I was really excited to be selected by family rated to try this product for free. However, I was disappointed to see that I couldn't use it on 80% of the floors in my home as they are wood. But luckily this product is versatile and you can use it all over the bathroom not just on floors.
I think it's great and one bottles lasts quite a while as you need to dilute it with water. It's also very affordable which is great. The scent is also nice and fresh. I'm a big fan of it for that.
For the floors I was able to use it on, it was effective and left them clean and looking new. I would recommend this to one without wood surfaces as it is a great floor cleaner. However, for me personally I won't repurchasing as I prefer to have a one and done product for floors.

I absolutely love this cleaning cream. I feel like cream is far more effective than so many sprays offered as a little goes a long way. That and I like being able to cover tough stains with a bit of cream knowing that it'll fight through it. I also love that there are micro beads to add a bit of an abrasive texture to fight off stuck on stains.
Aside from Vims regular effectiveness this product is also a bleach mixture which I absolutely love. First off, I love the smell, it smells like it's clean. It's not a suffocating fragrance, but it does have a true cleaning product scent. Which as I said, I like. That and bleach to me, means surfaces are cleaned, sanitized, and shiny.
Really this product is everything you could ask for, including affordable! I'm so happy I was selected to try this product for free thigh family rated. I really enjoyed it and will recommend it to anyone needing a new cleaning product!

Vim Cream Cleaner in Eucalyptus Scent

I'm happy that I was selected to try this product free through family rated as it is truly versatile. I love that I clean multiple different surfaces from my bathtub to my kitchen sink using only one product. I also love that it is a bleach mixture as it truly brightens everything up and makes it shine like new again.
A little goes a long way with this product, so although the bottle seems small it's actually super convenient as it doesn't taken up a ton of space under the counter and only a small bit of cream is needed for an effective clean.
Unfortunately, the only part I didn't enjoy was the scent. I give then credit for trying something unique with the choice of eucalyptus, but instead of smelling fresh like the rest of the products I tried, this smells medicinal. I'm sure those who don't like the regular smell of cleaning products can appreciate this fragrance, but I prefer the true bleach fresh clean smell of the regular vim.
Otherwise, yes I would recommend this affordable and efficient cleaning product.

TRESemmé Smooth Compressed Micro Mist Hair Spray Hold Level 2
First off, I have to say I like the size of the compressed micro mist, it's compact and easy to hold. I didn't feel like I missing out on product. I know they decided to compact the product, but it would be nice if they switched from aerosol cans... +
First off, I have to say I like the size of the compressed micro mist, it's compact and easy to hold. I didn't feel like I missing out on product. I know they decided to compact the product, but it would be nice if they switched from aerosol cans altogether. Aside from that, I do like the packaging, it's super chic.
As for the "smooth" hold, it was pretty good, but not perfect. I really like that my hair didn't really crunchy after spraying it. And even when I topped up with my hairspray, my hair still felt smooth for the entire day. It didn't make me feel desperate for a shower which usually makes me avoid hairspray. For that, I give it a major thumbs up. Unfortunately though, it could not tame some of my postpartum baby hairs, instead it made then stick together and stand straight up... Not the look I was going for.
However, that being said I would still use this product again, especially as my hair grows up and becomes easier to style. I think this is a great product for someone who, like me wants a bit of a hold, without feeling like they are covered in hairspray. So happy I #GotItFree through chick advisor. I would likely buy it again as it's affordable too and available at a wide variety of retailers.

Degree® Women UltraClear Black + White 72H Pure Rain Antiperspirant Deodorant Dry Spray

I was happy to receive this free through chick advisor as I don't typically reach for can antiperspirant or the degree brand so it was nice to try something different. However, it just wasn't for me. It's definitely long lasting and dried quickly without leaving any white marks on my tops, but I couldn't help but hate the smell. Personally, I found it smelled like bug spray and it's all I could smell after putting it on. Maybe if it came in another scent I could try it again, but I really dislike the smell. That and i prefer stick deodorant as I found the spray came out too quick and too much and the cans aren't great for the environment. And I found using a spray is slightly awkward.
It was effective to not leave white marks or turn white shirts yellow, but it otherwise isn't the product for me.

Although I don't typically use wipes to remove my make up, I enjoyed the convenience that comes with using wipes instead of my regular cleansing oil. I did however, find that I needed to use at least 2 wipes to remove my makeup. Even after using 2 wipes though, my eyeliner and mascara didn't completely come off. I didn't expect the wipes to remove my makeup as effectively as my cleansing oil, but because the package says they can even remove waterproof mascara, I put them to the test and didn't that to be true.
I also found them to leave my eyes slightly uncomfortable and my whole face tingling. I did like the scent, but I think that's likely what irritated my skin. For that reason, I probably wouldn't buy them again. For those less sensitive or looking for a convenient refreshing wipe to remove makeup, this would likely be great. They are also super easy to find at major retailers and very affordable. I do think they should increase the package size though as 1 wipe is not enough.
Overall, I'm happy I was able to try these wipes complementary through chick advisor #GotItFree and loved not having to use water to remove my makeup, but I still prefer my traditional cleanser.

Love Beauty & Planet Coconut Water & Mimosa Flower Radical Refresher Body Wash

I love, love, love the smell of this body wash. It screams tropical paradise. It definitely energizes me and makes me happy. What a fantastic blend of coconut and Mimosa flower. I love that this brand chose a unique combo that you simply don't see on the mainstream market. It feels like a luxury product but at a far more reasonable price. Yes, it's still fairly high compared to the brands it's competing with on the shelf, but I would buy it again... Especially if it were on sale. Its scent is far more natural than a lot of products I have tried and it doesn't make me feel suffocated by fragrance.
As for the effectiveness, a little bit covers a lot of ground. You don't need to use much product to get a good lather. It also left my skin feeling clean and moisturized. Overall, a great body wash. I think what really sets it aside from other brands (aside from the delectable scent) is that it's mild and not loaded with chemicals like dyes or parabens. It's also packaged in a recycled bottle which is a win for the environment.
What can I say, I'm a fan of this product and this brand. I will definitely recommend it and buy it again. I'm very grateful to have been selected to try this body wash complimentary through chick advisor! #GotItFree

I am so happy I received this complimentary through chick advisor! I absolutely love this shampoo and don't need to buy another brand again! I know bold statement, but my hair stayed cleaner longer than it usually does with other brands.
I have fine, straight, uncoloured hair, which I rarely style. I am constantly looking for a shampoo and conditioner which will leave it clean, healthy, shiny, and add some volume. So, of course I was instantly happy to read that this shampoo is made without parabens, dyes, or silicone. None of these chemical ingredients too often found in regular drugstore shampoos help maintain a healthy mane anyways.
Beauty & Planet prove that it is possible to care about the planet by using recycled bottles and naturally and ethically sourced ingredients (which by the way smell amazing! Tropical paradise in a bottle). But caring for the planet doesn't mean compromising on beauty, in fact this clean shampoo kept my hair cleaner longer than any other shampoo I've tried. 4 days after my last shampoo and it still didn't feel greasy or oily. Instead my hair continued to maintain the volume and bounce promised on the label.
I can't get enough of this product! I know it's a bit more than the mainstream drugstore shampoos, but it's worth every bit more. It's a great shampoo and brand, and I will definitely be repurchasing!!

Well I think I just found my new brand of hair products! Thank you chick advisor for selecting me to try this complimentary. I absolutely love it. First and foremost most I have to comment on the smell, it reminds me on pina coladas which are delicious! I love the combination of coconut water and Mimosa flower. It's such a unique blend and it smells divine.
Next, I have to say that this company is using recycled bottles. And really is caring for your beauty and the planet. Now as for the actual product, I am impressed. It works. I love that it's "fast rinse" so you don't have to wait for it to actual work. My hair felt amazing after the conditioner and it definitely added volume and body to it once dry.
Yes, this may be slightly more than regular drugstore conditioners but to me this is a salon quality product without all the chemicals. I certainly would recommend it and will buy it again!

Breyers delights Vanilla Bean

First and foremost, this ice cream is DELICIOUS! Although it is on the verge of almost too much vanilla. It really depends on the spoonful. Some were pure bliss while others were pure extract. If you like a hint of vanilla this is not for you. If you absolutely love vanilla then this will surely do it for you. Like I said, I personally thought it was delicious but was also shocked by the intense vanilla and sweetness.
Though there may not be a lot of calorie, using skim milk definitely increases the overall sweetness of this ice cream. Personally, I don't find advertising "280 calories" as intriguing as it's a relatively small container compared to the average Breyers tub. That and it's still ice cream. I guess if you're counting calories, it's nice to know that you can still enjoy this ice cream without compromising your daily intake... Although good luck not eating the entire thing. I also found it a bit strange to mention protein on the packaging. Ice cream is not something I think of when I'm wanting to add protein to my diet, nor do I think about it when trying to be calorie wise. So really, an odd choice in terms of marketing. I don't know who that targets, but I think it's pointless as this is not a health food.
Moving on from the packaging, in total I think there are about 10 standard ice cream scoops in the 500ml tub if you use a regular scoop which, I did as I received both this ice cream and a Breyers scooper complimentary through chick advisor. Maybe I don't have as much self control, but this equated to three servings. That being said, it's SUPER EXPENSIVE.
I received a free product coupon and yet, still had to pay. 50 cents as the coupon only covered up to $7.99 and I found it at Safeway where it was priced at $8.59. Again, yes, it's really delicious ice cream, but unless it's on sale I can't justify paying that much ($8.59) for such a small tub of ice cream. Even the ice cream you find in the "health food" or "natural" section is cheaper. It's also not the most exotic flavor so I was really thrown off by that.
Overall, I genuinely enjoyed Breyer's Delights Vanilla Bean ice cream and would certainly recommend it to any fellow vanilla lovers... but only when it's on sale. $5.99 or less and we're golden!
