This cream smells nice and feels soothing and cooling when you put it on. What's strange is that it absorbs very quickly but leaves my skin kind of sticky - literally all day long. I thought ok, maybe because it's sort of sticky I don't need a primer on top to apply foundation - big mistake, the makeup looked horrible and rubbed off really quickly. I've used this cream for 6 days and it broke me out pretty bad, though that could be because it's a new product I'm introducing - usually I would give it at least 2 weeks but couldn't continue with this one because of the stickiness issue. Would not recommend. -
Nutella Hazelnut Spread
I love this spread so much, definitely shouldn't keep it in the house. The slight flavour of hazelnuts combined with chocolate is literally the best thing ever. I am a huge fan of Nutella, though I can agree that it's not the healthiest thing around.

I can't stress enough how impressed I am with this set of products. Originally I got a free 15 day trial pack of all 3 products (plus the peel which is also amazing!), and although it's far from cheap, in fact is almost double the price of Clinique, I ended up ordering the full size trio before the 15 days were up. It's been almost 2 years since then. My skin really cleared up and now its just the period acne that shows up once a month that I'm not sure any product can help with. It's also a lot smoother and feels and looks better. Rosacea is still there, but from bright red it's down to a very dull, manageable colour. This trio has worked better for me than some prescription gels. I highly recommend it to anyone that has had any issues with their skin. I think all their lines come with a 15 day trial pack. The full size products do last around 6-7 months each. -
Tassimo Nabob Swiss Hazelnut Discs
I am absolutely in love with this coffee! It's just strong enough and with just enough of hazelnut flavour to make this really delicious. I can literally drink this black it's so good. One of the best nabob flavours (for a tassimo machine) out there.

Lady Speed Stick Clinical Proof Anti-perspirant

I normally need stronger stuff like drysol to keep me dry, but last time I went to get some, they were all out so I had to look for an alternative. I normally use the regular lady speed stick (after drysol), so decided to try the clinical version. It was more than double the price, but I must say I am impressed. Worn at night, and then during the day for extra protection, it really does get the job done. Can't say it's drysol quality, but it works much better than the regular deodorants out there (which for me normally do very little). Plus it doesn't sting as much as drysol does and doesn't leave any white marks. -

I tried this cleanser based on a recommendation from a friend. I really like this product. It has a pleasant, silky feel to it, doesn't require my face to be wet before applying, which I absolutely love, and all the makeup really just melts under my fingers. Plus I only need less than a pea size amount. After rinsing, it leaves my skin clean and soft, and more even-toned than usual. It does eventually make my skin really dry and tight but I guess that's to be expected from any cleanser. Followed by Clinique redness relief daily cream, it does make my skin look and feel much better than anything I've tried before. -

I got to try this product courtesy of Chick advisor (#gotitfree). After trying the other bar that came in this package, the lemon poppyseed one, and absolutely hating it, I didn't have high hopes for this one. I got what I was expecting. The texture was ok, but flavour so unnatural I could barely taste the chocolate or the peanut butter. I did eat the whole thing, and it did fill me up, however I will never purchase this product as it is just awful, imo. Really glad I got to try it though, as I am searching for a sugar reduced protein bar. -

I recieved this product for free courtesy of chick advisor. I am very happy with it. It has a very nice mild scent, has a smooth silky texture, leaves my skin feeling so moisturized and smooth. It is similar to other body oils ive used in the past, but dries very quickly, leaves no streaks, and is supposedly firming. I can't attest to the effectiveness of the firming function as I haven't used it long enough to see the difference, but as far as moisturizing agent with a pleasant smell and silky texture, I give it A+ -

I got this product to try for free from chick advisor. I normally love things that are lemon and things that are poppy seed, but this was something else. I regretted biting into it on my first bite, the texture was awful so was the taste. I thought ok maybe my taste buds are off today, so I tried it again the next day.. Nope, had to spit it out, couldn't get more than a bite in. Very disappointed with the taste, and texture and will definitely not be trying again. -

I've received this product for free from chick advisor. Even though I've had it for 2 weeks now, Ive only used it once (so far). I found the smell and textured ok, but the brown didn't really match my hair colour, and I didn't really notice a difference in the look or feel of my hair after using it. Granted, ive only used it the one time, maybe as my hair colour fades a little, it will be a better match. Will update my review of my opinion of the product changes. -
