Thanks Chick Advisor for sending me these Neutrogena Hydro Boost Facial Cleansing Wipes at no cost!
The first thing I noticed was that the wipes are very high quality and don’t rip or fall apart. The scent is very light and not overwhelming. I used them to remove waterproof mascara and a full face of makeup... they worked great! My skin felt hydrated and smooth. I was surprised how easy it was to remove everything. I found that I didn’t need to moisturize after because these wipes made my skin super soft. I also tried it to remove residue after doing a face mask and it was excellent. I like that it is alcohol- and paraben-free and great for those with sensitive skin. This will be a very handy item to bring when travelling in the future!

I was selected as a brand advocate by @chickadvisor to test out the Dove Glowing Mango Butter & Almond Butter Body Wash at no cost and provide my feedback.
I love this body wash! I’ve been using it for over two weeks and I still enjoy the tropical scent (your bathroom smells great for a few hours after too). The combination of almond and mango is super yummy. It is very creamy and lathers like crazy. The body wash has a super foamy consistency making it very moisturizing. You only need a small amount for your entire body which is great for cost effectiveness. It is priced under $10 and available at most grocery stores. I also use as a shaving cream and it is awesome! You legs feel silky smooth every time. As with all dove products, this body wash is cruelty free. I would recommend this to anyone who loves fruity, strong smelling body wash. Thanks @dove for my new favourite body wash.

I was selected as a brand advocate by @chickadvisor to test out the Dove Mango & Almond Butter Exfoliating Body Polish at no cost and provide my feedback.
I love the smell of this! It is fruity but not overpowering. The exfoliating body polish is gentle and creamy... it didn’t irritate my skin at all. I really liked how smooth my legs felt after one use! I didn’t notice a glowing effect but it definitely made my skin softer. I think this will be a great product for the dry winter months. It would also be great as a foot scrub. One improvement I would like to see is a new design for the container. I find having a jar of product in the shower can lead to some bacteria. I prefer squeeze tubes where less of the product is exposed to the air. The container is recyclable and it’s cruelty free so that is a big plus.
Overall a great body polish with a wonderful tropical scent. Thanks @dove for the wonderful product!

I was selected as a brand advocate by @chickadvisor to test out Canada Dry Premium* Ginger Ale at no cost and provide my feedback.
This was my first time trying a premium craft soda. There were 3 types to choose from, Ginger Beer, Tonic Water and Ginger Ale all sold in glass bottle 4 packs.
The first thing you notice is how bubbly and fizzy the drink is. The taste is very refreshing and not what I expected. The ginger flavour is nice and not too strong. I loved the sweetness of the natural cane sugar, it’s balanced perfectly in this soda.
It is reasonably priced for being a premium soda and available at most grocery stores. I think it would be great to offer guests as a mix for cocktails or served plain on ice. I will be dropping off a few packs for my friend who loves rye and gingers, she will love it! Thanks @canadadrycanada and Chick Advisor for this awesome opportunity.

I didn’t think I would be a big fan of this because I love fresh garlic in most of my dishes but I was wrong!
Chick Advisor sent me this product for free to test and provide my honest review.
I used it in a marinade to make salmon on the bbq (see pic) and it was so yummy. There was no chemical or fake taste to it. One reason I will keep this stocked is it saved so much time! No more peeling garlic and slicing lemon when you’re in a rush. I also used it to make a salad dressing with olive oil, it was very tasty. My only suggestion would be to make the bottle design a bit more distinguishable from the original lemon juice. It would ruin a baking dish if you grabbed this one instead of plain lemon!
It is reasonably priced and available at most grocery stores. You don’t need a lot so it will last a long time as well!

I am excited to have the opportunity to be one of the @Chickadvisor brand advocates for Schmidt’s Mineral Enriched Natural Deodorant in Bergamot + Lime. I received it at no cost in return for my honest review and opinion.
All I can say is wow... this was the first product I tried that I couldn’t wait to share my thoughts about!
Quality:
I tested this out for more than a week and found it worked great on both my days off and when I was breaking a sweat. I like that it doesn’t contain aluminum, glycol or artificial fragrance. This is important when you are putting something on a sensitive spot like your underarms. One thing I wasn’t used to was that you need to hold it to your skin for a few seconds to warm it up. After that it glides on easy! This product is also vegan and not tested on animals.
Scent:
Here is where they get a 10/10 for me. It has a very refreshing scent, exactly like lime popsicles! It is not overpowering or fake smelling like other products. It compliments most perfumes as well. I did notice the scent wears off later in the day but the deodorant still keeps working. They have 4 other fragrances that I will be trying in the future but it will be hard to beat the bergamot and lime one.
Overall this is a great buy. I checked around and the price is very reasonable for how amazing this natural deodorant works. I wish they made a purse sized version! It will be replacing my normal deodorant and I’ve already recommended it to a few friends. Thanks Schmidt’s!

If you like homemade Caesars then Mott’s Clamato Reserve is worth trying out! I was chosen as an advocate by Chick Advisor and received the product at no cost.
I have always been a fan of the original and spicy versions of their Clamato juice so I was excited to try this new one. It is made with natural ingredients and low in calories! I made it with lots of ice and it was very refreshing with all the hot weather we were having. I was worried it would be too spicy but the fire roasted jalapeño purée adds just enough hot flavour to your cocktail. It’s great on it’s own as a mocktail too! Make this mix part of your summer patio adventures. Highly recommended.

This is a tea everyone needs in their cupboard! I tried it two ways, hot and cold... we had a heat wave in Ontario last week so I prepared the tea, let it cool down then poured it over ice. It was refreshing and not sweet like most fruity teas, great for a hot muggy day. The nights have been cooler so I wanted a warm drink but something that wouldn’t keep me awake. This tea was perfect because it’s caffeine-free. The aroma from your cup is very fruity and I wanted a second one!
The design of the tea bag is really neat, it allows the fruit pieces to really absorb into the water making a yummy, flavourful cup of tea. This would make a great addition to a gift basket for friends and family. I’m excited to try their other products.

I was selected as one of the ChickAdvisor Eco Box advocates. I received the My Clarins RE-BOOST Refreshing Hydrating Cream from ChickAdvisor in the earth month essentials box for free.
The packaging is simple but lacks some information about this product... I believe it’s due to the 15ml sample size so I checked out their website to learn more.
One awesome thing about this cream is that it’s vegan-friendly! Additionally, 89% of the ingredients are of natural origin which I look for when using a product on my skin.
The scent is very light and fresh. I feel like this would be an excellent moisturizer for those dry skin days and mainly in the winter. It soaks in quickly bit is more on the oily side. A little goes a long way with this cream too!
This was my first experience with Clarins products and I was quite happy. I think the price is more on the expensive side but would be worth it if you have dry skin. Another great feature is that it protects your skin from stressors.

I was selected as one of the ChickAdvisor Eco Box advocates. I received the Green Beaver Naturadri Antiperspirant from ChickAdvisor in the earth month essentials box.
I was pleasantly surprised with this antiperspirant! I normally don’t like the scents offered by most natural products but this one is great! It’s fresh smelling but definitely light on the scent. I would prefer something a bit stronger.
A huge plus is that it works well but doesn’t use aluminum in its ingredients! It’s vegan and cruelty free which is something I always try to purchase. Being made in Canada was another positive to this antiperspirant.
I found that it works great but towards the end of a long day I needed to reapply it. As it’s ingredients are from an 100% natural origin I didn’t mind at all. I will be recommending this to my eco friendly friends!
