I received this product to try for free. To begin, the packaging is beautiful and it feels very regal, with the royal blue logo and the tube being almost a metal feel. I have small eyes with light and sparse lashes so I'm always looking for a light mascara that will make my eyes look awake and bright. This mascara definitely meets the 48hr guarantee and it's 100% waterproof, in fact I struggled with that part. I don't use make up remover and for this mascara you will need to be committed to using the right make up remover to get the product off your lashes, so if that's you, great, I'm just really simple in my face washing; using a gentle cleanser. If the mascara is not removed properly, you end up with clumpy/oily lashes the next day. It's just not for me. -

This eye gel had such a great cooling effect. No matter what temperature I store it at, it remains quite cool, which is wonderful on tired puffy eyes, it instantly felt refreshing. I don't have a ton of eye wrinkles but it seems to have smoothed out the fine lines around my eyes. I really liked this gel and would buy it for myself. I liked that it truly was unscented. The only thing that didn't work for me, was that I could not apply makeup after using this gel, it just didn't mesh well with my concealer and instead made my concealer appear blotchy. I opted to use it at night on a freshly cleaned face. Otherwise, no complaints. -

I was very pleasantly surprised that this unscented serum really was unscented. Often the unscented products I try have this strange oaty like smell, which this did not, it truly was unscented. The cooling feeling is nice and fresh and the serum leaves my skin feeling really silky. My only complaint is that is doesn't mix well with makeup, in the morning I apply lotion or serum first followed by my usual makeup and I found it left my makeup looking blotchy, so I prefer to use this serum at night on a clean face. But otherwise, this is a serum I would use/but. -

My family really likes these gummies, the flavour is sweet, just like a candy, but doesn't have the artificial colours and flavours like other products have. It does have a bit of a grainy texture once it starts to dissolve, but overall, the rich flavour and shape makes it really easy to serve to kids. Packs a lot of benefits in a little gummy, especially during this "cold and flu" season.

I was so happy to try a natural cough syrup, one I would be comfortable giving to my kids as well as myself. It is quite sweet, but has that true honey flavour. My kids enjoyed the taste. My only warning would be that the turmeric in the syrup leaves stains if you spill on clothes or counters, be sure to clean up quickly. -

These lights add magic to your home, whether you use them indoor or out, the twinkle in the lights is just magical. I like that the stand itself is very flexible, whereas stone other lights are stiff making them hard to work with. We have wanted icicle Christmas lights for some time and will definitely be getting more of these lights. -

I purchased this drink on a super hot day and found it to be light and refreshing. The flavor wasn't overbearing and not too sweet. I also was pleasantly surprised that the caffeine was the addition of tea extract. I don't particularly enjoy stevia so I would have preferred to do without it. I did find it quite challenging to find this flavor in store but when I finally did I enjoyed drinking it. -

The packaging of the bottle is quite lovely, for those who display their products on counter tops I have to say this one is quite pretty. The smell of batiste products is quite nice but can be overwhelming if you're applying one a small bathroom. What I liked about this product is that it didn't leave the usual white residue like some of the other batiste products I've tried and it definitely left my hair looking cleaner and more fresh the next morning. I would definitely use it again if I need to extend my hair for another day, but I wish the brand was able to offer a product without the addition of benzene. I would feel better about using this product if it had a cleaner ingredient dec. -
