I received a coupon to purchase a Dream Non-Dairy milk as part of the Product Review Club. I buy Almond milk exclusively and have tried many different brands in search of something that tasted great. This Almond Dream does not disappoint. It is well priced and tastes light and refreshing. I often use almond milk in tea and cereal and find this has a nice neutral flavour without overpowering whatever I am consuming. It is a bit on the watery side, but I have found that to be the case with most shelf-stable almond milks. I would recommend this for others who wish to try a Non-Dairy milk and will consider purchasing it again in the future. -

I recently received a deluxe sample of The Nars Velvet Matte Lip Pencil from Sephora for my birthday in the colour Cruella... and I honestly couldn't be a bigger fan of this colour. It is a deeper red, but somehow seems so natural with my skin tone. I absolutely love how this applies like a lip pencil (its chubby!), but stays on really really well. It does dry your lips a little, so having lip balm underneath and even on top is a good idea. I don't even care though because I love the colour and coverage. It stays on pretty well while eating or drinking, but does transfer, so I would love to find a product that would seal it on for extra long lasting effects!
I cannot recommend this colour enough. I have a fair skin (Asian/European mix), so it really stands out on me... but somehow compliments my skin tone so perfectly. I will 100% buy a full size in this.

I received this in a Clinique Bonus and I adore it!! I have always been a fan of Clinique skin care products and use them almost exclusively for face wash, scrub, and moisturizer. I was pretty excited to get a sample of this and I absolutely love it! I use it all the time to give my lips just a pop of colour. The beauty of this product is that it "blooms" on your lips and changes colour based on your skin tone. I love products like this because I don't need to worry about having purchased a shade that doesn't work for me. When I run out of this I will definitely be purchasing a replacement. -

I got a deluxe sample of this with my Sephora points a few months back and I absolutely love it! I was using an Origins eye cream before and when I ran out, decided to try out this sample. First of all, you do not need a lot so I feel like the deluxe sample will last me a really long time, but I am really happy with it so far! I use it every day overtop of my regular moisturizer. It is meant to brighten dark circles, and I do think I notice a difference. I mostly use it to ensure i have extra moisture around my eyes to prevent future wrinkles, but so far I am definitely a fan! I think I would most definitely buy the full size when this runs out over the Origins one I was using before. -

I received this product as part of Chick Advisor's review club... When I saw this in its package, I was pretty sure I wasn't going to like it. I tend to like a standard toothbrush without too many bells and whistles... I definitely don't like the extra rubber bristles - they just bother my mouth.
The tongue cleaner is OK, but I have used better toothbrushes. I do feel like my teeth get clean, but I think I would rather just a standard, soft toothbrush....

I received this as part of Chick Advisor's Product Review Club and I am a fan! I don't normally use mouthwash because I don't enjoy the burn (that's due to the alcohol in most brands). This, however, is alcohol free which only tingles on the tongue a bit near the end of the recommended 30 seconds after brushing.
I am a convert now and will continue to keep this in my morning and evening routine. It collects excess plaque and makes me feel like my teeth are so much cleaner - guess I will just wait how much it helps for my dentist appointment next week!

I received this product as part of the Chick Advisor Review club...and as a Brand Loyal Colgate user, I'm still not impressed.
The taste is minty, but also off-putting - almost sour tasting. It also doesn't foam/lather up as much as I would like it to. However, in combination with the CRest Pro-Health mouthwash and tooth brush, my teeth feel cleaner, longer.
While not for me, its still a good toothpaste. I haven't noticed any increases sensitivity (which can sometimes happen for me) - so I would definitely recommend it for those who are just looking for an all around decent toothpaste.

I recently received this in one of my Clinique bonus bags, and I just started to use it. I really like it because it has SPF 15 and it feels light and easy to wear. I think it will be a good transition into the spring/summer from my moisture surge lotion.
I absolutely adore Clinique - I have been using it since I was 16 - and it still works on my skin 8 years later. Love this stuff - I highly recommend anything from their skin care line.

I am a big fan of this moisturizer during the winter.
During the cold season, my skin tends to dry out like crazy, so I recently picked this up to get me through the cold, windy days, after trying some as part of my Clinique bonus. I LOVE it.
It's heavy enough for the winter, and leaves my skin filling plump and smooth! I love it... It's a bit pricey at like $40 or so, but using it twice a day really makes my skin look gorgeous, which I think is worth the price tag.
I wouldn't recommend for summer, but winter - heck yes!

I received this razor as part of Chick Advisor's Review club. To be honest, this is not my favourite of the bunch. I'm not a big fan of the attached soap bar to begin with, but I find after testing out the 5 blade razors, this one paled in comparison.
It does give a nice lather to the skin and keep me from knicking myself...but I definitely prefer the original or the Embrance... A good razor, but not the best of the "soap" razor options, nor Venus' best offering.
I'm just so/so on this product.
