I received a coupon from Chick Advisor to try Mott's Mr & Mrs T Main Tai Cocktail Mix. I saved it for a BBQ party that we had coming up and I'm glad I did! We made the Midday Mai Tai recipe that came in the included recipe book. It called for 6 oz of the Mr & Mrs T Mai Tai mix, 2.5 oz of the Strawberry Daquiri mix, 6 oz of pineapple juice, 6 oz of orange juice, 6 oz of rum and 4 cups of ice. It blended up quickly in my blender and VOILA - we had drinks for everyone! (Recipe says it makes six 6-ounce drinks)
They were a big hit and we even made another round! I like that these bottles will make quite a few rounds of mai tai's, I'm already looking forward to the weekend when we will pull out the blender and mix again.
I tried a bit of the mai tai mix on its own and it was pretty sweet but when mixed with everything it's the perfect combination for a delicious summer treat. I can't wait to try it in other recipes!

My 4 and 5 year old daughters were very happy that Mommy was chosen to review Mott's Fruitsations +Fibre Raspberry. They enjoyed the raspberry flavour but when I asked them which they liked best (we received both Raspberry & Tropical to review) they liked the tropical better. I am very happy that this product has no added colours or sugar and it makes for a healthy snack for the kids that I can feel confident serving to them. -

My 4 and 5 year old daughters were very excited that Mommy was chosen to review Mott's Fruitsations +Fibre Tropical as they love flavoured applesauce. They didn't seem to notice any difference in the texture (because of the added fibre) and they really liked the tropical flavour. They are already asking me to buy more of these and they will definitely become a regular item on my shopping list. -

I received the coupon and had a bit of a difficult time tracking down this product in store. I was excited to try it as I had been focusing on my water intake as of late and was getting tired of plain Soda Stream bubbles. I wanted something with a bit of flavour but no added sugar so I thought this would have been the perfect way to do that. Unfortunately the taste wasn't quite what I was expecting, it was almost too sharp for my liking. I did keep the cans in the fridge and had one a day to see if it would grow on me but by the time the case was empty I had decided that this flavour wasn't the one for me. Thanks for letting me try Canada Dry Club Soda Orange-Mandarin! -

I recently received Dove Refresh + Care Volume Dry Shampoo to try in exchange for honest feedback of the product.
I purposely didn't wash my hair on day 2, which I normally do, so that I could truly put Dove Refresh dry shampoo to the test. The morning of day 3 I tried it for the first time on hair that visibly hadn't been washed for a couple of days. I was surprised at how light this product was compared to other dry shampoos I've tried in the past. It sprayed as a fine mist but not too thin. The scent was appealing and fresh. It was a pleasant surprise to see that this product did NOT leave a white residue as I've noticed on my dark hair from other dry shampoos - well done Dove! While my hair didn't look freshly washed, it did absorb enough of the grease to get me through the day.
I also tried this product a few times to give me some body & volume after washing so that my updo would stay put - it works quite nicely for this purpose as well.
I would definitely recommend this product to anyone who is wanting a dry shampoo they can count on!

Chick Advisor sent me a box of Adrien Gagnon Decadent Fudge Nutriforme Bars to try out. I haven't tried meal replacement bars before so I don't have anything to compare these bars to. I first ate one of these bars when I was running short of time and didn't have time to make a proper lunch. I grabbed a bar and ate it on the way out the door. I have a big sweet tooth most of the time and was pleasantly surprised at the chocolate flavour of these bars. It was quite dense and by the time I had finished it, I felt quite satisfied - both my sweet tooth and my hunger! The bar is quite heavy and has a nice chew & texture. I've since eaten two more bars and both times I only ate it with a piece of fruit and felt extremely satisfied until my next meal time. I would definitely recommend Adrien Gagnon Decadent Fudge Nutriforme Bars to anyone looking for a meal replacement bar but I think you would need to have a sweet tooth to fully enjoy this bar. -

I've used the Adrien Gagnon Super Energex daily for 6 days now and am enjoying the results. At first I added it to my 3 cup water bottle but it was quite diluted and didn't taste that great. I took the advice of adding it to orange juice in the mornings since we usually have some with breakfast anyways and I didn't notice the flavour at all. I didn't notice a big change in my energy levels the first day but I had been well rested the night prior. The second night I only got 5 hours of sleep and was so tired the next morning. I was about to put on the coffee pot but decided to test the Adrien Gagnon Super Energex instead with a well rounded breakfast of eggs, toast & fruit.
Within an hour I could feel the difference. I wouldn't use Super Energex every day but for those days that I am busy and haven't had the best sleep the night before, I would definitely consider substituting this for coffee. I had a prolonged supply of energy levels that were consistent for most of the day. Thank you for allowing me to test Adrien Gagnon Super Energex for you and I would definitely recommend this product to anyone who is looking for a boost of energy for the day!

I am a lip balm hoarder and have over 40 in my stash right now after cleaning it out a few months ago. I counted 7 in my purse last week but the Baby Lips is the one that I will grab first when I need a quick application to hydrate & add a hint of colour. I love the feeling of it, it's not too heavy or greasy at all. And the smell is great too! The one I have is the orange tube with hot pink writing, I haven't tried any of the other ones (yet) but I'm sure they're just as amazing! My daughter's all have Baby Lips as well and they love them. This is definitely a product that my family will keep buying for years to come! -

Been a huge fan of all Saje products since they opened their location at Polo Park in Winnipeg over a year ago now. My ultimate favourite product has to be their Peppermint Halo oil, it's amazing. I use it mostly for sore/stiff muscles and rub on for a keep cooling sensation but I have used it on my temples/back of neck when I feel a headache coming on and it's taken away the pain without the use of any medication! Highly recommended, do yourself a favour and pick up a roller of Peppermint Halo to keep on you at all times! -

You get what you pay for with this product. I had laser eye surgery in 2007 and since then my eyes have been super sensitive to product. This is the only eye makeup remover I've tried that doesn't irritate my eyes. It's soothing and removes my stubborn makeup with ease on a makeup remover pad. I high recommend this product - you won't be disappointed with Lancome's Bi-Facil Eye Makeup Remover! -
