without having too devour the bar within a minute. I also like that they are low in calories at 140 per bar, contains 2 grams of protein, 1 gram of fibre. They do contain a tad bit more sugar than I would like at 13 grams but its nice too treat yourself once in a while. This is defiantly a better option for the kids too have for a treat than a typical chocolate bar is.
There is a couple of ingredients that I don't agree with or like such as BHT, Palm oil, Esters, Corn syrup and Glucose. Those ingredients I don't like, but I don't buy this product that often so its not a huge concern too me. I would buy them more often if those ingredients were omitted in the bars. We are trying too eat healthier as a family and really focused in what we have in our home and the ingredients labels. So I only buy when they are on sale and just once in a while.
You can buy a box of 12 for $3.99CAN at Walmart or Superstore(Loblaws).

I picked this body oil up a couple weeks ago so I can use it in my bath as I just love a good soak in my bath too unwind at night and found this product too be very nice on my skin. I added about a table spoon in my running bath water and soaked in it for about 30 minutes and when I got out of the tub the oils clinged to my skin and felt so smooth. I also used this on my legs after I shaved and was amazed that my legs didn't itch afterwards and it produced a really nice "glowing" effect on my legs. I love putting on an oil in the summer time on my skin and this would be a excellent oil for that. It rubs on very smooth, no sticky residue left behind, has a very nice light smell too it, almost tropical/nutty smell and doesn't make your skin look greasy at all. I even use this as a massage oil and it works very well. You only need a little of the product and you can massage for a good 20 minutes without needed more of the product. Glides very smoothly with no pulling in the skin from massaging.
The ingredients are awesome. Coconut oil, sunflower oil, almond oil, flaxseed oil, macadamia oil and vitamin e. Contains zero preservatives, and no artificial colors or fragrances.
I bought this at Superstore for 10.99$CAN a bottle and will buy again and recommend.
