I received the Cottonelle Flushable Cleansing Cloths as part of a Chick Advisor review club. The first thing I noticed when I opened them was the fresh scent. It wasn't over powering, but very pleasant. The cloths were quite wet, which is nice for cleaning, but I did feel 'damp' after using them, to the point that I dried myself with toilet tissue after using them. Overall, I was pleased with the product. The price is rather steep, as it would be an addition purchase and wouldn't be replacing toilet tissue, however, I would think about grabbing a pack or two when they go on sale. -

I received the Oral-B Crossaction Pro-Health Toothbrush as part of a Chick Advisor review club. I loved the way that the bristles seemed to embrace my teeth during brushing. The bristles weren't too soft or too firm and made for a very comfortable brushing experience and my teeth felt incredibly clean after brushing. The only thing that I didn't like about the brush was the thickness of the handle. It was too big to fit into a regular size toothbrush holder. Other than that feature, I very much liked the toothbrush, however, I likely won't buy it because I like a toothbrush that will fit into my existing holder.

I received the Crest Pro-Health Multi- Protection Rinse as part of the Chick Advisor review club. I am an occasional user of mouthwash, because I often find them too strong and I don't care for the alcohol flavour. That being said, Crest Pro-Health is neither of those things. It has a mild, minty flavour that is not overpowering. It is alcohol free, which greatly appeals to me. My mouth felt fresh and clean after using it as part of my regular dental hygiene routine. I can't say that I saw a visible difference but liked the way it left my mouth feeling after use. I would definitely buy Crest Pro-Health Protection Rinse and it will replace my usual mouthwash.

I received the Crest Pro-Health ProFresh Toothpaste as part of the Chick Advisor review club. I typically am a dedicated Colgate user but was excited to try the Crest Pro-Health toothpaste. The toothpaste has a strong but pleasant flavour. After brushing, my mouth felt clean and fresh, which ultimately is what you want after brushing. The freshness lasted for a long period of time, without being too overpowering. After five days of using the toothpaste, twice, and sometimes three times a day, I didn't see a noticable difference in my teeth, but do like the taste and way that my teeth feel after brushing. I will probably buy Crest Pro-Health again, but will likely alternate the usage of it with my regular Colgate brand, only because I feel that I get better whitening results with Colgate whitening brands.

I purchased my first Scentsy warmer after seeing a friend's. I love the fact that there are different styles to suit your personal taste. There are a large variety of scents to choose from as well.
The Scentsy warmer is a a flameless wax burner. Much a like a candle, without a flame. It uses a lightbulb to provide heat to melt scented wax, which releases a scent.
I look forward to walking into my home and smelling the fragrance that still lingers even after the Scentsy hasn't been on for a long period of time.
The only downfall is the price. I find the price of the unit itself to be expensive. The wax is pricey too, but it does last for a long time.
I would highly recommend buying a Scentsy warming unit, regardless of it's high price tag.

I tried Tide Laundry Pods after receiving one as a free sample. I love how easy they are to use...no measuring, no mess. Just toss it in the washing machine and add your laundry. It's that simple. My clothes were fresh smelling and spotlessly cleaned. The only downside for me is the price. It is a little more expensive than using Tide liquid or powder, but convenience usually does come with a cost. Overall, it's a great product and I would highly recommend it. -

I first used Downy Unstopables after receiving a sample in the mail. I opened the sample and immediately fell in love with the scent. It was fresh, yet not too strong. I used only half of the packet because I wanted the opportunity to try it with a load of my son's sports clothes as well as in a load of towels.
The afterwash scent was just as appealing as it was upon opening the sachet. My son's sports clothes and the load of towels had a noticeably fresh scent several days after wash, even though I had only used half of a sachet.
I have since purchased Downy Unstopables and will continue to use them. My family loves the fresh scent and our bedding, towels and clothes have never smelled better.
I do wish they were a little more reasonably priced, since all they really do is add a scent to your wash, not clean it, however, I have been fortunate enough to find a coupon to use when purchasing it. I will continue to use half of the amount, as it seems to provide a longlasting scent without going through the product as quickly.
I would highly recommend Downy Unstopables if you're looking for an in laundry scent boost for your clothes.

I received this product as part of Chick Advisor's Product Review Club and was very excited to try it out. I had occasionally used whitening toothpastes and had once tried another brand of whitening product, without much success.
As soon as I received the Crest 3D White Whitestrips Intensive Professional Effects I opened the box and read the directions. The instructions were very clear. The only thing that wasn't initially clear was whether or not they were to be used for 7 days consecutive days. (they are to be used consecutively)
The strips were extremely easy to apply and remained adhered to my teeth for the entire two hour whitening session.
I did feel a small amount of sensitivity on my lower teeth towards the end of the two hour period. The instructions had made it clear that this could be a side effect. The sensitivity resolved within a few hours.
The strips removed easily and I was thrilled to see that there was a noticable difference after only one application.
At the end of the seven day period, several people had commented on the difference in my teeth.
The whitestrips were easy to apply, and had minimal side effects (mild sensitivity). The results were very noticable. I'm not certain as to how long the results will last, but I will be purchasing these again.

I was extremely fortunate to win the Kobo Vox eReader in an online contest. I had previously purchased a lesser value eReader and was not very impressed with it. I am in love with the Kobo Vox. It functions as a tablet, with Wi-Fi access and comes with a huge selection of available books. The books are very reasonably priced and most importantly, easy to download. The screen lighting is adjustable, which makes it great for reading outdoors or in various lighting. The internet access and available apps for download are an added bonus. It's not too heavy to hold and comes in a great selection of colours. I'm very pleased with the Kobo Vox and am considering one for my son for Christmas. I would highly recommend this product to those considering an eReader. -
